OK most of us here do it so, I am sure you have different setups. I am just wondering how many of us do it in similar fashion.
I think depends on the mood I am in but usually I tend to read a response or opening RP a couple of times. Noting various things placement, what was said etc.
Normally figuring out how my character will enter takes only a few moments, then I open word up and type. Sometimes with music but mostly without I am not sure if it affects my role plays or not.
Length equals better role plays? For me not always, when I read a lengthy RP I need to be interested throughout when I'm not I tend to skim the rest. I try to keep mine interesting whether I succeed or not is a different matter but mine tend to be longer than average.
Format I tend to keep a relatively simple format centered and italic with each of my characters having a different color for speech. Actions and thoughts I put into one with the default color. I have also recently within the last month or so tried to insert pauses in the speeches to match how wrestlers deliver their lines so they have the dramatic impact you see on TV.
Also I try to describe the places and add some more detail, though I do leave somethings left out I am looking to improve my writing skill and yes some may notice my grammar is far from the best but in my defense I failed English
With me and I think this counts for a lot of people here playing the heel is a more natural role for me, as most of my more memorable characters were heels and not baby faces.
So that is pretty much mine so how do you prepare or get in the mood to RP?
