Just asking outta my own curiousity: anyone been toying with new RP ideas lately?
For instance, I've been reading some of the old threads. Particularly "Smoke and Mirrors," in which humans found themselves in the carsverse as various vehicles. Does a remake of that concept pique anyone's attention?

Can't really say I'm interested in the "Smokes and Mirrors" idea anymore. It was too restricting for me and there were too many people in it. Of course, if the RP was one-on-one, I'd be fine with that.
I'd also love to do one with some of the spy characters from Cars 2, though, not sure how to go about doing that though. :\

That's why I used the word remake and not replay. I can see why it petered out was due to too many players. That it centered around Radiator Springs only could've been a factor, too. What I was thinking to do different was change the setting and concept just slightly. What if, within either side of the SA-verse, various humans began disappearing and then reappearing as sentient vehicles?
A Cars 2 thread - I'd be interested in trying, but having not seen the movie I probably couldn't do so accurately.

Something interesting would be if there was a "vice versa" to the "Smoke and Mirrors" theme. If, some years after contact was re-established between the earths, some humans disappeared and reappeared as vehicles and vice versa - vehicles appearing as humans.

That'd have to be a freaky deal for all involved. I'm generally versed on the user mythos that has been established. Could that somehow be utilized in the plot, such as a few rogue individuals exploiting their powers to turn peoples' lives upside-down?

The user idea sounds interesting. Maybe someone with an agenda of vengeance or something more sinister?
I can't find the original RP (I don't remember where it was). I wanted to read through it just to renew my interest in the idea.

Here's the link: hillbillyhell.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=worldar&action=display&thread=1279It can be found on page one of "The World" archives. There could be personal or business related motives for why it is being done. Besides the obvious challenges vehicles would have as humans, humans from different walks of life could have similar difficulties. For instance, you take a race car driver and re-imagine them into something like a garbage truck, that'd take some serious mental adapting. Or like someone with severe aquaphobia getting turned into a boat.

I've actually been toying with an idea similar to this. Instead of the CV craft changing into humans they change into some sort of animal. (F-14 into a two-tailed cat, F-15 into a golden eagle, etc.)

That'd be another way to take it. We could have a little of all three transformations. Or four if we want to add the aspect of humans becoming animals.
