100 Members!!

Oh my gosh!
We've reached 100 members! After all of these months of inviting, and inviting others to invite, and waiting, and waiting, and waiting, we've finally reached 100 members!

All righty, so now we are going to par-tay! :) Calamity and I have decided on a party, and this is it:
We are going to have a day (this Monday) where we invite every member of this group to get online (all day) and create their own roleplays! It'll be total fun, and total chaos, and we hope to see you (er, roleplay with you) on Monday!

:) Thanks so much!

90 Member Mark!!!!!!!!!

The group has met the 90 member mark!!!!!!  We have 90 members!! 10 more members and we'll have 100 memers! That's 1-0-0!! Three digets!
Members, this is a really big deal for both Hadley and I. We've worked really hard on this group and we always hoped that it would grow large. Here's our chance!!!
Please invite your friends! Please! If this group gets 100 members there will be some kind of celebration! I've got no idea what yet, but you can suggest some below! Just invite....please.
Please!!

Okay...that's enough pleases. Just invite your friends, kay? And hey, if you do, I may just give you a clue to the contest...;)

Activity

Everybody listen up!! :D

The group is great don't get me wrong...But have you noticed that some of the rp's have drifted into un activity...
Some rp's haven't been active for nearly months!! Most of our rp's that we so painstakingly create are made, and then fizzle out. :( You guys need to post and invite more members to keep the fun up and running!! :D If someone adreses your charrie, write back!!
Is it because you are having trouble navigating the group? If so, here's some tips.

A) The group guide. It does need to be updated {curse my forever laziness} but it still has most of the rp's. Just click on the folder you'd like to go to, and it'll take you there! :D If you click on each folder one at a time, you'll se all the  topics marked as "new" so you can catch up!
B) My personal favorite...The "unread" button. Up in the top right corner-just above where the folders and discussions begin- there are three buttons. "Edit folder", "New topic", and "Unread". Click "Unread" and it will take you to every topic you haven't yet read!! It's extremely helpful! :D

If that's your problem, you have no excuse!! There is a solution, and Hadley and I would really prefer that you use it because this group can be great fun!

Is it because you don't have the rp that you're truely interested in? Well, I highly doubt that...We do have about 40 roleplays. But if that's the case don't hesitate to ask!! Hadley and I are always making new rps, and even if sometimes we do get overwhelmed, we will make your rp if it will make a difference to you!!

So please just post more in the rp's members!!!

Contest and Games

All righty! My first post! :)

First of all, Roleplay Awaits You, Minion is a super fun group! We have lots of games, and a contest!! If you're a Goodreads member who likes to roleplay, this group is the group for you! (Plus everyone's really nice.)

I'll start out with the games, shall I?
We have quite a few games, so I'll just give you a brief description of each one.

•The Word Game!
A fun game in which you post TWO words (no more, no less) that can go together.
Example:
(First person) A boy
(Next person) walked down
(Next person) the street
And so on!

•This or That
In this game, one person posts a this or that question. Then, another person answers that question, then posting their own.
Example:
(First person) Dogs or cats?
(Next person) Cats. Mountains or the ocean?
(Next person) Mountains. Trees or flowers?
And it goes on, and on, and on! This game is super fun!

•On mah burger
Calamity made up this game, and it hasn't had many posts... It's still fun, though! :)
You post things that you would (not really) want on a burger. The next person does the same, BUT they have to use one thing that the person before them used.
Example:
(First person) I'd like a burger with a wheat bun, a shark patty, some dollar bills, and an olive on top. Extra fries.
(Next person) I'd like a burger with a sourdough bun, an elk patty, toothpicks, and an olive on top. Regular fries.
:) It's fun!

•Fortunately, Unfortunately
FUN! Super duper fun! Okay, so one person writes something fortunate that happened, then the next person has to say "Unfortunately, this happened" and put something unfortunate. :)
Example:
(First person) Bob was walking down the street when he slipped on a banana peel.
(Next person) Fortunately, there was a pillow in the street so he didn't get hurt when he fell.
(Next person) Unfortunately, someone threw a big rock at him so his head got hurt.
SUPER fun! :D

•Four Words in Jail
This is kind of the same as the Word Game, but instead of two words you can do four. You're pretending that you're in jail, and you just say really random things.
Example:
(First person) I don't like pie.
(Next person) What?! I love pie!
(Next person) Pie is absolutely amazing...
And on and on and on. :) This one's also really fun!

•BBB
:) To play this game, one person posts "Bluestar!" Then the next person posts "Bluestar!" And then the third person who posts posts "Brokenstar". Then anyone can tell that third person to put something at the end of everything that he/she posts. It gets quite funny, as they post (I hate HG: BBB dare!) at the end of their posts.
Example:
(First person) Bluestar!
(Next person) Bluestar!
(Next person) Brokenstar...
The person who posted Brokenstar would get told by anyone to put something at the end of their posts.
Really fun!! :)


Okay, I think that's it for the games! Next is the contest! :)

CONTEST--
All righty! This contest is really fun! In our "Riddles" topic, I posted a riddle. That riddle leads you to another topic. On that topic, you look for a clue that leads you to another topic, where Calamity and I have been posting mistakes in our posts. They may be misspellings, or things going in the wrong places, or other things! Figure out which things are wrong, decode it, and send the answer to Calamity and me.
We're really excited about this! We've been planning and planning and planning some more, and finally we're on the final topic... :) So go ahead! Try to figure it out! :)

Well, that's it for this post! :) Have fun playing games, and participating in our contest (if you'd like to)! :)

Comment Your Complaints

        Is there anything wrong with the group?? We do have a suggestion topic, but this blog is mainly for this sort of thing. Do you want to complain about a different member's behavior? A mod's behaviour? Maybe even our rp's? If you have something of the sorts, comment below. :)

Let us begin

         First of all, Hadley and I would like to thank our members for stopping by and joining the group in the first place!!! :D You guys have been great and we enjoy rp'ing and hanging out with you! :)

     This blog is made to advertise and is and out cast of, the goodreads group "Roleplay Awaits you Minion." This group is a roleplaying group for children{and teens} where you can rp without worrying about innapropriate matieral or unfriendly people. :) We have nearly 40 rp's and more are always on the way! Not even two days after you request something, it will most likely be made!! :D

But this blog is not so much about roleplaying. Roleplay Awaits You Minion also has debates, writing challenges and critiques and book discussions!! That is mostly what this blog will be about-alongside to complaints and suggestions on the group.
When you come here, follow the rules of the group. Roleplay Awaits You, minion has grown in the way that it is now because we're light hearted, kind and fun! No one there is mean, or rude. If you do that here, neither Hadley or I will take to you very kindly. If this blog is half as nice as the group, then we should have a blast! :D

If you're a member of the original Goodreads group, please follow this blog!! This will be updated weekly {Sometimes daily} with important info on the group and if no one's on Goodreads, this will be fun!! :D If you're a Goodreads member and you haven't joined Roleplay Awaits you Minion, please do!!!!
