generously pack butt with peanuts & carrots

Rundown: [community profile] 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.

there's nothing to look at anyway, unless you count the endless tl;dr of the info pages. test drive's a ghost town.

looking through it all, i can tell a lot of work was put into it and i really do hope it takes off.

for all the people wanting a high fantasy game: here you go! don't let it die before it opens.

They probably should have delayed opening the test drive at least a week, because there's a LOT of information and it's very dense. I'm a little concerned that by the time people figure out what they want to do with their AUs, the test drive will seem "dead."

I plan to app, and I hope it succeeds. We really do need an AU option. There may be a little too much worldbuilding, though... it's kind of a slog to get through, and it's hard to tell what's actually relevant.

From what I've gathered, it's take what you want from it, because as long as you know the key notes you can basically paste canon and I already know some folks will.

I can't deny waiting a bit on the test drive though just so it doesn't appear dead

potential player here and yeah, I'm definitely gonna be pasting canon with my character, just swapping out bits that are thematically appropriate. with AU games, you don't have to use EVERY aspect of worldbuilding, just pick the one or two things that would be useful for your character and work around that.
