Emergency Rescue Plan!

[Cherrymage]

RACC is dying! We cannot let such a Hive miracle die and decay!

I know, things has gotten worse and worse as time flies... and RACC was close to death a few times...

Any idea to rescue RACC from death? Perhaps.. create an alternate RP discussion which bring us back to the times of Arygos? And develop it the new way?

 

[Chaosy]

To be honest I do not know if it is dying or not. WF says so, but I for one do not know as I am too new to know.

Provided it's true, I would guess it's because it has turned from everyone working together against X to many small 'random' RPs.
I stated this in another thread.

For the best experience I think it should look like this.

Another is big issue is the repeat factor. I do think one needs to revamp the RP quite drastically from time to time to keep interest and that feeling of something fresh and new. This is a bit of a gamble though.

 

[Cherrymage]

Yes, we need to have a big evil to keep things alive, and to keep people unified.

Just like the old days, when RACC people are united against Mythic the First Cakemaster (and Darko, Mythic's loyalist). Or Nekros' arrival in RP #1.

But another question: What/Who is going to be the big boss? Sargeras? My event is rather special; it can evolve and change into something different. So Sargeras may intervene and cause chaos, forcing us to unite against him.

Edit: Sorry, didn't saw that last part after the quote...

It's a risky move, but it may worth the risk if things are getting too repetitive.

 

[WhiteFang]

To be honest I do not know if it is dying or not. WF says so,

Trust me,it is.We had low activity for a while later in 2014 but nothing like this.This is deadly silence with 1-3(depends on how quick and if I can reply(I'm always stalking the group))posts every hour.And the people that do post don't really seem to care.I'm not feeling that vibe we had.As I told Chaosy,we have grown so distant,(I don't even read others' post anymore(except Cakey's posts directed at me and Vampiral's)) we aren't even a community anymore..Unless we do something to change this RACC will be gone by 2015

 

[Cherrymage]

We must change. Otherwise RACC will have the same gloomy fate other groups have faced (Kaelicious, The Order of Elders, The Dark Prophecy, etc.)

Question is, what changes must be made?

 

[WhiteFang]

Well,for one it needs to be a roleplay not a faction play.I swear you guys have 69 factions each.It wasn't like that in RP#1

 

[Cherrymage]

Yes. I have plans to erase lots of my factions.

How about a huge chrono disaster that occurs, erasing Vestrope (need to get Daffa's permission), Regime, Nod, etc.?

Perhaps in RP #3, I'll let only Deroc and his Pherith Empire be in the new world. VGI, and all these other faction play relics will stay behind (or get erased).

How about enforcing a rule so that only one faction per RPer may enter the new universe in RP #3

Yas! er gawd yas!
I'm not even taking a faction,neither do I want one.I want to RP not FP
Edit:That makes me wonder,have any of you(@Chaosy.you excluded) even played a RPG or been part of other RPs?

 

[Daffa]

I have played RPG yet never complete them, damn difficulty. Oh yeah, except Persona 3 Portable.

I'm in for total obliteration, like I give too much care about the freak going on with Vestrope.

Not like I also care what will occur with RP #3 factions, I'm solo character.

 

[Daffa]

Anyway, on an alternative, we might get an alternate RP that should be pretty strict about factions and universes, if we're up to it. Why? I evaluated Directive's RAEA and the RP #2 and see a major factor in the confusion comes from the factions. Having factions and universes in an exaggarating amount would be messy with little roleplayer number. I failed to evaluate this sooner which cause a major drop in RACC, I'm truly sorry.

What do you guys say for a RP with only Anti-Cake and Cake factions?

 

[Chaosy]

Maybe. I think it's a step in the right direction, not sure if I like the cake / anti cake idea though. While it suits the group name, it's not quite serious if you ask me.

 

[WhiteFang]

If we did the anti-cake vs cake we would be repeating ourselves and that's bad.We need something fresh.I actually have a idea for something new

I love you

 

[Chaosy]

Better elaborate if you want it to happen

 

[Cherrymage]

I think just make it the First Cake Crusade RP, and then it evolves, but no C&C or other futuristic stuffs.

Make it a parallel Vestroya, just like how that EA made Tiberian and Red Alert Universes separate.

 

[Chaosy]

No time travel complications, plz -.-

 

[Cherrymage]

There's no time travel...

 

[Cherrymage]

Should I start the alternate RP?

I would assume control over Mythic the Cakemaster and his Arygos, since he's inactive for a long time, and I love cakes! Cakes!

 

[Chaosy]

Alternate X is basically time travel. Aka WoD

 

[WhiteFang]

No time travel

 

[Cherrymage]

No time travel, nor any characters coming from the world of RP #1 and RP #2. Just a parallel universe.

 

[WhiteFang]

parallel universe.

 

[Cherrymage]

It's not time travel. Just Arygos, Egilian, Gryphonus and Eiramond? nevermind

Or just make a new fantasy medieval world, where there's still a cake crusade but no more Vestroya or Arygos stuffs?

 

[WhiteFang]

A alternative roleplay WON'T fix this.We tried before

 

[Cherrymage]

Then we must find another way... but what is it?

 

[WhiteFang]

Maybe you should just except that its over.It was fun while it lasted....except RP #2.I can honestly say it was not fun

 

[Chaosy]

I can't say for certain, but a major revamp/rework is needed if you ask me.

 

[Devin]

@Whitefang Well, i guess its because you kinda avoided the RP? i mean you created your own universe and just locked it away.

Most of the time you were roleplaying alone.

Roleplaying is fun when played with others

 

[WhiteFang]

@Devin.I would if you had anything interesting or creative to do

 

[Devin]

@Whitefang There was? it would have been just like RP 1

 

[Heinvers]

You know, I just love how you guys blame and jump at each others neck for the current situation.
Well done, well done.
Instead of looking for common ground you just nitpick yourselves for the most ridiculous of things.

~Passing through.

 

[WhiteFang]

@Devin.There wasn't.Stop pretending it was better than RP #1,because it honestly wasn't.It can't even compare to RP #1

 

[Chaosy]

I feel like saying #1 was better than #2 wont help with this issue, nothing personal.

 

[Devin]

@Whitefang I never said such thing, what i am saying is that you shouldn't isolate yourself in the roleplay, it's less fun.

It is your choice though.

 

[Daffa]

If all of you need someone to blame, blame me.
Might need to blink and slap everyone one by one

In RP #3 we need to aim for something like RP #1 does, since I find it more decent in term of gaming. But some rules from RP #2 needs to remain as enforcement (especially the event limit rule, but with more better enforcement), in addition, a stricter rules about factions, when I say strict, I mean VERY VERY STRICT. I'll get more detail on Prep thread instead.

 

[Chaosy]

Hail Daffa.

 

[WhiteFang]

See why I love this guy?

 

[Chaosy]

See why I love this guy?

Too late though x)

 

[Cherrymage]

I think that was also my fault.

That mess we have now would not be there if I didn't worsen things in the first place.

 

[WhiteFang]

We are all to blame.Infact I'm the one that fucked everything up.The blame is MINE.RACC started going downhill when I joined.I apologize,that I ruined the group.

 

[Cherrymage]

No, it's not you. It's me. RACC is better before I stepped in and ruined everything.

 

[WhiteFang]

Ask Devin,it WAS me.You did mess up a lot with your tech(Sorry,I'm being honest)but it was already a mess thanks to me.

 

[Cherrymage]

I just made things worse by tech...

But hey, there's still a chance... to improvise and revamp everything before it's too late

 

[Devin]

I think i am going to create an alternative roleplay.

 

[Chaosy]

As far as I know, they are not really popular though?

 

[WhiteFang]

nope.Each alternative roleplay died after about a week

 

[Daffa]

We only make 1 (or 2 was it?) and from what I see, isn't something that fits the taste of most roleplayers. Let's hope Devin's fit our taste.

 

[Leo Akastenix]

Dawn of Liyonv is Devin's releplay? Strange.... Who is Liynov?

I think we need Cake and Anticake factions only... like

Brotherhood of Cakes...
Cakepilson.....
Cookieridge...
Cupcake's Fury....
The Magcake Kingdom...
Anti-Cake Initiate(ACI)
Cookiets Union...
Regime of the Burning Cake...

 

[Chaosy]

No plz.

Is it that hard to come up with normal names?

 

[WhiteFang]

Who is Liynov?

Good question.

Cupcake's Fury....

I'm dead lol

Is it that hard to come up with normal names?

Depends on Race,faction,origin and universe but usually,no.Leo is joking

 

[Chaosy]

*narrows eyes*
Not so sure about that.
