This roleplay will be events-based. These events are mandatory, but not necessarily for active participation. Confused? This means that you don't have to keep up. The events will NOT be a hidden activity chec, nor would require you to have a thread in a designated "event room". Instead, the events will take over the entire roleplay. This is our fun little way of getting you to roleplay and work with plots thrown at you.
Still a little confused? Let's break it down for you:
The event will take over the entire rp.
All of the rooms will be affected.
This means that the chatroom (a.k.a. the lounge) will be part of the event too.
Read the recent announcements for information.
The events are just a way to change up the environment of the roleplay every once in a while.
Events will eliminate boring conversations and give all members something to talk about / roleplay with.
In the past edition of the roleplay, we had a Murder Mystery Event. Many characters participated in solving the murders by working with one another. Everyday for an entire week, the admins released clues, news reports, and official autopsies from the medical examiner. There were a few participants who were essential characters in the event. Some members voluntarily rolled a dice to determine whether they'd be a killer or victim. The chosen killers schemed gruesome scenes with the admin.
We can't really say if we'll have another Murder Mystery Event on the way, but we can promise events that are just as fun and interactive.
Here are more examples of what we can do:
Potlucks, camping trips, house parties, bonfires.
Murder mystery, alien invation, time traveling, supernatural, etc.
Overall, the goal is for you to grow your character, like they are going through actual life experiences. We want to give you something to work with. We want to see how your character reacts in whatever situation they're thrown in. Ultimately, we hope the events have an impact on your character's story.
Again, we do not expect you to pump out large paragraphs and long threads. We just want you guys to interact with one another and actually roleplay, rather than going back to the old habits of mindless (ooc) chatting. These will be roleplay-wide and not confined to a single event room. These again, will take over the entire apartment (including the neighborhood) and the tenants within it.
Disclaimer: We are aware that there will be instances where you and your characters will feel left out of the loop and not caught up with the chaos of the events. This is completely okay. It does happen, since most of us have lives outside of the internet. However, when you are alone, refer to the recent announcement and feel free to have your characters ask others. With that said, for anyone caught up, please keep your peers up to date.
If anything, it's like art imitating life: someimes you have no idea what's going on. Have your character ask around. Tell them you have no idea what the hell is happening because you've been busy. If you don't wish to participate in the event, it's okay. You can go at your own pace, just as if your character would be busy doing something else.
The main point of this roleplay is for you to write together. Build beautiful (or tragic) stories with one another. This place is for you to build whatever you'd like in this Sandbox.
You're only ever limited by your own imagination.
Love, the Admin team.
