    Any plans for it? The previous one was quite disorganised.

    How about Tang Dynasty? This seems to be quite an untouched era.

    I thought it was perfect, until people lost interest.

    How does an RPG work??? I can make sh*t up like, "I absorbed all your HP! you die!" Or is there some system?

    basically you can't play god. we determine a storyline. each player posts, and the story develops that way.

    I'm up for another RPG. But we do kind of need a mroe set story line to follow and then make up the rest.

    Maybe set up a storyline with markers that we need to reach (ex: having someone rescue a certain other person, finding out they're an illigitimate child, the character finally reaches the level of a great) and just make up the things inbetween?

    But I'm seriously up for another RPG!!

    something relatively short is good too. rpg 3 was great but because of its length, we often lost momentum.

    Out long ago. Wish they kicked me out sooner.

    I dun really mind any type of character - just assign me whatever you like.

    And I prefer to keep it short this time... At least < RPG 2.

    So you're not using any kind of rules system? It sounds more like cooperative storytelling than an RPG.

    I'm just curious. I've participated in a RPG as a play-by-post game before, but that was based on a commercially-published rules system.

    Last time this went around I tried to rally some support to cook up a real RPG system to no avail. Currently I've been posting on myth-weavers since someone there is trying to run a wuxia game in D&D 3.5 with Tome of Battle.

    Once every couple of years I work up enough motivation for an attempt at a wuxia rpg system. It's about that time again.

    Here's the result of past attempts:

    Incidently some of those references point back here...
    HK47: Now do you understand the travails of my existence master? Surely it does not compare to your existence but still...
    You: I survive somehow
    HK47: As do I. It is our lot in life I suppose master. Shall we find something to kill to cheer ourselves up?

    Should we make up some outlines or guides? That way we're not as... lost or lacking motivation or seemingly continuing an endless RPG like the last few ones? I remember the first one was definitely lacking plot until someone was kidnapped and then things began to flow from there, but then died.
