Look, I am doing God damned research and writing up some demons and fucking backstory since you assholes keep destroying the world I built by losing to the demons.
I mean, last game I had four guilds and interactions and shit. I am trying to top that.

Mine might be delayed due to medical shenanigans. Regardless, I will play it safe so that I don't have to cancel and restart another game. Especially this one. I am trying my damnedest to come up with brand new mechanics to keep you on your toes, while still adhering to my personal belief in what a phalla is.
Here, let me test my writing. The first two new demons I have for people to choose, I'll also be bringing some of my old favorites back (the powers will not necessarily be the same IF they are chosen).
Marchosias, the Prime Marquis: all other Marquis must bow before Marchosias, who rules the new council of Thirteen with her iron talons. Mighty, with wings of ivory that spread before the body of an alpha wolf. She teaches men languages, and speaks from the brass beak of a falcon strange words that are somehow understood by those who summon her. Bitter, spiteful, Marchosias did not become the Prime Marquis by playing fair. The patron demon of sinners, blasphemers, and false prophets.
"Hope is the greatest deception I can provide mankind. Bringing them to the summit of their ambition and then destroy the footing they thought was solid. The greater the hope, higher the climb, and farther the fall."
Great Marquis Orias the Malicious: Has thirty legions of demons under his command. He knows and teaches the virtues of the stars and the mansions of the planets (the influence of each planet depending on the astrological sign in which it is in a specific moment and the influence of that sign on an individual depending on how the zodiac was configured at the moment of his/her birth or at the moment of asking a question to the astrologist); he also gives dignities, prelacies, and the favour of friends and foes, and can metamorphose a man into any shape. As such, no reliable account has been given as to his form. To avoid the Malicious interference, one must always be on their guard.
"Great deeds require great sacrifices. If you truly hope to become the pinnacle of your race, to cross the sea of ignorance to the island of intelligence, you must pay the ferryman a toll. What will you sacrifice? Who?"

Also if anyone absolutely hates roleplay and doesn't want to play the game, I would not mind someone to bounce ideas off of and show my progress.
I haven't written and researched this much in one night since fucking law school.

Someone wrote a bbcode plugin for Notepad++. It's not great but better than no formatting at all (although the word I is annoying as it gets formatted).

My main will be Umineko no Naku Koro Ni Chiru. Not anytime soon, just putting that out there.
Ideally it will involve the more mysterious/crime-solving elements of the VN in some form.
While I've not run a Phalla before, I do narrate Werewolves of Millers Hollow a lot in real life.
If anyone were interested, I would think of setting something up with the theme of Paranoia! (Friend-Computer sends his regards).
I feel like a lot of interesting stuff could be done with it. I have done literally nothing for it so far far though, beyond a little brainstorm, but I figured I'd put some feelers out for interest.
There have been some games of that theme in the past, I think? The theme seems like it adds a lot of fun flavor. (Edit: To be clear, that doesn't mean you can't run one. I'm encouraging you too, it seems like a good idea!)
But what do I know? I basically sign up for every Phalla game I can :P

Delaying my game a bit until I am fully ready to take on the endeavor.

Library, Internet Café, hell even burger king has computers you can use.
And that dosent even count all the places that have wifi if you have a device for it.
I have done it and it is doable.

Don't you hate it when you come up with a neat mechanic then realize it would either swing to be broken as all shit or completely worthless?

I've got the whole week off from work, and hope to spend a good chunk of it working on my... whatever my thing is.

Posting signups early the morning, tomorrow sometime. Patience.
Hah! You should know I don't have that.
Well I guess you do now
Pokemon: A New [Phalla] World ended with a Team Rocket Victory
Congratulations to @EnlightenedBum for his hard work and Pokemon spirit in becoming the first Arcadia Pokemon League Champion
not Blarney,
Ebum and Munkus
For some reason I get those two (Munkus and Blarney) confused in my head all the time
Ebum is running his this week and into next, I would assume.
That leaves the very end of May for Munkus's main to start signups (which is what he requested)
Are there any other signups in the Main queue right now?
I mean, last game I had four guilds and interactions and shit. I am trying to top that.
I also have a Dead of Winter mini that's been tinkering with for some time.
Ebum - Now
@Munkus Beaver - On Deck
@MikeyCTS
K, then I can Signup to run Pokemon: [Phalla] Road of Victory

And it was so good... mafia and village having to work together to destroy each other.
Goddamn it is disheartening to lose all that work.
Sorry man.
That kind of thing has happened to me so many times...I usually use notepad first now.
Contact a mod - maybe they can pull drafts from the aether.
