Anything wrong with my request thread?

[Mingnon]

I'm having trouble trying to attract someone for my thread linked here: Seeking a Snatcher [AHiT RP]

I'm wondering; what am I missing with the thread? Do I need to describe something that I overlooked, like plot details or something more to the Snatcher or my characters' profiles? Or maybe there isn't as much interest in the AHiT fandom, currently.

Thoughts and ideas will be appreciated.

The RT reads fine to me personally. I think your biggest hurdle is A Hat in Time is a very obscure game for roleplaying purposes.

I've never heard of the fandom you're requesting, nor seen it on anyone else's request thread, so I am going to guess that that is your main issue. Niche fandoms take forever to find. I have a fandom that's been on my list since I joined and I have rarely if ever gotten any requests for it, and even if I did the RP either didn't start or fizzled out after a few posts. That's just the nature of wanting niche. Combine a fandom few people have even heard of with a specific pairing and a long list of requirements and you'll likely be waiting for a bit for a partner.

I agree with the others; the fandom you're requesting is very niche. It would also be a tall order for anyone who hasn't experienced the game to take on The Snatcher role. Aside from that, I think the rest of your RT is great. I particularly liked your RP Tenants, and your Ons/Offs were super easy to read.

Just echoing what others said. I am familiar with A Hat in Time as I've seen it on the steam store once or twice and I know it kinda had some light success, but it's a fairly niche fandom.

Great... so what should I do then? :/

Realistically, if you want to keep the same idea, you just have to wait and hope. You don't have to change your request thread, but part and parcel of niche fandoms is recognizing the pool for partners is gonna be equally small.

It might behoove you to change that into say, a general fandom thread if you have other fandoms that you're interested in RP'ing in - or purpose it into a multi purpose RP thread and keep the hat in time idea as one idea among others.
