ONCE you were living your life - good, bad, perfectly average - and the next your reality was invaded by an alien force on the hunt-- for you. Luckily, a stranger offered a way out. You accepted.

NOW there is a light above you. It casts the numerous chambers of the nesting deck in a soft broken light - including yours. There's a tube connected from the chamber to the base of your skull, but that's not what the splitting headache's from. Push past the veneer of pain. Behind it is knowing - that you're not where you once were, that there are others just like you in the neighboring chambers, and that you are not alone..

Welcome to Station 72. You’ve joined the ranks of the Nest. Nominally a peace-keeping force, the Nest is required to be strong and fit enough to counter balance forces of destruction in the multi-verse. All alien members of the Nest (that's you) are implanted with a symbiotic organism. The symbiote connects with the mind and body of its host, enabling the host body to gain superhuman abilities with which to further their cause. Over time these abilities can be strengthened by solidifying the connection between host and symbiote - but be warned: knowledge and power comes at a cost.

The closer a host is to the hivemind of the Nest, the less of an individual they become.

STATION 72 is a pan-fandom space opera RPG questioning the nature of individuality and its role in the pursuit of a greater multi-dimensional good. It focuses on team building, close interpersonal relationships, and developing shared skills. Strong themes include shared experiences, the meaning of individuality and identity, psychological transformation, and some existential horror.

APPLICATIONS are currently OPEN.

What's the craziest reason for calling you've gotten?

who the hell drew that mess? the art is shit and so are the outfits especially salald's

Anons familiar with star stuff, are there any websites I can use to calculate days celestial alignments occur on? Like when x planet is in the 5th house with y planet in trine or whatever. In general any resources you might have on that would be super helpful

I'd google it myself but I'm not sure where I'd even start looking that up

want to cam for free again

i wanted to like this game, it seemed like exactly the sort of thing i'm interested in, but the vita version is terrible. it has horrible framerate and crashes every 10 minutes. not to mention all the battle animations lag.

what do you see people get wrong most often when writing jewish characters? feel free to answer about rp characters or characters in mass media.

just lost my smut virginity

Reposting this from the last post

Game type
Cyberpunk fantasy with some sol (I say sol because they won't be fighting 24/7)
Canon characters only (maybe OCs)

Game Setting
The game would take place on a planet in the center of all the known multiverse with large cyberpunk influence (https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ldcvoR3O1Dk/maxresdefault.jpg). After a great war between 13 angels and demons millions of years ago tore the universe into billions of multiverse pockets, the force of the final conflict was so great it scattered the souls of the warriors into those multiverses. The soul pieces then lived out another life in that universe.

The story would begin just as the souls were called back to the planet. The world would have a mixture of aliens, non-humanoids and cyberpunk technology. Players would be able to influence the world to either side with the angels or demons in the upcoming wars. Different cities would have different requests and technology. Player plots would be highly encouraged.

Each side would also have a home. The angels' would be in the clouds as a floating city, the demons would have an underground city near the world's core.

Characters arriving would show up in their respective homes. We don't want a set rule that good characters need to be angels and villains demons. Characters could find out they were actually part of a demon and having them slowly become corrupted, or villains could find out they were part of an angel and begin a path towards redemption will remembering all they did in their other life. You could also just keep the status quo with your character, but we figured giving the possibility of corruption or redemption for characters would be interesting for players to toy with.

TLDR; Dark cyberpunk technological world to crash with demons and angels and let players fight each other in a large world playground.

Network
All characters have a built in cybernetic communicator that is directly wired to their brain. New functions would be given during the game as patches and upgrades. Characters could become more cyborg if they'd like too.

Powers
All characters would start out as either a basic angel or demon including halos, horns and wings, and have the possibility to move up the hierarchy based on quests, time in the game, going beyond the main activity required each month, etc. Ranks would have increased powers and physical appearance (Archangels would have four wings, Principalities would have six, Powers would have their sphere powers increased and so on. Nothing set in stone yet. Demons would have the same ranks, but based on the positions in hell like Archduchess/Archduke, Mayor, Prince/Princess, Lord)

Powers would be based on their original angel/demon patron. We still haven't picked all of them yet, but as examples characters that have a piece of Gabriel's soul could have powers based on life, Nuriel would have powers based on fire, Beelzebub's soul pieces could control insects and poisons, Asmodeus have powers based sexual desires and lust. We'd add powers not traditionally associated with the angels and demons to even it out.

Characters who already have powers would get to keep most of them (anything not game-breaking). Characters who have no powers would gain additional angel/demon powers to compensate. We'd like to let players have fun without feeling too restricted.

We'd also allow a lot of creativity for players designing their character's wings or overall looks. All of these would be allowed:

We're also thinking about a sort of refusion system where characters that have pieces from the same angel or demon souls could join together for short periods of time for additional powers and appearance.

Characters would all get a demonic/holy weapon. It would be tailored to the characters and we'd encourage players to get as creative as they'd want. No limits (giant gun? holy car? demonic sword?) Characters could also install more cybernetics on themselves and become more cyborg than human.

Non-human characters
We would like these to be acceptable, but characters too large will need to be sized down to fit with the other characters. AI characters or those without a physical form would get a cyborg body. Robots would be fine.

Game size
We're not sure how many people we can handle, but lately very few games end up growing big enough to be large enough to worry. If we'd somehow get big, we'd either cap it at 100 characters, or making the application process a lot harder than other games. We could do both as well.

Game speed
The aimed tagging speed would be medium - fast, with a 30 post count per month in at least three logs/posts.

HMD
Mandatory HMD, especially since characters could be redeemed or corrupted and that may change their personalities over time.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Anything you'd like to change before you'd be interested?

i'd recc the ps3 version, yeah. though i think they eventually released a patch for the vita one?

it still chugs like a nightmare if you rotate the camera at the start of a mission though

I'm so sad that Speedstar is confirmed to actually exist and not just be a figment of Mitsumune's imagination.

sometimes

i only did pics on 4chan tho. the shift to gifs and webms are part of why i stopped tbh

This is a great question! I think my answer would have to be that jewish characters tend to be made into extremes, in that they're either SUPER JEWISH ALL THE TIME WITH ALL THE STEREOTYPES (even when the media itself isn't trying to be offensive) or alternatively the only way you know the character is jewish is that they celebrate hanukkah instead of christmas in the winter. Of course jewish experiences vary widely, but for a lot of jewish people our culture and heritage inform our daily lives in much the same way it does for any other ethnic or cultural minority, so somewhere in the middle of the two extremes would be a lot more accurate.

In rp I rarely see jewish characters, but the few times I have the main issues have just been the muns trying too hard. Research is great, references are great, but when you go too far and start using intra-jewish terms incorrectly (think when someone goes too far playing a Japanese character and starts using Japanese slang they don't quite get, especially when it isn't necessary) it starts to be a problem. Also unfortunately I've found that some muns get uncomfortably close to fetishizing their character's judaism (usually the religious aspect) which is awkward to say the least.

http://www.configurationhunter.com/astrology-tools/planet_aspects

that might help with the trines and such; you'll have to look up what angles go with which things because I don't remember past conjunctions being within 8 or so degrees. There are a few other tools on that site that look like they'd be useful also, but for finding planets in certain houses this might help:

http://www.sunsigns.org/tropical-astrology-planets-and-houses/

Remember that planets are in different houses at different times of night combined with different times of the year. Around dawn, the first house matches the sun sign (so someone born in late July would be a Leo, and if born at dawn their sun would also be in Leo and Leo would be the first house.) It then moves around from there.

For further searching if you want to try your hand at it, things like trines, squares, etc are called aspects in astrology.

Hope some of this helps!

bless this thread

Just looking for general advice, really. Things players tend to miss? Things to think about?

That's really not the only factor. I mean, yes, it is absolutely true that it is a factor, but people need to take the shit in the article into account too.

I dieted off and on for most of my life and did terribly at it in part because of the psychology -- I'm not at all denying that was an issue. I finally got my shit together and lost 80 pounds, and am now at a healthy weight for my height (even on the skinny side). I have been for three years. However, living on a normal, healthy diet (i.e., not calorie restricting, but eating the same as other women my size; probably in the range of 1500 a day), I started to gain weight back. I've dropped 10 pounds again going on an intensely restrictive diet and am coming to terms with the fact that if I want to stay at this weight, I'm going to need to keep being pretty hardcore about it, because my body still thinks I'm at 210.

tl;dr: As one of the few former fatties who has succeeded, it is still physically really fucking difficult.

Considering the thread on the last page.

I lost about 60 pounds over the course of 2012. When I started, I was about 195. At my heaviest, I was ~215. I've kept the weight off since 2013 and weigh 135 today (literally, it was 135.8 on the scale this morning).

AU, go!

if you gain weight at 1500 calories then, clearly, that's more than your body requires. that's fine. people have different bodies that need different calorie amounts per day. eat less than that and you will be ok

which just goes back around to the very thing that has always been said

Congrats, anon! Did you find that changing your diet or changing your exercise routine played more of a role in your success, or was it both or neither?
