Hi all, This is my second post (was probated for 12 hours for my first post, no explanation given but I can only assume the post wasn't funny enough and the mods here (15+) are good arbiters of humor) You can find my first post here - https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=1&threadid=3949907&pagenumber=7&perpage=40#post510466973 I was linked to this forum from twitter and have been reading for the last few months, and one thing I noticed is you lack a a bit of fun and games, it tends to be pretty stuffy in here overall, which is okay. Most of the same threads populate the forum with thousands of posts in each and can be hard to jump into and catch up, ect. My idea: a create your own adventure, based on politics, some current events, and more! How it will work: I will take input from posts on how to create our character based on many choices, I will hire some voice actors to read the plot, and I will use MS-Paint to create some scenes and dialogue ect. Of course this is probably going to be a long term project but I want an interest check before I go ahead with this undertaking rather than ending up probated or perhaps, banned, before I get into it. So I'll use this thread as a gauge of interest before I go ahead and do this, which will probably start next week if feedback is good. Thanks in advance!

cyoa threads are fun, although having a strong concept from the start helps. but a brainstorm thread us a great way to create a concept. post apocalypse is a great theme maybe. overdone?

Yeah that sucks that stuff has failed in the past, but I've been imagining doing this (through twitter, which... seems impossible?) but I think a forum would be the perfect vehicle for this project. I'm hesitant to share too many details, but here is how I see it going: 1) The thread creates a character a) lots of options to choose from so that will determine how the story develops b) RPG like stats 2) The story a) I have a basic premise for the story, and certain plot beats. b) there can be a game over if things get too out of control / off the rails and the story can be reset 3) the world a) modern or near future b) parallel universes? I will do my best to make it funny and put a lot of effort into it including voice overs, sound effects, and dice rolls to determine certain outcomes This will all be written by me and the forum will live as the main character

Yeah I know what it's going to be, there are multiple big communities where this sort of thing is WAY bigger than it is on SA and here is the lesson learned from all of those communities: chargen is terrible and you should never do it.

Thank you, hopefully this will be just as good. Seems like a fair amount of interest, I will begin planning something to start for next week.
