Hello ladies and gentlemen! Looks like soon I'll have been through all of the hassle, hustle and bustle over the last few months and I'll be returning to the untouchables! Huzzah!
Also, I'm trying to set up a new RP site and could do with some help. I'm looking for members, staff and helpful advice on plot development Ect. The story takes themes from Dead Space, Space Siege and Event Horizon (and probably other similar things). Here's a copy of an advert I posted on RPG-Directory.com
---------------------------------------
Hullo, I'm SolidSilver (or Matt, whichever you prefer). I've recently come up with a new plot idea for a new board, and wanted to see if I could get this going. As a result, I'm here to ask for some help XD
I'm a 20 year old student of Criminology and Social Policy in the UK (at Loughborough University). I enjoy reading anything from Isaac Asimov or Ian Banks, to Stephen King or David Eddings. Yup, I still read adolescent fantasy - lame I know.
Deep Six is a Sci-Fi survival horror, set on a stranded spacecraft in the deepest, darkest regions of space. Below is an excerpt from the introductory story to serve as a brief overview of the plot.
If anyone is willing and/or interested I need people to help me set up, run and play this board
Name of Board:
Deep Six
Link to Board:
If you want it please PM me It's not anywhere near finished yet
Requested Position:
Co-Admin
How many positions available:
1
Information:
I need somebody with a relatively good knowledge of skins, resources, graphics etc help me shape the board visually. Also, and more importantly – someone who’s keen and interested and can not only help me develop the plot, board and come up with new ideas, but also someone who’ll be fun to write with XD
If anyone is interested please apply with some evidence of experience in the position, and an RP sample relative to the genre of this board.
Requested Position:
Graphics Mod
How many positions available:
1
Information:
I’m fairly good at graphical design myself ( My Deviant Art ) but I don’t really have the time to work on new images for the board header, buttons, pips etc – admittedly I’m also currently lacking the inspiration.
If anyone is interested please apply with a portfolio dark, technological and ominous is the look I’m going for, so relevant work would be best
Thanks,
SolidSilver – Matt

You are currently still aboard the deep space exploration and colonization vessel ‘Nomad’. Nomad is currently more than one million light years from the nearest UEC or independent colony -
- WHAT!? -
- due to an unforeseen encounter with a previously undiscovered spatial anomaly. Data on the anomaly has been recorded and catalogued for recovery by UEC officials when we return to the orbital colony above the gas giant Gala – In approximately 1,151,220 years, 251 days, 17 hours, 22 minutes and 45.52 seconds (maintaining a velocity of no less than 0.87 lights). . .

One day in the void
I’m no stranger to space. I grew up on a DsECV just like this one, except we never used to call them that. We all called them ‘Deeps’, naming them that for the sake of simplicity, then adding the manufactory number to identify them.
‘Nomad’ was the sixth such vessel to be built by the United Earth Coalition in as many years. Funny isn’t it? I’ll be spending my remaining, miserable existence on a vessel named Deep Six. Appropriate that we named this hulking great chunk of space detritus after a euphemism for death. . . Nothing works, and I can’t find anyone.

There’s still no power. . . no lights. . . no one else. . . How can a ship crewed by 12,500 people be empty!? Sure I haven’t had time to look everywhere – it’d take me weeks to search every nook and cranny in the ship, but I know the common areas shouldn’t be so desolate.
The computer has started behaving irrationally. It won’t listen to me now – at all. We should find the anomaly, try and go back through it! We’d be back within one light year of Epsilon 2 and I’d get to get off this hulk!

I’m not alone. In the darkness I hear things. . . Am I going mad or am I being hunted by something terrible? Are the dark imaginings of my subconscious taking form through hunger and fear? I’m not so sure any more. . . going to engineering. . . nice big thick bulkheads. . . safe.

Who will you become as the darkness closes in all around you?
Will you seek out others and try to help them? It’s the right thing to do isn’t it? Besides, nobody sane would ever want to face this darkness alone.
Or will you exploit them as a resource to keep yourself alive and one step ahead of the game? After all, you don’t need to be fast – just faster than the slowest person.
