A modern, city-based game with soap elements and a focus on quality of writing and character-driven plot expansion/development.

Basic RP etiquette applies. Writers who apply will be expected to submit a character bio, brief writing sample, or at least communication establishing interest in the game within three days of application. A moderator's request for revision does NOT mean rejection. Failure to indicate you have a pulse after joining means you didn't read the description, and if you can't read, how can you write... right?

Welcome to the bright lights of the big city!

New York has a million different stories, but we're only interested in yours. Are you a hard-boiled city cop who's seen more than you care to tell, a starving artist who may or may not still be wearing those rose-colored glasses, a well-to-do parent worried about your barely-legal teenage daughter's choice of friends, or do you have something completely different to retell with your
keyboard?

The city's far too big to completely cover with one tiny RPG, so we're picking a fictional niche within the city for our characters to live. That way, they can explore the whole rest of the state should they care to, and still have a small place they all call home without feeling so scattered.

This game premise is far from new or original, but the skeleton itself is something I've just stuck together. More changes are coming, so stick around and watch it go! The anticipated start-date is March 15th, so we have plenty of time to develop the city, create characters, trade and develop ideas, and get everything arranged.

Time Change Info:

I'm going to treat this more like a series than a flat RP. Each time-change will have some central plot that your characters have the option to be included in, OR you can continue your own development/interaction with other characters (or
both) like a normal TV series. One week game-time equals four weeks RL time for now. This is also not going to be strictly set in stone, either. It might be moved forward or back if things are going at a pace that makes me think we need more time, or need to wrap up stuff and move on if it's dragging. Also, if you keep on dragging your feet, I'll unsubscribe you. Seems like people can join a million games, but never can bother to post for them. That gets old for the mods and other writers.

Note: This game was on hiatus while I had some RL issues and computer failure. I wasn't actually going to start it, but suddenly, several people joined in, so I guess one of the other games must have either had a dry spell or a flounce. Either way, welcome one and all, I am your masochist.
