My #1 post of 2022

Is this that thing that you like? (/j but also where would I be able to find it it looks interesting)

FSJFHSKFJSKHH I-

okay I will admit i was not expecting anyone to ask but holy shit/pos

Okay, so confession time, Kings in the Corner is actually a closed discord ARG that is actually on hiatus right now because of IRL things, however the mods decided to leave it as a sandbox for the players and we have steadily been descending into madness and brainrot (dreamscapes arc my beloved)

And so, I don't actually remember how we got on the topic but eventually a bunch of us came to the conclusion "being insane about the blorbos on the discord isn't enough, we need to subject the rest of the world to our brainrot, what if we posted on tumblr like it was an actual fandom with no context" and well I am giving context now but shhh don't worry about it sorry I took so long to reply, I just. there's so much...this is gonna be long- anyways since there really isn't any way to get kitc content besides the players brainrot spilling over, here~! (apologies for the way this is. not likely all that comprehensible)

The basic plot is you/your character has been invited to the Kingdom in the Four Corners where we have a King, Queen, and Jack for each card suit, and each player is/was assigned a suit based off of your vibes, and later on, just got shunted into diamonds due to the uh. tragedies. Anyways! Because of the way the invitation works, all the characters have the potential to be from different worlds and universes which has led to the colorful cast of characters including [looks at notes]

-Fallen London OC

-Twisted Wonderland OC

-An actual Warriorcat

-Doctor Who x the Beatles OC

-Charas from players own original worlds <3

-The personification of healing from grief who is also from pathologic now

-AND FUCKING HOMESTUCKED

All I really have to say about the last one is don't take any orange pills the Jokers give you. (The Jokers are... actually I should preface this with the information none of us take drugs irl, but they are the closest thing to medical doctors we've got so uh, if you want to take some joker drugs to get a funky hallucination to learn more details about the rebellion/experience the previous Ace's executions for yourself as a side effect for your stomach ache, well are they they guys you wanna see! Apparently Jokers start their training at age 10 and it's very fucked up and also there are domestic and feral jokers??? I am concerned.)

Honestly so much has happened in a relatively short period of time I don't think I could summarize all the important bits but some of the highlights so far include: -The Bitchless Allegations: King Dani of Diamonds (Incredibly Bitchless, the Universe told me-) accosted a group of candidates (Ash, Hugo(ne), Raevyn, and Riyo iirc) who proceeded to get his ass. He stabbed Hugo in retaliation with his fancy magic sword that he shouldn't have even really had, Hugo was spitting up red jewels for a while, and almost died. All Spades got free access to Diamonds tower though so uh,,, winning I guess??

-There was a bit more lore in the interim and some puzzled solved but to be honest I don't remember much-

-The Bear.

-Also the Hearts' resident gays Salem and Luci (Saluci beloved <3) (admittedly not together yet) hatched a plot to fake a fight so the could befriend everyone despite the wild and horrific state of relationships between the candidates. They fucked it up. Luci and Riyo's friendship will never return. Esp after the Hugone incident-

(And oh yeah, Riyo punched Luci at one point, breaking her face revealing the fact she's an artificial being made of porcelain and some sort of magical energy and I may be getting the lore wrong but she's so cool-)(Salem helped patch up the hole in her face with a pretty glass mosaic and waaaaa)

-At one point the 8 year old Diamond, and 11 year old Club stood on each others shoulders wearing a trench coat and called themselves "Painsley" (Paeden-Ainsley) to try and get joker drugs. They failed and only got glitter, and it was hilarious

-Olive the scientists experiments with almond water, I genuinely have no recollection of the details alas, but i have been told it was very neat and was unknowable by science. Also he got an entire almond out of it.

-One of the Most Days Ever: our small 8 year old boy made of clay had been recently possessed by a 45 yr old catholic man, who, while he was cooperative at first in helping getting Paeden back, soon realized if this went through he'd die, and so he ran off into the woods after burning the notes, and so candidates were sent to chase after him. It. Did not go well. (while the chasing him down and catching him went quite well, after the catching... not so good)

Hi! Can you explain what non system littles are? I've been looking everywhere but I cant find anything.

Of course, though I could be wrong about this subject. Non-system  .l.i.t.t.l.e.s.  are regressors that uses the term when they’re regressing, despite not having dissociative identity disorder.

They can be found under the  .l.i.t.t.l.e.s.p.a.c.e.  tag (without the periods)

[famedroleplayarchive]

There won’t be an activity check today and you can count it as a free week because I have some big but hopefully not too big news. Famed is going to undergo a restructuring, and this is going to involve me asking everyone who would like to remain in the group to resubmit an application to keep their muse(s).

To be clear, this is not a complete revamp. Most of the major processes of how the roleplay work will not change and claims and development on muses will be able to be kept unless you put them in a majorly different position (in which case, claims that will no longer work can be refunded!), but the the size of the roleplay will be cut down over half from 135 spots to 65 spots. Many of the groups will be merged and all will be changed to some extent so that we have a total of thirteen groups, all with four to six members instead of the over twenty groups, many of which are rather large, we have now.

I want to disclaim that I know there will be members who connect less with the roleplay after the restructuring. I also want to apologize to anyone who is inconvenienced by the changes made, but please know I am only making these changes because I feel it is absolutely critical to the long-term life of the roleplay. A restructuring of some sort is something I’ve been thinking about for probably over a year or so now and I’ve been trying to avoid it for the sake of disrupting everyone as little as possible, but it’s become apparent to me that it’s necessary to keep the roleplay going, not because of member activity but because of my own ability to handle everything as an admin. I created Famed over four years ago when I was in a much different place in my life and had very little experience with idol roleplays and no experience at all running an idol roleplay, so I haven’t always been totally happy with how everything is set up. While I always did my best to make sure I was confident I could handle things before adding anything else onto my plate, naturally, several major life events have occurred over the past four years, especially the last one, that have altered the amount of time and energy I can commit to roleplaying, often making it draining and difficult to manage the group at its current scale.

Taking on another admin or mods would ultimately mean quite a bit more being required of me for at several months in order to evaluate any options presented to me and to help introduce a new person to all of the intricacies of the roleplay at a speed we’d both we comfortable with. It would also require me to be able to find someone I would be confident placing that responsibility on since I wouldn’t want to do it by half measures, which isn’t a guarantee. With all of that considered, I feel that this restructuring is the best course of action to keep the roleplay alive for the foreseeable future instead of risking my own discontent and stress leading to a fizzling out of the roleplay. The changes being made are all ultimately being made in hopes of making a more enjoyable and sustainable roleplaying experience in the long term for everyone involved, including me on the admin side and hopefully members as well!

Speaking of which, this will also be a chance for members to look at their own experience in the roleplay and muses and make their own changes to their muses as they find appropriate for improving their roleplay experience. I’ll be asking everyone to send in an updated application for the new changes since some details will probably have to change for every muse to some extent. Members are welcome to change what they feel necessary (or might be required by nature of the changes), from the muse’s group, to their position, faceclaim, age, background, etc. This means you’ll be able to pick new past claims made on your application too and a new past claims system is being put in place that will actually allow muses to have a more established career in their backstory! You’ll also be able to potentially refund points claims made that no longer fit changes you have to make to your muse, but that will be handled once the re-application process has been completed.

New main blogs have been created for the purpose of having a fresh start void of any old information that might still be lingering around blogs that will no longer be accurate. The new structure of the groups and companies can be found here on the new main (the URL will be changed to famedroleplay tomorrow!). On August 15 at noon EDT, exactly forty-eight hours after this post, I will be opening up for reserves to keep muses. You may only reserve spots for existing muses at this time, not for new muses, and muns will unfortunately now have to be limited to a maximum of three muses due to the decreased size of the roleplay.

Currently in-use faceclaims will be held for the muses they are used for unless the mun chooses to reserve a different faceclaim for the muse or until the period of accepting applications for keeping muses is up. Since groups, positions, and model groups have been moved around so much, I decided not to assume the assignment of positions to any muse, so it will be up to muns to reserve the spot they feel best suits their muse. Everyone will get a couple of days to look positions over before reserves are accepted to make the reserving of positions as fair as possible. I plan to do three acceptances on August 18, 22, and 25 that will be reserved solely for those applying to keep their muses, and the August 29 acceptances will be the first time we open for new muses again. Activity will start up as normal on August 22!

Members planning on keeping their muse may continue to write during this time if they’d like and work out that they’ll be keeping those plots, but points can’t be collected for anything that wasn’t already in progress since you might end up retconning it anyway.

Thank you all in advance for your understanding and I hope you’re able to find this exciting in some way! I know I’m hopeful for what I see as a fresh phase of Famed. Famed version 1.2, if you will. I’m aware this will likely be the end of the road for some who aren’t as interested in the new structure or can’t find muse within it or just don’t agree with my decisions, and to anyone who finds this to be your parting of ways with Famed, thank you for the time you did dedicate to the group! I do request to please avoid sending rude messages for the sake of being rude if the restructuring isn’t your cup of tea, but I will be sad to see anyone go who does leave. The alternative was me most likely, at best, having to put the roleplay on hiatus by the end of the year to take time to deal with real life, so this choice has been made so that I don’t have to do that and I can keep this home for so many wonderful muses running as long as possible!

A post with more information about the process of re-applying has already been posted to the new main by the time this post goes up. Check out the updated FAQ on that blog as well since it highlights a few of the more major changes already!

summertime is not a good friend.

 -       Tommy is 12 when he's assigned as a right hand man to a war general.      Far too young, the world thinks. Far too immature, the world says.        It is a war for peace, but not one a child should not carry the burden of. It is a war for hope, for prosperity, for freedom, but not one a child should be the right hand man of.       The child that is the subject of discussion does not understand, nor does he disagree with his placement. It is not for a long, long, time that he realizes.  -       In a few months time, the ages of the rest have been revealed.       A friend that is 13. An enemy that is 19. An outsider that is 19. A son that is 15. A girl that is 18.       The words pass through the minds of the watchers, only fueling them to have the world they carefully spectate fall in shambles. Some say it's sadistic, that it's cruel, but no one listens. Not even they can stop themselves from seeing what comes next. -  [Discussion Board Opened!] all hail sir billiam 23 min. ago lmao these losers saying its "problematic". get off of ur skyblock island sweetie, they're fictional <3 -- 18 replies  Skye [on hiatus!] 23 min. ago  Um they're not fictional?

He cares for his brother, he does his best for him, and he knows he loves him back, despite the situation they're in. Tommy has done his best to bring his brother back to the way he was once before, and even though they both know it won't last long, they both put on a facade for each other. -       A young boy, the age of 16, watches as another boy, only three years younger than him, loses almost all his hope. This young boy does not matter to the state of this world, and he never will, but it is the impact that makes it so important.       The boy sits near a tree on his island, giving up hope himself. -        A girl slaughters her way to victory in small matches in her area, knowing much due to her ability to find sufficient role models.       Sufficient role models that happen to be revenge-filled adults that seem to not know they're torturing children, but it doesn't matter to her. It doesn't matter to anyone, in fact. No one cares when the world hinges on the fate of 14 year-olds who shouldn't know how to handle a crossbow, but so do nonetheless. -  frog-enthusiast - Follow man. i never thought i'd be making this post, seeing as i'm one of the more popular members of the dsmpblr community, but i'm done. i won't deactivate this blog so other people can still see it, but i probably won't be posting ever again. fuck everyone who condones this shit. -       Tommy is 14 when he begins to finally lose his hope.       He hasn't yet, despite what everyone else thinks. He is still holding onto it, not for long, but he hasn't let go.       But the world seems keen on having him release his grip, and he does, eventually.       That day is not today, though, and Tommy Simons still lives. He lives in a, sadly, different and changed mindset, but is still the same Tommy Simons.       He cannot say the same for his brother. - THEORIES ABOUT THE DSMP Kadoodles 696K views - 3 days ago MCC 9 Interview - Tapl's thoughts on DSMP, HBomb94 talking about L'cast, and more!

It's no surprise to the people who chose this demise, but it still is a burden to carry. To be known as one of the people that sentenced a child to an early grave is something not a lot of people personally like.       They keep on watching, though. Nothing will stop them.

As some of you might have noticed... There may have been some... Stirrings over here over the last few days.  And, yes, that is indeed the case. After over two years of absence, Mod Jazzy’s returned, and brought along yet another familiar face, Mod Caesar from adventurous-amyne! I firstly would like to apologize on my own behalf for such a prolonged and unannounced absence. Life, as it often does, got in the way of my work here, as was somewhat noticeable towards the tail end of my posts leading into January 2017. 

I don’t want to bog you all down with excessive detail, but to cap it all, I ended a very painful, mentally and emotionally straining relationship (I won’t mince words, it was abusive), my living situation became somewhat dire temporarily, and my overall health took a bit of a tumble. I also took up another major and a minor to make sure I could graduate from Uni on time 8 n 8. Regardless of the circumstances, I wish I had at least announced that I needed to take a hiatus, and I’m sorry for that. I’ve missed this community dearly, and I hope to be able to pick up where I left off, with a few minor adjustments, of course! [From Cae++ Jazzy and I have been through dire straits, and finished fording them only recently. If anyone recalls what I was doing before my page was deleted- I was doing a giveaway and mentioned that my roof in my home was leaking. Fast forward a few weeks after that, and some health issues of my own, and I found black mold and fungus growing from the source of the leak. Gross- and also incredibly unhealthy. Thankfully, it wasn’t septic.  Anyway, I was thoroughly screwed over on 1000$+ bills from the other two roommates, police nearly were involved, I had to relocate practically overnight to a relative after gutting the rented house completely to clean it of the accumulated junk from 6 previous roommates, and my own mental health took a drastic downswing. I’ll spare the details, but I will say I nearly flunked out of school. Jazzy and I had to support one another during this time, due to their own housing issues and mine own, and the fact that the relationship aforementioned was actually a mutual of mine- a long standing one that spans the better half of a decade now and was altogether a very messy scenario. 

But fast forward to now- she and I have better and more secure housing situations, are fixing to finish school, and have emerged from our dark little patch of forest to face the light of day again to throw some art at you! 

She offered a space on her page for me since, like usual, I need handholding to be consistent with literally anything in my life, but that’s neither here nor there. The age of Cae++ and Jazz starts now!]

So, with that little tidbit of explanation aside, I’m sure the next question is, “Hey, Jazzy, when the heck are you gonna get to those ask queues? When are we gonna start seeing in character posts, and all those characters you teased three darn years ago??” Ha, just kidding, I asked myself that. And I have an answer! Starting Monday, February 4th, 2019 (unless otherwise stated) posts will resume in queue, posting thrice daily (and then twice daily about halfway through) until the queue runs out towards the end of the week, and then the blog will be open for asks once again! We are both looking forward to reconnecting with old friends, and making tons of new ones, and we hope that you’re as eager as we are to get the ball rolling! Thank you all so much for your patience, and keep your eyes open come Monday! Until then, if you all wouldn’t mind helping to spread this around, we both would be incredibly grateful! <3

[nationalpark-rp]

hello! i've been attempting to make my own group (i had one a while ago, and i've been trying to remake it) and i've been asking a few groups around about some pointers to pick back up. my main wonders and concerns are how we could get good publicity, and what to do in situations where times seem bleak ie periods where you really don't get much activity coming in. thank you so much for your help!

Hello, dearest anon!  We’re more than happy to answer your questions, as they are all very valid concerns.  Running a group isn’t easy, and it can be difficult to figure out what works and what doesn’t work when you want to keep one going for the long haul.

I have a lot to say on this particular topic, so I’m going to put the rest of my response below the cut.  I want to help you out the best that I can, so I hope what I have to say is beneficial for you.

When I first opened the National Park, I had zero experience at modding and running a group.  But I knew what I wanted to do and what I wanted to accomplish, as well as the steps I would take to achieve those goals.  It’s important that you have a resolve and a purpose—without one, it’s possible you might feel helpless or directionless when it comes to your group.

For starters, you’ll have to ask yourself—and have a definitive answer to—a few questions that will be the core of your group, regardless of the fandom it’s in.  Some of these questions include what your group will be about, and what guidelines/standards you will put in place in order for the plot/genre to not only make sense, but to work well for RP writing.  How will you structure your group?  What makes it unique and interesting enough for people to want to join?  Do you have the time and energy it takes to commit to running your group without help from other mods?

And this is just the tip of the iceberg!  There are tons of other, smaller, things to think about when it comes to running a group.  I constantly think of different scenarios and questions for myself and for this group, so please take my advice with a grain of salt.  How I mod and what I expect from a mod in any group can and will be different in varying degrees with other groups and their mods.

So to address your concerns about how to keep going when the going gets tough… that’s a tough one.  Every group, regardless of popularity, will have periods of slow activity just as they have periods of super quick activity.  It’s these slower times (particularly around holidays and exams, for members who attend school) that can really make or break a roleplay group.

For most now-inactive or closed groups, I have found that these groups often fail due to limited activity or interest in the group.  The mods of these groups ultimately agree that it would be better to shut down the group than to keep it running at that slower pace.  My heart goes out to all of these groups where so much love had gone into them only for the mods to lose hope and give up on it.

My advice to you is to not give up.  You need to stay optimistic.  As people become busy with their day-to-day lives they will have less time to roleplay—and that’s okay.  These things happen!  We’re supposed to focus on our real life responsibilities first!  But when you have a lot invested in your group, it can be difficult to stay optimistic and to keep trying, especially when activity dwindles.

You have to keep trying as hard as you can, and you need to believe that things will get better and that activity will pick up.  If you lose hope or give up on your group, your members will notice.  The moment that you start to falter, the group falters.  And once the group falters like this, it dies.  I am so sorry that your old group failed like it did.  But I want to help you.  Trust me when I say that things will get better.

One thing that I enjoy doing for the National Park is to think of cool new ideas that I can either incorporate into events, or some other quirky scenario.  Our group is unique in the Pokemon fandom for the fact that we have multiple events year-round as well as two additional side blogs to supplement these ideas that I have.  I want to create a great experience for our members—these blogs are an extension of that. 

So if you feel that your group is stagnating, don’t be afraid to try something new!  If you’re invested and excited about an idea, flesh it out!  Write a fun little post and get your members involved!  Better yet, join in with everyone else for that idea!  If you are excited about it and get involved, chances are your members will, too.  Your members joined your group because they saw something special in it.

It doesn’t matter how many members your group has.  All that matters is the fact that these members, no matter the number, care about your group.  They saw something special in it.  Hold on to that feeling and don’t give up.

Good publicity, on the other hand, doesn’t come from you.  It comes from your actions, both on the group’s blog, on the dash, and in your group chat.  It comes from how you and your mods answer questions and how you treat your members—not just your friends, but everyone.  Favoritism is not your friend.  No one person should get preferential treatment over another; that’s neither professional nor ethical.  This includes you, the creator, and your mods.

As mods, it is your job to remain forthright and transparent to your members and anyone else who may be interested in your group.  If you or your mods need a hiatus for your character(s), you’ll have to have it answered as if you’re a member of the group—which you are.  If you have a second or additional mod(s), it’s important that they (and you) don’t answer your own ask.

Good publicity comes from a ton of factors.  A group’s popularity is dependent on the happiness and overall satisfaction of its members.  Word of mouth is the single most effective way of gaining interest in your group; promoting and advertising your group can only do so much.  And if it is a slow period, and you don’t have a lot of members, promote anyway.  

It is so, so important that you and your mods believe 200% in your group.  Even when things look bleak, you cannot give up.  When things are slow, it’s up to YOU to liven things back up.  Your members joined because they like what your group offers—they depend on you to keep it going.  Take this to heart and you’ll succeed.  I genuinely believe this is the key to success.

I sincerely apologize for the lateness of this response, but I hope that you have found it useful.  Running a group is hard work and takes so much effort to maintain.  But if you have the resolve and a love for your group, you’ll find it much easier to make it last.  Just don’t give up.

If you have any more questions or tips on how to help your group, please don’t hesitate to message us again.  You can even IM us if you wish—we’re more than happy to discuss this more in-depth with you.  Good luck with everything, my friend, and I hope that your future endeavors are filled with wonderful memories.  Take care.
