Specific MU request
-
Most of my time lately has gone to the absurdity that is the start of the semester, when teachers are frantic to put a dent in the syllabus, students (especially the icoming fall freshmen) have no idea what they're doing and do silly things like run around in absolute panic and turn the parking lots into a demolition derby. That sort of lovely thing.
But normally I am available for RP, and shall be again once I'm a couple weeks into this thing and people realize it's really not that freakin' bad.
In the few instances where I have personally turned down RP, it was because of time issues. In the one instance I have seen someone ask to be included in a scene and denied, it was because it was an already-large scene (which some of the players commented on sizewise) for a specific pack to do an important pack-related thing, and scene size + you're not pack = not this time, maybe next time!
Which I don't think is being cliquish, so much as it is practical. Which is another point: Just because someone wants into something, and does not get in it, that does not automatically a clique make. There could be legit reasons.

And maybe there isn't, and it is a clique! Who knows. Maybe it's not just a single instance, but a multitude of them. Maybe there are more reasons for someone saying they don't like cliques than just one. Crazy, right?

A side note: I'd freaking love to get more RP on eldritch. I'd play with anyone.
Page Jared. I play with lots of people. Though this also means I'm also often in a scene with someone or have something lined up for later that means I shouldn't start something.
I can say that Jared is pretty awesome, without Jared helping keep people in touch... I'd be pretty shut out of a lot of RP there.
Also: My werewolf pack needs more werewolves. I've got wolf-blooded but few actual wolves... For whatever that's worth I know wolves are highly limited it seems. It can be somewhat annoying since I made my PC with the idea of joining a pack not forming my own, but, everyone I asked said: Form your own, we need more packs, so I did and... yeah. /annoyed.

Jared (@TNP) being awesome: +1. Jared is really great at keeping people in touch with each other and finding reasons for people to RP (even if it annoys the living crap out of my PC IC, lol).
As for the low number of wolves -- yeah, we know. We're working on that. We have been holding off on reopening though because we have transitions (first changes, embraces, etc) to do for the first time ever, now that we have the code for it, and we wanted to make sure that there were enough open slots for the people that wanted them. Werewolf will be re-opening very soon.
No great comfort right now, I'm sure, but that is at least the reason for the current low number of wolves. We will open things up to new blood soon, though, and hopefully with that we can get people coming in already thinking about Packs they want to join/form.

Found some games, and am hopeful. Thanks to those who replied!

GoB was remarkably non-cliquey until kinda recently, and is still a shittonne less so than normal, in my assessment.

I thought GoB was awesome … except for that pesky time zone issue that kills my ability to play pretty much any fringe MU*.
