Clockwork Pirates (A Victorian Steampunk RP) RE-MADE

  • So many newbies lately! Here is a very important PSA about one of our most vital content policies! Read it even if you are an ancient member!
I think we are all more than ready for a CS template, to say the least.
 
We are so on top of things. :bsmile:

I have a feeling we are going to be big post monsters!
 
I'm a reactive mirror poster, but I don't like novels for posts and I'm posting from my phone.
 
Or I try to mirror the people I rp with.
 
I make big posts....usually 6+ paragraphs LOL..or more depending

~ Big post's are my thing as well... I think the longest I've ever written is 10+ ^^

Same!! 12+ is the longest. 6+ is average depending on what I'm writing for
 
It honestly for me depends on my inspiration that day and if I'm not having writer's block.

Though when I get out of writer's block I go writing crazy :D
 
Lengthy aren't really my thing :'D jk. I'm guilty of posting novel length sometimes; but the length of my posts mostly depends on how much there is to respond to.
Don't want to have people read through 10 paragraphs of minimum 5 sentences if it's all fluff / filler. I've found that my posts are usually a minimum of 2 paragraphs with 5 sentences each.
 
I would call myself a reflective poster. The more others are posting, the more I tend to post, since I typically either have more to work with, or feel more inspired/obligated to write more! Sadly, that also means the less I have to work with, the less I post, although I try to post a couple paragraphs, minimum.
 
Do I have to have steampunk stuff? I'm not familiar with this yet. I guess I can try to fit into whatever your characters will be, but still.

Okee dokee, thanks for the info~
I worked with a bunch of engineers for a short time so I know there's just a lot of things and just a bunch of particulars for their various fields so at first I was sort of overwhelmed by such a broad term XD.
My character will be sort of a Mechanical Engineer in that case. And I believe (unless he told me something else and I'm a liar) @KamrenReed was going to do more electrical engineering. Together they will make the sky-boat fly~

@Majem

If it helps, Steampunk is really just a world running off the technology of a fictional late 1800's (1870-1890s) and early Edwardian technology (starting in about 1901).
((That would actually make the original Bioshock a poor example since it took place between the 30s and ends in 1960, but Bioshock Infinite is a good example if you happened to play it))

What's nice about the genre is it encompasses quite a bit. Westerns for instance.
I actually had to write a thesis on the genre in college so I'd be happy to lend a hand if you find you need it. Though honestly, I'm sure whatever you come up with will work great :D
 
I still have Harvester's bio saved. XD I can change it if the CS is different than from before.

No, not at all :) They can be completely human without any steampunkish limbs and or maybe they just prefer the traditional way of living. Just know that it is going to be hard to live without anything steampunk in a Steam-reliant world ^^; but it's definitely not impossible. So be creative and do what you wanna do~

No probs dude :D I'm just glad that I kind of got my point across without sounding like a complete prat ^^; I'll be looking forward to you and @KamrenReed Teamwork~ Speaking of which...Kamren sorry for the late response and being unable to tell you in the private chat but you're accepted as one of the RP GM's :)

Alright now this is for @EVERYONE

I read through all the messages and it's awesome that everyone is ready for the chara sheets! A thousand apologies for not responding earlier but it wasn't until now that I found time to write something back to you all ^^;; But anyways I'm sure you guys would rather have the good news first! :D I'll be posting the worksheet up now but keep in mind that I am NOT looking for completed character sheets on the interest check thread. You can share it through private messages or turn it into me for an early acceptance so you don't have to worry about all that jazz later on.

Yes! I saw that private message, sorry for not quickly responding to it ^^; But yea I'd appreciate another pair of eyes to look over the CS and see if there's anything to revise, subtract, or add (basically mathematical it xD).
