[OOC] Apocalyptica

[Zombiedude101]

By the way, check the beginning of the post after the RP, added a little something.

Remmy's up.

[Zombiedude101]

Looks pretty good, and I was thinking of posting up that other piece of writing regarding a certain character residing in Washington State some time soon. Got any suggestions for on the doc?

I'm sorry, but I don't think at this time I can give this RP the attention it deserves with all the things I have going on irl. I apologize for any inconveniences this causes.

No problem, just give us a heads-up when you want to get involved again and we'll be glad to have you back. Good luck with whatever it is you're dealing with ATM.

Sorry for the lengthy absence, getting time going to a wifi spot is murder, and I'm still around. Though it's not as much as I use to be. I'm hoping this will last only another two weeks. -_-

[Zombiedude101]

No worries. Chances are things'll be slow anyways whilst people push through the last of their education for the summer and so.

It's looking like this is dying. Too many people just vanished. I'd be more than willing to pick this back up when the others come back.

Hey Guys,

This is Shon. I haven't popped in or been watching much, but I wanted to see how things were going so I went and give an idea of what I'm doing now. First, FireCracker, doesn't leaving yourself add to the problem? If you want Apocalyptica to get back into its bulky self you need to contribute and help build it up, not use its suffering as a reason to leave. That just puts another nail in the coffin.

Anyway, shortly after I left I received a couple projects. I am doing some work as a Concept Artist for a science fiction web series that, due to a confidentiality agreement, I cannot name. When it posts the first episodes I'll give you a heads up though. Meanwhile, you all probably know I work part-time for a college. I recently got a second part-time job as a Public Relations Consultant and Gallery Manager in one of the first and largest marijuana retailers set to open in Vancouver, Washington. I'm among the upper management, sitting with the owners and investors who I should note have more wealth than I've ever seen in my life, and we're really doing something interesting. I have been setting up and participating in interviews with local press, NPR, and the Wall Street Journal. I've also connected to thirteen skilled artists in my area who are showing for our opening, or will soon after. Anyway, I've been working these crazy hours as we prepare the store and launch ourselves into the limelight. It's busy, it's new, but it's crazy fun. The company is called New Vansterdam, you're welcome to check it out on Facebook (our website is under construction). I've always wanted to run a gallery and this opportunity came as a surprise for me. I'll be sure to post links to photos of the opening if y'all are interested.

Apocalyptica Related: I see the activity hasn't change much. Well, if this isn't meant for RPG I would ask that those of y'all still interested compile what we have and contact me. Prometheus had an idea last year to shift this into a linear story and I think he had a good point. In my work I've met a few successful fine artists and comic book artists (my jealousy is with them), and would love to tempt them with a polished story like this. Between a few of us we could turn this back and forth RP into an understandable prose, co-authored prose. From there, the possibilities are really interesting. Just let me know!

I'll try to pop on in a few weeks. Be well all of you and don't forget, you're welcome to email me!

[Firecracker_]

No no no, Shon, you got it all wrong, I'm not leaving, just most, if not, all the people I was collaborating with have vanished, so I really don't know where to go or what to do from here, but if everyone has to take a break from Apocalyptica and come back at a later date, I'd be willing to come back. Turning Apocolyptica into a linear story does sound like it would be fun, and I've been writing a lot lately, so I could get behind that.

[Zombiedude101]

I'm sorry, Shon - I've been trying to work on something in the doc at the same time as focusing on other RP projects and up until last week, I was focusing on my college work though I've got no excuse now that I've finished until September. At any rate, I'm fine with either continuing Apocalyptica as an RP or even trying to convert its rich storyline into a comic series. I'd definitely place myself behind it if that's the direction you want to take it and it's a pretty interesting suggestion you have there, but as I've said I'm still willing to give it another push if you intend to focus on Apocalyptica as an RP.

[ApocalypticaGM]

It's not my decision. Just an idea. Shoot me an email if it's something you'd like to do and just let me know who all wants in. We should communicate about it via email rather than here.

[Fallenreaper]

I'll try to get Abbie back into the fold in a day or so. However, I'm currently waiting with Remmy I think or at least some one else to post.

[Free Faller]

Hey friends! I'm kinda sorta back. Sorry for the long absence but some horrible stuff happened in my unit and it took awhile to get everyone at least decently alright again... and then last week I moved to a new station. Haven't found a place to live yet, so no real Internet until then.

I don't know if I'll be able to post yet, but I'd at least like to talk to you guys about maybe concocting a way to get Cass towards actual people -seeing as Shon is absent- that would make sense and keep to Cass style... It's lonely on the opposite side of the country from everyone else.

[Firecracker_]

Good to hear from you Free Faller! Did you read about making Apocalyptica a linear story?

[Free Faller]

Yup, I did and I'm totally down for pitching in if we're going to go through with it. Sounds like it could be pretty freaking cool.

In which case you'll need to email Shon, since he isn't on RPG anymore.
