Hello, peoples! (I hope the admins of this guild don't mind me posting this D: )Just making this short and sweet here.
All of you must have had a story going through your minds while listening to any song from TBM and I was just wondering - why not make a TBM-based RP with characters that fit the themes used in their songs? This is just an idea, don't know if it will work, though.
I would like to hear your opinions on it!
Thanks! ^.^

Seems interesting! What kind of songs/stories did you have in mind? I think something based off of what goes on in "Happy Birthday" can have an interesting story.

Halloweenz_Tragedy_TBM Seems interesting! What kind of songs/stories did you have in mind? I think something based off of what goes on in "Happy Birthday" can have an interesting story. The style I had in mind was one that I was obsessing with for a while now - Steampunk (Victorian-style sci-fi) - except with a dark, TBM-style twist. Their influence would add a lot of uniqueness to a story in that genre, because there aren't many that have that kind of combination.
I mostly got the idea from their video for "In The Dark" with the clock, the key and the music box. That's pretty much it.
I was also thinking of doing forest fantasy themes like the ones they had in their album arts and their cover of "The Neverending Story." I think that either of those themes would work very harmoniously, and that goes for your theme as well - only it would be cool if it was a murder mystery, and pretty Higurashi-reminiscent.
(By the way, would you agree with me if I said that TBM should have made a music video for Red Stars?)

The steampunk idea seems cool, different, but definitely a great story idea. And yes, I think that quite a few of TBM's songs should be music videos. So many songs of theirs always project a full blown image and story in my head, that I just wish it could be developed into a music video, or any other kind of media (film, video, TV show, book, etc.)

It will be a totally unique approach and I think that it will create an interesting sub-fandom for TBM fans. I even modified my post format to suit this purpose! xd   An RP inspired by the music of The Birthday Massacre - coming soon in the official TBM Guild!  ♫The more bleak the day, the less I behave as if everything black can wash away.
Why can't I just trade a dream far away to peel back the shade behind the gray?♫

Eh... though I do love their music, I'm not really much of a RP person. If this does happen, I probably won't participate in it. Sorry :[

Sakura Nashimara Eh... though I do love their music, I'm not really much of a RP person. If this does happen, I probably won't participate in it. Sorry :[ That's totally fine with me, despite the fact that we haven't been having virtually any activity ever since I started this whole thing. I'm beginning to feel that it's my fault first of all, because of the homework load that has been hindering me in my motivation to participate in this RP that could have actually been really successful had I been more dedicated to it, along with everyone else in this guild.
To those who have wished to participate in this failure of an RP, I deeply and sincerely apologize for my laziness. Hopefully we can get it back up on its feet this summer. I'll just be needing your support.

I fell yah. I got a job in March, and it's been eating up my spare time like crazy. Since my local library has started it's reading club as well, what's left of my spare time has been spent reading too. They give you a drawing for every six books you log that you've read, and if they pull your ticket, you win an Xbox Kinect, so more than anything, I'm reading in hope of winning that so that I can sell it. Money's really tight for me right now. Stupid college. If anyone does still want in this RP, I'd gladly promote it :]
