So I've been working on another RP, and I think it's ready to go. But my last few attempts at opening an RP were met with dismissable results. AKA, no one was interested.
So I thought I would get a headcount to see how many people were interested before sending my RP out there. Some of you involved with in the tabletop Roleplaying scene may already familiar with this.

You can’t sleep. It started like that for all of us, back when we were garden variety insomniacs. Maybe you had nightmares -gods know we all do now- or maybe you just had problems that wouldn’t let you get a good night’s rest. Hell. -maybe you were just over-caffeinated. It doesn’t matter. Whatever it was, eventually you to a point where sleep became a choice, rather than a mandate… and then it just dropped off the list. And then, and only then, something clicked. That’s when you started noticing the extras. An extra door here or there. An extra window looking out onto a city packed with surplus buildings, hodgepodge towers standing shoulder to shoulder, roofs angling into one another. Clocks chiming the thirteenth hour and unfamiliar stars twinkling in the too-clear sky. Streets and alleys that weren’t there before, leading to late-night markets that sold things like laughter and indecision. When you took a long walk down the streets of the Mad City, you stopped being a Sleeper and started being Awake. But that click you heard wasn’t from the secret world snapping into place. It was the sound of the Nightmares flicking off the safety and pointing a gun at your head. When you crossed over you became a target. They can smell you now, if they get close enough. You’re chum in the water, my friend, and it’s time you got ready for it - before the clock chimes thirteen again. You’re going to get tired, more tired than you ever have before, but mark my words: sleep isn’t just off the list now, it’s an outright enemy that’ll strip away your vitality and leave you vulnerable. There’s no going back, and from here on out, there’s just one simple rule that must dominate your life. Stay awake. Don’t rest your head.

And btw, i've read that and, although i'm a tad confused, it really piqued my interest.

YOU. YES YOU, DO YOU LIKE ROLEPLAYING? DID YOU KNOW RRR HAS IT'S OWN ROLEPLAYING FORUMS? DO YOU KNOW IT'S QUITE AWESOME? YOU SHOULD JOIN! YES, THIS IS SHAMELESS ADVERTISING. NOW CLICK THIS LINK.
Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession
The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

Interested, yes. But this may become another RP with the same small set of RPers, and (no offense) we have a horrible track record of dropping RPs after a few weeks Still, I'll give it a go

I don't mind if it's the same small set of RPers. This is a game where I'm going to have to be GM'ing (alot). And it works out better when you have a small group that know what they are doing.
I promise to do my best to keep the RP interesting so you guys don't lose interest and drop it.
And since I've got a good list of names so far, I'll get started on the signup topic. Expect it sometime tomorrow-ish.

Isn't that the case with most RP's around here? lol Always the same 5 or 6 dudes.
