[OOC] The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

[Pachamac]

How screwed am I?



My poor, poor sanity...

Gonna go catch up on people's posting. c: Looking forward to it!

Good luck with enrollment and have fun at the beach, Michi! Stay away from nasty krakens destroying your sand castles! >8D

Kathi what game is that? Are you now a pop diva? :0

[Crescendo]

It's the iPhone Love Live: School Idol game. And heck yeah I'm an idol now while you guys escape from creepies mauhauhau.

[Rexcalibur]

Kathi is singing us to our deaths u___u

I loved everyone's posts omg <33 I'm so glad we kicked off with a good start! I'm actually not going to work for another couple of hours, so I'll go ahead and work on a post now. :)

EDIT: Okay, my post is up! ^^ Hope that leaves enough for more reactions/responses that are above bare-bone haha... I'm trying not to jump too far ahead and give too much info to digest this early in the chapter. Pacing is always my concern, whether it's my own writing or someone else's/a group's, so I hope I'm doing well on that note at least ^^;

[Fox of Spades]

Ooh, Fez looks pretty! ;A; All of you are so lucky.

Rex and I are just going to die in a corner now, or rebel against fate and try to live. Definitely gonna stay away from Krakens ^w^ and if no one minds, I'm going to get to work on a post. I'll skip tomorrow, but will be back on the 14th *salutes*

I hope you're all having a swell day <3

Edit: Posted :D

Humanities II is, contrary to its name, not about humans.

It's about art.

Okay you guys might have known that but I'm a dumdum and I didn't and now I'm staring in disbelief at my syllabus which includes Picasso's works. Also a video of the evolution of Western art.

*dies*

I'm writing my post now~

[Bunanigans]

*patiently waits for Kei to get her post up*

Yeah, whenever I studied humanities it was generally history, geography and religious education. Never... art, lmao. Humanities as a term is too vague people need to stop using it.

If you ever need any help with it you can always ask. Not guarenteeing I'll be much use since I always sucked at art history, but I'll try. Better still though, can you swap it?

[Orpheus]

Posted, sorry for the wait!

OTL Nope, too late for swapping. Thanks for the offer >8DDD

[Pachamac]

Posteddddd~ Holy exposition, Batman!

That sucks to hear about your humanities course, Kei! D: To be honest I don't have a clue about what Humanities is supposed to entail either, so... easy enough mistake :P Hopefully you find the course interesting and fun in some respect, though! :)

Good luck with travelling to the dorm, Fox! Four hour journey is loooong D8 Lovely piece of music too. :)

Hehe and good luck to you and Rex in trying to survive too >8D

Good luck with work, Buns!

[Crescendo]

Awww Lulu *huggles* You can do itttt <33

I gon write a post now yey

[Rexcalibur]

lol I always end up signing up for courses that aren't what I'd expected them to be. Sucks, eh :[

I'll be posting in a couple of hours or so :)

[Bunanigans]

Damn I knew I should have called / put a friendly reminder that my posting window on a Wednesday morning is 8-9am BST (Midnight-1am PDT, 3-4pm PHT). Although looking at it it looks like Rex called around the same time I started writing, so I think this time it probably wouldn't have been helped anyway.

I can't post this round then. Sorry guys.

[Rexcalibur]

Sorry about that, Buns!! It doesn't look like most people are posting this round anyway, so you're fine, please don't worry about it, and I apologize for inconveniencing you. ><

EDIT: Okay so I'm not gonna hide that I completely crashed again mid-post. I keep trying to come up with ways to make me able to post at night in general without crashing or holding people up, but 80% of the time I post after 8pm, I crash. Last time I flaked because my bro needed my help with administering fluids to Riley, which we take turns doing at 9pm and it takes an hour to do. I tend to sleep between 10-11pm most days. I won't go into further specifics for stuff because I don't want to ladle this with excuses ><

Anyway, the point I wanted to make is that I should probably start skipping posts altogether if I can't make it before 8pm PST. I keep trying to make methods and promises etc. so I could still guarantee a post when I say I'm posting, but it almost never works and I end up cruising into 2-3 people's posting schedules because of it, like today. :/ I really hate leaving you guys in funny positions like this and am so upset at myself with being so flaky when it comes to nighttime posting. I know this RP is supposed to be daily but... I can't keep up like this, especially for co-gming when I'm supposed to control the pacing ><. Unless of course, Pacman (and everyone else), there's something else you think I should go by. Whatever everyone else feels is best/most reliable/most convenient.

I've also finished my post, but considering the number of people not posting this round for various reasons, and considering what has happened in my post (i.e. getting started on mission details), I've talked to Pacman a bit this morning and he recommended PMing him before moving on. I'm mostly concerned on what to do when it comes to skipping a round to allow for everyone missing to catch up to it, or to keep tomorrow's round's post short, or what... idk haha. Hopefully I get the hang of these co-gming decisions super soon. >< i would never survive as a proper gm

:( Sorry again about all of this.

[Bunanigans]

*is on my phone at work*

I think the one who shouldn't be worrying is you Rex lmao. I know my posting window on a Wednesday morning is tiny, so I'm not too bothered if someone calls during it. I just said what I did here to remind everyone I guess.

Anyway you've always had trouble posting 7 days a week, so I wouldn't worry about that either. I'm sure Pach can push things forward for a round if he has to, and similarly I could with my villain if you give me a quick summary of what you want when we get to that point. I think the biggest thing is keeping everyone up to date when you have to skip (which you do anyway) and most importantly not making yourself ill forcing yourself to not sleep just to post.

[Pachamac]

Your post is perfect, Rex, don't sweat about that. And don't sweat about anything in general so far o.o Seriously, lol, there's no need for it. RP's meant to be fun, not stressful, and this is your chapter and in charge, so don't worry about that or pacing or anything. Like before I only hope for and expect a minimum of 5 posts a week, and if something should happen when you can't post then that's fine too. Forcing yourself to stay awake or waking up in the middle of the night to write a post is ridiculous, unless you're Kathi who's absolutely ridiculous about those kinds of things. This is a co-gm chapter which means we're doing it together, and I can push on for you if you're unable. It's totally not a problem. Might be in a couple of weeks though when we're on holiday and travelling about Europe lololol, but that's okay because we're on holiday.

I don't actually expect Buns to post between Tuesday and Wednesday because of her schedule. That's such an incredibly small window that it's kind of pointless to try and endeavour to always post in it or encourage other people not to post during then. I'm okay with that being missed as well.

Anyway, other then those worries aside, how is everyone? Work today was absolutely hilarious with how poorly it went. Rest of the week's going to be even better. c| I can't wait!

Good luck with your trip to your dorm and enrollment, Fox! And good luck with your hectic school day Kei, and with all the busy busyness of your errands and packing etc Rex! I hope you all have an awesome day! ^o^

"Forcing yourself to stay awake or waking up in the middle of the night to write a post is ridiculous, unless you're Kathi who's absolutely ridiculous about those kinds of things."

There is no need to be a butt shush you

And no worries, Rex! Don't stress too much, this RP should bring you joy and happiness (unless of course Pach and Michi do something those evil buggers) c: Make sure you rest well too! Don't be like me yea :'D

Also since it's only been two posts since my last post I don't have much to react to so I'll prob skip. Sorry u nu

[Fox of Spades]

Best of luck with everything, Rex :c! Things sound really hectic *hugs all around* but like the others said, don't sweat it. (^w^) Your chapter looks really great so far and we don't want you to get sick because of posting or anything D: that'd just be awful. Plus you have Pach ^^

Thanks Pach, haha, the lines were massive. People basically dragged chairs along xD but whooo, it's over. There were some problems with the system though so we had to redo our schedules. Blehhh, early morning classes.

I'll have a post up in the afternoon ^^

[Rexcalibur]

Thanks for the kind words, everyone ;~;)b I really appreciate them <3 Also Fox, glad to hear you got through the lines okay, even if schedule redoes suck big time :[ I sincerely hope I never have to go through that for my own classes... urh

I'll be skipping this round to allow everyone else to catch up hahaha. Plus Pacman carried on my setup nicely so ^^

[Fox of Spades]

Best of luck with your classes ^^ and haha nice pizza gif!

Edit: Ohhhh, it's a rotating gif set. I thought you changed it all the time xD

If no one minds, I'll call the next post.

[Orpheus]

Not really sure what's happening but I'm catching up no worries

Guys if I don't respond to a certain event IC/OOC properly today (and probably every Thursday from now on), just pm me on Skype. I don't guarantee I'll give a proper reply (if I don't reply within 30 minutes that means I'm out cold) but I'll try my best. Sorry. It's just that SelfDef (which was my class starting from 7 am to 9 am this morning) was a lot more intense that I'm willing to admit and I'm still feeling the whiplash and the nausea from excessive... exercise. Yeah.

Posted!

[Pachamac]

Holas everyone! How are you all? 8D I hope you're all having a fantastically fabulous and wonderiffic mornight! ^^ I'm loving the chapter so far! Some really good questions here, hehehe. >8D I'm looking forward to seeing Lady answer them all and how we progress from here. I'm having way too much fun already, omg.

I got my keyboard fixed too hallelujah! 8D <3

Congrats on your enrollment Fox, even if the schedules were all screwed up to begin with. Is this something that happens a lot at college or something...? >.>;

Kathi said And no worries, Rex! Don't stress too much, this RP should bring you joy and happiness (unless of course Pach and Michi do something those evil buggers) c:

You guys should just start embracing our evil and find joy and happiness from that. It'll be quicker and less painful that way! >8D
