I would, but Terra's supposed to do her's later?

I'd be willing to go first so I can get intro'd into things, but I'm still not very caught up on what's going on IC, where everything is, etc. Could use a brief summary of things, if anyone is willing to oblige. And like Lalli said, these don't seem like they need to happen all at once. You can always stop by the pad and reply to whoever is waiting on you, and then just post it when it's ready. I've used these a lot in the past, and they're great for having conversations and shorter back and forths without spamming the IC.

> You don't need to be online at strictly the same time per se. Even when you're not, it still saves space, because in a real life conversation, you'd be going back and forth a few sentences at a time. Using Piratepad, you can do that without spamming the IC with a chain of a dozen short posts. > > About the CSs, i'm gonna put a list of characters under that tab, but i've decided that i'll link to the characters' wiki pages if they have any, rather than to their CS. So there's no need for you to repost. point one: true, it would indeed be quicker as you dont have to post in long lines in one go point two: still feel I might need a canon-1 type of the CS so I have one to change based on the story and one which will at all times remain the basic, fitted into all other canons or saved for possible restarts or something ------------ @imp: no comment on the issue with Volray and Alexis based on the physical examination need? @Dago: when would the needed pirate pad be up and would my turn be? though at the moment I can onlt work with Isaac for sure

Non-crewmembers are not obligated to get a an examination but if they wish to remain on the ship then they will have to. Our ship has just finished engaging an enemy ship that was attacking the planet (orbital bombardment and sending down ground forces) and the enemy was forced to retreat thanks to our efforts. However, there are some injured people and some people might not have gotten onto the ship in time because it was blocked off by the enemy. The ship is landing to pick up the stragglers and do medical checks on everyone. Your character could have been left on the ground during this time if she will enter at the end of this episode 1, or if we go into episode 2 she could be among the people we recruit to make up for casualties.

Will anything change except the history? If no, there's no need to make an entire separate page. You can use the same piratepad we use for the voting, since the page can be indefinitely expanded. You don't really need to wait for your turn either, Globster can work on multiple sections intermittently if he likes.

Okay, cool. I think it might be better to wait into episode 2 to bring Astraia in, I'd prefer her to be new to the crew rather than just absent the whole first episode. We'll have her get recruited or assigned to the ship to make up for some of the losses, then.

It might be time that everyone posts their conclusion for this episode and then I'll start the new episode. I'll probably need to get two posts out, the first to reply to some people and then after everyone has posted their conclusion.

So Alexis as he knows he needs to keep moving and not stay in one place or on one planet or risk being found by his people. and Volray as he wants a ride to his own planet, but he would feel bad to take advantage of this and would help the crew, causing his position to be a field commander to be used for him, he wont know what he will do when he reaches his home world so he will state its temporal (though its permanent) > > point two: still feel I might need a canon-1 type of the CS so I have one to change based on the story and one which will at all times remain the basic, fitted into all other canons or saved for possible restarts or something > > > @Dago: when would the needed pirate pad be up and would my turn be? > > Will anything change except the history?

You don't really need to wait for your turn either, Globster can work on multiple sections intermittently if he likes. I dont know to what extend, well volray his spikes got a new color tip due to the shock of losing his entire crew, alexis status might change as well equipment and training its all pretty small stuff I agree though makes me wonder what to do with the user list of Katirana as in time more info might become listed about Alexis as user... but would that not clutter up on matters that are best to be kept ordered, I mean using one pad for interactions between everyone at the same time while also having that same pad for the voting or am i missing some function or something?

Yeah, I'll be ready to start collaborating in a few hours. Lall, if you could send me the link to that piratepad via PM, it'd help greatly.

> he will state its temporal Temporary, Drake. Volray isn't The Doctor. I guess you have a point regarding the wiki pages. As far as i'm concerned, you can just make whatever changes to the page and have a blank back-up yourself, but if you want we can put the blank on the site as well. Just don't do that thing people do on wikis where they document absolutely everything for no reason. But go ask Nobody's opinion about it too. By lack of a better place, i think i'll just put the link to the Piratepad next to the character list i just made, the one easily-accessible post that can be edited. That also makes the need to compact it into one page unnecessary, so i'll make two. Edit: done, check the Characters tab.

Okay, who wants to be medically examined first?

> Okay, who wants to be medically examined first? It would probably be the nurse so then she can get to business afterwards helping you. If she doesn't want too though I could always volunteer. EDIT: YES! Finally fixed the weird problem on the Andorr page where it's always in italics! It turns out that you have to only highlight the words in italics to be able to undue them. I was trying to change the entire paragraph to normal but there were a couple words already normal that stopped me. Don't know how some of the paragraph turned italics in the first place but at least that's settled. I can go to bed at peace.

Well, I'm confused. Thought I wasn't going to be showing up until whenever episode 2 started. Unless that's now. In which case, sure, I can go first. Going to bed now, but I'll try and check in periodically tomorrow if we want to work on that.

I think he's working on the thing in the pad to be posted in one go once the episode starts.

Yeah. Lumin's the nurse? Alright, I'll wait on her. Whenever you're ready, just PM me, and we can start. I'll send you the link. I probably won't be available between 2-9 PM tomorrow, though.

You should probably state yer timezone, Globster. Otherwise we have little reference for when those hours are. Edit: Oh and, to end any further confusion. Drake and i are gonna make a collaborative post to tie up the interaction between Alexis and Gunnos. After that, i believe (correct me if i'm wrong) that all further interactions are sufficiently tied up to advance to episode 2, which Nobody will do through an IC post of his own.

Erm, sorry. I'm in EST. Good old 'Murica time.

Seeing how volray and alexis will stay on the ship I have three chars to make an examination thing about. When do you wish to start this? Lalli you have forgotten the reaper in the char list XD

I didn't forget, i intentionally left him out because he's only appeared once and shows no immediate signs of appearing again. Besides, let him keep some mystery before you show off his CS to everyone.

My next post will start episode 2. You guys can post if need be or nothing at all.
