AND IT'S FULL

Thread going up soon.

nooooooooooo I will occupy the Holy Waitlist of Alexandria ;(

[Darvi]

Do you see now why I hate pre-reservations?

Aside from my usual hating everything that is.

[lawastooshort]

Yeah I only went and updated an RTD for half an hour

[Dave1004]

Curses, fouled again! Why must this demon known as "Sleep" plague my mind so much!? Alas, it cannot be for I. My day shalt come, and whence it does all shall hear the tales of Dave, Le True Knight!

But, seriously bro, letting people make reserves is horrible. At least give us a fair competition!

...Oh gods. BRILLIANT IDEA. If I may an RTD, I'll accept unlimited applications...But, only those who get a 6 on a 1d6 will be allowed in. (With a cap, of course.) That's perfect! Completely fair, in my opinion...Heheheh. I see great things in my future! Great things indeed. Now, where'd I put that cocoa...

Also: How many of you awesome people would be interested in a short-RTD? Sort of a test faze...It'll be a simple, invade-dark-castle type of game, and the only goal is to defeat the Grand Evil at the top. I mean, not too short, but not that long either...If anybodies interested, I may start brainstorming...Then again, I don't really have a brain, but...You know. That thinking thing that, uh, smart people do. With their...uh...brains. I...think.

I agree wholeheartedly with you Dave. I should have let people sign up in the thread itself. Oh well. It was worth a shot.

Or someone else can run ANOTHER Roll to Cross Animals.

Would this small game of yours have... *Shifty eyes* magic?

[Mullet Master]

I have another idea for dealing with waiting lists.
Let the people on waiting lists help with the GMing.
They get something to do, you get stuff to use for your game,and they stay interested in the game in case you need another player.

For example, let's say you are running a medieval adventure. Have the people on the waiting list come up with 20 NPC names, the name of a couple of towns, etc.

Hey, good idea. I guess the ideal is for that to be done via PMs, though, since I can't guarantee the waitlisters actually read the thread.

I might have the waitlisters come up with animal names and item names in RTCA.

Sorry, it does. I take it you're more of a steam-punk kind of guy?

Magic in a sense...Not magic like in Skyrim or something like that, but a slightly more basic type. Reagent magic, Soul magic and Blood magic.

Reagent is the weakest form, which anybody can use. It uses anything from special ingredients to enchanted items, which can be harnessed into a sort of raw energy. Mostly used for things like Elemental magic and whatnot.

Soul magic is the next step up, requiring somebody to either have been born with an innate magical talent, or spent many years acquiring said talent. It's kinda like the normal game-type magic, where you draw the "Mana" from your own pool. Said pool can be depleted, but will replenish over time. It can be combined with Reagent magic as well.

Blood magic is a much darker form of Magic, requiring blood (And sometimes more) sacrifices. It can come from anything, from the caster's own life to the lives of...Others. A very difficult type of magic to harness, it can be used for anything from Elemental magic to raising the very dead. It's rare, since it's heavily outlawed, but people still practice it.

That's the basic gist of it, anyways. What do you think? Please criticize me, I need the guidance!

Edit: Horrid typo! Forgot an E! Argh.

What sort of abominations shall you forge from the corpse of Resetti? OH, Derm-Accursed, what horrible plagues shall you wreck upon the innocents of Animal Crossing?

Hm, I like it. Makes it so even the most brutal of warriors can still use a little bit of magic. You honestly don't give yourself enough credit.

Blood magic sounds like my type of character!

Which is usually a story ruining city exploding abomination creating wizard.

[freeformschooler]

Neat stuff, Dave. What about plot? It can be as little as one sentence!

Don't let this guy use blood magic.

[Dermonster]

Let this guy use ALL the blood magic.

You seem to have made a typo.

[IronyOwl]

I like it too. Blood magic for all!
