Figured it might be time for us to put up a place where people who are looking for a place to role play can go. I don't know if there was a thread for this previously, but I figured, why not?
This is (as far as we know) one of the longest running newsies role play sites on the internet. It's been up and running since mid 2006, and has yet to go under, fully. Though there are luls now and then, for the most part, the role play is fairly constant. It's even got a lot of it's original members and admins, and the site gets better all the time.
If You're looking for a good rp, look no further, and come join us at NY1899!

Have a look, very good, pass by... Be honest but not too modest. Dress properly. Don't shake hands with the interviewer until he/she extends his/her hand.
sometimes the living is sweet, and sometimes there's nothing to eat, but i always land on my feet
It's been one years since the newsies won their Newsboy Strike, but looking around New York City one would think that little has changed. Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst are back to their old ways, competing with one another to find the biggest front page story out there, even going as far as to influence the news with money, creating stories that wouldn't otherwise exist.
The stories come from the waves of immigrants making their way through Ellis Island, shaping the dynamics of their city. It is easy to pick on the newcomers, blaming them for the rise in crime, the loss of jobs to hardworking American citizens, and the shaping of small communities separating the Old World from the New World. It's almost too perfect. Each immigrant has a story that can be warped into a front page sensation, creating animosity where there might not originally have been any.
For the Newsies it is a double whammy. Depending on the news publication they work for it is a race to sell the most papes in order to get their payment, for if they don't sell it they can either kiss their jobs goodbye, or lose any possible hope of getting a raise. And at the same time they have to worry about keeping their jobs from falling into the hands of the newcomers, the boys of foreign lands that would work for cheap, something that only increases the newspaper war between Pulitzer and Hearst. Where once the various newsboy groups were friends, they find that it is time to go their separate ways. It's every Newsie for himself, just as it is every man, woman, and child for themselves as the face of New York City changes, turning into a stranger of sorts.
so when there's dry times i wait for high times and then i put on my best, and i stick out my chest and i'm off to the races again!
brand new site, tons of canons open! or create an original! great players, easy-mod app, intermediate play.
When Logic Prevails « Result #10 on Mar 11, 2009, 10:40pm »
Two nuns went out of their convent for a walk. One of them is known as Sister Mathematical (SM) and the other one is known as Sister Logical (SL). It was getting dark and they were still far away from the convent.
SL: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for the past half-hour?
SM: Yes, I wonder what he wants.
SL: It's logical. He wants to rape us.
SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes at the most. What can we do?
SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.
SM: It's not working.
SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only logical thing. He started to walk faster too.
SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.
SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He cannot follows us both. So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.
Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is worried what has happened to Sister Logical. Then Sister Logical arrives.
SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here! Tell me what happened!
SL: The only logical thing happened. The man couldn't follow us both, so he followed me.
SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then?
SL: The only logical thing happened. I started to run as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could.
SM: And?
SL: The only logical thing happened. He reached me.
SM: Oh, dear! What did you do?
SL: The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up.
SM: Oh, Sister! What did the man do?
SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants.
SM: Oh, no! What happened then?
SL: Isn't it logical, Sister? A nun with her dress up can run faster than a man with his pants down........
