I don't like creating a character application for a role play while it's still in the interest check process. When I complete it, the role play never gets green lit or the GM scraps the idea.

I'm not sure which one is more disappointing--submitting a character for a check that doesn't have the momentum to take off, or getting the ball rolling with a really nice emsemble cast and then watching the momentum rocket off a cliff by a GM that doesn't have the gumption to tend their garden.
