RPG types information and survey

hi guys i'm Legion
i'm posting this here to find out which kinds of RPGs would be most popular.

if anyone doesn't know about the different types of RPG listed above i have written some explanations here
Information:
Action - an RPG that concentrates mainly on fighting, as is obvious by the name
Adventure - an RPG that is a cross between Action & Puzzle RPGs this has elements of puzzle solving and fighting.
Mystery/Puzzle - there is a mystery which the players must (for some reason) investigate in this type there is little or no fighting
Mafia - this type of RPG places the players in a situation where someone has committed a crime and the general masses must decide amongst themselves who to lynch each "day" (one day in the RPG can usually last up to a week) during the "day" players will be allowed to change there minds as much as they want.
Pit Fighter/Arena Of Death - these RPG types are where the players take the place of gladiators fighting in a set area that does not change. in this RPG players are usually set up in a team against a group of monsters or alone against the other players, however variations like players VS players VS monsters (or NPC players) are also used.

as you can see i have put longer descriptions on the Mafia & Arena RPGs this is because i belive the top three are pretty self explanatory, however should anyone have any RPG questions (or comments) please reply to this topic

A Pit Fight sounds like a very Ogrey place to start, I think

*votes*

Mafia would be fun with an all Gnoblar cast

Edit: I'll sticky any active RPGs in the same way they do over at the Underempire.

I like the sound of the Pit-fight type, and the mafia. But, I also like the sound of the puzzle/adventure type... Not too ogre-like though, is it? Sadly...

i only just looked at this thread, i also like the idea of an adventure/puzzle RPG. i could try running one but as i'm already about to start two i don't know if i'd be able to. if anyone else wants to run one i'd love to join...

if i do run an Adventure RPG the story would probably be something about a group of maneaters traveling in search of riches... or something like that.

i don't know what to do about a puzzle RPG though... like you said Josh "not too ogre-like" if anyone has any ideas for a puzzle RPG involving ogres i'd love to hear them.

I'd be interested in joining any of those types and I could dm if you really wanted me too but i'd rather see someone else do it so i have an idea on how people run them

glad your interested.

it's probably not a good idea to start an RPG until you've been in one first (although i've never been in one and these two are my 2nd/3rd RPGs)

if you want to see how RPGs are played why not visit the under empire? they have loads of RPGs there and there may be some that are still open for new players (you will have to play as a rat though ) - my first RPG is there as well !!!
