[OOC] Underwater Fire of their Eyes

[Loki Odinson]

@Mokley You mean 1x1 in PMs?
And I've got no problems with it as each character can actually meet Sorn initially, then part ways or something before they stumble across him again who know how long later.

[Rekaigan]

@Mokley So it's like he explored all over the place already and met everyone in different circumstances?

[drewccapp]

I'm all for it!

@Loki Odinson

Yup, exactly my thought!

@Mokley So it's like he explored all over the place already and met everyone in different circumstances?

@Rekaigan

Yup, you got it! Probably while he was a pirate, I can just come up with reasons he's not with his crew.

My reasoning is that we could post the PM 1x1 later as a flashback chapter, which would satisfy the character's introduction into the story. We can swing by that character's island to pick them up with a smaller adventure in the main RP, some introductions among the characters, then we'll be off to the next. I love the character intro story method, but I don't love that everyone is forced to wait so long for a chance to write, haha.

A downside is that other PCs wouldn't be involved with the intro adventure, which kinda sucks.

We could totally do both! If you (or multiple players!) would prefer to do your intro through PM, drop me a message! Otherwise we'll do your intro in the main RP as originally planned. Both are great. :D

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Mokley It sounds good to me, really, but I've no idea where to start.

[Eventua]

If we're going to do it this way instead, then, is it best to drop the 'seperate group' co-op through PMs between other players that we had originally been considering?

[Mokley]

@Eventua It's still a great idea! Go ahead as planned, of course. :D

[Loki Odinson]

Just putting it out there, if anyone wants to collaborate with me for any reason, feel free to give me a poke. Otherwise, I'm fine with waiting as I would be disappearing for a couple of days.

[CollectorOfMyst]

*pokes everyone*

>Hey. Hey, wake up! We overslept!

[Loki Odinson]

I'm here, but still waiting on Sorn and Slee's introduction thing to finish...

[Mokley]

Somehow it never occurred to me that running an RP this way means that if someone stops posting the whole thing must necessarily grind to a halt, haha.

I've posted up what we had before Sisyphus' laptop went kablooey. :(

In the meantime, maybe let's move forward? We can retro the rest of Slee's story later. Loki, you good to go? ;)

[Loki Odinson]

@Mokley I was before, but not from now until about the 2nd of January. You can go onto someone else who's still in first then return to me. I apologise for the hold-up on my part ^-^"

[Mokley]

@Loki Odinson Ah right you did say that before! Have fun! :D

@Rekaigan Up for an intro adventure, chapter 2? In the thread, or a PM including @Sisyphus and myself!

[Loki Odinson]

@MokleyThank you! Although there's not much fun to be had when moving house, but the festivities before and after would make up for it lol
And before I forget, Merry Christmas to you _{(and anyone else who's reading this)}!

[Rekaigan]

@Mokley

I am up for that, however I have a Christmas party to attend to today. I don't mind it as 'In thread' or PM! (That's probably not helpful, sorry~)

[drewccapp]

I'm doing a bit of lurking for the holidays. :P I'm still here though. :)

[Mokley]

Ah HA you thought this was dead! We're still chuggin! :)

[Mokley]

@Loki Odinson@Daglobster@CollectorOfMyst@Diexsmiling@drewccapp@Eventua

Ok guys, the "one-at-a-time intro" experiment is completely dead in the water, haha. It was a crazy idea that has failed spectacularly.

So! I'm wondering who here is still interested in this RP -- and if there are at least a few, maybe we could figure out among us how to get all our characters in the same place at the same time, to start out with everyone together from the getgo.

We can still do the intro adventures, but this time we'll do all of them with everyone together.

Thoughts? :D

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Mokley I'm good to stick with things, but I'd need more detail on 'doing it all together'.

[Loki Odinson]

@Mokley Hmm...well, the only idea I have currently is the over-used idea of everyone being in the same island/place/town/etc and running into each other. I can see that logically happening but of course, the hard part is how to explain each character's presence there. This will, of course, be easier for some characters but maybe a bit harder for others.
Other than this, I can't really think of another plan for everyone starting together.
