What would you want to see? We need a fresh RP here, and I got two ideas.
One is similar to the Trapped in Radiator Springs, the basic idea would be humans transported to the cars world, but as cars. Either what their counterparts are, or what their own cars or other mode of transportation is. Such as Aron would be simply his Rover. I can make a basic villain for it, which could either be one of those transported or someone in either world.
The magic would be moderate to massive and abilities (such as empathy) would be massive.
Another settings would be survival RP. The first and foremost requirement is that there is no magic, and no abilities. What if some sort of massive disaster, such as Yellowstone caldera erupting, or tsunami, or massive hurricane hits somewhere, and we follow up with the survivors trying to find nearest civilization while also surviving. Some would try to weed out the weakest for the group's survival, or some would just go solo, unable to work with others.

Those are two good ideas in my opinion, if one (or both) of them become actual RPs, I'll be pleased to join them.

I'm sorry I don't have the time for another RP (sigh). Only thing is, the TiRS thing kind of bogged down after 150 pages the first time around, you might want to change and increase the parameters a little.

If someone else can get it set up and started, I'd like to join. I've been on HH forever but I've never roleplayed here yet.

About the TiRS, it is going to happen in a generic town of about 2500-5000 individuals. That means that there is maybe one or two superstores, dozen or so gas stations, and a motel or three. I don't like RPing with FC, thus I am taking it away from Radiator Springs. The namesake however is because that was it's name back at the old CFU, which I never actually got in.
How some get there can be completely random. I think the spell would work that way. In the Dresden Files books, there is a death curse which can have the funniest results. There is a case of a frozen turkey falling down from an airplane and nailing one in the chest, or some as seemingly random as being electcuted in one's own blood.
Where I am going with this that there may be something that needs to be done for the 'shift' to Cars World as car, but it can be as silly and strange as you want.
As for the time when it wither down and dies, I do have an endgame planned. It would be just posted as one post per three-seven days to give some a chance to RP till the end.
As for the survival RP, I do not have that many ideas for that. Any takers?

I haven't RPed here in a while, and would be glad to start again...although I'm busy these days, so I'll wait and make sure that the RP isn't too active for me before I join.
I'm interested in both ideas, the first one moreso though.

Delfina would either be a Ford Probe or a Chevrolet Corvette in the first idea. And I wouldn't feel satisfied unless I was allowed to bring Ebony in.
I'm not sure about the second idea, though. The survival RP sounds similar to the Swept Away RP. Personally, I'd much prefer an Adventure RP...

What I meant by FC was the characters in the movie. Last time I remembered, we didn't see Ebony there, so you can bring her in.
Yeah, that is what is bothering me also. Danny threw the idea there, and I just grabbed it without much thought. But the adventure RP has been tried, and failed here within the 'second generation' RPs. We need some RP which does contain some drama for the players and action, but is quite devoid of any magic and related.

Ebony has a weird habit of only being in an RP if Phoenix is in the same RP. She is picky like that. XD I am not sure IPD wants to join, though.
And what I mean by Adventure RP, I mean an RP loosely similar to the movie, UltraViolet, or any other movie of the same genre.

Try to see if IPD would be interested.
As for UltraViolet, maybe I should clarify. No magic, no sci-fi elements, no 'bio-engineered' lifeforms. The aim of the second idea would be to have things normal. I hate to do this, but Cloverfield would be a good example. It doesn't have any civilians fighting back, it has civilians running away and trying their best to survive while also trying to find their loved ones in the debris. I know Cloverfield also has that big monster, but that can be replaced by other stuff.

I don't do survival. I do adventure, whether it be sci-fi, murder mystery, or western. And that doesn't sound to me like an RP that I want to join, even if it was normal.
Sorry, but leave me out of this.

Anyhow, since the survival is not that very planned, we can go on with the TiRS idea and I aught to write up my ideas for it.

Yeah, TiRS seems to be the more popular idea...we should go with it.
