As the topic suggests, if you need to do anything major out of character (like have long conversations or plan your next attack or plotline or whatever), do it here. Just keeps the game clutter down :)
Okay kiddies, we've so far managed to impro our way through fight sequences and the like, but I think we should get slightly more "official" with things. So I would like your input.
Right at the minute I'm thinking of introducing some new stuff which will need to go on everyone's character sheets.
[b]Fight/Flight[/b]: Says which your character would prefer to do in a situation calling for it
[i]Fight[/i]: describe your fighting skill (n00b, leet kung fu master, average, brawler, etc)
[i]Flight[/i]: describe skill at running away (doesn't occur to do so until almost too late, very fast, not so fast, etc)
To get it on one line I'm thinking something along the lines of:
Fight/flight: flight (weak/good at hiding)
where the thing outside the brackets is the preferential method of dealing with situations that trigger the flight/flight response and the thing inside the brackets is the fight/flight proficiency.
Also contemplating adding in a strength and speed thingi, but undecided as of yet. That I think is going to rely entirely on people's thought processes, so contribute ;)
Finally, I'm taking off the "include as much or as little info" thingi on the character sheets, I'd like to know everything that you know, makes for easier GMing and easier for me to throw curves if people don't introduce their own curves. Yeah this is a fairly character driven game so I have no problem with people dragging us off on tangents, makes it more fun :)
:'( I'm really really sorry Tor and Nova I haven't been able to hang around much to post Spark is realy active when I come home. I'll try and post something soon after I've read the posts.
Don't feel bad Redspot. It's very understandeble in your situation real life can demand more time. I may not be involved in the play you are in, but I hope you can return soon enough for the others :)
Now I feel like I'm spending a large portion of my life apologising. I am REALLY sorry that the political crap is affecting you guys, specially seeing as I"m not sure how much it's bothering you or otherwise, it will eventually effect you and I'm hoping for a good outcome either way. It is tiring me out a lot and I'm really sorry it's been affecting gameplay.
Kids, I'm REALLY stuck for time right now. If you need a fix hit up Vinnie and Domino's weird roleplay board, link is in Private Quarters I believe. Otherwise feel free to carry on without me ;) Anyone listed on any of the character sheets consider off limits toil the players bring them back, any other characters I've thrown in are free to play, and feel free to bring more in.
I apologise for life and the universe getting in the way of this particular good time, I will try to reconnect when I'm a bit more with things (assuming this place hasn't gone and died in the meantime ;)
Ok, been waaaaay too long time since someone and especially me ( :'( ) have been posting here, so here's a little restarting up if some are still interested to play ^^
Arritey, I should be able to pick up, won't be as fast paced as I used to be coz I'm still busy, but unfortunately my other project (not the long running comic one) looks like it's going to drag on (hoped to finish it sometime soon).
I'm suddenly aware of how much time has passed, had lost track of it.
Kineela (I hope you read this, nobody reads this P) it would help a bit if you gave me some indication of where you were ) The other guys won't mind if you wanted to join in the Freedom Fighters thread, if you're happy to strike out on your own and bump into them later that's cool too. I'll jump in when I think of something.
But yeh knowing where you are and what you were doing will help out a bit, let me know either here or send me a message, tis all good.
Ugh... i'm back, for a little bit, may be on every other day, but if a spot in an RP is open, leme know.
As for the Tir arc, either or, i don't mind if it ends, and I'm not readly to call it quitz just yet :3
I'll update my char sheet in the meantime, and anyone else who reads this can drop me messages if they want me to join in.
Though when it comes to 'landing' on Mars, I may just go for the whole "Orbit... <static> .... Find Canyon.... <static> (something else unintelligible)...<more static> .... Repeat..... ...decaying.... <static lessening rapidly> ...Engines Fail... <ksst> Emergency landing<ksst> -ed. Coming Down! Anyone <Ksst> Try to find canyon to land <Ksst> (next part perfectly clear) Oh buggering Hell!" <transmission ends>"
Followed by me crash landing or something. that's the way I'd like to start. Flare for the Dramatic, :P:P sue me :3
I'm fairly relaxed and cruisy with whatever, unless something fast happens in between I usually just wait for everyone involved in the thread to post their dialogue/actions and keep moving.
Not to be a pain but what's happening with the RP I started? Should I just go ahead and continue role playing in a new thread or just keep waiting patiently? I just need to know wether it's done with or not that's all *nervous grin*.
I'll generaly cut them and start new topics when they get to about 40 posts or so. And I usually wait til everyone else in the thread has posted if I think they need to be doing something before moving it along. Where multiple players are concerned I'll usually give three days or so before I give it a kick.
Relax and be patient, it won't die as long as I'm still around ;)
*sigh of relief* Thanks ^..^! Actually I usually wait until everyone's posted their post too but I just wanted to make sure. Again, sorry to be a pain about it ^..^.
A female looks at them. She was doing her target practise. ''Maybe any help'' she said as she show them a glvoe on one of her hands. ''The name is Lura and you are'' she said staring at them.

Stop arguing about the size of Mars. It's not that important P

The Tir itself can still go on, just not sure what happened with Redspot, guess she got busy with work and family life as can happen.
Gimme a bit to think and I'll get us going again ;)

Umm.. in regards to the Freedom Fighters thread, I was waiting for Vinnie to post... it seems to be going in the pattern of Torama, vinnie, me.
I guess I'm just used to RPG's that don't like people posting out of turn *shrugs* Is is a little more relaxed here then?

I've kind of been familiar with that kind of system aswell, and sometimes I'm just confused of what to write next or what is happening :)
But feel free to push me character 'a bit' to the right direction, just a bit.

You guys were taking turns? oO
That explains a lot XD
I'm fairly relaxed and cruisy with whatever, unless something fast happens in between I usually just wait for everyone involved in the thread to post their dialogue/actions and keep moving.

WHen I do rpg's, who ever has something to write and wanna write it, they're welcome to write it. I don't take turns in my rpg's.
I just started one, it's called "friends and foes".
You guys can join if you want. Using two of my characters.

Just wondering what's happening with the Freedom Fighters thread and the Medical Thread?
Are we going to revive them or start new threads? Just wondering cos they're only 2 pages long and it seems that a new thread gets started at 3 pages.
*blinks* and if that makes sense to anyone else they're more awake than I am *grins*

They can keep going, I tend to truncate things at three pages mainly coz after that I start getting too lazy to read them P

Need someone to post on them then, I was the last one.

A female looks at them. She was doing her target practise. ''Maybe any help'' she said as she show them a glvoe on one of her hands. ''The name is Lura and you are'' she said staring at them.
Claw looked at the medic. She was hurt all over, and could barely move.
" Just get it over with.." she said, breathing weakly.
