Alright, so, I was mulling over some RP possibilities today, and I came up with something that could prove interesting and or fun to do. It would be a semi-structured RP, ideally, with a single RPer for each cast member of the RP. There is a basic outline, and some basic motivation for the characters, but otherwise, the RPer has total control. Now, the catch comes in that nobody can know what happens to their character in the end. So essentially one person (In this case me) has basic control over the events, creates the characters, etc, but the RPers actually do the main work, and it sort of plays out like a movie, drama can't be hurt by everyone knowing what's going to happen ahead of time, and adds a bit of tension that we don't get a lot of in RP.

So, if anyone's interested in doing this (I'm not going to post the story yet :P ), can you please say so. If I can get the number of cast members my current outline requires, I'll post up characters for people to claim and use, as well as a bit more information.

EDIT: Also, if this actually works, I'd like to see another set up like this, but with a different story and director

I'd be game... just as long as this doesn't turn into Big Brother Mk II.... Ie: fail.

Also, any word on the general setting/story?

As long as I can control a sociopathic professor I'm happy.

I don't have the whole thing written out yet, but it involves space, and dying, and treachery, and Jupiter.

That's all I can say with out spoiling the plot/ want to say at this time :P

If I can be a CNRP equivalent of Achmed the Dead Terrorist, then I'm good! :D

Or a pre-dead Achmed works too.

If there's a major villain involved, I want to be him/her. I'll still be willing to participate even if I'm not, but I love playing villains.

There is no specific villain, but there is one guy who... will not be in the greatest of mental facilities by the end (Crazy).

Nations of Iowk was going to be similar to this... :(

Once I learn more of the background I may be interested.
