Post by Koryo »

Hello everyone. I visit two other boards besides this one, and I wondered: Has anyone here ever considered doing an online Empire Builder Role Playing Game? For those of you who don't know what that is, it would be a turn based strategy game in which you would controll an empire (like the "Empire" or Vong or New Rep, or Ssi Ruuk, or Yevetha, or whatever). You come on once a day to post your "Turn Update." This gives info on your empire. Were your ships are, what planets you controll, how much of certain resouces you have, and who you might be attacking at that time.
It is also OK if you have to miss a turn or two, and once you learn the rules, TU posting is usually pretty easy and not at all time consuming. If anyone is interested in creating one here, I would love to know. And if anyone wants to know more about them, I can post some links to a few. They are fun to play, and you can Role Play as much as you want. From just posting your TUs every and and nothing else, to posting a five page story allong with each TU :lol:
Thanks for listening to me.

1) This would go in Gaming, if anything.

2) Plugging sites as your first post isn't a good idea.

Not who, what. It's a roleplay. see here, here, or here for examples. (all from the "STGOD 2", there have been a few others, and a bunch of TGODs (a LOT less structured versions of STGODs, see here for an example of one of those)

This board has an odd definition of "spam". Observe the board a bit and you will see what they mean.

File me under "Knows what they are, thinks it's dumb" or "Knows what they are, but doesn't give a shit".

Nice to see that all of your damn options are positive and ego-stroking... :roll:

Actually, that one was there, but this was the first time I have ever used your poll option, so I didn't get the last one in. I didn't know that I had to push the button one more time. :? Sorry.

Done. :roll: Please read above.

Hey, hey, calm. Read above. I had another option ( a neqative one) but didn't add it. Bacause, as I said, it was the first time I used your poll option.

I am not a noob to boards in general, just this one. All the others I have been to have a very different way of posting a poll.
