@WolfofEve: Oh man, that's sad to hear. But I have agree with Skymin. Nobody ever leaves permanently. Sooner or later, you'll miss us dude. Respect.

@Colony: I have always wanted to play Magic, although I have never been able to. It's not a really famous fanbase here in my country. A good roleplay might push me in starting to play the game, much like how PinkSapphire's SAO and Swift's Game of /Pokemon/ pushed me in reading the manga and watching the series respectively.

@WolfOfEve: It's sad to see such a talented and dedicated RPer leave. I hope Skymin's right and that you'll be back eventually but for now, see you space cowboy.

(Totally don't know if you'll understand that reference but I'm doing it anyway.)

@EliteBeats: I don't think dying should be as much of a problem if you keep the number of people that can sign up small so that the majority of tributes are NPCs. That way each RPer can get a good amount of killing, teaming up, and surviving done along with maybe some PvP non-lethal fights/encounters or inter-RPer alliances before it finally comes time for the players to kill each other. Unless someone REALLY wants to kill another player early on, then that's their problem.
I'll put something cool here eventually.

I have had thoughts of putting E&S down and letting it go.
I don't know if I really should or not though.
I'm having second thoughts.
I can't say I've been following Earth and Sky, but if you're finding yourself disconnected or don't have time for it - maybe it's best.

Don't worry too much - let your players know before declaring it dead/locked (I guess that's what this is). Not much else you can do! These things happen :).

@WolfOfEve: It's sad to see you go now, even if I barely knew ya. I dearly hope that you return someday, as what I've seen of you in Fire Emblem: Re-Awakening, and a lot of the other Rps has proven to me that you are an absolutely fantastic Role-player and will be sorely missed.

This may or may not be my final goodbye to you, as I do have a feeling that you'll come back.

Question time!

When it comes to Journey-roleplays, which option/s do you prefer and why?

1. Being able to pick your own pokémon, entirely.
2. Being limited to that specfic region (or a long list).
3. A choice of several starter and non-starter pokémon.
4. Starter pokémon only.

When it comes to Journey's I prefer a wide amount of options for starters (even if the options aren't actually starters) and I like a broad but fixed list of what is available in each route and city. This way you can pick a starter that interests you but nobody is going to have a tyranitar on route two.

I'd have to say 3 with rare exceptions if the choice fits well enough and the SU is good enough/fits as well. And other than that pretty much the same sentiments as gimmepie, after all certain pokemon are only found in certain places as a rule except for special situations.
"Ever looking forward, ever thinking back. Everywhere you've been, everyone you've met was another step on your path, shaping your future even as they become part of your past. One must never discount the pieces that have made up your journey until now but to lose yourself in them would be equally great folly, instead let them hoist you up, carry you on until you find the strength to walk for yourself. So it is that I continue towards that endless horizon. Ever thinking back, ever marching forward, inexorable as the history that brought me down this road. This Lonesome Road."

I prefer having a choice from the three standards starters of the region and some choice Pokemon from the said region. Gives enough diversity to keep the interest and not too full to be pretty chaotic.

I'm just stopping by again to let you guys know that

Midnight: A Darker than Black RP, Pokemon: Journeys through Novia as well as Naruto: A New World (an RP I am co-gming with JNathan) all still have some room available to those who may be interested in joining.


Also, am I the only one who follows the RPA's more closely than the Academy Awards?

Mmhmm. That's practically what my answer would have been. I think it's just boring to have only three. I mean, if you did that, you would practically have a bunch of people with the same Pokemon. But if it's any Pokemon, then some people may be OP or you would just have too many to keep track of.

Actually, I had forgotten the Academy Awards existed until you mentioned them just now.

I would just like to note I meant 3 on swifty's list, not 3 starters, I like variety too, but with well defined limits and only having a starter that's NOT on the list if the SU is good enough and it is explained why well enough.

First Fallout, then Wolfy leaves, and now Earth & Sky...
Let it be known that the Dark days of RPC have now begun...

@Swift & All others who replied. I like having several options -but not to many, like, 10 top, I guess-, but I'm not against having a Pokémon that isn't considered a starter in the region its set. As long as it's something reasonable and no Pokémon are OP :3

@gimmepie... What are these "Academy Awards" you talk about? I'll always be a RPAs fanboy! :D

Mehh... don't worry guys... I know WolfOfEve just as well as my own brother.

He will return... maybe not now, maybe not tomorrow, maybe not next month... but he will return ^^

Talking about Journey RP's ... I like the ones with new regions the most. I haven't joined one unfortunately because i'm too busy with other RP's c'; I might join one in the future.

SwiftSign- New event?! Spleeeeeeeeeee!!

yeah guys!! take a little bit of your time just to get some votes in because every vote counts!! your one vote could turn an entire table!!

with swifty's question, I prefer being able to pick from a small list. that being said, if I get to pick from any Pokemon ever, I try to pick something different and not just like "HAHA I GOT A CHARMANDER YES!!!!"

yeah chumps, keep your eyes peeled its gonna be GREAT!

oh and welcome back guys! good. to have you back :)

Wolfy left...The Dark Days are truly here. We must band together, we strong many. Surely one hero will stand above all and claim the title of savior. The question is....Who will it be?

aaah don't be ridiculous d: if anything, activity is really picking up here! it's actually making me real happy seeing the place really going after a long while of slow activity. so if anything we are pushing through the dark days and into the next era!!

but if anyone's gonna be a saviour, pretty sure it's me or swifty ;) or Supervegeta

I hope I'm not the only one who does this, but who else goes through the Lounge and looks at the old RP's they've been in to get the nostalgia?
I did that the other day :) I was looking through my old SS Anne thread, oh the memories.

Nice to notice there are some of the same people around now as well! :)
