Ooh. Well, if he didn't notice her, he didn't notice her. It just looks like she's not there at all. :P


Oh, right. Don't worry - our phantom lady is there. Just very unimportant to our pessimistic youth.

I have some obligations but I'll have a post for my character later on tonight/tomorrow morning.

Also what are all the character "names"? I notice we have 'The Pessimist' as one example? or is that a player choice thing?

That's a player choice thing.

If you wish to go nameless (for now; there's no risk/chance of having your name unrevealed throughout), an epithet of some kind would be useful as a narrative nickname, as it were.

Character pictures are also optional, though, if you do use one, I'd rather you use the one from the character tab. I kinda made the Cast thing to look like a board game like Cluedo (or Clue, as Americans call it), so it'd tickle my pickle to see the board game 'pieces' being used.

"As Americans call it."

I smell elitism! Well, not surprising from you Europeans.

Jokes aside, I'm trying to figure out a epithet that doesn't give away too much. Also when are we hooking up our game with a OOC chatzy or something? Assuming we all want that, of course. Love to get to know you folks more.

I'd quite like to keep natter to the OoC, if I'm honest. People checking in here regularly means if I leave a

GM ANNOUNCEMENT


people are more likely to spot it, and I don't want to have to tag everybody all the time. Apart from anything else, it's nice to have a bit of a record to be able to sift through for any kind of meta-discussion.

Speapking of the

GM ANNOUNCEMENT


While I can't call the ending yet, there is a reasonable chance this game is going to go, broadly speaking, where I think it's going to go. With that in mind, I have two things to say:
  • Focus on the journey. Enjoy developing your character and poking everybody else to see what's lurking underneath.
  • At some point in the game, I'm going to Update the character tag with a tag to say that it's End-Game. At that point, I will leave a path open to more or less end the game, which you may or may not take. I will not flag when End-Game is apart from in by the flag in the Character Tab, so there's almost an element of first-come-first-served. I will revise this later, but I want you all to have this kind of concept in mind. I'm really high right now, so I may revise this but I have big things in store for this.


I'm really high right now so I might be saying more than I should.

If everybody is desperate for a Chatzy, we can have one. I would just prefer to stick with OoC for the above reasons.

More GM Stuff! Exciting News!

This is an odd one to call, because it's a very strange topic. But I ask a lot of you guys, so I assume you love it really.

In this game, at least one character (beyond Mr. Jig) will die. They just will. It's there in the OP, so you either know, or should know. If the plot kills you, I get that it's a bit of a dick thing to happen to you, so, based on that, a couple of thoughts:
  • If the plot kills you, would you like to be involved in your own death (ie: be able to narrate it and be involved in the post in which it happens) or not?
  • If any of you starts to feel like you're treading water or your heart just isn't in it any more, maybe... consider volunteering to be killed? It's a strange thing to ask, but it means I can guide you toward a death of your choosing with your help and you get the lovely fuzzy feeling of having participated in a game for exactly as long as you wanted to.

Yes and yes. That is, if I ever get sick of the game, which I highly doubt

As long as a death has weight I am glad to take one for the team. I've run half-a-dozen horror games in the last decade so I fully understand the importance of character death.

Ah, before I post, I should mention that my character is a B-roll movie star so some, but definitely not all, may recognize her name and face as the young lady in the character tabs. Please PM me if you would like your character to know her if they're really into watching films and whatnot. When I post, I won't use her name vuv not until or unless someone brings it up in the IC.

My character also has some renown being in national newspapers once or twice. But the normal person might've forgotten where they know his name or face from so yeah. Up to you guys.

Also along these lines, my character (the purple fellow, I haven't put the image in my post yet) might be known to characters who frequent nightclubs and theaters. Also shoot me a pm if any of you folks think they might know him.
