RSM Matsuri Weekends
I've come across the realization (a while ago to be honest) that this game is slowly dying from this side of the fence. And I started believing that maybe it wasn't the game but the idea that we are fallen apart into small groups without those old comps and meets, (Nemesis Tuesdays as a perfect Example) is what kept us all together and interested in the game. Practicing for comps and photo shooting-all part of what was once an active community, but I believe the most significant factor was the themed events. Old roots drifting.
So here I am, nothing special about me. Obviously not an iconic figure but I am definitely interested in keeping this game alive. I joined the game late. Skipped it's best months and joined in the dying ones. All I want is to give it a last try before the rest of my friends decide to quit the game.
Any ideas? I am not here to host my own event but I would like something where everyone would contribute to make it what it is (or will be if we get together for this)
I had planned just simple themed events to begin with. Weekends ofcourse. If it goes well we can easily hold a few rooms during the week. Mostly at the afternoon for our Europe/Asia (Africa?) buddies and if enough interest is shown we can host two events (a day) during the weekends this to include those who can only get online late at night.
I shouldn't need to be the only one hosting the events. I am no more or less mature as the rest here. We are all grown ups so there will be a a bunch of selected Lobby Hosts to keep the chance of the event from being cancelled because one person couldn't show up.
Media: I don't have a capture card right now but I would like the idea of having a main event in the weekend where we can get footage/pictures. Many people here are surely interested on being YouTube famous
Themes: Low HP, specific manufacturer, Night Matsuri, Rain Matsuri(This can obviously be mixed in the same lobby) Comfort Medium tires (if approved by you, ofcourse) Japanese, European, American. Sedan, Coupe, V8, JZ Rotary. (COMPS?) Many to choose from. A pole would be held either here or the lobby.
For those who don't check GTP as often (Many) I would like the idea of creating a skype/Whatsapp/Kik group (or any of your preference) as a source of communication so everyone can be informed of any change of plans or spontaneous lobbies.
Don't even think it twice if you want to criticize any of the ideas above. This is a community. Not a dictatorship.
