Dante's Abyss 2009 - Ander - 10-13-2009
Nope, it hasn't been forgotten. I will be running it this year, and I will be introducing a new (read: re-stylized retro) format, which will be different than what has been done the last few years.
I'm putting this out here to see if anyone is interested in Dante's Abyss, and if so, when you guys would be ready to participate. Ideally, the goal is to be done by early December. Death will be fake, anyone is allowed to join, and I'm ready to go whenever you are.
So far I have:
Quote:YES - Orion, Sophia, Mal, Vad, Angelo, Trafford
MAYBE - Cerion, Belle, BBJ, Rose, Uno, Kazuya, Ashe
This is not official sign-ups, just an interest gauge.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Orion - 10-13-2009
As long as death is fake and dead people can play, I'll be in it. If either of those are compromised, then no.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Jesper - 10-13-2009
I'll be in. Too bad I really started slacking on my KK training.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Mal Nova - 10-13-2009
Err...new format?
Anyways.. It's past october the 1st.... You're late
CHOP CHOP DAMMIT!

I know for a fact that Ander will be letting dead people play.
I don't think there will be real deaths, but I'm not certain about that one.

Restylized retro? Can you tell us what the first DA's were like?
Whether or not I join will entirely depend on the format.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Kaden - 10-13-2009
The whole map/island concept came from the first DA. Players were fixed with collars that exploded if the player spent too much time outside of a "bunker." There was one bunker in each zone and players were free to try to keep others from entering or try to take over a bunker and just chill with their buddies, or... whatever they wanted, really.
There was no PMing movement or having limited moves per day, or anything like that. It was very free-form. While in most cases that was cool, there were times when things got pretty hectic or chaotic.
Ander's format keeps most of that intact. There are a couple additional systems he added that should keep things from getting out-of-hand. If he wants to post more specifics about what he had planned, I'll leave that to him.
@Rose: Wow... its a good thing someone here actually reads.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, Juno's saga isn't an entirely inappropriate comparison to the old DAs. There were a bunch of threads (each thread represented an "area" of the map) and there was stuff going on in all of them, but you really only ended up being concerned with what was going on in yours.

You being you, I automatically assumed you had some sort of notion to believe it might be real. Some behind the lines knowledge.
Rose had the balls to call you out.

DA. I really should get back into roleplaying and join in, but then again my shy nature will probably convince me not to.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Kaden - 10-13-2009
That's not shy. That's lazy.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Mal Nova - 10-13-2009
...Wait...
You're telling me we're going back to the old school shit?
I object!
Why? Because I think to many peiople hate me and will be gunning to just get rid of me.
That and I found I excelled when it came to RPing in Dante Island with 3 moves a day format.
This is, of course, my personal opinion. Either way, I'm still gonna be in it. But with this style, I know im gonna be fucked before day 1 is over..
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Kaden - 10-13-2009
It's not going completely back. I was just explaining to Belle what it was like before.
Ander has some really cool additions to the old stuff.

Well, I wasn't going to do that, but now...
Anyway, I'm for a change. Anything different. So...yeah, this gets a Sophia thumbs-up?
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Vad - 10-13-2009
Sophia is in my radar. =D

I've always been a fan of the older DA.
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Mal Nova - 10-14-2009
I will never forget the Backstabs that involved Retane of those 3 years...
and other events
First year it was to Nappa...
Second year it was to, 2-3 Horsemen? At least? OMG I miss Tapion and Retane... I even earned SNS! But I died in a wrong step LMAO
Third year... even to my shock and awe, after I just wanted to go in without any backstabs, Tapion back stabbed me, and died. I even went on to survive against Eightzu.. lol
I was always first Fight or First kill in the three of them, I think.
It was fun to see how good I COULD be... in another's opinion
Dante's Abyss 2009 - Ander - 10-14-2009
Dead people can play, absolutely. I'll post more specifics if enough people are interested. Kaden gave a good general idea of what it will be like.
