Hey guys its me....again....making a new RTD...again...BUT this will not die (: I will post the rules and such as we go but you can sign up now if you wish..

The Background

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I was going to have the background of this be based off my Roll to The Fallout series but that had to many inactive players so I ended it ):.....The year 3029, 300 years after the apocalypse. Here's how it happened: "We will not allow these men to do whatever they wish! They have crossed the line and they must be stopped in the name of freedom, democracy, and justice!" The crowd cheered as president Reilly authorized the orbital strike. Over night the people Reilly was talking about had lost 90% of its people. Woman, children..all dead. China was gone... "We must rally against the American scum! They have fired indiscriminately against our glorious China! We and our allies shall strike back against the pigs!" America also devastated rallied it's allies which included Mexico, Canada, and basically all of South America except for Chile and Venezuela. China had Russia, and Germany. Europe, Africa, and Australia formed ACF. In the week that followed 92% of all people died... You 5 will claim this world from the mutants and make a wasteland empire to stand the test of time!

You are the only thing that can keep a RTD alive. Posting to attempt to make this one live.  If players don't post, make up an action for them. If they do it alot, kill them off.

They will die in the name if Armok!! Dont worry this time it will live.

THEY WILL DIE IN THE NAME OF ARMOK....Dont worry this time IT WILL LIVE

I'm going to go ahead and say something else now:
Act professional. You have as much time as you want to post/edit posts/do a turn/etc, so make them look good.
If a RTD looks good, people will join.
An example is your new title. It looks shoddy to me. So does the name of the RTD. I have a few suggestions on this regard:
"Roll to After the Fallout. In signups, [1/5]"
"Roll to Fallout"
"Roll to Rebuild"
"Fallout RTD. In signups: 1/5"
etc.
Seriously, type everything out professionally, it makes you look better. At the moment, I have you pegged as a 12 year old who liked some RTD he saw, as well as the Fallout universe, so he wants his own RTD, that seems half-baked.
On this point, an Armok reference is cool and all, but a mostly-caps post isn't.

Now onto something you'll hate.
You've said that the players are setting up a colony and there's food and research.
You should have the systems for this already. You should have them before you made the opening post.
Make a tech tree, if you don't have one. Make it BIG. Make it expansive. If you're that lazy, I'll make one. But you should, so you know it.
Now, I'm going to say something that I think is the best advice for game design.
Players, given the option to do everything, tend to do nothing.
You haven't defined traits, classes or anything.
If you like the Fallout games, take the skill list from one of them (I recommend Fallout Tactics or New Vegas) and let the players tag skills. That's classes made.
As for traits, again, go the the games and take them from there, if you want.

These are suggestions. I'm not ordering you do do anything, and you can refuse to do anything suggested. But I urge you to at least consider the points made.

I can help with making systems/traits/perks/etc, but I will only do it if I want to. No guarantees that I'll do it.

On a less serious point, which of the Fallout games have you actually played?

Yeah I will make everything a lot more professional.The research tree will be a mystery until the players make an academy then the first 10 options are open but you have to have the item or if they a book it will give them a tech speed up on the tech the book talks about. The food system is that each villager and player needs 3 units if food a day minimum. Same with water except they need 5 units of water.
I will make some premade perks 20 or so but will allow players if they wish to make their own as long as it's not to powerfull. I will have skillls and I will post the list tommorow. I have played all the PC games of fallout along with Fallout NV and Fallout 3 on the PS3
Thanks for the tips
