[OOC] Looking To Start An RP

More and more, it seems that my allies are attracting n00bish wankers of various sub-species and it is starting to become frustrating that no decent RP is available. So, for once I'm going to make an RP. Here's what I'm looking for

- I would like this to be a two nation/person RP, which means myself an one other person. No alliances, no allies, only the two of us trying to spin a tale for the masses and have a good time.

- It's becoming apparent to me that without near-constant communication and cooperation, good RP nowadays isn't possible. It's a sad fact, but a fact nonetheless. So, anyone wanting to participate in this RP should be willing to communicate by t-gram, e-mail, IM, etc. for the duration of the RP.

- An actual plot can be worked out later, but my muse is suggesting that we this start off as a peaceful colonization effort on different ends of the continent and then begin moving inwards. Eventually the two peoples would cross paths, borders of the explored territories would be established by diplomatic process, and then peaceful exploration would continue for a time. However, now there's a real rivalry to see who can explore and secure the most territory for country, which might degenerate into a few skirmishes with very light casualties. Whether it degenerates into a war for the continent now or later is entirely up to the second participent, but I would really like to keep it within the confines of the colonists and the equipment they have. Largely that would mean no OMG UBER armour battles leading to mass mobilizations and full-scale war.

Now, what do I want out of a potential RP partner, you ask?

- You don't necessarily have to be an established nation, but I'm going to ask that you have a couple RPs under you belt and that you can post them here for my review. I won't end up reading the entirety of whatever you post, just enough to see if I'd like to RP with you or not.

- I hope to have a new rival. My old rival, Rukemia, was a good guy to RP with and had no problem losing two or three conflicts to me, even though I was smaller. It created a perpetual tension that lasted until he quit NS and that's something I've grown to miss. So, anyone who wants to RP in this storyline should look forward to a few conflicts that might perpetuate themselves ad infinitum or might eventually come to a head in an honest-to-God knock down, drag out fight that ends in either, or both, colony's decimation.

Oh, okay. I'm on now, so go ahead and send me a message. Since we're allies, do you have a puppet you can use? If not, I can ressurect one of my old puppets and give you the PW.

Still angry at me? I'll leave it with this reply, but think about it.
