Growing A Tree.
A re-doing of the idea by our group member @LunarShines, it is designed to help the GMs of young role-plays. The point here would be to give them support, enough to hopefully get things going and running well. We'd be giving them advice developing story, stories of what we've learned from own our past tries, insights on what could happen to their RP down the road, occasional bits of advertising, and whatever else they may need.
The Caveat
Yes, the point of this is to help the creators of small, promising roleplays, but we are not there to stay by their side forever. We help and then we leave for GM to run it on their own. Be very careful not to get attached. We give assistance and then we go. The help is to jump-start the roleplay and assist the GM in being ready to handle it by themselves.
The Starting Points
The starting points. These are few of the things we'll need to nail down before this can begin. If you have any comments or answers, please don't hesitate to speak your mind on how you think we should go about this.
If anyone has something I don't see, comment on that below so it can be added here. Or..just put it yourself. :smile4: You should be able to edit this post. If not, let me know. Looking forward to seeing how we can get this started. Hopefully it will be able to tackle the problem of when good RPs die because of lack of help.

Project Outline
Work Flow 1:
Browse the site (most likely the 'Interest Check Forums') and ask the GM of a roleplay you're interested in, whether they'd like to participate in the 'Growing A Tree' program. If they have questions you can tag someone from here to tell them more about it.
Each member of Story Mode can only nominate 1 RP to be in the competition.
Work Flow 2:
Each RP chosen by a member of Story Mode (And the GM accepts) will be placed into a public thread highlighting their work. Users will be able to vote on this thread, for the RP they want to see the group help with.
This public thread for voting will be open for 1 week. After that, it closes and we will have our winner. In case of a tie, we will vote amongst ourselves for which one we'd prefer to work for.
Work Flow 3:
The winning GM will be invited into the Story Mode group to have conversations with us on how to help make the roleplay work and get from us any assistance they need. After the GM feels ready (Or after 2 weeks; whichever is earlier), the user will be removed from the group and left to work for their RP on their own.

- How do we go about choosing which one wins?
- What exactly would we help the GM out with?
- What things won't we do for them as a group?

Project Outline
- This contest will be semi-annual. Meaning we will do this twice a year.
- RPs will be chosen by us. One pick for each member of the group. (The search will last a period of 1 week). They will then be placed into a public thread where users can vote on who we should help.
- We will assist with Lore adjustments (not creation!), Plot outlines, Mechanics, and have a Question & Answer session with the GM. We can also help with advertising and recruiting players.
- We will not be GMing a roleplay for anybody.
