[OOC] Ace Combat: The Global War

[nautilusmp]

I'll have to make that reaction made in the Dresdene mission.

[Rafale]

Yay, Hoffnung! I really liked that mission, but it made me feel like a terrible person.

Brain...overloading......too much.......information.........aghhh!

Sorry. I'll edit it down into something a bit more manageable.

[Lost Cause]

And now I feel bad that none of my PS2 controllers work any more. =(

[Rafale]

Alright, so I figured that while I have a bit of free time waiting for the rest of you to post, I'd work on the in between missions stuff. First of all, between missions, characters will be of course allowed to interact, but please, for the sake of realism, try to get them to have at least a small meal and a few hours of sleep. I would prefer that you don't play your characters like I play Sim characters ("NO SLEEPING OR EATING UNTIL THIS PERSON IS YOUR WIFE. YES, THREE MORE HOURS OF CHATTING AND FLIRTING. YOU HEARD ME!").

I will also be implementing briefing and debriefing posts. During briefing posts, I will of course explain the mission and objectives at hand, as well as give enemy counts and motivations, before moving onto to either take-offs or starting in flight, depending on popular choice (democracy is fun). Debriefings will follow a principal close to that of Ace Combat, not only giving results of the mission, but of individual pilots too, and award credits based on it. Medals will be awarded and aircraft will be unlocked to buy.

You will probably be thinking that this may be hard to manage, and I'll agree, but my passion for Ace Combat will pull me through!

[The Mage]

that's what I was hoping you'd say *wipes tear* your actually making this feel like AC!

[Rafale]

All in a day's work, my friend.

Though I need to ask a favor of all of you. To facilitate all of this, it would be very helpful to keep the following on hand (preferably under a hider in your signature, your choice) to be updated between missions so I can keep track of things. Fill it out with your own things, please.

QuickTrack

Name: (Character's name)
Affiliation: (Their squadron, team, whatever)
Call Sign: (Callsign, then TAC name (ex: Wardog-One "Blaze"))
Aircraft: (Their current aircraft)

AIRCRAFT STATUS:
(One of the following:
[SORTIE]=On mission.
[STAND BY]=On stand by, ready for sortie
[REPAIRING]=Under repairs.
[INACTIVE]=Either grounded or damaged beyond quick repairs.)

PILOT STATUS
Morale: (Low, high, et cetera)
Medical Status: (Injury, illness if necessary)

Total credits: (In the beginning, we are all at 0 Cr.)

Give it some consideration, put it in your sig if you want, or just keep it in a document that you can easily access and update.

[Rhona W]

I've updated the list of weapons etc. to make it relevant to Ace Combat terms to make it hopefully easy to understand and less of an overload.

Will post in IC shortly.

[Lost Cause]

TESTING SIG

[TheFake]

think I'll use a google doc.

[Rafale]

TheFake said

Fine with me, so long as its easily accessible for my perusal.

[Rhona W]

I'll probably do the same, and PM you the link.

I've also finally made a post. Had a lot of fun writing it!

[Lost Cause]

Maybe we should make this into one shared Google Spreadsheet.

[Rafale]

I don't like spreadsheets. They scare me.
Anyway, Lost Cause, we're waiting on you. If you want, you can do your IC post before doing the back story, if you would prefer to do it that way? I'm fine with it.

[Driving Park]

QuickTrack is now my sig. I enjoyed reading your post, Silver!

[Rhona W]

QuickTrack link is in my sig, as I didn't have enough free characters to put it in my sig ><;;

Glad you liked my post! I was hoping it would go down well.

[Rafale]

I quite liked it too.
Thank you all for taking the time to add the QuickTrack. It will help a lot in the future.

[Lost Cause]

OK, Miku is up and flying.

And doing a very bad job of it.

[nautilusmp]

test. Added the "Damage" row, since it could be useful

[Rafale]

I'll write up an IC post to advance the dogfight tomorrow. Lost Cause, care to allow Anemi to aid Miku?
