It's a forum to roleplay online in.
The stories writers write together by writing for their personal character.

Yup.
I suppose Fan fic is more for sharing your own writing and this is to play together.

I created this forum for SYMistan and other forum-based RPGs that seem to be becoming more popular. There really wasn't a good place to post such threads before, but now there is .

Thanks Buck! I've participated in three or four online RPG's, but unfortunately they never seem to survive for long. And yes, I'm partially guilty of that too . I would love to be involved in a good online RPG, but I don't think I've got time for it right now

Well guys SYMistan has its own place now. So we can play the game with ease. Thanks alot Buck for being so understanding and creating this forum.

Secondly this is not only for SYMistan, so other RPG games can be started etc.

Sorry no time
If there's going to be a game next month, I'll be happy to join (or even DM)

Well there is a geo-political game called SYMistan. Basically you RP politicians and i DM it. I add in real life issues from the BBC news website. You guys decide on your countries point of view with regard to Iraq, Abortion, what your currency is etc etc. We have a good 10 players so far. We do need more. We start this saturday the 7th of May.

Its a new country placed in territory that was part of Russia, near Checnya. It is a large country 17 million population. Been in civil war for 15 years. You play the political parties in that country and decide the future of SYMistan.

Once the threads are transfered you can read up on it. Or do a search on SYMistan.

It's completely different. (Are you by any coincidence involved in nationstates asking such a question? If not, I would not be surprised, though.)

Just be patient.

I'm not familiar with the term 'SYMistan'...could you explain some things or give me links?
