[OOC] No Hope

[TomeBinder]

Alright then, #1 it is. Though #2 was a revamped version of a character I recently made for another Zombie RP, anyway. I'll probably bring her in if #1 gets killed off, which he probably will at some point. Not necessarily from the shamblers.

Also, put me in for Group 2 for now.

@HHShetland

Tobias Tariq Saleh is accepted. Armed to the teeth, just as promised. Good, this is good. A mad man with weapons is what everyone needs!

Wait for me to gauge who's going where, because I'll have to send the groups off in different directions, to avoid a break in the space-time continuum.

@TomeBinder

Fair enough; I wasn't planning on introducing Tobias until after the others had gotten away from the Gym, anyway.

[Darcs]

I could prolly do group 1

[Demonx]

Group 1.

Also, Holy shit Tome, your post was BRUTAL. I'm gunna have to watch myself around you aren't I? I love it.

@Demonx

There is no mercy. There is no hope.

There is only death.

MUAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

But in all seriousness, Ali was dropped, and I haven't heard a peep from User. This is good, it shows you guys I'm not messing around - a "practice phase" if you will.

Watch yourself as you go through that school. Be sure to keep your eyes peeled, because as soon as you go through a door without bothering to see what's on the other side, is when someone gets nom nom'd. That's about the only advice I'm going to give ;)

[DJAtomika]

Group #1.

Also, brutal post? What is -

...oh.

[HHShetland]

Well, now everyone except Whiteprophet's characters are either dead or in Group 1. Looks like it'll be back to lurking for me! :V

@HHShetland

Nyope. Its late for me, but we had another player who could only post once a week. I'll chase them up tomorrow.

Even if that ends up being a no-go, I can send your character off alone. I don't mind putting in the work on your behalf. Others may then join at a later date, who share similar time restraints, and relieve you of your loneliness. Indeed, I could even conjour an NPC to keep you company, and place them under my control.

I'm the GM, and my powers are vast ;)

[HHShetland]

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to have to pass. Just keep them off the radar, please.

Besides, now my mind has changed its mind again. I think just the idea of having a time limit on posting, no matter how long, doesn't fly well with my subconscious. It's frustrating because I really like the concept of this RP, I just don't think I'd adapt or play well at all. >:(

[whiteprophet]

Group 1, normally. Please don't kill me if I don't post within 24 hours though ;)

@HHShetland

That is a shame, and i'm sorry that I couldn't help.

Unfortunately, if half the group posted frequently, and the other half whenever they felt like it, things would implode pretty quickly. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.

I'll place your character in a zombie-free stasis, in case you change your mind.

Keep it real bud, you'll always be welcome.

@whiteprophet

48 hours afk protection, my good sir. I won't be draconian about it, but if a player doesn't post within that period, and is holding the group up then... well. You know what happens.

If you'll be away at any point for longer than that, then just say so. I'll look after the characters.

Yes, I know what you mean. Your actions are greatly appreciated.

I like it. It adds a sense of dread and urgency that other games like this have failed to establish in the past.

@TomeBinder

I'm kind of interested but I don't know, I'm holding of committing until I can be sure I'll stick around. I really like that you seem like a good GM. My concerns are that I am playing another zombiepocalypse soon and I don't know if I will sustain interest in this too, plus I know I don't usually post within 48 hours being the slacker I am. So I lurk. :D I'm subscribed to this though so I'll let you know when I'm sure of joining.

@Fillet

Thanks for the compliment, it means a lot! :)

Well, we'll be going for a while yet I think. Hopefully the characters don't make a major screw up in the next few posts and all die horribly.

Take your time. I have great respect for someone who first checks whether or not they can take an rp on. Too many don't do that, and the results are always bad for the Rp's health.

Good man, I'll see you around.

[DJAtomika]

I shall post when our friend @Demonx makes another post for Alex. Wouldn't be fair to auto-RP his character.

[Demonx]

I'm not sure where to end my post. I don't know if the GM wants to throw in an event before we escape.

There ya go ;)

But in future, you do not have to wait for me. I will jump in when I want/need to. Just remember you guys originally wanted to get to the Easton Safe zone, but if you do start to stray from the plot - then fear not, I'll soon get you redirected.

EDIT: Not to say you can't chill in the school for a while, or hatch your own plans of how to get there - or even have a change of heart. However, until your group consciously changes their plans, I will move them on in that direction if I feel the RP is starting to stall.
