The way I would like to do this would obviously be by basing it on certain aspects of FFVIII (the aspect of Balamb Garden mainly, DUH!!). It would involve people being residents of Balamb Garden, wether they are SeeD's, SeeD candidates or cleaners; you get the idea
Balamb Garden RP
Rules and Guidelines
This just causes confusion because Synth could be involved in something else and might not want to be involved!
Here is how it SHOULD be done: 'Damon and Jimmy were locked in battle with the Grat's. Jimmy turned to Damon, "We need someone else, try to find Synth!"
This way, Synth is not immediately involved, will have a chance to read the post and decide upon what happens next. He could assist them, or his next post could give reasons why he could not help, e.g. he sets off on a journey to Balamb. (Any confusion, don't hesitate to ask
Other Idea's
One idea I would like to toy with, is the idea of assigning dorms to people, with a maximum of two people per dorm. I would create a list of the dorms and their residents, which would look along these lines:
Dorm #134: member1, member2
Dorm description: example--> sea blue walls, tiled floor and a picture of a chimp on the wall.
Dorm name: example--> The Fridge
This may all seem rather pointless to some people, but it's different and I thought I'd put the idea across we can even take a vote on later on.

Dorm description: This dorm room appears rather simplistic, yet it is still appealing to the eye. The walls are painted a pale shade of blue with a lighter shade splattered onto it. The wooden floorboards have a single rug draped over them, placed between the two beds. There were the necessities of course; a bed, a bedside table and lamp, a dresser, a desk, and shelves for each side. The furnishings were dressed and painted to match the room. If it wasn't for the main door, the door to the bathroom, and the windows, the room would appear as though there was a mirror for a wall: identical save for the belongings of its resident(s).

Balamb Garden RP
Rules and Guidelines
- No god-like characters.
- When creating profiles, limit summons to 2. As well as summons, make sure magic isn't all extreme; ultima and everything along those lines. I'm not saying you will never have the chance to use them, but can we let the RP progress first.
- Again when creating profiles, make the Special Abilities field realistic. Swordplay, dueling, magic, agility etc...Killing is not a special ability! I can't stress this enough; we don't want this kind of profile bringing down the quality of the RP
- Be as active as you can. If you can't get access to the internet or anything along those lines; you can't be blamed. But I do ask that if you aren't posting, you PM myself and pull out of the RP. It's not fair on the other members and it effects the story.
- The beauty of the RP, is the ability to have multiple stories running at one time. We don't all have to follow the same plot. However, there is always the option to combine stories, but the post quality needs to remain high so confusion is kept to a minimum. For example, if the story involves a battle with 2 people, you cannot decide to suddenly bring someone else in.
This just causes confusion because Synth could be involved in something else and might not want to be involved!
