CherryRie Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I am intrigued, do elaborate. Is there a specific story line or plot for characters to discover, or is it more of a spontaneous free for all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a specific story line or plot for characters to discover, or is it more of a spontaneous free for all? It's more of a free-for-all, however, there will be events such as races and lessons, which you must participate in (unless you are not there to RP, or your character is skipping it for whatever reason.). Also, at the end (I will decide when),everyone gets a flight camp certificate saying whether they passed or failed. (You decide.), which you can mention in other RPs.Any other questions?

RarityDash Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I'm somewhat interested. I have a pegasus filly who I kind of have trouble finding good places to RP as. Sending her to flight camp might be fun.I'd also consider having Gilda sign up as a teacher, but I'm not entirely sure she's responsible enough for something like that...

RarityDash Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Yeah. The Gilda idea probably wouldn't work. She'd be a terrible teacher.Sent my PM for the filly though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherryRie Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Okay, this is the excuse I've been looking for. I'll need to get her authed first, but fancy a volunteer instructor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CherryRie Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 I have a suggestion too. Given that if this receives enough attention you might be able to end up with multiple threads running from the central theme, it would be worth getting as many ponies participating as possible. Perhaps it would be an idea to have some short setup rps running first? I was thinking I could have Snowflake hanging posters in the major cities and towns, advertising the upcoming flight camp. They don't need to be particularly active, but it'll raze awareness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrossStitch Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 In the tone of Scootaloo, "I'm liking this idea!"I have a Griffin character who could be a volunteer teacher as well. I'll formally send you the application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CherryRie Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Well, I'd like to do a short rp before throwing Snowflake straight into the main Flight Camp thread. So I'll launch a one or two quick RP's in difrent areas of equestria with her haging up posters advertising the flight camp. Hopefuly this should draw some attention before you start the main one. What do you think? I'll bop a link into my siggy at the very least, thats another good way of drumming up some players ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherryRie Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 I've been thinking hun, what about having different bands for different flying skill groups, like they do in Skiing?Like, first time campers start off as 'Robins', then move on to 'Sparrows', 'Gulls' and finaly 'Eagles' (or what ever names we can think up for the difrent skill groups). There could even be a big campfire ceremony on the last evening where every pony gets awarded their camp badges for that year and a certificate or something, saying that they’ve passed that level of flight camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stainless Steel Fox Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 This might be a good starting point for Cloudius, my pegasus colt. His family has just moved back from Aquelia, where he was born, and I had a nominal idea that they'd moved back to Canterlot (dad is Honour Guard V, mother is an sociologist specialising in griffons, they both were long termers at the Equestrian Embassy in Talonopolis). But I guess he can be sent off to school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherryRie Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 But I guess he can be sent off to school.Think of it more as a summer camp in the sky, rather then a flight school. Lots of fun adventure activities and days out that happen to involve flying. Along with flight lessons campers can expect to learn about all sorts, such as sky-shelter building, cross contrary navigation and cloud sculpting.

CherryRie Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Okay, I’ve made a couple of assumptions here. Given it’s a flight ‘camp’ and not a flight ‘school’ I’ve assumed that there’s a communal hut of a kind where everyone has met up before being arranged into their groups. Not sure whether this is right or not, but from what I've read it seemed the most logical rather than just a small class room. I've also made the insinuation that there are a lot more foals at the camp then just our players. This leaves the door open to npcs and additional players later on.You mentioned via pm you didn't want too many tutors. So instead I’ve brought Snowflake in as a team leader, more of an organizational and support position. Is all that okay with you Dino? If theres anything you’d like me to change then just yell ^_^Lastly, I really really REALLY think we need to change the location of this to somewhere in the main rp area. There is just sooo much potential in this for expantion and it is a reall shame to leave it stuck in the private area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RarityDash Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Yeah, I was also under the assumption that we were in some greater meeting area amongst a crowd of young fliers rather than a private classroom with just our characters. I also agree about the thread's location. I don't really think it fits in the private area either. I was under the impression that that was mainly for one on one RPs rather than big group RPs like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
