2 day out, at 35%. This place is kind of a downer, eh? well, when people who haven't showed up for a match in like 4 months (possibly longer) are booked, you have a certain quota of guaranteed no shows..

We get the "the turnout isn't very good" post before every show and then a rash of RPs get posted. If you were to go through every card in the past several months you'd see that the showing rate is pretty good.

I should have mine in before deadline, and if not, only like an hour after if that's acceptable. I've been working a lot the last week and a half, and im just leaving for my shift now, which is 12 hours, then i work tomorrow as well. And i don't get home from work until like half na hour before deadline, so if i havent finished it yet, just need that little extra time to get er done, if it's acceptable

What's with the rampant use of other people's characters in roleplays lately? It's not just my character being used in Contra's rp this week, I've seen at least one per week since I started paying attention again. Isn't that supposed to be a big no-no, unless the writer gets explicit permission from the character's writer? I, for one, can't imagine that I know anyone's character as well as they do, enough to just write them into a situation to fit my character's rp needs.
Maybe I'm just put off 'cause I just read my character written as if he were Razor Ramon. 'ey yo.

While it seems to be against the rules, would it be easier if Contra put (impersonator) next to every spot where David talks? It seems like that would be an easy fix and would make both parties less stressed.

And as for the other people in roleplays thing, I thought it was alright if permission was given, and the person I was teaming with PMed me and asked me if it was ok to throw me in, and said he'd try to keep me in character as good as possible, so I told him he could go for it. And what he did with the phone call, if I had time to write things, my RP would have started with that, to tie it in nicely.
I just thought in this case, it was cool, since we were teaming

I just thought in this case, it was cool, since we were teaming That is the case, if you get permission from the person who you are using, it's fine. For example: Shawn has asked me plenty of times to use Ace in his RPs since our characters have a lot of history together. He lets me know how he is going to use me, and then I usually give the okay, since Shawn is one of the few people who knows how to write my character. However, the incident that is being talked about the permission was given, and that is why it is an incident. That's how it's been as long as I can remember.

The lack of RPs is almost to the point of depressing.

I've got 1 of my 2 in.. I'm sitting on my Schneider roleplay, as I tend to do for big matches..
There's still like 4 days until deadline, too. Most roleplays come in within the last two days, usually

The great RP migration as I like to call it when it happens.

So hi guys. It's Diamond Jack Sabbath. I used to RP here quite a lot (they're still here if you can find them. I was god-awful. I wanted a 'Guy Richie-style' criminal gimmick and it just came off as idiotic and desperate to be gritty...which it kind of was) and now I've decided to kinda step back over here and see what's going down these days. I've been quite successful down in the XWA due to leading a top heel faction for over a year and my recent face turn.
Decided I'm not gonna RP as of right now, but I'll be looking around and commenting on things as well as basically socialising. Maybe I'll return soon with my much more evolved version of the DJS character and better writing skills, maybe not. We'll see. Either way, I'm here.
