[OOC] Interplanetary Space Friends - A Game About Space Adventures, Friendship and Fast Food

[Archmage MC]

@Hylozoist@Hank@DracoLunaris@Valor@Sovi3t@Archmage MC@TwelveOf8 So I figured, with Elarin being the pilot, that he'd be as close to an original crew member as possible, especially given The Will's need to modify the ship, you'd want someone who had been there for most of the modifications to be flying it. If there's any issues, concerns, information that needs shared, etc. Let me know, cause I'm about to make a post, and I wanna make sure I get info right.

@DepressedSoviet

This is probably for the best.

I am cool with this. Though note that its more that we have had lots of engineers that keep doing whatever they want to all the machinery and The Bees enthusiastically try and document everything, with varying degrees of success. There are probably a few very old buttons that neither of us know what they do.

@DracoLunaris

Yeah, I don't think Toony will be messing with the ship unless asked to. She kinda doesn't want to be the repair lady, she'd rather just do fun stuff. But if you need parts to repair with, she can fabricate them for you no problem. xD so you two can tinker with the ship :P.

EDIT: EVENTUALLY the guild wont be down half the time when you try to load a page soon T.T

Could we make it that I befriend one of the bees from the hive? The bee that only knows stuff about a very specific thing, like cats, pencils, etc? Sometimes have that bee make puns based on the subject it knows? If you're not into it then don't worry about it. If you want things to go that way but it's too much trouble then I could write as that one specific bee. Just spitballing ideas.

@TwelveOf8

So, your going to flirt with the vampire, and not the robot? Why not flirt with both? :P. I can understand not flirting with the spider though. Poor girl must not get much xD.

@TwelveOf8

I wasn't going to have the bees have that much specialization in what they know about, their minds and memories are sort of muddled together like a raid array because having the one Bee that know how to use spoons die would be really unhelpful. Making friends with one is the same as making friends with all the ones of the same type. So if you want to make friends with all the engineer bees(or something) that would be pretty cool as they could be your assistants.

On the writing one yourself bit, feel free to order the bees about and write what they do so long as The Will isn't explicitly in command of them(like the ones in the restaurant are) and you can kind of assume that if your on the ship there are bees available to do whatever. This goes for everyone. Just try to stick with the third person group think style of communication, if you would be so kind.

@Archmage MC

you never know someone might be really into milfs. she's probably super popular with other giant spiders tough.

[Hank]

Gonna read through all your posts and get a response up tomorrow.

@Hank

I'll wait for that post, then post myself and move things on a step. Today is fairly quiet for me, so I can keep an eye on things here, watch Games Done Quick and generally be indoors!

[Fancy Party]

This looks interesting, and full of satyr, but sounds like I got here a little too late. Let me know if a spot ever opens back up. This sort of reminds me of Adventure Time for some reason.

[Archmage MC]

@Hank Ok so all thats left is for Mr. Dwarf guy by @Sovi3t to post after you and everyone will be accounted for.

[Hylozoist]

@Fancy Party

Shall do! I'm sorry there's no space, but you shall be Top Of The List for when there is. Obviously watching Adventure Time is a good start for what I'm aiming for, and if you've not watched Space Dandy, I'd suggest giving that a watch so you can see how much stuff I've shamelessly gutted from that to use as the building blocks for this space-nonsense.

[Hylozoist]

Added The Inventory to the first post; apologies for taking a while to do that.

[Archmage MC]

OMG OMG OMG. Have you guys read the 6th part of the long TF2 comic? It came out today and man, I <3 the medic. Hes so funny!

[Hylozoist]

Have you guys read the 6th part of the long TF2 comic?

@Archmage MC

I have not! Let me go and remedy this right now.

Edit: Yeah, the Medic kind of stole the show with that issue.

[Archmage MC]

Yep, Medic is awesome!

Oh @Hylozoist are you playing anyone in this RP or just being the DM?

[Hylozoist]

Oh @Hylozoist are you playing anyone in this RP or just being the DM?

@Archmage MC

Just being the GM. I grew up playing roleplaying games with friends and relatives around a kitchen table, so tend to default to that sort of thinking - I enjoy running the NPCs and prefer keeping the spotlight on the player characters as a GM. There's no shortage of great games around here that I can accidentally sabotage take part in as a player to scratch my Hylozoist-as-a-player itch!

@Hylozoist

Ah fair enough. I kinda RPed with just whatever on forums but I know how the DM system works. Can't IRL RP because the RP club is full of neckbeards who don't bathe or use deoderant and there are no ladies. Thats a double whammy of nope. And I don't mean that to be rude, thats literally the clubs around my area. I wouldn't mind it much if they bathed... >.<

[Hylozoist]

@Archmage MC

Yeah, it can be a bit hit or miss, to put it kindly. I'd say the trick is to find people who you'd actually want to socialise with, and then introduce them to roleplaying games - one of my friends ended up asking what all the "weird books" were on my bookshelf, I sheepishly explained what we do on with them on a Saturday night, and he wanted to give it a try.

There's always things like Roll20 if you want to go for something that's a bit closer to "traditional" roleplaying games but without the need to actually have to be in the same room as them. As I get alarmingly shy around people I don't know, playing games like that online can be nice when my regular group is taking a brea-

Hold that thought, Bishi Bashi Special is up next on Games Done Quick.

[Archmage MC]

@Hylozoist I know I'm pretty nasty at DnD even though I've never played it. Mostly because you can do the wonky stuff and its usually far, far more effective than being direct and stuff. Dunno about any other RP games like that though.

I'm more interested in finding friends than RPing though for the most part. Good friends are hard to come by. You know, the type that invites you to parties and the like? Dunno why they're so hard to find >.>. And usually you can't invite online buddies to parties since they are across the globe. I want a reason to cook! Oh well.

Paper Mario TTYD and Undertale will be great runs at AGDQ.

@Hylozoist

Yeah, I thought it might be somewhat inspired by that. I've never actually seen it, but I've heard good things about the show. Either way, I hope this RP goes well, I'll be keeping an eye on it.

[Archmage MC]

Hey guys. Keep an eye on this store.steampowered.com/app/361420 Its basically a better No Mans Sky. Sure its an alpha now, but yeah, keep an eye on it, nothing can be as bad as NMS xD. It doesn't have much inside it atm though since its a pretty early alpha and I think its on Steam to either be a beta playground or to do what most EA stuff does.

Also has anyone played Skullgirls? Or Mighty no. 9? Just saw the latter in AGDQ. If I remember that game had a really bad rap earlier this year until No Mans Sky came along. Though apparently it wasn't too hard seeing a story 'movie' with all the character dialog on youtube. And I can see why people disliked it. Is it really that hard to animate a face? And apparently it got like 4-5 mil. Yeah I can see why it was infamous xD.
