Not really an idea, but I think there are really to many Suggestion games, and not enough RPG's on the forum.
Not exactly. About 3 of the games on the first page of the FGRP board are SGs.

Why don't you try making one?

Always good advice, I say.

Because Im rubbish at it and I already have one going that I can rarely update thanks to real life distractions. And what I meant is that theres always a relative lack, you said theres 3 on the front page. Whats the rest? I bet most of the rest of the first page and the next are suggestion games, and the ones that are up are filled and you'd need to be placed on a waitlist.

Alright, maybe I was a bit vague, what I meant is RPG games where you control a character you create, which what I really see as a RPG, I don't really think suggestion games to be real RPG games.

I'm sorta making up a new RPG game. It's probably not what you have in mind, but...

Pretty much all games in the FGRP forum are games with players though! I agree with what you say about SGs, but they are a minority, imo.

Tell that to Dueling Blades and Foot Soldiers, which are both in need of players. Dueling Blades can't even start and only one person who's joined has turned in a sheet.

I think I remember a period where suggestion games were so common people actually talked about giving them their own subforum. That's obviously died down nowadays, though.

In my almost two years (anniversary is coming up actually, I can't believe it's been that long..) not much has changed. The trend has always been about 1 SG for every 3 PGs. I do remember minimalists being a really, really big thing when I first started out.

I'm fairly certain like three of the RPGs on this forum never have waitlists due to the fact that they are almost purely player driven. That means most of the time there isn't a firm plot but eh.
