We ended up only having a meeting on Wednesday, but it was large and productive nonetheless! For those of you who did not make it, here is what was discussed:


-- Seikh is delaying his creation of PSU DnD rules in light of his massive amount of mad scientist work.

-- Windy is trying to procure climate maps of the Earth, also likely for mad scientist work.

------------------------------

-- We discussed the "original RP" idea in detail. Though there was much initial confusion, we decided on a world-hopping theme that could possibly work like this:

"Time/space screws up. Some folks are sucked out of their home worlds and put into a time/space void. At times rifts open up and then get sucked into other worlds, after which they're spit back into the void."

This way we could RP in any number of video games, or in original settings on the forums, and have it all be part of one storyline. Though it was brought up that one may use their current characters for this, it is highly encouraged to create new characters for this story so as not to interfere with any current storylines or continuities.

Baruk suggested that there might be a "Quantum Leap"-like factor, in that the character's mind, but not body, is transferred to the different worlds.

-----------------------------

-- Windy brought up that there has been a lack of forum activity as of late.

-- In reponse, we should probably get some more social topics going again.

-- In addition, I personally plan on getting some of my own PSU events going soon, as many players seem to be renewing/never left.


If I forgot anything, feel free to post it. Also, I likewise apologize if I acted odd during the meeting; I have had the flu this past week and have been fairly out of it.

Truth be known I've always had an idea behind this (the Roleplay thing), but as you said...mad scientist work. I think I can at least give a base idea though soon. We'll see how that works.

I like the first Idea for the Original RP thing

That way I could play ALL my characters

Emmy, Satti, Jessica, John (Yes I have male characters, deal punks)

Maybe even Testament might show up <3

It'll be like the end of every Megaman game where we all sit in the boss room and then go into various doors, meet the requirement, then get thrown back into the boss room. >_>

I think of it as a kingdom hearts style, try that Ansie.

Worlds are randomly meshed together and stuff

Aye, though please downplay all the Kingdom Hearts references, Em. >.>

Many stories did it long before Squeenix, and did so considerably better. z.z

Time Stalkers, for one~

Yeah, I see something more along the lines of Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, with manipulations of space as well as time.

Meant MASSIVE lack of activity compared to just 3 months ago.

And why not keep the PSU uni block? only this time instead of just switching to a PSU universe with different people, we get alternate reality universes aswell. Course I just put PSU next to an idea, people will now start throwing rotten vegetables at it.

Well, we probably will. However, it would just be a part of it-- the point of the new RP idea is to use many games, so that people do not have pay/dedicate to one game to play with it.

And I'm not trying to be rude or pick on you, but you are exaggerating our PSU aversion just a bit. Results of an old topic aside, there have been several VG members (at least 14 by my count) still playing/resubscribing to PSU over the past week or so and they have been RPing frequently. One such RP led to a story event I will be posting later tonight.
