Attention everyone who likes MWPP GAMES!
A POLL! Since I don't have a paid account you're going to have to use comments. Which is good, I want to generate discussion!

Would you be interested in a MWPP-era game? If yes, would you be more interested in a game that takes place AT Hogwarts? or AFTER Hogwarts?

Would you be interested in a MWPP game that is very war-involved/centric? Or would you rather a game that while the war is taking place and is used to keep plot moving forward it is not the central focus of the game?

Would you rather see the ages of the Black family members tweaked to all be closer aka in school, or plz don't break canon thanks?

Are there any characters you are dying to play again? Or try?

For in-school MWPP era games, do you like having a slew of premade characters, including who they are destined to marry and what spawn they are destined to have? Would you prefer to have it that way, or instead, have non-canon pairings (aka Lily/James v. Katie bell's parents) not set in stone? So the characters have a chance to come together and click before it's going to be decided who marries whom? Or maybe a mixture of both? Some premade connections, some left open?

Do you prefer games that operate in REAL TIME? Games that operate where it's one month in RL and another in RP life? Games that go 2 days RL = 1 day rp?

Any MUST HAVES for MWPP era games?

Any absolute PET PEEVES?

What are your preferred activity requirements? Journals emphasized more then logs, or the other way around??

ANYTHING ELSE???

Because I have an itch. That might need to be scratched. I really miss games like M75 and Madworld... and I'm letting the ideas steep.

SO INPUT. PLZ.

This post is left intentionally unlocked. For those who aren't on my friends list that want to give input. Non-friend comments are screened, though, just because I get paranoid about drama in the ooc sense.

I like the set up you guys had for Madworld, so basically the options that that fit. So:

-> In school
-> No preference
-> Doesn't matter to me if Black family members ages are tweaked or not
-> I'd like to play my OCish character again
-> I kind of like the whole premade thing and non-canon pairings both, so how about a mixture of the two?
-> Real time

-> I prefer a bit of an emphasis on journals rather than logs because they typically go quicker. But I'll go with the majority on this one.

# Would you be interested in a MWPP-era game? If yes, would you be more interested in a game that takes place AT Hogwarts? or AFTER Hogwarts?

After Hogwarts. While school games are fun, they're basically all the same after a while, and you never actually get to the meat of the war.

# Would you be interested in a MWPP game that is very war-involved/centric? Or would you rather a game that while the war is taking place and is used to keep plot moving forward it is not the central focus of the game?

War-centric would be fun only if there were sufficient ways to have people who are not in the OotP involved in ways besides running, screaming, bitching, and dying. Otherwise, just have an OotP game.

# Would you rather see the ages of the Black family members tweaked to all be closer aka in school, or plz don't break canon thanks?

plz dont break canon kthx. It's a silly, unnecessary thing to tweak.

# Are there any characters you are dying to play again? Or try?

I'd love to pick up Ted again, no lie. Dougie MacDougal was a fun one, too.

# For in-school MWPP era games, do you like having a slew of premade characters, including who they are destined to marry and what spawn they are destined to have? Would you prefer to have it that way, or instead, have non-canon pairings (aka Lily/James v. Katie bell's parents) not set in stone?

I much prefer having non-canon pairings left open. That way, you don't end up stuck in a ship with someone you don't click with, or trying to force one with two character interpretations that simply don't work together. On the other hand, if not for premade 'ships I might never have gotten Dougie and Elaine, and they were great fun.

# Do you prefer games that operate in REAL TIME? Games that operate where it's one month in RL and another in RP life? Games that go 2 days RL = 1 day rp?

Real time. Anything else confuses me.

# Any MUST HAVES for MWPP era games?
# Any absolute PET PEEVES?

Canonly het characters being gay. Any of the Marauders fucking each other. People forgetting that it was the 70's and that the wizard world tends to be culturally way behind the Muggle world.

# What are your preferred activity requirements? Journals emphasized more then logs, or the other way around??

I think activity requirements should focus more on the ultimate goal of a game: involvement. Thus, I'd say that if someone posts a journal entry that involves a good solid comment war, she's done. If she posts a log, good enough. Basically, I feel activity rules should be flexible enough to allow for different styles of play.

	Oh yeah, I'm also interested in Andromeda and Lily...but I wouldn't apply for either of them if I took Sirius. (Reply to this) (Parent)
