I am not having fun with this RPG

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Then don't post - unless you have some positive views on how we can improve it.

Perhaps you would prefer Zonko's - it's in the Games section.

[Scarlet Lioness]

And why is it that you're not having fun?

[lovegood63]

Because when I try to do something I am like ignored. And since I can't sign up for the post I wanted to because it was like a long time ago and it is inactive. Plus, for the fact that i dont know what going on with this whole entire RPG. I am probably just gonna quit this whole thing. I am not sure tho.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Hmm - I'm starting to think you would enjoy Zonko's far more than here. This is quite structured, and if you're not used to it you might not find it very fun.

I was kinda getting lost in the story with the plots and I hope you guys/gals can explain a little bit...

Hahaha, was Lupin acting on his own accord or was he under the influence of the Imperius Curse?
And erm... Dinas was on the good side or the bad side? Or was he like Snape whom no one really ever know which side was he on?

Sorry

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Dinas is a bit like Snape. He thinks what he's doing is right - he's a little more evil than good - or is he?
Nobody really knows just how bad to the bone Dinas is.

Lupin is currently under the Imperius Curse inflicted by the Minister of Magic. The Minister and Dinas are basically on the same side (although there is a little power struggle), and Dinas forgot to imperius Lupin, so the Minister had to do so himself - and a few of the staff to, to be sure.

Currently Dinas is seeking out Lupin to stop him, and Imperius him to his own will, not the Minister's. Because Dinas does not want to draw attention to somethign being wrong at the school - which would happen if 3 young students (the girls) ended up dead.

[choki]

Ok... haha that sounds rather deadly... a conspiracy?
But I wonder what is the reason everyone needs to be erm under the control of the Imperius Curse from Dinas and the Minister of Magic?

Hahaha, is it to stop someone from within the school that threaten to disrupt the peace? How about could it be the remnant of Lord Voldemort?

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Well.. Dinas and the Minister have to stop their secret getting out.

But neither of them are or were Death Eaters - and they're no Voldemort.

Just a clue: It has something to do with Dinas' upcoming project.

[choki]

Before we get the match started...
Can we have the namelist for the players from each team? So at least we can say xxx passed the quaffle to xxx, but was snatched away by xxx

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Just last names for now. You can make them a first name in the post if you want.

Mortin (cptn.) chaser

You lot can do Gryffindor...

Oh and my post didn't really follow the rules of Quidditch. Oops.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

I'm interested in your opinions about scrapping the less, unimportant rules, and having the only real rules as:

To score, PM me with the direction of your shot - left, right or centre.

The other side PMs me with the direction of the save - if they don't match, the point is scored.

I'll chuck the snitch in the game some time, and on/after the 5th post from that post, you can catch it.

If you try to catch it on the 5th post, you will catch it.
6th post, you'll miss.
7th post, you'll catch it.
8th post, you'll miss.

After and including the 5th post, every odd-numbered post you can catch the snitch. If you forget and post on the sixth after it or any even number, you will miss.

And that's it. But no double-posting in that to get the numbers up either.

Much more simple.

[Phoenix in the Ashes]

Okay so I've just thought of another problem...

With the scoring, as I'm the only one playing as Slytherin, there could be a problem, because who am I supposed to PM you know... to score.

And it just won't work because there won't be an impartial anywhere...

So far the rules have been cut down to simply Scoring, and Capturing the Snitch.

Would you want to cut it down even further, and have the only challenge as caputring the snitch?

I don't particularly want to, I think a scoring system would be great...

But how can it be done?

Suggestions for a revised scoring system then?
