Vectors RPvP sign up thread!

**Tytanya_MxO**

Apologies I dont log in on thursdays so havent been able to attend any meetings.

I like the ideas I see here and the encouragement to rp in general seems very promising. Overall I take what Pblade suggests as very important, the more organisation and effort that needs to be put into an event the less likely it is to happen or to keep happening.

We need mechanisms for arranging events that dont require a lot of ooc work and organisation...the great benefit of vector is that it is a real immersive environment and we need to play upto that.

Warblade hit on one of the best mechanisms in his excellent posts in the NR section, his records of his rivalries etc can be expanded to arrange events and happenings (sadly my own artistic talents come up short here but..) every factrion has one or two gifted people either at a graphic or story teling level and they can set the scene, a factions activity can be displayed on the the events boards and future 'missions' can be suggested with a few key elements leaked as to time and location etc....if done well this can be both disguised or coded info, visual cues or blantant...ah e will meet silver at X on the 1st of may 13.00.... factions can respond in their own manner putting an evolving slant on what happens next to build a sequence of events shaped by everyone.

a few surveilance pictures can also soon indicate an imminent kindnapping attempt or a hit or a characetr with some useful infomation etc to help... (arranging a character to just stand around with a description contianing clues could be arranged as well etc... a family of Reame01...99 etc that we all watch for?) Luggerbles when the eventually appear will be very useful here as we can determine a server level importance to certain items and hopefully someone with some story magic can put an rp spin on things.....

Something that I've always thought was a good idea was "Live Missions" involving different orgs. We all have done far too many assassination missions, but what if the mission was against another team?

Example:

Mission: Assassinate Twaggy

Machine operatives recieve notice that the mission will be given out at a predetermined day/time (when Twaggy can be logged in) by a third party. They assemble a team of 6 and gather at a remote location.

Twaggy, being the popular stud he is, has a team of Merovingian operatives ready to defend him at a secure location someplace. The machines are given his location and 30 minutes to take out the target.

The third party stays on site and times the event (like a ref as suggested above). Maybe a team of Zion operatives drop out of the sky (like mission NPCs do) and try to stop the machines enroute. Machines kill him, they win, Mervs defend him, they win.

As you might imagine you could design many missions based on this format. This could also be very impromtu as well because all you would need would be two willing teams and a plan. I would, of course, be willing to organize such an event if there is interest.

I think that sounds really good..especially since, as you said, we could make alot of these by changing the situation and objectives.

Stop trying to appeal to my vanity, don't change a fact you used me as an example.....no wait never mind I like it cause you appealed to my vanity...wow almost forgot who I am, vain is the name of the game you know? lol I kid I love this idea though and hey if you want me to be the first red pill pinyata then sure I will do it lol I'm really liking the ideas people are coming up with, it brings me hope for not only Vector but MxO.

I'm very impressed to see Vector putting their "e-differences" behind and getting along to sort it all out infact I wanna help you all out in my own way too, during these RPVP events I will also be on the look out for factions who are doing a great job at the battles and in the role playing, as a reward for been a good sport of a faction how does your own advert on air on Exile Radio sound? to advertise your faction for recruitment, you can even select a member of your faction or you can have me doing the voice over for it, though I'm sure you would love to have your own members do the voice overs of the ads. So there it is, a nice lil reward that is open to any faction (this does not mean you suck up to me during RPVP or come after me every 2 seconds to get my attention. I will be there PVPin, role playing and observing for my own end for XRN and for RP).

Hey Twaggy how much for a dedicated CQPD advertising?

**Demoana**

That's a great idea Twaggy, and novel, love the fact that it's not the usual $ or sak bandanna being offered SMILEY

.

The only issue I can see with some of these scenarios though is that they aren't of a big enough scale. They're great for drama between two or possibly three factions, and should definitely be pursued....but there were what, 11 or more factions involved in this? The whole 'one event per week' thing shouldn't be limited to a couple of groups, or it defeats the whole purpose of getting involved in it.

I'm not saying that these ideas shouldn't be done. They sound like a lot of fun, but I think they should be done in addition to the weekly events that the involved factions are supposed to set up.

Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

**oranos**

I try to RPvP on my lowbies, particularly when I'm being chased but I get such illuminating comments as:

P3LON whispers>rp is ment for carebear servers where u belong

...Or words to that effect.

Good times.

**dzbull**

Everyone look to the player events section here until we have one set specifically for RPvP, and post any ideas you have for events or look for interest in the events, it's time we got the ball rolling. Seems there was an event just this past friday so hopefully we can get things snowballing from here.

Remember don't look to others to get things sorted, if you have an idea discuss it don't sit on it.
