[size=1][indent]If you have not, please read what's in the sign up thread first before reading the following. You'll find the sign up thread [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=54625]HERE.[/URL] If you did read it, here's the deal. In the RPG, you'll play an employee in this office building. We're like all one big happy family. Well, minus the happy part sometimes. A lot of drama flies around the office whether it's from things that occur during work or at home. Employees may get close or kill each other. Both have happened before.

Basically you'll not only control characters' lives during the work day, but also when they're outside work. Maybe they're all going drinking after work one day. The RPG will go by days. In other words, I'll say when a new day begins (12:00 am) and when a day will end (which is when the new one begins, obviously). So things will happen through a day. This is important you read everyone's posts because you don't want to speed up time to get to 6:00 pm while someone else still needs it to be 4:00 pm.

This is a comedy/drama, so you can do what you like. I'd rather have a limited amount of really dumb humor in it. You can go ahead and have funny, sometimes immature stuff, but let's not crowd the RPG with that hogwash. It can ruin a good thing. I should know. I write that crap all the time. Go ahead and create problems in the workplace. There may be tension. There usually is since the office's coffee machine unfortunately is always broken. People don't have their cup of joe to keep them going and may want to kill. They will have a taste for blood.

This is a pretty open RPG. I just ask you keep your sign ups original and do your best to make the office interesting enough. I don't plan on having this RPG go for too long. The concept can be done with a short amount and still be done right. Dragging it on for too long may kill it. So if you're interested, hit the sign up thread. I thank you for your time reading this.[/indent][/size]

[size=1][color=royalblue]*raises hand* Ah yes, Mr. DW...I've got a few questions.

- What type of company is this? Is it an electronics company, which therefore has overseas stuff? I'm throwing this out since my dad works for a phone company that has projects in Taiwan and the like. They have posters and markings of where their towers are, etc.

- When's payday? It's the happiest day for an employee. =)

- How many floors are to this place? Hell, how many employees are there? I'm asking for...uh...well, to be honest, I'm asking for my own sake. >.O

And thanks for taking the time to ask my stupid questions. =D[/color][/size]

I left this unmentioned for a reason. If I had mentioned what the company was about, then it would have limited us in some ways, not to mention some people don't know what goes on in an office. This way, those who don't know what happens in particular office buildings can use what knowledge they have and make an interesting atmosphere still by using the cliche idea of what office life is like. I'm sure the name of the company will be brought up, but we will not mention what we do. I assume we might actually do a little of everything considering we have a graphic designer for ads on board.

Haha, well, I'm guessing Friday? TGIF, right? ;) Let's make the current day right now a Monday, so we got a while to go.

Hah, well, I'm not sure. It's a tall building and I guess this is yet another thing that should be left unmentioned for the sake of originality. Stating how many floors is actually useless information as is how many workers there are because I may end up giving an unusually large number of 30,000 for employees since, if it is a big office building, there may be that many. And why would you benefit off knowing that little fact ;)

But for your [b]sake[/b], I will say it's a big office building of several thousand employees.

Hope that helps :)
