Utterly Mad

okay, going to state this now: No one person has absolute say over anything. The GMs (which I need to compile a list of willing GMs) will discuss most content and determine whether it's lore or not. For other things we will get the community involved.
This is supposed to be something people can join in rather easily, and something that people can freely contribute to as they feel they want to. This is supposed to be a community thing so I think the control needs to be with the community.
I saw a question about 'is this going to be GMed', well I think the best answer is yes and no. I think having a general ability to free form RP at leisure is a good idea, and then have more structured GMed events. Just my thoughts on that particular question.

Note to GMs/GMs thinking of signing up: This is going to end up a commitment for all GMs involved, so please keep that in mind. The reason I wanted more then one GM to begin with is that my schedule is different from most of the other users here (I'm not in too much during the night), and I realize people will want to RP through out the day. Another reason is that I realize a single GM can only handle so many events at one time, so having a pool of GMs to help run things was going to be necessary if this succeeded in growing the community.

Okay so here's some stuff

The Role of GM outside of an Event
Keep the peace, solve any issues between players fairly(kind of act like a moderator), and facilitate things going smoothly. Oh, and participate, this is here for everyone to have fun, just don't abuse being a designated GM.

The Role of GM inside of an Event
Run the event with the designated mechanics, if any. Facilitate an enjoyable RP experience. Oh, and you can kill a PC, don't be afraid to do that because sometimes people do something stupid enough to deserve it.

What's an Event
A more organized and structured RP with a specific goal in mind. Players sign up and mention a specific character of theirs that is going to be in the RP and then the GM(s) running the RP will initiate and run it. Note, if you do something stupid as a player your character may get killed.

You said it'd be until 3:00 pm tomorrow before the poll would be done, let's stick with what we say man....and that sounds harsher then I mean to be....probably should stop posting when I'm tired.

Oh.

Yeah sorry about that.

Uhm.

Bound for the stars?

Wait, no that sounds like a soap opera.

How about UMCW Alpha. I like that name. UMCW just means "Utterly Mad Created World", but it sounds cool.
