[OOC] Fallout: The Post-Nuclear Role-playing Game

[von_das]

The S in SPECIAL is Strength, not Stamina. Since there's already Endurance.

40 points feels too low, compared to the games. Then again I guess none of us are supposed to be as badass individually. How do you plan to handle leveling up?

EDIT: Okay, sheet updated.

Sorry for being so demanding, but I would like to know how everything works in regards to what von_das and I specified for before setting my stats. I'd appreciate you getting back to us as soon as possible. :D

40 points is exactly how many you get in Fallout 3, unmodded.

Also, check out this program using excel. You can keep track of your SPECIAL and your skill points really easily, and it calculates starting skillpoints using your SPECIAL. The only problem is that it uses fallout 3 skills, so there are more skills than Zeb gave us, and survival isn't included.

oh whoops, I knew it was strength, but I guess I wasn't thinking when I made it Stamina haha lol I'll fix it.

oh, and Icicle, we might use that program. I'll change the skills to conform.

So Zeb, how's that system coming along? Made any progress worth noting?

I, personally, wouldn't mind if you kept us up to date on what it is you are working on for the roleplay and what you have left to do, at least in a general sense. We've been waiting on you for quite a few weeks and we still have no idea how it's coming along, if you've even made progress.

Well, progress is at a crawl, with real life being pretty busy and all. I'm gonna be out for about a week. I know, I shouldn't have started a tabletop game that requires a hefty system. But, if anyone wants to create their own system or to use a premade one, please by all means do so, it would help a lot not just for me but for everyone. I'm sorry I did it this way, maybe I shouldve just started this in the regular to sections, would've been a lot easier too. Sorry guys, I'll be back in about a week.

Oh and sorry for the double post, I'm on mobile right now, its pretty crappy lol

Hey Zeb,

I know you're busy, but if this roleplay hasn't started by September, I am not taking part in it.

I am wary of waiting for you to get this system of yours sorted out. If you are going to be the moderator of the roleplay and you are taking this much time to complete a single (albeit complicated) task, I am certain that joining this roleplay will be massively dissatisfying and, overall, a waste of time. You have quite aptly shown us your ineptitude for moderating a roleplay merely by the total negligence you show towards this thread. Additionally, you have never given us a remotely accurate estimate for your absences. For example, you said you would post again last week, and still haven't. Additionally, in a previous post, you told us you would edit information in the initial post on this thread, and it has not changed.

In summary, get a grip. Don't tell us you're "busy" if you will be fully incapable of contacting this website. Tell us that you will be incapable of contacting the website! It's not hard, just give it to us straight so we don't feel like we're waiting for Half Life 3 with each "I'll be back, and I'll fix this" post you give us. And if you're wrong about the length of one of your absences, take one to five minutes of your busy life to inform us about your "actual" absence.

This roleplay has a lot of potential, so please, at least communicate with us every now and then.

Alright Zeb, I think you have had plenty of time to pull your act together. I liked the idea, but, just like Zeb's attendance on this site, it murdered itself with time.

I hereby, officially rescind my participation in this roleplay.

As for the rest of you, do not bother contacting me for any reason regarding this roleplay thread or its OOC thread. If you would like to start a different roleplay separate from this one, feel free to contact me about it.
