YOU suggested I be the ring bearer. My mind works mostly by association. Screw me.

Srsly. I'm not a great organizer of anything, but right under Atlas? The place where there's basically always a costume contest going on? That's about the worst place to do anything at all in the game.

Can I be there AND single?

I think the idea in the OP is that if your character is in a relationship or married that at least implies that you're open to RPing these things. And to a certain crowd, relationship equals regular tinysex. Not that there's anything wrong with that either unless they're humping the legs of people who put these things into their bios especially to keep that kind of RP at a distance.

I'd like to think most of the OP is kind of common sense, but you know what they say about that...

The whole 'literate RPer' thing was new to me. I wouldn't ever want to play with an illiterate one when the RP medium is entirely text-based personally.

As for theme songs, I'm personally not so much into them as character themes but as music to set the mood to a character. If a character has a very punk attitude, then I can bring that across in the music, even if the character itself is a fallen angel on a quest to find his lost love or whatever. And yes, I have had the occasional contact via the music choices listed in bios.


As a more general comment, I think there's more to be gotten from the way a bio is presented than its contents. Does it contain a lot of typos? Is it a jumbled mess or structured? Is it concise or verbose? Is the information at all useful to someone trying to RP with them? I'm not gonna claim one version is better than another, except that typos are generally not a great idea. I've written stream of consciousness bios, I've written ones that are just extra info that can't be gleaned from an avatar and ones that were external documents. I've had one-liners, I've had song lyrics and just plain old proper bios.

All depends on the character, but my aim with most of those is still simply to convey mood rather than information. No idea how good of a job I do in each case, mind. But that's what's really important to me in writing and reading. Whether they're erotic, mature or literate I don't care as long as I can somehow feel like I might care.

Psh. Get in line. Not like there wasn't a NATO plan to just nuke the main corridor through the German central mountains to block a massed Soviet tank assault into Western Europe.

This thread is now about how your country's most likely to be obliterated or would have been at a peculiar point in history.

It'd make for a cautionary tale at least. On the other hand, I apparently got my super power that night: Vodka resistance. If this was the Cold War I'd have made the perfect spy!

Just FYI, and just my opinion, but I find that knowing people's background is actually counter-productive where Formspring is concerned. Part of the fun is discovering new people.

General FYI: I came home tanked and not having eaten jack all day. 3-4 more Screwdrivers without soiling my KB in the process, I'm past the point where you wanna RP with me if you see me. Though I can still look, act and type straight. I think I just hugged a catgirl though and told her that I loved her.
