That is one of the best R.T.D. ideas I've heard in a long time, I know you probably won't make it, or if you do not for a long time, but i would so send in an application.

Is John a reality warper or is he just that uncannily perceptive to conspiracies?

He sees the world... differently than others. Generally, he is just weird, paranoid and, shall we say, possessing an unfiltered enough perception for most obfuscation of complex plots happening around him to not really work. But he only sees certain telltale signs - the phone ringing peculiarly when he's around, his boss occasionally forgetting to blink for long periods of time or bringing only one particular type of sandwich - say, a herring sandwich of questionable quality - to work. Things that most would not see or, for that matter, suspect to be part of a greater plan.

I'd totally be in for the heroes of the multiverse thing.

I've started HEROES OF THE MULTIVERSE under a slightly less cheesy name over in FG&RP; do check it out if you have time.

This is my current progress on a TF 2 RTD I had the idea for, just posting it now to get (hopefully helpful) criticisms on the work I've done so far which is basically just classes.

Deathmatch Fortress: Hat Grab

Spoiler: Classes (click to show/hide)

Heavy - You are the heavy, your big gun is the death of many who try to attack you head on unaware of your strengths.
Health: 4
Starting Items:
Minigun - Every attack action has three attack die instead of one.
Steak Sandvich - Once per round you can eat the Sandvich healing any of the damage you've taken.

Medic - You are the medic, your needle gun and ubercharge can be the bane of any foe.
Health: 2
Starting Items:
Needle Gun - Every attack action has two attack die, shooting a team member will hill them for one health for every hit.
Uberpack - The uberpack has a max charge of five, every charge can heal 1 health and 1 charge is generated per turn. With 5 charges you will be able to use Ubercharge granting invincibilty for two turns (or one turn if you give another player invincibility as well)

Engineer - You are the engineer, you have the ability to build turrets, teleporters, and health dispensers to help your team or to help you in the FFA deathmatch rounds.
Health: 3
Starting Items:
Shotgun - Every attack can hit up to two enemies in the same room.
Wrench & Toolbox - This basic equipment will allow you to build either a turret or a health dispenser in a single room.

Sniper - You are the sniper, master of killing your foes from a distance with any weapon of a true hunter.
Health: 2
Starting Items:
Sniper Rifle - You can attack any enemy in an adjacent room so long as the rooms are connected, every attack uses a single attack die.
Jarate - Can be used once per round, roll an attack die for every enemy in the room. With a 4-6 its a success and any attacks made against Jarate'd enemies for two turns get a +1 to their die. Also reveals any hidden spies and douses allies in the room as well.

Spy - You are the spy, your job is to sneak into the enemy ranks and kill the key units of the enemies team.
Health: 2
Starting Items:
Revolver - You can attack anyone in the same room as you, the attack has one attack die but has a constant +1 to all attacks (stacks with other bonuses)
Cloak & Dagger - Has a max of 5 charges, gains 1 charge a turn. One charge can be expended to cloak yourself hiding you from everyone (Spies, Snipers, and Pyros have a 1d6 chance to locate you with a 4,5,6 required to succeed respectively.) When cloaked you can attack an enemy and that attack will have an equal number of attack die to the characters health.

Soldier -
Health: 3
Starting Items:
Rocket Launcher - You can attack an enemy in an adjacent room, the attack has two attack die, but on a failure the inhabitants of the room you're in take damage instead.

I approve of any TF2 RTD. I was planning on making either it or the Magicka RTD. Which is still alive, by the way. I just...can't make any kind of map.

As for the classes, they seem alright. Might want to adjust the UberPack so that you can choose to heal someone each turn instead of attack, it heals X amount of heath per turn healing, and make the self-healing a passive ability.

That is gonna be handled in the actual combat rules of the game so no worries, as for self-healing I'll work on it.

Phew, because otherwise, I'd constantly be going 'That's not how that works! It's supposed to do this and have this effect blah blah blah!"

I found a forum adventure over on the mspa forums that somewhat interests me because I like the concept. However, I'm rather bad at explaining things so I'd like you people to check it out. i feel it might work well as a multiplayer forum game/rtd. So uh, here's the link.

(Also I can't figure out how to shorten that link and make it look nicer using the bbcode, if that's actually possible.)

[Yoink]

You can do that with "[ur l=<url>] <link name>[/url]".
Without the space, obviously. Actually I'll just leave an example here for you. Just quote this post and the magic will be revealed.

So, I've been thinking of a few more ideas for RTDs.

First of all, is a Deadliest Warrior RTD. It would play out in an arena-style match, or matches, with several going on at once. Players could choose from different warriors from history, each having weaknesses and strengths specific to their weaponry, strategics, and abilities. There are two choice for how the matches would tend out. It could be a set of 1 Vs 1 matches, Tournament Style, or it could be a Multi-Man All-In style match. It all depends on what the players want. As the games go on, more and more warriors will be unlocked!

Secondly, a RTD based off of Okami and Okamiden. Each player takes on the form of a Brush God, that can use their AND ONLY THEIR brush techniques, but these techniques can be levelled up many times to become more powerful and have more uses. HOWEVER, one may choose to start off as Amaterasu, and only have the Sunrise Technique, but the ability to gain all of the techniques throughout the journey. These would be un-level-able. Their quest is to stop Evil from taking over Nippon once more!

Finally, we have a RTD based off of The Cave.
Each player can take one of the characters, The Knight, The Hilbilly, The Scientist, The Time-Traveller, The Adventurer, The Twins, or The Monk, each with their own special abilities, and must navigate the cave once more, as they must rescue their fellow adventurers who have become trapped at the bottom of the Cave! That, or they could goof off and kill a few people instead. Either way, they're going back in!

Anyone think they'd be interested in the concepts?

[Xantalos]

I approve of the Deadliest Warrior one.

[Parsely]

I was thinking of a sort of mecha-knight story.. Hold on till tomorrow morning once I've gathered my thoughts and caught some sleep. Just posting here now so I don't forget.

[IronyOwl]

Deadliest warrior sounds kind of meh. Arena RTDs tend to be kind of dull as is, and limiting them to historical figures would probably exacerbate that. I think you'd get more kick out of people trying to play Abe Lincoln: Chainsaw Warrior than out of people genuinely pitting Alexander the Great versus Spartacus.

Okami sounds interesting, but I've never played it and thus have no idea what any of these brush powers are or what anyone would be doing with them.

The Cave sounds kind of limited. I think you'd be better off just making some classes and shoving people into a cave for contrived reasons than trying to mimic a certain game.
