Skythikon, two things. Maximum members of a squad is five, so drop an operator if you wouldn't mind :) also, and this is my fault for not expanding on it, the Team Callsign is what your team is referred to, and that's why it comes under the Team Leader. Individual members of the squad do not have their own callsigns. Fix that, and you're good to go.

Argh, looks like I got too caught up making characters, though I'll admit at one point I was wondering how I was gonna control all of them. XD Will get everything fixed right after this, thanks!

Done

Liking how things are shaping up. Glad someone pointed out the noise a heli makes. Good job so far guys. I'll have Sergei weigh in, in a little bit, which should relieve any impasse between ideas.

I REALLY need to keep working on mine. Though they'll be in, no doubt. Skythion, great to see you again! How are you?

This is moving to fast for someone like me who can't really post on weekends. But i will make a exception for this one.

Good to see you as well! Passed out of basic training a few weeks ago, right now undergoing training to be an air force driver. Complete novice to driving anything between a Ford Everest and a five ton truck off and on road in two months. ><'' Otherwise, doing fine.

You're in the Air Force?

Technically, yes, but only vecause the formation my unit is under handles aerial photo recon. My unit just handles the supply and logistics side of things. I'm in the Singapore Armed Forces, by the way.

Yep. Thinking about ever getting Lima back up, Skyth? I want to maybe wrap up that RP, go straight to Copenhagen- I'll ask Silverwind, if you're still in. Going to post. My guys are a mixed bunch, but no doubt, will be a fun team- moreover being a weapons team.

I wouldn't mind. We can talk more via PMs. Also, just something I found amusing. Leopard happens to be the name of the company I was under during basic.

Cool. PM sent. My characters aren't the most detailed, but I am restricted time wise, and hence did the best I could. Most of it will become fleshed in post. Hate to sound like a mean bastard too, but to Kurai- make your posts longer. Please. It pains me to see it, people write quite thorough posts, you wrote two lines. It's a Casual RP- and while you're new (I've spent five years here), it's fine, but keep in mind, this is something that I've seen move an RP back. Careful. I should also advise, being quite cautious with ship insertions. Look into the incident of the USS Bainbridge for a good example. Helicopters, boats, anything can be and will be used as a distraction. Moonlight is also important, and no doubt, something to be asked- and whether our kit, eg. NOD sets would work in the aftermath of it's deployment.

yeah sorry dude. just what i was thinking of writing would mean a paragraph of description of his voice instead of actual talk or story movement. which no one really wants

If you read the rules, you'd know the GM (the guy who made the RP) said your posts can be as long or short as you want, as long as they provide meaningful-ness to the plot. As in not describing the taste of a drink or the colour of a gun.

ok.

Oh no, I don't mind that factor. It's just that sometimes you need to write more than two lines- sometimes, there's a little more than just simply a small anecdote to make, that they have a point. I would say that it adds a character to the RP, it makes it understandable to a further extent. Though of course, that's the policy, and I can't make you do it.

i do try dude.

On the issue of Kurai Assassin's post lengths... Skill requirements, post lengths and all that other jibba-jabba are a waste of time in my opinion. You can make an RP, tell the players that their posts have to be X long and of X quality, and then laugh as half of your player base falls well below what you have specifically requested. So then what do you do? Well, telling the one line warriors, or the no grammar gurus to go fuck themselves is one way. Another of course is to kindly ask them to leave, or up their game. Sometimes it gets ugly, sometimes they leave, but I always end up feeling bad, and you know why? Usually it's the lesser skilled players who are actually more able roleplayers than the heavy duty, professional writer types. Sure, their posts tend to be small, and their grammar usually sucks, but they always have purpose. Their character does something, or says something, which is more often than not a notable event. The big hitters, the guys who write me 5,000 words in a single post, are the ones who upset me more than not. I trawl through 5,000 words, finding that only three paragraphs really add anything. The rest of it is their descriptive wet dream. It's boring. It bores the other players. Before long, too many of those big hitters, and that's all you're left with. 3 guys who love to write you massive long posts about not much. The RP stalls, and it dies. Not to mention, that with weaker writers, it's never a question of laziness or lack of enthusiasm, but of diminished capability. I'd much rather roleplay with someone who's serious, but writes like a cat flying a kite, than someone who can't be arsed and is just firing words at me for the sake of firing words. Kurai Assassin, you're doing fine. I understand why some peeps may have a few issues, but so far, you haven't done anything to jeopardise the RP. Carry on. I could go on, but I think this has been resolved. If anyone has any more concerns with another player's posting style/ability, I'd prefer it if you PM'd me so I can look into matters myself. This way, no one's name gets run into the mud, no one gets embarrassed and I don't have to make public speeches. Instead it gets resolved constructively.

Righty'o, I think the plan has formed into something I can work with. Antov will be chucking you all out of the operations room in about an hour or so, so make sure you've all had your say, because after that we're fast forwarding to the mission. Konrad, your guys are getting a um, separate mission. R.E.S.C.U.E's chief exec has some unfinished business in Somalia, and I think your team looks like the perfect one for it.
