[OOC] Stars Without Number RP

[Angstrom]

I'm actually really happy with the name Nightingale, I like that a lot. Can't wait to get started! When it comes to decisions like this first one, should we decide in OOC or IC?

[AdvancedJ3lly]

I would like it to stay IC, but if you want to decide OOC that's fine, as long as you don't metagame it a bunch. Do whatever your character would want to do.

I'm not sure what to expect with the format of this game, having never done table-top games via post-by-post. It translates very differently to normal RPing which is to a large extent collaborative creative writing. I'm sure we'll get stuck into some of that here, but as there are heavy game elements, when it comes to decisions like this which require us to converse, I would imagine it will result in lots of very short posts as we talk. Is that ok? Also, are we waiting for anything before we start or am I ok to make a first post? :)

[AdvancedJ3lly]

It should be pretty much the same as most other RPs, the difference being that you don't decide if a bullet connects or the ship malfunctions, dice do. Anyway, feel free to post. You basically have free reign of a TL 4 city right now.

I just got back from uni to find that the post I typed up yesterday was still sat in the reply box, having not actually been submitted, sorry XD

I just posted it :)

[Angstrom]

J3lly, did you look up what day Feb 1st 3200 would be? Because it's a Tuesday XD

[AdvancedJ3lly]

I did. Too lazy to calculate that myself :P

Also, if you guys ever have questions about anything, like if something can be purchased, can you do this, etc. Don't hesitate to ask.

*Cough*

I mean, sorry for not posting yet. Ended up going to sleep early last night to catch up on some sleep.

I'll work on something now... Probably nothing super interesting, but ye.

[Angstrom]

Liking your post Raddum :) I'm new to RPing, is the status you posted at the end of your post a common practice? I read a couple of RPs before I started to get a grasp of how they were played and I never saw one of those statuses.

[Todd Howard]

Nah, just something I figured I'd add so I don't have to edit my CS whenever something happens. I figured even if Clyde was fine, I'd add it now to make it not suddenly appear later. It'll later on also include my credits and general inventory; as well as obtained/lost items on my current round/post. Maybe other things if I think of them, like, eh... Unspent skill points.

[AdvancedJ3lly]

That is a pretty good idea. Now, we wait for Venom to post.

[Angstrom]

Yeah, I might start using them if I hit a post where I have a change of inventory or health or something, could be quite handy :)

Heh, thanks.... >w>

I'm sure Venom will get a post out within' too long. Time to hop into the waiting game circle for now, though.

[Todd Howard]

Venom's about to march off to work, and will post in the IC tonight.

He wanted me to let you know. So, yeah. :p

[AdvancedJ3lly]

Alright.

[Todd Howard]

Alright, uh, so...

I'm going to be gone until Tuesday night, starting on Saturday morning. Plans with a friend, you see. Hopefully that's understandable. >_<

I should be able to post tomorrow, but after that you'll have to suffer without me for a few days. Sorry. :S

[AdvancedJ3lly]

That should be fine.

[Venom]

Ill have a post up within 12 hours
Life gave me lemons

[AdvancedJ3lly]

That's fine. Life takes precedence over this.

[Venom]

short and sweet any issue and I will make adjustments when I can. Im writing a paper on a bus atm, but I wanted to make sure I didn't hold you guys up any further
