Site Name: SuperObscura Site URL:http://superobscura.proboards.com/index.cgi Your Name on the Board:The Doctor Description: SuperObscura is a brand new version of a long-dead roleplaying board I built almost six years ago and was forced to close only a few months later. This one is not only on a different host, but has also had far more time put into it's construction than the first.
We may not look like much yet, but we're building fast. We've only been online for about 48 hours now, and we've already got one game started with at least three more not far off. We also have a number of people who seem determined to prove that they can have more fun in the general discussion boards than anyone in the RP boards. 😛
Well, there's always time to learn, you know. You should see some of my own early RPing and writing stuff. XD You get better with practise, and our community is quite welcoming to both new and experienced players.
Less of a bump than an update: the forum's first roleplay is up and running, and the general discussion board is still growing. Come on over and check us out!
We've now got a total of 3 roleplays going, with plans for at least three more to be started by the second week of December. In total, there are 242 posts in 42 topics by 24 members. That's all in just three and a half days - we're growing so quickly I've had to start hiring a staff almost a month sooner than I anticipated. Our skin is now also complete with it's own buttons, all of which I made myself.
In addition to the RPs, we've also got one short story and one work-in-progress novel posted in the Library, as well as three visual arts threads. We also have a variety of general-topic discussions going as well.
If you haven't already, take a look around, before there's too much to see to get all of it in one visit!
Halfway through day five, we've gotten almost 100 more new posts and over a dozen new topics, as well as another half dozen members or so - all in just 24 hours. We're up to four roleplays now as well, with at least one in each of the three main genre sections ("real world", fantasy, and science fiction). Obama's address last night ignited the first discussion in our 'debate' forum, as well. And as always, our general discussion board is thriving well.
SuperObscura is growing fast - she's already achieved in less than a week what her predecessor wasn't able to achieve in three months. So come on over and join us! 😀
In less than two weeks, SuperObscura has reached 1000 posts! We've got seven roleplays running now, with 33 members participating. Our general discussion board is flourishing nicely, as well, for those who aren't all that interested in roleplaying.
I may join soon though.
