[OOC] The Blackwood

[Luminosity]

I'm still here! Unless I'm blind and somehow missed it I think I am waiting on a post.

[POOHEAD189]

That's 4! I just want to update people who I know are still here :)

[Romero]

@POOHEAD189 Cillian is still present, and thirsty for adventure!

[POOHEAD189]

Sorry Fetzen, short post for you!

@POOHEAD189

I count five, not four.

[POOHEAD189]

How's everyone's 2021?

[Gunther]

Not much different than 2020 thus far.

@Gunther

Is that a good thing for you? Or do you mean in general.

@POOHEAD189

In General. I live in Massachusetts. Every other state in the nation is taboo. If you leave the state and come back home you must self quarantine for 14 days. This state is too much.

@Gunther Well, living in Alabama we're sort of run down and in the slog as usual.

[Gunther]

Alabama!? I thought you were in Tennessee. Boy, I got that wrong. When I lived in Columbus/Ft. Benning, GA, I used to cross the Chattahoochee on occasion to Phenix City and other points of note. I recall going to Talladega to watch a NASCAR race once. One time, I had the opportunity to experience a STABO extraction/insertion. We wore a five point harness with a D-Ring on each shoulder. Four 100-foot lengths of ropes dropped from a UH-60 hovering overhead. The rope had a Y end with snap-links attached to our D Rings and then a safety line went through each of our harnesses, se we were all tied together. That way, if one person's rope broke, the other three would hold that person in place. We started on the Alabama side of the river, took off, flew around the Chattahoochee River, southern Ft. Benning and then back to where we started. It was pretty awesome. I can honestly say, I have flown several hundred feet in the air while not being inside an aircraft. :)

Hello friends. I regret to say that I think it's time the roleplay draws to a close. Mostly because I've not felt extremely creative after my grandpa's passing and also I think the roleplay has slowed down enough to where it seems stagnant. I apologize if this is a big let down, because it was an awesome 6 months GMing for you guys! I think next time I make a large roleplay, I'll include everyone together to make things happen quicker.

Thanks, and I hope everyone has a lovely Valentine's Day!

Stay tuned though, because after a short rest I'll probably be up to making another RP or open my 1x1 thread up again. Thanks!

Sorry to see that this is coming to an end. I really enjoyed my stint as Cillian (and the gradual pace worked nicely for how much free time I have had recently), but you've got to look after yourself first, and if the spark isn't there, then the spark isn't there. Best wishes, and give yourself plenty of time to grieve, but I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your next project.

[Fetzen]

As much as I outright hate putting another character of mine into mothballs, I can completely understand your decision @POOHEAD189. If things don't go well they don't go well and if there's not enough creativity then there's no fuel for a roleplay. I am looking forward to what you'll come up next, my friend!

[Gunther]

I'm looking for a Ukrainian Mechanized Infantry Battalion Commander if anyone is interested.
Flames on the Dnieper is more a wargame than a roleplay, but it is a mix of the both.

[POOHEAD189]

@Fetzen Rest assured as soon as I make another RP, you'll be invited. Most of you will know, likely.

Meanwhile, see about joining @Gunther RP! I wish I had the time for it.

[Gunther]

I only need one person and can help create a battalion of BMP infantry.

This is a shame, but take care of you <3
