I think to sell someone on an interest check, it's really important to seem enthusiastic about your own idea. That means writing more than a single sentence to attract potential players.

Bio


W I T H R I G H T E O U S H A N D S




Did you know that Dante's inferno is called a divine comedy because things work out for the protagonist? Back in the day, the only two genres were comedy and drama. The only difference was that in a comedy, the protagonist is better off at the end, and a drama is the opposite. So that's why a story about going through hell can still be considered a comedy, even if it's not funny.

Name:
Broken Promise, BP, Boss

Age:
Old enough to know better, too young to care. (that is to say 30's)

Preferred RPs:
I Prefer to make my own, but will occasionally join something if it looks interesting. I'll join just about anything so long as it isn’t overly edgy/sweet, though it's rare for me to do. I don't do 1x1s too often either.

Preferred Roles:
I tend to play adorable characters everyone wants to befriend or proper assholes everyone wants to stay away from. I try not to play moral paragons or prime evils.

RP Conquests:
I've completed quite a few RP's off site, but most of them are on private forums or have simply been lost to the ravages of server crashes. As for stuff here, I'm sure everyone who sees me post in the off topic sections has seen me find an excuse to talk about Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage. It's a project that took over 4 years to complete and I feel pride not only for myself but all the wonderful people who helped make it enjoyable during its run. Re: Zero: The High Council Is technically my first, but it was just something I kind of took over and ended up ending the story after just six months. It finished, but eh...

Last RP I finished was Symphony of Espers which turned out pretty good.

RP's in progress:
For some reason I can't seem to stay away from Ari's magical girl RP, even if I'm not sure why I'm still in it.

As for my own projects, I'm doing Symphony on High to continue the gigachad adventures of the espers in Pax Septimus.

RP Graveyard:
I've been pretty fortunate on this forum. I think I joined one when I first came on the site that didn't really do anything, and there are a few 1x1 things that didn't go anywhere. It's disappointing when an RP ends before it can be finished, but I've come to look at them as learning experiences.

And then there's that london magical girl RP, and that dark magical girl RP. I think I'm done joining magical girl RPs for a while.

Other interests:
Videos
I watch a lot of educational videos on youtube. Usually as research for something I’m writing or purely because a topic interests me. I like channels like Tier Zoo and Daryl Talks Games, and I’ll also watch things like Critical Drinker or Literature Devil to deepen my understanding of story telling. Though I also like memes and jokes, to which I’ll find myself watching stuff like Sseth, but usually find myself surfing through meme videos. I gotta work on that.

Games
I have a rather long history of playing virtually every platformer to come into existence during the indie boom, as well as quite a few other indie games. I’ve played Meatboy, Binding of Issac, Gunvolt, Cuphead, Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt, Classic Metroid, Warcraft 3, Final Fantasy 7,8, and 14, Left 4 Dead, Shantae, Celeste, Danganronpa, God Eater, the list goes on. What I’ve played is kind of all over the place. I don’t play many games these days, I tend to pick things that look interesting and go on a decent steam sale.

Painting Minis
I do this in moderation. Otherwise, it's a pretty expensive hobby to start...

Music
I listen to everything, save most country/rap songs. I have too many favorites to name.

Personality:
Not one to take life or the internet too seriously. Is only serious about writing well and having a good time.

People to Insult:
Dalton is a Dingus.

In addition to being vindictive, i think you're loquacious, and a bit ubiquitous on the forum. but at least you're no scuttlebutt.

EDIT: I don't actually think Pudding is vindictive.

So I guess we can assume any celebrity who died during 2016 is fair game?

Also, would it be fair to have a waifu return? You had "mai the body pillow" written as waifu during the haloween games, so it's kind of a gray area.
In MSI Laptops for gaming and other use?? → 10 yrs ago Forum: Off-Topic Discussion
well, i can't really help you with the thief problem. If you're worried about people stealing your stuff, i'd hold off on buying something unless you have a place to safely store it.

From my experience, gaming laptops are always less powerful and more expensive than tabletop options. I think it has to do with the power supply and cooling.

Not sure why you need 2 graphics cards. I'll admit that's out of my area of expertise, but back in the day you did that if you wanted to run 2 programs at the same time, or on different monitors. I think in most cases you're better off with one powerful video card instead of two, but don't quote me on that.

Also, what do you plan on playing? If all of your games are five years old, you really don't need that kind of hardware.

In Tracer is Gay - the question is who cares? Bussiness does. → 10 yrs ago Forum: Off-Topic Discussion
@Buddha I understand your frustration. It's sad our entertainment industry plays these games with us, but it is everywhere. The only reason why we're talking about this is because overwatch is so big. But it happens everywhere.

I am a bit curious who everyone else would have made gay though, and how that would have been any less scummy. would the gay community have taken offense if Winsten was made gay? an ugly, hairy ape representing the GBLT movement?

It really is a shame that Tracer's preference in genitals was the draw for the comic. There's actually a really cool story about the spirit of Christmas in there, but it's been entirely overshadowed.
In Tracer is Gay - the question is who cares? Bussiness does. → 10 yrs ago Forum: Off-Topic Discussion
The evidence that this was a business move was the fact that they hyped it. I forgot they actually made overwatch comics, and it was only when every social media circle I belong to exploded into "OMG A CHARACTER IN OVERWATCH IS GBLT" that I remembered. Who they chose for this stunt didn't really matter. However, there were a lot of people "shipping" Tracer with other female characters from the game, so I think they decided to cater to those fans and just make Tracer officially gay. I think the idea is that the comic will eventually turn readers into players.

But honestly, I've seen very few examples of characters that are gay for plot reasons or are gay "just because." It's almost always treated as a big surprise to get people talking about the "thing" again. I honestly don't think a lot of people read the comics, and this was done to increase readership and get the comic views up before the end of the year. But who really knows?

Sadly, business politics can be quite parasitic when they creep into our entertainment. Maybe when people stop getting exited/offended over a character's sexual preference we'll stop seeing this kind of abuse.
In Am I the only one who thinks this way on RP's lifespans? → 10 yrs ago Forum: Roleplaying Discussion
First of all, if you're going to start a topic with a meme title, you need to use the picture:



Now with that out of the way...

Yes, I think it's childish to openly complain about "the site" when your RP or one you are participating in dies. Having said that, I can't pretend that I feel nothing when one dies when I haven't done my big reveal I was building towards. But I've gotten pretty good at recycling these arcs in new characters, and those ones are always the most satisfying to complete.

But if you're one of those "Johnny RP Seeds" who never sticks with an RP for longer than two weeks, this RP thing might not be for you.

@ACHTUNGI'd be surprised if a lot of posting happened over Christmas.

But if you do post, i made some edits to your magical girl costume you may wish to employ.



I like how she was already holding a bag. That was too perfect!
