All the pretty little anons

[rpanonmod]

Rundown: rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

LOST CARNIVAL: a transformation circus game

[ringleaders]

You earned yourself a debt. There are a lot of ways to do it. Maybe you played a game of chance without paying, and then lost. Maybe you watched part of a show through the curtains of the Big Top without a ticket. Or maybe you’re one of the rare few to seek out the Ringmaster by choice, to see what this strange new world has to offer. Either way, you end up with a job with which to pay the carnival back, and a contract. For a year and a day, you’ll travel with the carnival, given work to match your skills. You’ll see the multiverse and help to bring wonder to its various inhabitants. You’ll meet new people, discover new passions, and change in ways both physical and emotional. And after that... the Ringmaster vows to return you to the precise place and moment you left. If, of course, that is what you still want. Sounds like a good deal, right? Either way, it doesn’t really matter what you think of it at the moment. The Ringmaster has decided to give you this opportunity, and you had better make the best of it. As you’ll soon learn, sometimes what goes on backstage is more complicated than it seems, and a carnival that can travel through worlds can also earn itself some powerful enemies. Lost Carnival is a panfandom game centered around the activities of a mysterious carnival, capable of travelling between dimensions, and bringing a motley crew of indentured employees with it. Major themes include the mental and physical transformations that come with being exposed to the carnival’s faerie magic, as well as the dangers that come from meddling with other worlds. The game is likely to run for a couple years, and is intended to have a flexible and free form meta plot that encourages contributions from players, and will balance carnival slice of life with more involved and dramatic plot arcs.

PAIRINGS YOU WANT TO PLAY

MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

Looking to play out Goodnight Robicheaux and Billy Rocks. I'm comfortable playing either but would probably handle Goodnight more readily. Up for either psls or memes; probably something pre-movie or thereabouts if not then any time during or something canon divergent.

[(Anonymous)]

I think there was a thread about this in a past post somewhere, but I can't find it anymore, so here goes.

Meme anons, when there are multiples of the same character on one meme, which do you choose to tag? Alternatively, what would turn you off from tagging a journal in favor of another journal for the same character? If you are one of the multiples in such a situation, would you go ahead and toplevel with the likelihood of being, let's say, the fourth Captain America on a page in a meme with many pages, or wait until your toplevel can be on the next page?

I'm just curious because in the past week, I have seen (1) two journals for the same character played by different players who posted on the same page, consecutively, and the later-posting player deleted their toplevel to comment on another page; (2) a canon love interest A for a character B who was met with two separate B journals toplevel on the same page, where A seemed unable to decide on which B to tag, and instead tagged another canonmate instead of either.

i play a lot of characters that everybody else plays. i also used to play steve regularly and was often in exactly that scenario you described. i still post. i don't care. it's a meme. people can tag me or not.

if i'm looking to tag someone and there are a couple options to pick from, i decide based on whether i've seen them and their play style around. if not, i check their journals to see if examples exist. if i have no idea who they are and there's no writing samples to distinguish them, ngl i judge them on their username, icons, and journal setup.

if the username has a bunch of underscores, the icons are all blurry or not 100x100 or are gifs and covered in dumb text, and the journal's got the default layout, i'm not tagging that one. in my experience, people who care about what their journal looks like tend to write better tags. if it's something like a texting meme, i don't care which i'm tagging, but for a thread with substance, i don't want to write a three paragraphs of setup, instropection, dialogue, and action and get something back like:

[He turns around and smiles. There's his friend!] Hey buddy.

in your examples, [1] kind of seems like a baby and i don't really understand what you're saying about [2]. maybe A didn't want to tag any Bs and preferred the other canonmate. if i was playing A and didn't want to play A with B, a whole page of Bs wouldn't make me more inclined to tag them. i'd tag who i wanted to play with.

basement dwelling anons, do you prefer to allow spiders that sneak into your home stay to deal with other bugs that manage to invade, or do you get rid of them?

Spiders are welcome to come in to my home and stay as long as I don't have to see them. If they come into my sight, they are getting smushed.

How do you go about finding games on tumblr? Every RP directory I've found lists games on sites like jcink and proboards.

[(Anonymous)]

step 1- think of a relatively well known and loved actor or actress, preferably white, but not necessarily so.

step 2- search them on tumblr, through the old way of looking through the tags is often easier.

Boom, you'll eventually run into a few ads.
