think back to the golden days of pop culture. the simple life is on tv, britney is just at the start of her breakdown, hilary duff is america's sweetheart and pop punk is all the rage. social media exists at a bare minimum and the only connection fans have to their favorite celebrities are the dozens of gossip blogs that have popped up across the internet. pink is the new blog and oh no they didn't! are among the most popular sources for the gossip hungry. and celebrities are all too happy to provide the entertainment - broadcasting their fights, feuds, break ups, make ups and hook ups without a second thought.

wayback is here to let you relive all the glory that was the mid 00s. our game is set in 2005 and will center around the celebs that were popular at the time. you'll play your celeb at the age they were as of september of 2005, and play out all the drama that happened (plus some of your own creation of course). as your mods, we'll be posting a weekly tabloid "recap" to remind you what was happening with your celeb at the time and provide you with plenty of fodder for the game. album releases, movie premieres, scandals will all play out along mostly the same timeline. (if you want to play with the timing of some scandals for the sake of your storylines it will be approved on a case by case basis.)

this is a gpsl all about drama and having fun, a throwback to the way rp used to be. so pick a celeb and come join us as we relive the past.
