@Fallenreaper There's a reason I consider him my main character. :P

@NeutralNexus

Are you saying you're a wise ass too? *gasps* I wouldn't never known it! *teases*

My characters already said what they needed to say. I was hoping someone would try to confront him on it, but if not we can move on unless we want to hear War-Pulse make more jokes about the situation.

@NeutralNexus

But that's the fun part, his wise cracks. :p

There is no link in this post

@Tearstone

He pmed them as to prevent some creeper from posting pornography into the doc randomly one night.

I checked it just now and its view only.

@Dedonus

That answered my question then. It means the link alters with the changes, which sort of bite... :/

Can't you edit it?

@Dedonus

I can edit it any time to where anyone with a link can edit it, but considering the creeps lurking the site, I much rather not until I'm ready and such. I'm also fiddling with things to see if I can make a link where you can only view it using that set link and another link where you can use to edit it. Just not figured that part out.

I've also been considering making an RP thread of my own, as I've a ton of random lore that I've created over the past few months for stories that I'll never write, but I'm not sure of that yet either.

@fdeviant

My suggestion is focus on story, before you do or add lore to the world. If you don't have a premise/idea, which if you think about it even NMS' sandbox rp has a one: a super hero rp, then it might crumble a week into production or sooner. If you can easily come up with a premise that keeps your attention, even after you set aside for several months, then you have a good one to focus and drive on. The reason I say this is because often people get excited by 'shiny' ideas which hold your attention only until the gleam fades away. When that happens, you lose all fun and excitement in the story which can spread to your players, who are depending on you to help them move it, even in a sandbox.

Another suggestion, go in with someone you know and trust. Then come up with the premise, the story outline (not the gritty details, see below for an example), the world and NPCs key to your story, and finally the location where people can start or need to get to.

Intro: Introduce the foreshadowing of the threat, setting and Players intro.
Rising Action 1: First threat
Rising Action 2: Second threat or encounter
Rising Action 3: Another threat/encounter/something important
Climax: Usually a big fight or something revealing to the players
Fallout: Results of the player's actions and the fight, usually passing of some time.

Keep in mind to keep them loose and flexible, even independent of the players' actions, yet predestined to happen. Like a event set in time that no one can stop, but they can influence the outcome and degree of its damage. Granted, that's my method and you should seek one out that works well for yourself because everyone is different in GMing.

Just FYI. It's not view only. ;)

@Dedonus

The link itself was the view only. Also, I wonder how many people would've realized that if you'd not said anything...

@Fallenreaper I'm waiting for the Pax story line to continue progression to see where Marie will go. Just finished another small arc for Hekate and I'm not entirely sure what I'll do with her now.

@fdeviant

Ask any of the newbies if she can torment them?

Create-A-Hero: A Superhero RPG (Closed)

@Fallenreaper Everything's coming along pretty well, I'm just waiting for some time to pass before I work on the next part of Riley's origin arc.

@KaiserElectric

I'm currently waiting for NN, poor guy is busy as hell, so I'm trying to past the time. I'm also hoping to get to know people a bit more, stir my creativity, etc and maybe burn off some extra energy. I'm currently setting up the Alien Doc so I can show VAT another approach including an explanation in the doc over what should be considered for each Header to make things easier. Here's my progress so far, and don't worry, it's view only: Doc Link!.

@VATROU @Fallenreaper I was also thinking it needed to be reorganized so whatever you think is best go ahead.

@fdeviant

Yeah, it's cool that we're are all excited and have some awesome ideas, but if we don't keep on top of organization this will become giant, messy snowball which will take weeks to untangle.

By the way, how is everyone? Including the new interest as I am curious on your guys' progress, especially if you need someone to toss ideas about with or just shot the breeze about character ideas.

@Fallenreaper I'm trying to reformat it now, and making dinner. So it's slow going but you can pop in and see if I'm on the right track.

@VATROU

I think I'll be in bed soonish so I'll look at it later.
