RV is down to 4 active and 1 semi-active players, but still slowly slinking along..

Applegate is running on 100% and is currently full.

Given the inactivity and lack of signals from some of my players:

Seth
Honorable Intentions
Fuzz
\Rook/

3 out of 11 slots of Blue Peak Shore are free. 2 out of 11 slots of Blue Peak Shore are free, thanks to new addition!

'Snow Tunnels' is new, and fairly active. With 9 character slots taken. New players are a join by request.

Terra Ridge is trunkin along with 4 slots taken and 2 empty.

EA is still moving but not very quick. With 0 slots currently open, but more to open in future.

Sunset is still active with 2 slots open

I don't know about the ones I'm supposed to be running as I've had trouble contacting certain people to keep them moving. Right now I'm way too busy to finish dealing with it, but I'll get back to you....

I'm the backup GM for 17th Century Fox. It's still going, slowly. 9 slots are taken. I'm not sure whether Argent wants to open any more or not. I'll PM him and get him to check here.

Maybe try sending the other GMs who haven't replied here to make sure they've seen this thread.

You're on the ball then.

17th Century Fox is slow but active, after a furious start. We could open more slots now, I think, it would be kind of cool to get an island "giant rat" (agouti) interested in joining the ship's complement, but I think I have enough NPCs to keep track of already so it would need to be a new character.

Your missing Esper for Richmond Acres. which is currently full, with one or two. on a waiting list for a slot to open up.

Sorry for not seeing this earlier.
Apollo City is active, and currently doesn't have a slot cap.
I might add that soon, though.

Raccoon is running 2, so that means we'd heard from the GMs of 9 neighborhoods, now 11. I don't know if Edge City's GM is likely to respond here, he's kind of eccentric.

Radiant Garden's is breathing.... barely I am trying, but juggling it and school

I don't know if i can be the game master of EA currently after all the toughness and problems that I have gone through in the last month or two, plus the stuff i'm still dealing with but one day in the future I might be able to return as the full GM. But until then I wish to relinquish my power to some of the players in the RP currently like Hlaoroo, Brent, and 69eist. Hopefully between those three they can keep the neighborhood alive and going.

you could appoint an assistant GM for the neighborhood who can take over in the event of your absence, and since I'm the mod in charge of monitoring EA, you don't really need to do more than ask me if you need me to help out.

I'm willing to help out with whatever you need. I'll be away from tomorrow evening until the 13th December but after then I'll be free to help out. We'll be sorry to lose you, musclecar. I hope you get on top of everything real soon. Do you want someone to take over Snowy?

assitant gm reporting radient gardens is active, and can probably take up to two more only before were full. other than that its moving on nice an easy.

There's been mention of wanting a new PF neigborhood , but I don't want to accept a new one while there are neighborhoods that already exist and need more players.
however
If you're a GM and are fine with a new neighborhood being made even if you need more players, please let me know

If you're all okay with it, I'll go ahead and give the okay

Mostly, players want simple rp's, like Richmond Acres, or Radient Gardens. When they see backstory like AC's, they get discouraged and want to find an easier RP.
Basically, I need more players, but nobody is willing to join, so...
Out of the 2 proposed rp's... I'd have to say Poképets.

Edit:
I just saw Sandy Creek. That one is good, too!

nah, pokepets isn't a Pet Friendly, and attracts a bit of a different group of RPers, that one's going up no matter what. and AC is along the same lines, along with 17CF and the SRPs.

PF are only the ones that are in the same universe as Housepets, so I'm only really asking about Sandy Creek

Gotcha

Obviously I'm all for Sandy Creek, however, as the mods have made their position clear, I will side with them.

my position was based on not wanting to take RPers away from struggling neighborhoods, so I'm leaving it completely up to you guys. you don;t need to side with our decision when it hasn't been made yet =P

Either way you are the mods so I'll follow you, whatever you choose. I understand and appreciate that you don't want to detract from the neighbourhoods that are already present and I have no wish to do that either. I know that I was drawn into the RPs by joining RA when it was still a very simple and friendly RP (it still is but there's more drama now) and as I got used to the RPing I branched out into other RPs. I can't help but wonder if another PF-RP might draw more players in in the same way it did me. I'll leave the decision up to you other GMs and mods though.


On the topic of faltering RPs as mentioned in the main OOC, I'm beginning to wonder if Exotic Acres should be closed too. At the moment it seems to be just me, Brent and 69 posting there and even then I have to keep poking it. Besides, three players do not the RP make. EA has been very slow for a long time and unlike Radiant Gardens, it shows no sign of being revitalised. Perhaps it's better to let it go and make room for a new and possibly PF RP which can keep people in the RP section and bring new players, keeping things interesting, rather than to let it linger and take up a slot and drive people away with the illusion of inactivity in this part of the forums.

So I currently have 9 GMs in the GM group, however there are 17 RPs on the forums.
Is there anybody that's a GM that isn't in the group yet?
And how many GMs control two or more RPs?

me

I control 2. Sunset Plateau, and Apollo City.

Hotep, you've been added. Please make sure to check out and reply to the threads in the GM subforum.

Thanks, Neon.

Who else needs adding or controls multiple RPs?

Also, have there been any changes to GMs recently? I know Neon took over from IceKitsune in SP and that I took over from WG in Redwall. Any others?

Who is the current GM for MLP? Also did we work out what's happening with Raccoon's RPs? Which ones is he running? One other thing: is The Moon Howler still GM for Applegate given his recent absence or has Brent taken over fully? Do you control any others aside from EA, Brent?

I need a complete list of GMs so I know who's doing what.

Also, GMs please check the GM subforum. There are threads there that I need you all to reply to so that I can make the updated OOC page.

Hope I didn't miss anything...
------------------
Are Mods included in the Game Master Group?

Thanks, Roarin. That's very helpful. I think that list is slightly outdated though. Musclecar hasn't been on since January and he passed control to Brent and I and Brent and I agreed to let Brent take over as GM for there. I've also taken over Redwall which was also not on your list, I think... So there's actually 18 RPs. I must have missed one when I was counting.

I will add the mods to the list for the sake of having an updated list.

Regarding the inactive GMs, are their RPs also inactive? From what I can see they don't appear to be so I'm of two minds about adding them to the list and putting their RPs in the new OOC. What do you guys think?

I say if its dead, its dead. Get rid of 'em!

Nope, I think there's only 17. I was in the middle of making the list when you posted so I deleted Gamer and forgot to add Redwall back >_<

As for inactive GMs... As much as Id like to say "keep them on!" (Due to personal bias x_x), I agree with Neon. The towering cluster that is, The Roleplay Section has been growing since its conception. It'd be nice to take a broom to it and clean up a bit here and there. ^_^
A solidified GM list.
An RP section with only active Neighborhoods.
Same for the OOC.
Maybe have another section for dead RPs and OOCs. Like they have for the Comics or Fanfic Section.

This is as nice of a time to make a fresh start if any
