Recruitment: Puyallups, [Closed] Slow and steady pbp Options Track this topic Email this topic Print this topic Download this topic Subscribe to this forum Display Modes Outline Switch to: Standard Switch to: Linear+

[Redjack]

I run several game threads with an average post of once per week, but run for years. This rate is too slow for many players to keep involved, but for those of us who usually post on a scheduled day this works well. Please be sure that this rate appeals to you before asking to be considered. Players who disappear during the *probationary period* find their characters meet with unfortunate accidents or simply get shot in the face, whisked away by elemental or whatever threat happens to be handy. Conversely, players who remain steady are rewarded with a rich, long-term game. Vacations, accidents, Internet connectivity issues occur. If you show us the common courtesy of letting us know when issues occur, we are very understanding. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Currently there are two openings. Skill definitely missing are spell casting. B&E would also be useful as well as some basic combat skills (combat monkeys will probably be bored quickly). The team currently consists of a hacker/face and rigger. I prefer well rounded characters to one trick ponies. Characters who fit the environment will be given higher consideration. If you wish to be considered, please submit a concept first.

As you think through a character, shoot towards 390bp. I will award 10 additional BP to round out the character. You start with the fixer Kilroy for free [ Loyalty =1, Rating =3 ]. You may spend BP to bump up the loyalty to a 2 or 3. Bonus contacts as well as karma for both objective completion as well as consistent posting will be awarded.

Feel free to use PMs as needed as well for clarifications or covert details.

NPC's
Do not assume the actions/reactions of anyone listed as contact. You can take reasonable artistic liberties with non-contact NPCs, but please PM me first if you engage in extended dialog. In the case of assumptions of time passed in travel, NPC reactions, etc I may ask for an edit. In the end, I will try not to impact your creativity where your post doesn't impact my world view.

Dice Rolling
Please use http://invisiblecastle.com/rolldice.py. For campaign name, please use: Puyallups
The only rolls I will reserve are perception and assensing rolls. By knowing if the character glitchs or the degree of success, then strategic information may be given away. All others will be made by the players.

Time away from the board
I would like to set an expectation of 1-2 posts per week. Real Life happens though. If a player will be AFK for more than a few days, just post in the OOC and give us a heads up. PM me instructions and I can remote your character in order that the game can continue with your presubmitted actions. (We all know that sometimes you can take a week or two of vacation and still make most of a combat scene)
