SERIOUSLY WHAT PART OF HALT ARE WE HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING??

@KatherinWinter
Maybe they don't know what a Halt means yet? They could be new RPers. Also I apologize for posting after the halt. I was two minutes too late so it is probably my fault.

And I believe it went a bit like this:

Sparkly Max and ShadowMan Jack were chatting it up as everyone enter the gym, busy making friends with one another. Anna (who had been already in the gym stretching) had been, for the sake of RP, ignored and/or unseen by the two. So as everyone filed in and made their observations, Anna overheard Jack make a small pun about hands, to which she was offended. Being a sensitive sixteen girl underneath all that amazon glory, she approached Jack aggressively, thinking the joke was made at her expense.

Max nobly defended his friend by throwing a chunk of gleaming diamond from his shell earlier. Jack in turn stood up for himself as quiet Brigit took Anna's hand, in order to support her. Anna, feeling wronged by both boys, was mortified and close to tears, but her anger was only sedated by the support of the small mute redhead.

Upon seeing the amazon teen with six arms tearing up, I believe this is when Max came to a realization that he had almost hurt someone, and so he overreacted. And Jack apologized on his behalf? And Brigit cutely hugs Anna to help her feel better. And Jack starts shouting his own lament before setting himself to the side as his friend Max is running from his shame and fears, away from everyone else.


And now the RP is officially
halted
aka "paused" so say the GM~ so that all the other RPers can either catch up or make their own posts accordingly.

Yes, I believe this is a small summary of what in the dramatic world just happened. At least to my understanding anyway~

@SadCubone@BlizzWell, then perhaps we can let the bad relations linger a bit for interest value and later have them all make up? ^^

Ya know that is a really good summary. But Max did see kids coming in he just didn't really acknowledge them.

Indeed~ I was only stating that Anna and whoever else might of posted in the gym before Max and Jack were not acknowledged and so have no mention in any of the posts between MAx and Jack ^^

Last time I checked Halt was used in more then RPs. It is pretty universal

Honestly I have never seen any other GM do it. But it was the only way I could think of to try to catch up.

@Blizz Just that she is really tall and muscular for a sixteen year old girl. Amazons were female warriors in Greek mythology who were know to be taller and stronger than most men.

A Halt is sometimes used in Free RP by experienced GMs when the RP is moving too fast, has gotten too confusing and/or needs the attention of the GM who makes sure it is moving in the right direction. Some GMs use it and some don't. Just like how Character Bios are also called "Character Skeletons" or "Character Sheets (CS)". It all just depends on where you have gotten your experience from~



EDIT:
@KatherinWinter Hm~ Yes~ Perhaps so~

Amazon is term used to signify/identify a woman/girl into a certified Badass. As from the Mythological reference of Hippolyta and further subverted in popular culture and comics in the form of our lovely lady, Diana or Wonder Woman.

It is a general term used to signify women who can dance with burly men, so to say and either trample their pride or hold their own.

Thus, with Anna being an "amazon" means, the girl who's ripped and can rip you a new one. Amen.

Thanks. I could have printed out an entire essay on the use of the term in both actual mythological texts and later in pop culture. But I felt that it would be counter-productive to do that. It is easier to speak a language everyone understands. Rather than confuse things with overly verbose replies. Though, I like to write longer posts. But I can't hold everyone to my personal yardstick, that kills the fun and becomes sort of elitist which is entirely against the premise of meeting new people and living a fantasy.

Your posts have been a breath of fresh air though. Also, I suggest Blizz and Cubone to make use of Titanpad to collaborate posts to reduce small one liners. It gets kind of discouraging when you come home from work to find 120 posts waiting to be read. If you want, I can create a personal space for this RP to help collabs.

I am not a GM for this RP. If you feel you have more to say in a post, by all means do. I'm here because I enjoy reading stuff that others cooked up.

@Blizz
I am assuming it's a program used to help with 'collaborations'.

Collaborations are where two or more people communicate outside of IC, to write a post together. For example: I write a post, and send it to you through Skype, or a PM on this site. Then, you edit it and add in your character's reactions, and send it back to me. We could go back and forth until we think it's good enough, or long enough, or whatever we like.

I have caught up. As long as we have all caught up and on the same page of who is where. I will life it.

Actually that is a good idea. They could also use PMs but that's a lot of cutting and pasting.

wtf is titanpad


It's...Kind of like a notepad... You post and then Cubone responds. Then you can copy and paste it here.

If you can make your post long that is great. But I wont demand you to do so. Just make sure that your post are clear enough to be understood.

The Halt is lift. I think everything has been straightened out. If anyone is confused PLEASE let me know. I would like everyone to react to the ice that is freezing the room and then I will have the housekeeper ask for volunteers.
