I don't know how alive this place is anymore, but will that stop me from making a last-ditch effort at advertising a comm that never got off the ground? No it will not.

Comments: This community is for people who want to practice their second (or third, or fourth, or...) language through RP. The idea is that you post in whatever language you want to play in, and hopefully other people who also speak that language will respond, and we can all have educational fun! Or something like that.

Native speakers of non-English languages are also welcome, as long as they're okay with playing with non-native speakers who may make mistakes.

It's a bit of an experimental idea, but I think it could be fun if it ever took off, so.

I feel bad having two of my posts in a row, but oh well!

I've been on the hunt for the perfect RPG for me and haven't found something I felt that clicked for me. Does anyone know of any good Sakura Taisen/Sakura Wars RPGs? I've only found one and it's pretty much dead. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I was looking for some journal based RPGs that are for original characters, but I'm not opposed to fandom characters being in the mix if a game like that exists. I'm looking for one that fits any of these themes: Post-apocalypse (without fairies and vampies, no offense), band/Jrock/Jpop/music, suvival horror, and mafia/yakuza. Oddly enough, I've been having trouble finding these. Everything is panfandom, dead or vampires.

If I can't find something that fits my wants, you might see me pimping out my own game here very shortly. :)

Thanks for any and all help!

I'm thinking of setting up a pan-fandom game (for those of you unfamiliar with the term pan-fandom refers to a game that in-cooperates characters from multiple fandoms), however I'm unsure if to use a board or journal format.

I prefer board role playing for multiple reasons (less time consuming for players as they don't need to set-up entire journals, and I think they give off better sense of setting as you can divide the forum into sections of the "world" and include descriptions), however I notice on journals (like live or insane) pan-fandoms dominate. While I have yet to see a pan-fandom hosted on a board. Is there a reason for this, or is it just coincidence? If the game is more likely to succeed journal based, I would make it journal based despite my own personal preferences.

Is it just me or do a lot of people mistake drama for quality in applications? As an admin I've looked over quite a bit of applications and it's a definite trend across fandoms. Well actually until recently before my canon list was pretty much filled at my Death Note RPG I was getting good applications all around. Then people started coming in applying for these originals (not a dive at originals as actually one of my players does exceptional original characters) that were...

( just not good. )

Hello, has anyone ever played A from the spin off Death Note Novel "Another Note" before or would like to try? My A player has just dropped and I like to fill the position as quickly as possible. The site is here, our time line is located here, and our canon application is here. But please, do read the rules first.

Our A was never very active however he did interact with B (and in this case they're not friends but have a relationship much more like Near and Mello) and has interacted with one other student called F, but not to a great degree. He should be sixteen years old, however as the previous A was not very active I'll let the new player change his look and personality however they like. If you have any other questions please ask on the board or contact me via AIM (bitinglibertine) or MSN (small_birdy@live.com).

So, I have this game where a canon character (not a major canon but still a canon) mun hasn't been online for about five days now. It's a board RPG so its not necessary to post everyday. However I have another player who recently joined with an OC but who has played the canon character before and has expressed interest in playing them at this game. Usually I believe in waiting a week before I begin to try to track a mun down to ask whether they are still interested in playing.

I think this mun has been online though we are not good enough friends that I have their AIM and I only have their e-mail, but we hang out in the same fandom places. However is this enough time to start asking or too late or too early? I wait three weeks before I decide a person is MIA but that's usually only if it seems like they lost their internet for a very long time and have no way of telling me otherwise.

Thoughts on the situation?
