Oh sweet! thanks for the acceptance, and as a Mane Character, no less! As for my opinions on the subjects you brought up... 1. Summer Sun Celebration sounds like a good idea. However, which one would it be? An alternate version of the one nightmare moon came back on? the one after that? (Which would be my suggestion.) Or way in the future? 2. I'm cool with longer posts. I just think we should give enough material for the other characters to reply to. That seems to be a big problem I've had here. And Canterlot sounds like a great place to start the RP. 3. Violence and Death is cool with me, and there are some characters I'd rather not see go, but if it's needed to push the story onward, such as Celestia or Luna dying, I can see how that fits into the story. 4. As for the original Mane Six, I could see some of them being reoccurring characters, such as Twilight giving insight into the Eight, or perhaps some of them coming into combat with the heroes. As for my own questions... 1. Would our characters already know each other? I can see how they wouldn't know each other, seeing as how some characters my character has never met in other RP's, but is this a universe where we know each other? Or it is just coincidence that we're all there together? 2. Is there going to be a posting order, or posting frequency that we shouldn't go past? Perhaps one post a day by each character, or have an order in which the characters post? 3. Pushing the story in the right direction. Where do we want it to go? Will we have talks in this thread about what areas look like, what's going on, who's where, and for errors in posts and things like that? I don't think we want too much OOC in the posts in the mane thread. 4. (This one's more for the other characters, since It's usually the biggest problem I've ever had.) Please guys, try not to have one sentence posts... It really kills the story. Some threads I've been in have derailed because of one sentence posts. Also, capitalization and grammar are a plus. 5. What if someone has to/does quit? Will a side character take their place as one of the Mane 4? Hope i'm not being too much of a bother, just want to make sure we have everything on track before we start going anywhere.
