Questions

I have a few questions

1) Say I wanted to make a thread in The Circus. Would I have to already have a character profile elsewhere? Or could I just give a general overview of the character when I make the thread?

2) Do you have to make a sign-up before you make the actual RP?

More when I can think of more.

1. You can give a general overview of the character. You can create one in the Circus when you make the thread.

2. That depends on what you want. Many people usually ask for signups right away in the RP. It all depends on whether you want either an RP in which signups must be put in there or if you want separate threads (one for the RP and another for the signup).

Hope I helped you with your questions.

Regarding the sign-up question... I think I should elaborate.

I mean, could I not just make the description side of the RP without any sign-up at all, and just let people jump in whenever without any real OOC info on their character?

and
3) In The Circus, could I make an open challenge and let anyone battle my character, or would I have to challenge someone else and specifically state who?

Ah, I know what you mean. Well, really, in the end it's up to you. The responsibility is yours in which you must provide a comprehensive game enviornment fit for people to play and understand. Quite the burden if you ask me, which is why I use the magic of sign-up intro threads.

3) In The Circus, could I make an open challenge and let anyone battle my character, or would I have to challenge someone else and specifically state who?

You may do both. However, you must have a character created and ready for battle.

Now, as much as I dislike necromancy, I would like to make a comment...

Regarding your question about RPing without sign-up, or an OOC thread:

I've done it. I've done it several times, and I'm still doing it in a 'thread universe', with many threads representing many interconnected worlds/planes.

The character portion may be some work, but that mainly comes from having to attempts to regulate the several (but small), different plot ideas that others may want to contribute. In an Open RP, it's better to have too many ideas floating around, than too few.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to look through these forums, and see if there's anything I want to get in on.
