Proposed by Black Hotaling for the new Arcade business.

Important note about CD4 - child avatars will be restricted to play within "safe" city blocks -- in Hathian, there are only 2-3 of them while majority of it is reserved for adult (18+) characters. The arcade would be placed in that area (look adjacent to the skate park).

DATE: 2/22/11

PROPOSAL BY: Black Hotaling

GROUP NAME: Asylum Arcade

BACKSTORY: Well, on the outside it will look much like a squeaky clean arcade (Well, save for the sticky floors and such). Brian will spend 90% of his time there, behind the counter or in a back room. There will be a supply of different shitty concession foods that no body really likes but eats because its whats available. The staff will more than likely be made up of the younger bracket of society, since it is an arcade and all. On the other side of the business end of the establishment, I plan to use it to aide the local criminal underbelly, for a price that is. Help with money laundering, drug trafficking (Most of those arcade cabinets are empty space, after all) and other such activities.

UNIQUE: How many other places are geared for children-young adults? It'd be a nice place for kids, teens, and even just adults who are kids at heart to RP. Also, I'm sure it'll be the only arcade in Hathian (unless some one else is randomly doing one, though I'd be mighty surprised). The underbelly attributes it adds will also make for interesting RP opportunities within the community, which is what I'm all about.

IDEAS:I think the arcade can bring a lot to the community. It'll give a safe place for kids/teens/young adults to hang out (Brian is a father at heart and is strongly against people putting children in harm's way) Brian is also a rather successful criminal himself. He's run guns, drugs, people. He's older now, and wiser, and keeps his dastardly deeds on the down low. All this adds up to an environment run by some one that will help propel other people's RP forward and help drive story lines deeper. Some evens I was thinking of were gaming tournaments, maybe hosting birthday parties and such. CD has evolved into a more family oriented Sim, and I believe an Arcade can help keep that going.

OTHER:It was there before, and I feel like I did a good job with it. I'd like to continue that into the future.

Community: Please provide general feedback on this proposal, including comments, suggestions for improvement, advice based on your experience, or simply to show support if you like this proposal.
