If the forums were a real place, what would it look like? A replica of Radiator Springs? A replica of Radiator Springs in the courtyard of a giant, looming castle? A cozy cyberspace cafe? Let's hear what you guys have to say.
Saw this idea on another forum, and thought it was pretty interesting. It started out as a fanfiction of sorts; the guy turned the forums into a massive castle (complete with never-ending hallway where everyone's rooms are) and things got really nutty- one member started pretending to be James Bond (even during utterly non-spy moments), another guy got forced into a bikini (don't ask).
My question: What would happen if we tried something similar, only with an RP?
And don't say utter chaos/madness/insanity/etc. That's a given.

If this forum were a real place... Hmmm...
A huge mansion with a giant back yard and a forest. Yeah, I'm that sad, but this is what I'm thinking since we're almost up to 100 members.
How would this work as an RP?

The forum I got the idea from has over 4,500 members, and he used the ginormous castle.
Someone could set the scene (once a setting is determined, that is) and then each member that participates starts their own day with waking up. The more they explore, the more weirdness occurs. I'm thinking the infamous river of soda spontaniously appears at random times.

4,500!? OMG, that's whole buncha members!!! Geez, no wonder the reason for the ginormous castle.
This sounds like the Mad RP in the Spamalot section... almost.
If we decide on a setting, it has to be a good one.
Will there be a storyplot or will everything be spontaneous?
And I think we may need a few more members who want to join too to make this work.

I'm willing to join the insanity, sounds like what we did on the U.S.S Institution on a 'Pirates' board. It got really crazy over there until a bunch of people were banned because they were being stupid.

The Plot: A normal day at Hillbilly Hell, which is anything but.
He didn't use all 4,500, obviously. He used those he was most familiar with. But yes- lots of members is bigger setting.
The fun part is getting to make up what's inside HH. A mechanics room, for making your own characters into actual cars to race on the track in the back yard? A Kiss-The-Character booth in the cafeteria? A holo-deck? Anything's possible.

Like a pirate ship in the pool...

Life-size, of course.

I like the holodeck idea. You could do anything there.

And the pirate ship. As long as no one blows any holes in my ship. *brandishes cutlass*

Wow... Fancy...
That would work. Although it probably won't stay that pretty, because chances are pretty good something's going to blow up... *glances at Kamui*

LOL!
We can make it so that whatever damage is caused it can be easily repairable. Like using a bit of nanotechnology to repair a window or something.
The holodeck can be somewhere inside... as well as a large movie theater where people can riff cheesy movies or fanfiction like they do in Mystery Science Theater 3000. XD
Also, we can bring in our own OCs to interact with too.

I'd keep mine mini-sized and in jars on my desk. XD
Second thought, maybe shoe boxes would work better... or even an aquarium! Although Fierano and I would have to set up visits between Annie and Eddie.
MST3K spoof sounds cool! We could even do commentary on Cars. (always wanted to do that!)

They'd probably be no bigger than those remote-controlled vehicles and we can do as we will with them. Or we can make them any size that we want them to be. Although, I'm afraid that on the small scale, Ebony will try to bite my toes off.
I was always wondering if I should do an MST3K spoof of one of my fanfics, but wasn't sure how others would take that.
