Not to mention it won't be much of a spam topic to begin with since ppl won't be having fun in it, that i assure you!

I guess it could just end up as a Q&A topic, though. If people also add slightly humourous posts, with stuff like anecdotes and stories of failures, people would add more. The danger of that is that it would become a bragging topic.

Go here and this shall disprove the above...

Most of the forum games here are well thought out and complex. Which all also makes it fun. There are also several simple ones that aren't thought out, but aren't filled with useless stuff. The Death Note game orignated on this site til the creator got mad (i don't know what went on I wasn't there at the time). Several of the members brought it here for a while. It was a hit, but not is big as it is now that it is back over there. The game also began to spread to other sites and an attempted revival here.



Agreed.

Oh, Yugioh the Abridged Series immediately steps out of the boundaries of *any* rules, it's that good.

I think you may be sort of right; the death of the RPG correlated very strongly with the sudden exam season, and then stayed dead because people were doing other things over the summer that people forgot about.

To be honest, the best games are the ones that force you to think around the problem. King of the Hill's a brilliant example.

I agree although we don't play KOTH with good rules here, we just take the hill using anything...

Maybe we should make a rule that says we should have new actions instead of repeats of previous ones.

I think it should be more like...
First remove the defender, take the hill , put defences (so the next poster can remove them)

You'll still run out of ideas eventually.

Well, at this rate it'll never end :D

Can you suggest a different style of gameplay? I can think of a couple... But they limit the ideas available. Granted, you'd be able to turn it into a form of rpg, but what the hell.

Hmm, we should make a KOTH RPG game here... You do the honours :D

Much obliged.

Idea; King of the Castle. You have like ten people in a castle or some other location, and you have to try to take the Main tower using only things you might find in that location. In order to get more people in, if there's more than ten, you have to think of a way to switch them out, like climbing in through a window and throwing that person out. If we get rid of the killing stuff, like "I STABZ UR FACE WITH A FOUNTAIN PEN LOL" then we could elongate it. That person is out of action until they can reply with their escape plan. Example being that person is hit on the head with the flat of a sword, knocking them out. Attacker locks them into an office. Person wakes up, and uses a paperclip found to get themselves out. That sort of thing. It means that you'd have to think really clever about stuff, and there wouldn't be any counters from the person taking a hit. You might even be able to try teaming up with another player, that'd be interesting. Howsaboutit?

EDIT: Ooh, by the by, I will happily admit that this idea takes its inspiration from Batman Arkham Asylum.

Yeah i actually love that idea, very creative.

But let's introduce it in a new topic say "King of the Castle"
and put more post examples like so..

Person 1: I throw a shield at you knocking you down, then i lock you up in the stables
Person 2: I Wake up with horse shit around me and i get an idea, i ride a horse out bashing the gate and Toppeling you sending you to a moat
Person 1: I swim up the moat and as you are crossing the brige into the castle i draw it
Person 3: I rush up the castle riding my steed, jump across the moat and blah blah blah

Did i get your meaning? If not tell me i'm interested :D
