I don't think you will find much resistance to the idea of doing RP like this... but.
30 minutes to gauge interest? Really? It took me 30 minutes just to read everything!!
What I'm saying is, yes, this sounds like a good idea and all, but for the FIRST gauge of interest I would almost say give people at least a few days before you really start rolling with this. And also give people some time to meet with you and see if the sort of story you have in mind would be something they want to be a part of. In fact the big question that came to my mind really is "What is the general plot you want to see happen?"
Hahaha. It took me 30 minutes to write it, but that's why I started with the TL;DR version first. The rest isn't necessary to understand the basic concept, and I wasn't expecting anybody to read the whole thing, but I wanted to show that I had the idea fleshed out properly, instead of just posting an idea without putting any work forward to show that I can make it happen. Trust me, I have a LOT more text written ;-P.
XD That being said, I know my posts need to be shorter - its my biggest pitfall.
For the plot question, I do have a plot in mind, but I'd like to gather a few like-minded people before I decide what plot we're going to do. At least 2-4 other people to keep me from meta gamingCurrent plot currently planned is:
Ul'dahn Murder Mystery: Title Pending
Basic Premise:
- A wealthy Lalafell merchant has been murdered for no apparent reason. His gold and belongings on his person ravaged by the refugees and the Brass Blades are stumped.
- I'd like to play the murderer, a Bard with a cracked harp, no longer singing the songs he's learned. He's a vigilante gone wrong, and may have partners in crime.
- Some crimes are well planned, but he makes mistakes or goes out of his way to send a message, as with the murder above.
- I'd like to have a small group of RP of sympathists (maybe?) for him and most of the RP'ers working to catch him, maybe even kill him (If it happens, so be it!), some groups differing in their methods, but working to similar goals.

I'm open to all types, as I think our community is skilled enough at RP, no matter who the character might be involve. I am looking for some good aligned characters, but I have a good core of those participating already. In short, its RP, RP however you want! I'll work around it!

I must say that I love LOVE plot-based RP. In fact, the reason I haven't been as active RPing my main character is that there's nothing happening in the world, nothing she could react to, and I'm not really good organizing huge plots myself. I also love open RP, actually; I need a mix of both to be happy.
Hahaha! Well, you can join us still, if you'd like, but I do know you're peak activity hours is probably right about now...dang European timezones. That being said, most RP will take place on the weekend, hopefully around 1:00pm PST, which is about 9:00pm in Madrid. Let me know if you'd like to give it a shot. No harm in trying :-).
