This has so far been a very interesting debate, seeing peoples ideas
on roleplay and avalon as a whole.
Firstly i do not believe fighting to be good roleplay. If you are a
fighter then it is what you say between your fights and how you act with
those around you that (In my mind), constitutes roleplay. There
is no roleplaying skill in bashing a few macro's so lets not pretend
that there is!
Avalon is (as some have said) is very close to real life and what
occurs in Avalon can invoke strong emotions in us - I am sure I am
not the only player who regularly screams 'BASTARD!!!!!' at the monitor
Sometimes in Avalon it is very difficult to find time to roleplay in
Avalon, the structure of the Justice system, the attacks on cities, and
the constant -Someone bashes you, Someone bashes you, The angel of death...
messages mean that you spend so much time pushing buttons and speed typing
that not much time is left for roleplay.
