You speak truth. I don't cry unless I'm faking it (I didn't cry when my Grandfather who was more of a Father to me than my real one (but that's not too hard, you know what I mean though, he was like a Dad to me), but I did when I acted on cue without issue, strange) Clannad was just too sad though, I loved it, but seriously it was goddamned sad.
Never underestimate the sex appeal of "danger" during my wild year following my discharge from the Army (bad surgery) I got more girls by being an asshole that constantly got into fights, occasionally dabbled in mind altering substances, started trouble, and said whatever I felt like saying. I had balls of steel and a grudge against the Army for fucking up my plans for my life. That got me women, several of them who went for my bad streak. I was a bastard and strangely they went crazy for it. Eventually my easy-going nature returned, I became more agreeable and started acting like a nice guy again, the women disappeared faster than my Gin reserves when I want a martini or 12.
Met one? I've had the misfortune to date several... get stabbed with a pen? Check. Get hit with a bat? Check. Get pushed in front of a moving car? Check. Have the police arrest me for "rape"? Check (I proved my innocence, crazy bitch tried to send me to jail for breaking up with her). Have a knife pulled on me immediately after sex? Check. Have a knife pulled on me DURING sex? Check (I immediately lept for the door and went into the snow bare assed) if you had my life you'd avoid yandere like the plague. I was lucky (well, honestly unlucky), point is yandere is some scary shit. I was never afraid of al Qaeda after the girls I've been with, fuck terrorists don't have shit on them...

um... you would live with her ex-fiance? O_oIf you're just looking for sex and nothing more, go ahead, but if you want a nice relationship, you need to find someone else, or find a place to live
I wouldn't be, but she sure as hell isn't moving into my apartment, even if she didn't have a kid. No room in my apartment and my roommate sure as hell wouldn't want a kid ruining around.

Spoiler:
If this is going to reflect real-life, then there should be the option of non-"resurrection". But, the doctor should not be immortal, if the doctor dies, so does all of his knowledge to "resurrect" someone, unless the doctor decides to pass the knowledge to someone else before he dies. It would be the decision of the greater consensus among the alive players whether or not to revive the fallen player. Raiding a medical depot should always happen, whether or not a player dies, as medical supplies are always a necessity.
This is just my opinion.
Though I agree with you if we were to raid for every supply we ever needed there would be no time to play between gathering supplies. Part of it is assumed and part of it is just excluded in the spirit of it being fun. Also resurrect is a bad word for it, the doctor would stabilize the patient, then sedate them and keep them in a controlled coma until the supplies to effectively repair most of the damage dealt and resuscitate the player. If it's a mortal wound like a bullet in the ol' noggin then the doctor can't save them.
I knew resurrect wasn't the right word, so I put it in quotes. But I agree with you then. The doctor stabilizes them, until the supplies come to officially bring back the player. And I agree with there being certain situations where no one should be revived.
I still think that there should be a greater consensus among the alive players to decide whether or not to go get the supplies for the "downed" person.
That was my intention. If you want to kick someone out wait until they die, then just don't get the supplies.

So here's my question. There's a girl who evidently wants me, however she's got a kid and lives with here ex-fiance who happens to be the father of that child... I'm not so sure if her personality is exactly what I'm looking for (or even that close to it... I don't mind it, I just don't love it so much). The positive side, dating after a long dry spell, sex (probably, it's not the pinnacle of importance for me, but it has been almost a year), stability (people with children who aren't wildly irresponsible tend to stay in relationships), and the convenience of having a girlfriend. The negative side, LIVING with ex-fiance, CHILD, and the potential problems that could arise from working with her and daging her... If you were me, what would you choose? (By the way I do freight and am a former soldier, plus I frequently get into bar fights, so fighting isn't a concern of mine, just the pain in the ass of dealing with him is my concern)
The chain of command is mostly there players, however because Jon (Boyd) is never seen, his voice is never heard and almost nobody knows what he looks like, there needs to be a few people who are messengers. By the way Boston was a good idea, I'm also going to include Philidelphia for good measure. There is only one immortal dealer simply because there always has to be at last 1 source of weapons, everyone else is just as mortal as the players. For the cost of resurrection, how's this, the remaining players must raid a medical depot to get the necessary supplies. This will serve 2 purposes, 1, to make the death of a fellow player an inconvenience to the others (making them work together to prevent any deaths) and to give players a way of "voting off" other players (they can choose not go do the raid and keep the player dead). The doctor would have to be immortal... or I could let them kill him and create the opportunity to have a perma-death scenario, when they must what a new character if they die... opinion?
I kicked Chris's ass and he called me literally crying when you cheated on him. It was fun hearing his sad voice, perhaps that's why you were such a fucking monster. Good to see how you haven't changed.

Rise told me to come look at your game and I noticed a few problems.Firstly....why is Boston not included? Really.
The name Boyd sounds really familiar.
Ok now to the game mechanics problems.
Killing off players is not going to work unless you have a much larger RP community here than I think you do. Character death is usually enough "punishment" as is needed. (As the goal of an RP is not to punish failure and there is no need for time wasting mechanics like in video games.) What you'll end up with is either being too afraid to kill off players even when they should be dying or you'll just be left without the people most likely to care about your game. (As typically the people who care most about a game are those playing in it, not those who aren't.)
Giving your NPCs plot armor to the point of telling your players they can't kill them is ridiculous. That's essentially telling people they can't play the characters they want. Now, you're free to have them fail if they try anyway but, you might want to strongly consider letting some or all the NPCs be killable. If you have immortal NPCs but, not immortal players it's somewhat like you're just writing a story that the players can't control. If people want to play in a story they have no control over....well that's what video games are for.
Sorry for the delay to respond I've been busy making adjustments to the concept in general, however your input is noted and I'll definitely implement quite a few changes which you pointed out. The NPC immortality only allies to the ones that are absolutely necessary, only 5 out of the dozens I already have drafted up, but if they die players will be cut off from supplies and a chain of command. As for player death, I'm only concerned with continuity, however if you have a solution (like an NPC doctor capable of essentially resurrecting characters) I'm all for it and I'd like to let players finish the game with the characters they started with. The name Boyd shouldn't be familiar unless you work at a publisher that rejected one of my books (as that's my pen name). Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated, and it would be preferable if you could help me iron out the issues by Sunday, when I intend (however probably won't due to coordinating logistics) to start up the RP. Thanks for your input and thanks in advance for your help (assuming you do help me)
it.

Oh that reminds me, tomorrow I'm going to be out all day, Saturday 7th.I go back to my barracks for an opening parade, introducing new recruits and whatnot before we actually go back to work, Wednesday 1st January. So, to be blunt, I hope we don't start anytime soon. I wouldn't want to miss out on the beginning of this RP.
Then let's try to get started Sunday. Discuss amongst yourselves a good time and Kierova_47 as essentially my liason Pm me the results and I'll flex my schedule around it.
"Son... there is only one true solution to the issue, study hard, join a sports team, get good friends, become a model student, then find out where he wants to work and what he wants to do. Become successful, invest wisely, save money and maintain your friendships, when the time comes become a person of influence at his job, then constantly remind him who is coming out on top in life, talk about your gorgeous wife (or good-looking life partner, who am I to judge), your expensive car, nice house, plans to see the world after retiring, then leaving that job to get a better one dismissing the company as "going nowhere" and become more successful. Find out where he drinks, then "coincidentally" show up, order top shelf drinks and offer to buy a few rounds. Use that time to him about your successes in life to have him see the failings in his own. He'll notice that you're a nice guy and hatred yourself for not being your friend. The best revenge is to thrive. It may not always get the level of revenge you may have wanted, but in there and you're better than that kid so who cares?"
I would say this while sipping a Scotch on the rocks and smoking a cigar.

I actually wanted to know what it meant ages ago as well, so thanks.But it sounds really shit.
Yes yes it is
I used to think it was cool, then I grew up... it's a childish place on the internet where people go to take something humorous, then beat whatever joke or what have you so far beyond death that it's just sad. Anonymous is just an idiot who thinks 4Chan is still cool. How pathetic it is anymore would be funny if it weren't so sad.
British accents, however not the over-refined ones or the jumbled mess that some use (like crazy hobo talk, not slang) somewhere in the middle where it would sound fancy to the typical American Southerner, but sounds conversational yet different to most other Americans (such as myself). The other accents I fancy are strangely German accents, and people who speak with a sardonic drawl (not to be confused with a Southern drawl, just a Faction, sarcastic method of speaking I consider an accent).
Ones I don't like, American Southern, Midwestern, or New England. New Jersey accents are offensive to me being far I'm native to that state and I don't sound like a fucking moron. There are others, but in the interest of time I'll skip them.

I've heard a lot of "when is it going to start messages, to address all of them at once, as soon as we iron out the posting schedule to so something that works for all the players or at a minimum a majority and working around the rest. I'm concerned about leaving players behind. Hopefully ironing that out will take long enough for me to no longer be sick, but if not then I'll keep along barring any excessive visits of my face to a bucket... I'm still going to work though so I'll keep on posting.

((Does that mean I can't be an officer??? As the strategist I hope to be in the officer list.
As I said, I'm in GMT+8 and I'm working so i might be slow. I hope you'll at least put up with me. If not, I can just quit before this starts, although it'll be too bad since I can join.....))
Tell me why I should make you an officer in a PM, chances are I'll grant it.
