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

Sorry about the weekend delay, folks. I will re-read up on the IC posts and have a response up in about twelve hours time, barring any unforeseeable kitchen related problems. I hope everyone had a good weekend; I spent most of mine trying to hide my power level amongst alarmingly normal people.

@Hylozoist

That's perfectly fine. Don't worry about us. You just go at the pace you feel you can manage. We still have a hell of a lot of lore to write up. That's gonna take some time. I thought I had an idea but then I lost it. Maybe it'll come back, maybe.

I personally didn't have a good weekend. I wanted to go to the beach but it had to be raining the whole two days. Hot as balls during the week, rainy during the weekend. Way to go planet earth. Maybe switch it the other way around next time? Just a thought.

@TwelveOf8

I had to re-read that, because it took me a moment to remember that "January" doesn't mean "Godforsaken Chilliness: The Month" everywhere else in the world. Hopefully the weather will be kinder to you next weekend, or you can find a chance to slip off on a weekday when it is sunny to enjoy yourself!

Also - post is up! With a few hours to spare too! I'm actually ahead of schedule for today. I can do anything! Anything!

[Squad 404]

Put up a post. Please inform me if anything is wrong with it.

@Valor

Looks fine from here! I did have to go and check how big a half dollar coin is, and fight the urge to get sucked into Wikipedia (no, I will not click on that link, I'm just here to find out the size of this coin... no, Wikipedia, stop, stop!).

[Fancy Party]

Come to think of it, this is starting to remind me a bit of that old show, Tripping the Rift.

@Fancy Party

I've not seen it, but I've got an hour and a half to kill this morning, so I shall start rectifying that immediately.

[Squad 404]

I put up a post describing Vanessa's room and how she came to be on the ship. Please inform me if anything is wrong.

[Archmage MC]

I'll get a post up when I wake up.

[Hylozoist]

I'll throw up a post later on today, or tomorrow morning, to establish a Ship AI as an NPC, which can provide a bit of information on Ofromia.

As Vonny has attended some of Zane Heron's parties before, I'm happy to say that any extra embellishments that @Sovi3t wishes to add are a-okay. As Bunz is on the planet too, if you (@Fancy Party) have anything that you think the planet really needs, bearing in mind what I've already sort of hinted at regarding the place, let me know and I'll throw it in.

Apologies for the general slow pace of my posting. I've been trying to draw up a tourist brochure to Ofromia, and it turns out my drawing skills aren't particularly up to much, so it looks less like an advert for an Art Deco inspired city and more like the scribbles of a child with too much sugar and not enough attention span. I've got a few errands to run this afternoon, but I'll poke my head by when I can this afternoon and tonight to answer any questions that might pop up.

[TwelveOf8]

One question @Hylozoist. Do we design our own rooms on board the Quest for flavour or are they already designed? Also, should we wait for you to move things along if the some important player characters are no shows?

[Squad 404]

@TwelveOf8

If they're already designed, then I'm going to need to redo my post since I described Vanessa's room. Heh, whoops.

[DepressedSoviet]

@Valor@TwelveOf8@HylozoistI would imagine that the rooms of those who were already crewmembers, such as Elarin or Vanessa, would already be customized to how our characters would want them. Based on what was said about the items of the now-gone crewmembers being replaced, those of us who are boarding the ship for the first time have room designs of those who held that room just before them. IE Fiddlestick's room likely still has a lot of stuff from whoever was in that room before their...uhm...'untimely departure'.

@TwelveOf8

@DepressedSoviet has it spot on, more or less; recent additions to the crew might very well be in the process of decorating their room to their tastes (or just living amongst the things left behind by the dead retired), while those who have been on board for a bit longer probably have things set up just how they like them. A trip to Space Ikea might be required at some point in the future, or maybe take a job on Soft Furnishings Planet (come for the prices, stay because it's so darned comfy).

As for moving things along if we're left waiting on people, I think that's a fair responsibility for me to have. I would like to get everyone on to the ship, and from there do a bit of what-people-do-on-the-ship while it travels through space. I don't think anyone would likely have a problem if I drew a curtain on the Henderson's Ribs scene and said that those that hadn't gone to the ship were now on the ship, but just in case there's any objections...

Are most people happy for me to draw the curtain on the Henderson's Ribs scene and move everyone in a ship-wardly direction?

[Squad 404]

@Hylozoist

I've already moved Vanessa onto the ship, so I'm more than happy to move onto the next chunk of story.

@Valor

I'll wait until tomorrow morning (about 16 hours from now, give or take) to let others weigh in, then I'll make a decision one way or t'other and post.

[DracoLunaris]

@Hylozoist
I am also ready to blow this joint and be off on our adventure.

[TwelveOf8]

Fire away @Hylozoist

[Archmage MC]

I'm ready to do ship stuff too xD. Was going to post but then I wasn't sure if three was anything else I had to do with ship stuff.

[Hylozoist]

Post is (mostly) up, I'm going to be stuck indoors for most of today without much to do, so I might throw out some more posts if anyone else is around. As is usual for me, the weekend is probably going to wind up being quite busy (I got invited out to lunch!), but I'll make sure to check things in the morning before I go out, and in the evening before I fall asleep.
