Atticus University RPG

There are new secrets brewing in the city of Ithaca, New York. Nothing is quite how it used to be and we like it that way. Do you think you can handle your secrets becoming deadlier than ever? There's a secret amongst these walls far darker than you can imagine.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Hi, everyone! So, as you may have noticed, things have been a little quiet from our end these past few days. That’s because us three admins have been deliberating things and trying to make a game plan for how we intend to move forwards with the group in a way that keeps it active and thriving. 

Now, we love this group to bits and pieces. I can’t even express how many nights I’ve stayed up until an unholy time in the morning just to stay on the dash because I’ve been laughing so much with you all and having such a good time. We’ve got an insane amount of good memories tied to this place and we hold it very close to our hearts.

That being said, we have noticed a few things over the past couple of months. Activity, while still passable, has been slipping significantly. Muse has been waning. The general enthusiasm that once drove the group to be such a thriving environment seems to have fallen out of place a little.

This is one of the main reasons that we’ve come to the decision that we’re going to close the group.

However, this doesn’t mean we’re disappearing forever! We’re intending on shutting things down so that we can work on revamping to reopen some time soon, although the concept and the name of the group may be subject to some changes where we think it calls for it. We know this might be disappointing to those of you that still love the group and, trust me, we understand! None of us want to let this group go either and that’s why I’m telling you that this post doesn’t, by any means, signify the end. It just means that we need to rejig a few things in order to start a new beginning.

Thank you so much for all of your time, love and support. We appreciate all of our members -- past and present -- so much for helping us to build such a wonderful world to house all of our characters in. 

We’ll probably post the link to the new main on here when the time calls for it, so keep a look out for that if you’re interested in following us to our new project.

Check us out! We’re a university roleplay that focuses around an anonymous website hacking into students phones, computers, etc... to leak their juiciest secrets. We have a really exciting plot drop going on at the moment which you can read more about here and I’ll be around all night to accept apps and answer questions.

What do you mean by allias? Are you simply refering to the name of our character?

Alias would be your OOC name, anon!

[atticusrpg]

The Autumn leaves have fallen down and there appears to be a new sheriff in town. While you’ve all be fast asleep, dark forces have been herding sheep. Remind yourself you must stay strong and remember you must play along.  The hackers have themselves a hacker. Sinking Ships has been taken over. The admins of the gossip blog still have access, but posts are being made against their will and they can’t seem to remove them. Suspicious. Keep an eye on the gossip blog for some strange occurrences. You’ve had your chance to breathe, but evil is surfacing once more. We have our share of villains at Atticus, but the scariest ones are those without a face. 

Keep in mind, if your alias starts with a letter between A and P, you are GROUP ONE. 

If your alias is a letter between Q and Z, you are GROUP TWO. 

Keep your eye on the gossip blog.

Hello! I was just wondering when you guys might do your next expose? Totally understand you have got a lot going on and the exposes take a while since they're really detailed and amazing which is why I'm so excited for another one! No pressure honestly just curious and also wanted to say I hope you guys are doing okay and let you know your efforts are really appreciated by a lot of us even though it's mostly the hateful anons that decide to speak up. I hope this inspires more nice anons! Cheers!

Hey! This is so kind, thank you so much! I’m actually typing up a plot drop right now that’s going to affect the students slightly. There will be a new exposure soon, I promise, but this will definitely take priority. Everyone completed their dare/contacted us about it, so there’s no one specific we’re going to expose based on that. We do have someone in mind, but we’re waiting on some plot movements first.

ALL THESE ANONS ARE PISSING ME OFF it makes me want to kick them in the throat??? Like I am a new member and I feel so welcome!! I don't see a bubble at all? And these admins are so kind and sweet and don't owe any of you negative anons any kind of explanation. This is just an rp. If you find such negative things about an online writing group and feel the need to point them out and take down others, I feel sorry for you. Okay rant over because i'm running out of characters but I love this rp!!!

This is so nice of you to take the time to send this to us. I’m so glad you’ve been enjoying yourself here. Thank you so much for being so wonderful and I know not everyone feels the way that one anon does, so I’m cooking something up for you all.

here is blog hello hello!

ADMINS HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO GO ON HIATUS AND HAVE A BREAK. They still work so hard for you all. Stop being so self-centered anon and maybe just join another roleplay if you hate it here so much. We don't need the negative vibes anyway.

I mean... preach it.

[atticusrpg]

im so disappointed in this rp. its a great idea but you admins only rp with eachother and like two other people. you can't say that you're trying to stop bubbling when you guys are the problem. thats why a whole bunch of new people are leaving constantly. its just depressing bc you guys are active admins and shit but are the reason the dash sucks.

Okay, I wasn’t going to respond to this because all of it is a mess. But you know what? I don’t even care. Firstly, Pand and I are on hiatus for personal reasons. We get on to do some important replies that are time sensitive, but for the most part, we’ve been away. Nai is actually really active and replies to more people than anyone in this roleplay tbh... Secondly. even if we only roleplayed with each other, which is very incorrect, why would 3 people in a group with fifty members have any affect on the group as a whole? Thirdly, we are very active on the main. You’re right. We promote our asses off. We spend hours planning events and plot drops for you guys. We put so much of our energy into this, when more times than not, we get hate and negativity in the inbox in response. I’m having a hard ass time right now, because I have a life I’m living that literally kicks me down every time I inhale. Can you give us a break, perhaps? And stop treating us like your servants as if we should cater to you, when we don’t even know who you are, so we can’t even help. Anonymous complaints? Pointless. Anon was invented to cause problems. That’s why the gossip blog thrives on it.

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU’VE BEEN ACCEPTED TO ATTICUS UNIVERSITY. PLEASE HAVE YOUR ACCOUNT IN WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR STAY!

Have you noticed VALERIE “VAL” KAELIN  around campus? If they were a celebrity, they’d probably be EMILY MEADE. I heard SHE is EIGHTEEN and they’re studying DOCUMENTARY PRODUCTION. They can be UNPREDICTABLE, but they can also be CLEVER. I think that’s why people call them THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE. They hope the fact that SHE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED HER BEST FRIEND never gets exposed. (OOC: ace, 17, she/her, gmt)

strt tag is :( . 2notes 4notes 8notes.*sigh*

Yes, please be replying to starters. Though, many are event related and the events now over. It’s also good to remember to give people something to work with in your starters. Something to reply to. Also, avoid god-modding, as well. Often, when starters don’t do well, it’s because people have a hard time figuring out how to reply to it. I’ve deleted and rewritten starters in the past because I realized that it’s just not going to be easy to respond to. But like I said, do your best to reply to starters in the tag. Especially if you’re thinking of posting your own.

[atticusrpg]

I think this roleplay has the best mods I've ever seen.

[atticusrpg]

Alright kids. It’s Friday, the day that we wrap up our event-related threads and get back in real time. Please refrain from posting any more event starters (unless they’re closed starters for your dare if you have not written it yet). Expect to see a new plot drop very soon.

[atticusrpg]

I think maybe the bubble roleplaying problem comes from plotting itself. It happens a lot that people only thread with their plots and completely disregard other characters. I don't think there's much to do about this though, but people should just take the hat if it fits. It's amazing to have non plotted threads too! You just dive into the unknown and it's great.

I agree so much with this. Anyone who knows me knows I am an absolutely horrible plotter. About 90% of my connections have happened organically here. Sometimes, that’s the way to go about it.

[atticusrpg]

I’m home for a couple more hours until I have to head out to my friend’s art showing. Why not drop by and give me some questions to answer or applications to accept? We’re your average college roleplay with a small twist where hackers are using their talent to expose the student body for their darkest secrets. We always have fun events and plot drops going and we’ve been open for six months now.

Shelley Hennig or Alycia Debnam Carey?

ADC!
