Snowpoint Station: Lounge

Heh. We tried a Gundam War idea....failed epically due to lack of quality writers.

I just think it'd work out only as a regular RP then with the chance for sex to occur as a sidebar. The real problem is that not many of the female writers here are familiar with gundam or at least not enough to feel confidant in doing such a long running plot heavy thread, and a group thread that doesn't get down to things raunchy rather quickly dies quickly.

That was our major problem set, yes.

You hit the nail on the head there Veroe.
Though if we did a normal RP version we wouldn't need female writes.
No sex and all.

Yeah, atleast with something like Star Wars or Star Trek or even Avatar now its fairly ubiquitous so any thread from those is almost sure to garner more interested quality female writers, Gundam is just too narrow a fanbase...unless one of us finds that one in a million girl that's seen it and is as big a fan as we are...I just don't think it'll work out. Any attempt at it will be putting alot of pressure on our co-writers to keep up and understand it enought to add to it.

Not to mention the danger of derailing the whole thing with having to explain the technology over and over. It's just better off visual rather than literal.

The real problem is that most of the girls on here don't realize that Gundam was never GEARED towards guys. It was geared towards girls, and made by a woman. But because of all the giant robots and explosions and stuff, the relationship dramas were overlooked by most people.

when doing a fan thread, A thread set in a TV show or movie whose universe you want to play in, how interested are you guys in keeping it as close to canon as you can get? I mean do you guys try to disregard the rules of the show or the movie or do you try look for loopholes or spaces left open to explore?

Depends on the show and my inspiration. In the case of Star Wars, a lot has yet to be explained or explored.

There are always, always loop hole around.
But for me it's trying to stay with in Gundam itself and also to have a armored core level of MS to play with.

Also for say Gundam settings.
In the shows, mostly UC gundam, I like the idea of having characters from the side stories show up.
I mean like take the final battle in MSG.
What if Shiro from 08th MS team was there with say a Gundam G3 or something(or one of the EZ8 mods from the games)
Or on a better setting ZZ =D
or CCA!
CCA with Amuro, Kamile and Judau joined Forces?
Or if Haman didn't take her own life at the end of ZZ?
Would she have joined Char and his Neo Zeon?
Or would she have sided with Amuro(unlikely) and Londo Bell to stop Char from dropping Axis on Earth?

I personally think she would have done whatever she thought her husband would have done.

That's what I like to do too. What's that guy's story there in the background. I generally don't like it when people say play John Crichton from Farscape and have him ditch Aeryn for Zann or something completely slapping the face of the show to begin with.

Though I liked how Razor did that bleach thread with Rukia and the ones with the sailor scouts playing on their stated goals he was talking to someone about earlier in the china pearl inn. Those were clever ideas, Razor.

*grins impishly* Ah yes, my anticanon one on ones. Yes, those were fun. I'd like to get some of them going again. But I can never find partners anymore.
 
For me, I'll RP in said settings, hell even fight side by side with characters from it.
ie: Hell yeah I'd fight alongside Obi-wan Kenobi!
But I don't like RPing as them.
I find it too limiting for my own enjoyment.
because I know how they should be, and don't want to have to try to RP in those already set guild lines.
I'd rather be some unknown Jedi working to help protect or topple the Galactic Republic.

I think you would have liked my Inbound Flight idea...

Maybe who knows.
Still I can't seem to find anyone to RP with at all so yeah.
I think I've asked you this before dragon.
But ever think about starting a non-sexual Gundam RP with me?

Try it. Here try this one out: what if a new shinigami is assigned as the protector of konukuro town but now needs a place to stay. Floppy hat guy's place is all full up and Ichigo told her flat out no, Chad snores really loud, and there's no way the Quincy will let her stay with him...so...she's forced to look for room and board with one of Ichigo's schoolmates...you.

Or you could easily play the soul reaper and arrange to stay with Orihime since she lives all alone anyway.

We tried that with the Gundam War, and look what happened. Still, if we did actual recruiting instead of making it an open casting call, it might actually work.

Lol. The Orihime one was actually a great deal funnier, I think, mainly because Orihime is such a total klutz, but has these moments of such sheer brilliance that it makes you wonder if the ditz routine is an act. And then she takes a sip of scalding hot coffee and does a spittake to rival sixties cartoons.

heh sounds like something he'd like.
I only reach Bleach in Shonen Jump right now.
I also watched a few eps, but I never really got into it myself.
Though some of the girls are sexy yes =)
 
Mmm, Yoruichi. And Rukia is clearly like Hinata. Binding herself up (though Hinata doesn't bind herself as much as one would think)

I really liked Yoruichi teasing Ichigo in some of the Episodes, any thread I do starring her I would want that sort of thing, and that would be putting too much on my co-writer's shoulders to be fair to her. Alot of the women here would be able to pull off Hinata's shyness and attraction to Naruto, and I'm sure I could pull off Naruto's complete obliviousness to the fact she likes him. though if I were to do characters from Naruto it'd more than likely be Shigamaru and Tamari.

Heh
Yeah I saw a ep or two of Bleach with Yoruichi.
Don't know much about her other then she's hot, and turns into a cat with a male voice o_O
