    Okay, hear me out before reporting me for posting clop. I'm feeling romantic, in a manner of speaking...

    Yes, it's my attempt at a Dating Sim. No, it's not NSFW, nor will it ever be.

    Here's what I'm thinking: your character has just arrived in Ponyville from wherever they choose to be from. They can choose to stay for any length of time they please.

    The object of the game: Find Love. Simple as that.

    There's going to be all kinds of exciting things like dialogue trees, dice rolling, and scrolling through text!
    Okay, maybe just the dice rolling, so this RP will use EPRP rules. :derpe:

    I was also thinking, due to the nature of the game, that this'll be a one-on-one affair.

    Questions, comments?

    It's not tough. :smile:

    Basically, when your character is given a particular task, like say...helping Rarity find gems, I'll assign it a difficulty (I'll use 10 for this example). Then, I roll 2 twelve-sided die. Then, your Awareness stat is added to that roll to come up with your final roll. Like so:
    Kinda like that. Dice rolls won't govern every action, (such as dialogue) just ones that require "physical" or "mental" checks, like lifting a log or resisting fear.

    I hope that helped a bit.

    I suppose I'll cancel my interest. If it didn't have all the EPRP garbage, I'd join.

    It'll still be one-on-one, and play by post.

    I'll just create multiple instances.

    I thought this was going to be more along the lines of a large group RP, I'ld rather not do any kind of shipping with canonical characters...

    Wow! I never thought I'd drum up this much interest!

    Give me a few hours and I'll make a proper sign up.

    - - Auto Merge - -

    As promised, roughly twelve hours later: The Signups.
