Theme Test Market and Co-Mod Recruitment

Post by xofelf »

Welcome to the Theme Test Market & Co-Mod Recruitment Thread!

Feel free to post here if you want to gauge interest in a certain theme. Or, if you are seeking a co-mod or two to help you run a game, this is the place to ask! Themes aren't considered reserved until they've hit Milestone 1, anything here is considered Milestone 0. We'd also like to remind you to be polite when you're giving theme feedback. Stick to whether you would play it or not or if it would work well, don't be rude.

As a reminder to what that means, here are the milestones:
  • MILESTONE 1:
    Your game has a logo, forums are created, and a basic game outline has been created. The outline doesn't have to include challenges, but will need to include number of players and initial twist ideas. At the point where you're ready with this, you submit your game to the queue, and a listmod is assigned to your game. Your game is added to the "current/upcoming games" list in the queue thread.
  • MILESTONE 2
    : Forum skinning/graphic templates are completed, challenge ideas have been filled in, and twists have been finalized. The listmod in charge will give a time frame of when your game will run and announce a game classification.
  • MILESTONE 3
    : The game is fully completed: challenge writeups are done, intitial posts/permissions have been setup on the forums, and the game is ready to start. At this point, your game is ready to fire in the queue and casting may begin when it fires.


You can find the queue thread here!

RIP Upcoming Game Ideas
Show
Do I REALLY suck? That's up to you to decide.

Retiring from LSG's and Mish Mash, for the most part. If you want to contact me, I suggest going outside and enjoying what the world has to offer, instead.

Definitely DID suck, in the end...Probably.

This is pretty creative and the character selection pool would be big and fresh, I'd play.

Hey guys: Xof and I need a third for Survivor Broadway. The game has been designed at a high level (structure, challenges, etc). Someone who can be a well-rounded helper, or a newer person who would like to learn how to do things like forum design/permissions, etc would be welcome. PM me/xof if you're interested.

Especially someone who has a lot of time would also be helpful.

Genuine theme test


From meh to hype ; how do people fancy The Amazing Race?

Since The Challenge : Void was done in Discord and Discord has very friendly bots that can do custom command, I can see The Amazing Race done semi automatically in Discord, so I no longer have to be afraid of being a shitty unhelpful mod due to time zone issue.

If this receives good traction, this also serves as "looking for co mod" . As a pitch, I have done one Discord ORG with a team of 4 (1 is meh inactive) and apparently people like some of the challenges that I designed (and some are loathed. It's a little bit hit and miss for me. I'm learning ~.~ ) I would like to think that I (almost) enough stuff for Milestone 1. A little bit slow respond for the next days due to mid test though.

Edit: Yeah, I think I will be looking for co-mod. :mrgreen:

TAR is awesome. It's been run a few times on here and has been received fairly well, Xalxe and CC ran the last one I believe? I'd play again.

I have seen people talking about semi-anonymity a little bit. A game where you could voluntarily reveal your identity, but you're not allowed to verify it's you/chat outside of game, something like that. I wanted to use the forum of this thread to ask, do people think something like that is a good idea/theme for a survivor game?
