Well, lawa's system seems pretty good, so unless anyone has a suggestion of their own, we oughta get started. If that wasn't clear yet, I'm signing up as a GM, right after Gatleos unless someone else wants that spot?
Wait, what? I'm GMing now? I suppose I could start it off and write the "pilot episode". Is anybody up to indexing each GM's turn with a link in the OP?

Oh, you're not? I assumed you were - this was your idea, after all.

I can do that, if nobody else volunteers. What would I need to include in the starting post and is the name of the thread going to be Endless RTD?

Nah, I can start it. I'll create the thread and update the OP when needed.

So, have we thought of a premise? Maybe I could think one up from the vague character bios that the initial players come up with?

We're the power rangers in all but name. five man band of crime fighters or something.

From what I remember this means we get giant combining robots too.

Oh, alright, I was already creating the topic.

Okay, so we've got six people Walking the Earth, fighting Monsters of the Week while a Myth Arc develops in the background. I'm still sticking to my Mad Science! angle which fits in with most settings after a fantasy tech level, but that doesn't need to be the main theme, just mine. Building parts around character bios sounds alright.

Wait, we're power rangers now? I thought we were doing the above. Superhero team could be fun as well, as long as people wouldn't fully copy the Power Rangers.

I have no idea what the hell is going on. People were talking about power rangers and the thread kinda blurs after that.

I think we agreed on the Walking the Earth thing though. That sounds about right.

Goddammit can someone comb through the last couple of pages and find out exactly what happened here?

I think someone else was going to make a Power Rangers RTD after someone suggested superpowered team? I dunno. 'Tis thread moves so fast sometimes.

Okay, I looked back and apparently Irony, Digital and Gat are all simultaneously writing an Eternal RTD opener, which is really confusing.

Irony? What? Since when has he been involved in this?

And I didn't get further than the title before I saw Gatleos' post, so.

I think the problem stems from the fact Irony suggested doing MMPR and someone else assumed he meant he was doing it as the Endless RTD.

You are now a team of crack mercenaries killing people and doing awesome things. In other words, roll to A-Team. No wait, scratch that. The A-Team thing is just how I'm starting it out; you can take it any direction you want after that. Giant robots included... maybe they get sent into the future and Howling Mad Murdock pilots a Gundam or some shit I DON'T KNOW

Sound good for a vague premise?

In fact, I guess I'll just ask now: Is there any interest in me starting up Eternal RTD, using Power Rangers as a baseline (or either one on its own, for that matter)? Anything else you'd prefer/not prefer/like to say?

Followed by multiple posts of 'DO EET'

Goddamnit we need to get our shit together.

Augh. Okay. Is Irony here? What's he doing? We need to get everyone who's involved with the opener here for like ten minutes and come to some sort of conclusion.
