First off, hearty congratulations to Nadir on his marriage! (Why do a picture a wedding cake with HPD station, Lou’s and the Titty Twister represented in yummy decoration format) …..
Anyway just to mention that one of the other major urban RP sims out there has decided to close on 3 October. Sad to hear this, it was a really cool looking sim.…[Read more]
Sounds cool guys, in fact, with the Backwaters being a different town – all the more reason for cop characters to go off-duty and join in the craziness! maybe with masks, face paint, or who knows!
Will get planning during the weekend… need to come up with a flyer to hand around IC!
OK so here’s something Val was discussing IC with Maze Wilde.
A Street party/rave in the Backwaters area of the sim – taking over some of the abandoned clubs and roads down there for one night of wild tunes, crazy clothes, booze … and drugs. Pills for you, pills for me, as St Vincent sings.
I have Vicus Volkoff interested in DJ duties, and…[Read more]
Thanks James – been reckoning I would do my part to help with RP where I can. Val going back to work in the Titty Twister was an OOC decision to try and help with some RP scenes there, especially in the early euro hours when I normally RP.
Have also started renting in CD again (although I feel this should be a more automated process, setting up…[Read more]
IMHO (yeah I always say that, but it’s only my opinon) ….. NPCs are great to use when needs be to facilitate RP scenes (NPC bartender, barista, ER staff etc).
One thing I am not keen on though is businesses claiming the place is packed with NPC patrons. If Lou’s actually has 15 IC avatars there, then for me, it’s busy IC. If on the other hand…[Read more]
Is it just Mikhail himself providing bodyguard services? Or is there a team of staff?
Fantastic – I’ll do a Hathian Mardi Gras poster next month and I can mention turning up at Howlers at 5pm SLT as part of the day’s festivities!
YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Tuesday, March 5, is the date for this year’s ‘Fat Tuesday’, aka Mardi Gras.
Traditionally, Mardi Gras RP is focused around the red-light district on Bourbon Street, particularly the front of the Titty Twister. We’ve celebrated Mardi Gras in the Crack Den for the last seven years or so – it’s a tradition! No doubt the one and only Blue Noel will…[Read more]

Sofia has been taking the right approach of facilitating RP and getting regular visitors to her bar. She’s also hosted successful RP events. Plus, the new location has that mix of being just at the edge of the city, giving a new venue not too far out. I was there yesterday and it was great to see the variety of characters visiting – some I know…[Read more]
Cool idea! Maybe have them turn up at regular social events (Howlers, Vice City) or frequenting popular daily spots like the Grind, Lou’s or the Twister so they can eavesdrop and hear some rumors and secrets.
How are you going to handle OOC issues between two players who both want to win the fight? curious to know … do they agree the result OOC beforehand?
Bluebell might remember the RP a long time ago when a pregnant character was assaulted by a gang and lost her child in grisly circumstances. Crazy Crack Den IC shit, but I remember at the time there were a lot of people not directly involved in the RP who were uncomfortable with it OOC. So yeah, no need to take things into territory you don’t…[Read more]

LOVE this idea! Looking forward to spotting some of the deceased …. maybe Sidda, Aisling, Tia, Netanya, Tinker, Buffy aka Rebecca Summers … who knows who else!
I think the best advice here is for the Valerie group to OOC talk to any intended ‘target’ and ask them if they are interested in starting a plotline with Valerie.
I’ve been RPing again on my alt Sax Hammer with Jin Mi for a scene that will hopefully be the catalyst for Jin Mi to start this group. Sax is a big muscular Texan who does porn and has…[Read more]
Messaged Jin Mi, I have a dormant storyline which might suit the Valerie group.
RPing the abduction in a skybox or other secluded or indeed off-sim area seems OK to me. It limits the possibility of others getting involved through metagaming. There are lots of great spots on the main sim for abduction scenes … motel rooms, hidden basements, take a look around and they are there to be found. But doing so runs the risk of…[Read more]
So, we get a lot of good ol’ kidnapping RP in the Crack Den. Someone goes missing, they have become a house guest of someone nasty, police are doing the missing persons search etc. Usually a fun and character building experience.
I’m kind of old school about these things – don’t get involved unless directly asked to, don’t metagame knowing…[Read more]
