I like this idea too. Especially if there are sewers with monsters to kill and loot from!? Ahm. Well, a city like this can feel, gritty and dark, yet still have social gathering places. There can be fights, and there can be a lot of intrigue and politicking too.

It would get my vote for now. Not that I dislike Vinland, but I'm just more of a city person. I also think the RP possibilities are bigger from the outset in such a setting.

Ah, time to resurrect this thread. It sorta' developed into why we will create our own guild, instead of discussing things about this guild. But now, 1.5 month after I posted this (I mean, HELLO!, &"%! slow RP'ers with all of their.. RP. ), it is high time to move on.

First off. The name. Perun is IC going to suggest Seeds of Atys. He has his IC reasons for the name. But we should agree here, or let our chars suggest other names IC with arguments.

Secondly, we need that banner thing designed (I point your attention to my first post in the thread).

Thirdly, I suddenly cannot get the option to create a guild from the Zoraï intendant anymore. This might be due to some technical change. Either the creator has to have a higher Zoraï standing, or you can now only create guilds in cycles (I seem to remember some logging on messages about that?). This might be a delaying problem.

Fourthly, calling it a guild sounds a little misleadingf. Others call their groups an Order or a House for example. Is there something we could use besides guild, or is that ok?

Fifthly. Let us create this 'guild'. ASAP if possible. There's a lot of RP'ing waiting to happen there, and we need to pull together now. 1.5 month of not pulling together is enough I think, we run the risk of losing people. Also, it is hard to recruit new people without this guild in place. Not to speak of all the extra fun RP we can do.

So, I'm suggesting we get together this saturday in Zora, all of us, and do this (if the game allows us to of course, but if not, we'll still have the chance to discuss the guild and the details IC). Now, we still lack Shula, Tinai and Paradoxis to come to Zora. Tinai we will hopefully move today. 'Hopefully'. Shula we can escort easily. Paradoxis we haven't seen for some time. We also need to somehow have Mercellus be a part of this talk.

So, how about standing ready this saturday, if at all possible? It could also be thursday, according to my schedule, if that's better. And then a huge party on saturday, with friends?

I agree with people. Yes, I do. And mostly I agree with Kryigerof.

So, guidelines for how we RP. Yes. A description of who we are and what we do. Articles about RP. A section with info about the games we play (and in those, info about how we RP in them. I.e. more info about how we view the world, dying, communication, etc. THings that are specific to that game)).

Layout wise, I'm happy to leave that to other people. It should probably be pretty modular and clean though, which I know Ahnion can and will do (hah, there, pressure's on you).

As for the community. Yes, let us keep what we have, and keep that spirit. But as Kryigerof says, let us look forward, so that we will not just dwindle, but actually grow, and attract more people of a like mind and bent. Not in any crazy, expansionistic way, leaving behind what we have, no. But let's build it so that we are ready to slowly, steadily expand as we draw RP'ers from the games we participate in. And let us have a structure so that our website can handle the needs of giving info about these games and running guilds in them (I.e. when we make our own SoR guild, it should have a subforum and a section on the homepage, for example). All should fit in with the overall design and idea of course, and there should be room for expansion. Especially on the forum perhaps, and the graphical themes.

It is my fond wish to have a graphical theme for each game we play, so that RP'ers can select the one most relevant to them. That however, needs volunteers. That might or might not come to pass. But we should have the fundament in place for that. I also think we have, Ahnion?

Anyway, I want us to grow. But at a slow pace, so we can keep up and integrate people we meet. We need to preserve the feeling of being friends. An influx of 50 people at a time would be a little too much.

Oh, and then I think info (and/or a direct link to some webIRC thingie) about our IRC channels is very important. Because if we get people to join #seed, we get their souls! (insert evil, maniacal laughter going on for some time).

Yep.

I have RP'ed over IRC previously. I've also played Nobilis as PBEM. Nobilis is very unique and metaphysical, it will take dedication and time to run properly.

I like the idea, but I will personally have enough to do with SoR and URU I think (and later NWN2).

If I was to play a IRC campaign, it would have to be something I could get into imediately and not think too much about when not playing right now.

(( a note, stuck to the bath house in Pyr and the bar in Fairhaven reads the following: ))

This Holeth ((saturday)), some of us will arrive to Fairhaven with a trek of Dragonblades coming from Yrkanis. This trek will go back to Yrkanis again, so this is the chance we've been waiting for to finally meet up and get you all out of Fairhaven. We will set out from Yrkanis around the 10th hour of the the day ((22.00 GMT)). I don't know when the trek will get there, but am pretty sure it will eventually get there. There are good and skilled homins in the blades.

Please gather this Holeth, all of you who want to join up with the rest of us, so we can finally proceed to Zora together.

yours,

Perun

Ah, always liked the Escapist, great they made that interview, though it's always sad getting reminded about Seed and what was not to be. Oh well

Ok, you're not exactl making it easy on my eyes
