[OOC] Easy Money [Heist RP]

[FortunesFaded]

Hey everyone! Good to see that this OOC has been bustling.

I'm back for the week, and look forward to reading all of the IC posts!

Edit: Also, put up Juan's relationships section!

[Rare]

Well, I am back for my Spring Break. Which means that I have school.

I will make my first post by tomorrow, maybe.

[LPFan]

Finally made up my opening post. I also took the liberty of naming the place in which Mike is supposed to meet with Angelo and Charlotte.

[The Scotsman]

Dammit, I just realised that I switched from first-person to third-person half way through my post. Shit sticks, better change that.

[The Scotsman]

Also, nice post LPFan.

I fixed my post so that it is all first person now, but it's pretty disjointed between past and present tense so bare with me as I iron out those wrinkles I the next few posts. It's just writing adjustments is all.

[FortunesFaded]

Hey everyone! I'm loving the posts so far. I'm hoping to get another one up for Juan by tomorrow.

In other news: Since my schedule can be a bit spotty, I wanted to make sure there would always be someone around to keep the RP on track and keep OOC civil (not that I'm really worried, you guys are a friendly bunch). Therefore, I've made shivershiver Co-GM.

[Inertia]

Gratz Shiver!
Just like the RP, close friends?

I appreciate the compliment!

[The Scotsman]

Are we just waiting on a couple more people now?

[Kimiyosis]

I'm waiting for...I think only Rare has to post(?), before I post.
We're doing a traditional bank robbery, right?

@Kimiyosis

Right and right! Rare is the only player who has yet to post, he mentioned returning to school so that might be the reason for his inactivity. As a student, I know it takes a little while to get back into the swing of things right after a long break. Oh, the pain.

The robbery itself we haven't really touched on, but I believe its just a regular bank robbery, John Dillinger-esque. I think we should start out with them arriving at the bank, scouting everything out, getting information, then time-skipping a few days (so the guards won't recognize them) and robbing the joint. If anyone has any more suggestions or ideas on the pacing, feel free to shout them out!

Well, I am a he not a she...

So, I will have my post up soon.

@Rare

Agh, I remember making a mental note before posting to say they or s/he, but I was in a rush to get to class. Sorry!

[FortunesFaded]

Wonderful!

To everyone else: feel free to post before everyone else has gone, we don't really need to have all eight of us post, then all eight of us post again in order. A good rule of thumb is after two posts by other people, you're free to post again.

I'll be getting a Juan post up tonight.

Also, yes: bank job. I'm gonna try to figure it out so that all of the characters are able to use their skill sets for this one, since it's the first. I'm thinking James will hack into bank security, Juan and Charlotte will acquire security badges/infiltrate the bank, and obviously Jim and Mike will be doing the robbing while Werner and Angelo drive the crew out of there. Alex will be briefing them on the mission, and work clean-up afterwards. Those are my thoughts for this one, but if anyone has any suggestions -- or, Kimiyosis, if you have a different idea for a first heist -- suggest away.

@FortunesFaded

No, no, I think the bank job is a perfect idea.
IC wise, it'll be along the lines of "Alright, so now that we've arrived in Chicago, we will need some cash to settle down and set up, along with various equipment that would need to be bought through certain places. You can't exactly smuggled military grade weaponry and the like into the country. Every plan, has its steps. This, is the first of them."

[Rare]

Finally posted.

If it has any spelling and/or grammar errors (that are really bad), tell me. I rushed the post as I had to eat my dinner.

@Rare

It's cool. I liked the post! I'm looking forward to the whole group meeting up.

[Jangel13]

So should I say in driving the others to the place where we are supposed to meet?

[Kimiyosis]

Might as well, Alex won't contact through the already placed phone and remotely connected projector until you're all there :3

[LPFan]

It looks like Charlotte and Angelo finally arrived at the rendes-vouz point. I'll write another post as soon as I can.

[FortunesFaded]

I was thinking, after the bank heist, perhaps we could start running multiple heists at once from time to time? I.e. smaller jobs, smaller teams. I did that sort of thing in a special forces RP I ran a couple years back, it let characters interact with others a lot better, since they were in a smaller group. It'd be something like: Werner, Juan, and James rob a tech firm, while Mike, Jim, Charlotte and Angelo take on an armored car. Obviously not every time -- I'm interested to see the dynamic that develops from the bank heist, with all members aboard -- but maybe once in a while to shake things up. What do you guys think?
