Current To any and all concerned. My apologies for the long silences and erratic activity. I've decided to take a longer hiatus instead of letting people wait. I hope to return again once I'm feeling better.

Blegh, sorry everyone for so many delays and waits. Got some time off next few weeks to start turning things back into my usual schedule. Life is not being kind at the moment for hobbies.

What makes me curious is *why* we shouldn't look. Just how bad is that number you're ashamed of people potentially looking at it?

Me continuously playing characters within some kind of sardonic spectrum. I guess that tracks...

Getting back in the flow of things after what felt like a year in Hell condensed down to two weeks. Expect replies over the weekend. Thank you everyone for your patience and kindness!

On hiatus until further notice.

Currently not in a good headspace for hobbies. My apologies to any and all roleplays I've joined or was about to join. I'm hoping to return when I feel a bit better.

Cheers,

@Jinxxed@Scrawl Banditta Thank you for the condolences! It's been a rough time, yeah, but I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things.

@Nameless Hero For the sake of not letting people wait on me too long, I'm cool skipping this round. Nimethel was generally just going to give a simple nod and fall in line, really. Things are really hectic right now with stuff that needs to be sorted. Again, sorry for the many delays.
Slowly but surely chipping away at a post. My mind's all over the place, so if my bit is taking too long I'm all for skipping ahead a bit. Wouldn't want people to be stuck waiting on me.
@Ohm Just saw the IC. Will look into getting a sheet up this week and send it to you. :)
My preferences for what makes me apply for or pass over a roleplay hasn't changed much over the years. I mainly look for three things:

Engaging plot, or at least a good enough premise to sink my teeth into. Simple character sheet that doesn't demand a deep psychological profile down to how a character likes to part their hair. A nice enough word count I feel like we can write an actual story, not too short it's more chat-speak and not too lengthy it's basically just singular posts with self-contained events (collab posts excluded, obviously).

Whether or not I pass on a roleplay is usually based on my personal tastes. I avoid most SoL- and apocalypse-style roleplays. It's not that they can't be interesting, but heavily rely on sandbox mechanics that have just put me off them in general. AI involvement in writing is an obvious pass, but so far I haven't really seen it come up beyond image generation which I'm pretty okay with. Also adverse to fandoms that are basically OC x CC instead of building on something original within that universe. Similarly, if an original story requires specific character archetypes to be filled with set personalities and dynamics, I pass on that as well.
... You had me at Cypher System.

Hey, just wanted to let everyone know I'm working on getting a post up this weekend. Apologies for the delay! My dad unexpectedly passed away, so the past weeks have been a literal rollercoaster. But I'm slowly getting back into writing again.
Hey everyone! I'm still here and doing okay. Planning a post over the weekend now that things have calmed down.
@Nameless Hero For now you can put me last, thanks! That way people don't end up waiting for me to post something. Life is still hectic, but it's looking like I'll have some more time to post next week.

If I think I need to skip this round I'll let you know! Sorry for the sudden delay.
