For starters, we've already been thinking about a few things given the setting.

@Thenomain We like the idea of taking what we KNOW and building off it with a bit of research and original ideas. Also, we're thinking of going with Montreal. As for the muties? We're still thinking about what beasts to actually use, and maybe even come up with some new ones.

@Shincashay That's what awesome Staffers and Google-Fu is for! Also, it shouldn't much matter either way once we get the wiki running should the idea take off.

@Insomnia So is the United States, and every other Fallout is set there. Also, we don't plan on making a grid for ALL of Canada. That's just mental >.< We're focusing on one location, with the possibility of visiting other locations that are close by.

@Admiral We plan on using the elements for the setting indeed!

@thenomain ^_^

This is a post copied and posted to a new thread so it doesn't get swallowed by other conversations from its original thread. Original thread is 'What Is Missing For You?'

SETTING IDEA UPDATE!

So, after chatting, we ARE considering Fallout...in Canada. Thoughts?

We have MORE ideas, but we don't want to give too much away from what our brain-meats her been churning out. Just seeing if people (a good number of them) A - Have interest and B - May be mentally stable to assist with Staffing needs. >.>

@lithium All goodness.

@kay AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh god...

First off, I wish I could @everyone and it work here! Thanks for all the suggestions and commotion. I still need to talk with the boys about this, but I also know our minds were floating around on...

• Original Super Hero Game (Though this may be unlikely, it's a possibility)
• Western Setting
• Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi
• Apoc Setting (Ah La Fallout or something similar without being branded by Bethesda.)
• Original Fantasy Setting

Note: I /adore/ Supernatural settings personally. So I'm tossing that here, too, as a high hope.

• Supernatural Somesuch

Fallow Up! The people who are wanting these concepts, are you more on a player level or able to provide possible Staff/Helpness? One of our biggest pickles is that we're Aussie. We can be on when we're about, but we obviously don't get to work with the more active RP community side of the globe.

@thesuntsar Indeed!

@bobotron All great ideas. I'll share the info with the boyos!

Hey all! So, after getting our feet wet on this whole running a gameness, my co-creators/staffers and I have been talking about secondary ideas for a different game. We have a few in our heads, but to try and reduce the over inflation of already HUGE genres, we wanted to start here with a simple question: What is missing for you out there?

What settings do you beg to see but just don't? What types of games do you enjoy that aren't being catered to as well, or as much, as you'd like? What favorite settings do you have that you would adore playing in and being a part of, that simply don't exist anymore, or if they do, need a new breath of life pumped into their lungs?

We're just getting our feelers out there to see if this is a good idea, and if we can help make this possible. It should also be stated up front that, regardless of topic chosen, we'll be hunting for extra Staffers who are State Side out the gate!

Thanks for any help and suggestions, guys! You're all darling!

Hey guys! Just wondering if people around here played Fear and Loathing (nWoD game) at some point. Specifically, I'm looking for Connor's player (Connor being a Gangrel, who's PB was Norman Reedus.) I also hope Connor was his name >.> I could be very, very wrong about that.

Oh well, hope to get some bites! Cheers! - (Nikkos)

@bobotron When looking at the boards, they're all listed as being set to '0' or to never time out. Though, some old posts are just gone

To help deal with this, I've made this instead - http://flashpointgotham.tk/index.php/Current_Hooks_and_Plots

I'll also be tossing up two other pages that will log the news reports.

@bobotron Good idea. We have the Gazette and GNN on game, but for some reason, posts time out even IF the timer is set to infinite. SO...looks like a new page of the wiki will be going up instead ^_^

WOO! Ok, what a write up. Firstly, thanks to everyone taking a moment to offer their suggestions. NOW! To the answers!

Theme - Can be revised a bit and clarified. Wiki update pending.

Coding - Sadly, we do not have a coder. She disappeared. Hopefully, she'll return OR we'll find a new coder that can understand her home brew. Granted, the few things we still need do not have to be as she has written since she didn't start processing those functions. For now, we'll work with what we have. I'll also look over what help files we DO have, and add some info/intel on the Wiki.

Help and Wiki Info - I'm currently trying to fix all game links to the wiki that are on the game in their @descs. Lil hunt and peck, but now that I have a couple days off, we'll get that sorted.

RP - We try to make all plots work around the characters, given they have basic ideas. Hopefully we can make sure this works all the better for those involved! Events are fully functional as well, but with our numbers, we usually just talk to people when they're around, more so than setting up times. Introduction of the Events will be soon, I believe. Maybe even a note how characters can talk to one another for RP and not have to wait for ST prodding. Granted, I understand that's not everyone's style.

Factions/HUBs - So far, everyone that's active that fits into a faction has their own channel. They're advised of this after they complete CG. These include Law, Crime, Occult, and anything else should it grow and come to our attention.

Rules - Unless I can figure out our +help system, I'll have to delay on adding the Powers to the game itself. The rules on the wiki as well, should there be any misunderstanding or review, usually get resolved and changed within the day. If this has happened with a player, they, too, receive and answer within the day. Apologies for any misunderstandings and frustrations.

I hope I got everything!

@tinuviel When we are able to be online (at least one of us is at any given moment when not sleeping or at work) we run plots, offer RP, and have suggested plot hooks/points and stories that are coming up.

Hey everyone.

So! Flashpoint has been up since November (yay) and the few people who did join and began playing were the best. After the holidays, though, life swallowed a great many of us, and our numbers went down. We knew of some ways to help aid the growth of the game, but even those methods seems to be at a loss.

Besides the standard ways of going about growth (advertisements, request of a State Side Staffer to fill the gap of hours that globes make due, multiple ways of contact regardless of being logged into the game or not should questions arise) is there anything else others out there might suggest?
