[OOC] Wink Murder

Highly recommend the mood music lurking in the OP. :)

@Jig I put it on loop when I wrote the CS and my first post.

The song from 2009? Yeah, it's a bit swanky.

@AuntFlavia - Yeah, Carnivàle was great. But I love period pieces in general so I'm most certainly the target audience. Haha.

Saw them live in April, and it's the second-best gig I've ever been to.

@Gowi

I'm not the only one! Probably one of the best opening credits I've ever seen really. Sets the tone/setting perfectly.

[Wade Wilson]

Why is everyone following my example? It makes me uneasy XD

[Gowi]

Because it was the right way to do it!

[Jig]

Just a reminder; if you end up/fancy getting drawn into a long conversation with another character, feel free to use a collab. You can always get much more done (and better) in a collab than you can in a series of posts. :3

If you ever get lost/unsure of what to do/feel you've done everything you have to do for a given section, just holler at me, and I'll help you out (because I'm good like that ^^).

Sooner or later I'll make a floor plan of the theatre, at which point you'll have almost unfettered access. When it comes, I'll give you some more information about exploration.

If anybody is planning on being a White Knight, please let yourselves be known in the OoC. :3

Eh. I guess Mr. Pessimist'll be a gentleman and do as the kind gal asks.

I like how we all have colors to our characters. That being said, it feels weird for me to use green. Usually I'm all about moody colors, like dark blue or purple, stuff like that, and when I'm not using that, I have yellow or gold, etc. Green is just something I don't think about. Nice to have that element. I know it's just color text but it really does change things in a sense.

[Jig]

This game partly is about experimenting with the form, so I'm glad colours are kind of playing a role - well in keeping with the board game aesthetic I was plugging for so I'm on board with it if youse want to do it. :)

What I will ask is that I don't ever want to have to try to read this. So if colours become a consistent thing that are used, and you end using dialogue distinguished from your own colour (whether by collab or just quoting another character generally), could you please use a more neutral tone than the one they're using for the sake of our eyeballs?

So it might look like

"Blahdy blah" said Mr Purple.
"I quite agree" said Countess Tangerine.

rather than

"Blahdy blah" said Mr Purple.
"I quite agree" said Countess Tangerine.

The mark of a good GM is keeping a level head and putting some positive boundaries in place so nobody goes blind from the sheer vivacity of it all.

@Wade Wilson

Well it's either going to be you or me, right?

@Jig - I try to use "dull" or "metallic" colors over "sharp" or "bright" colors anyway.

@Gowi

Right.

[Gowi]

Who has the higher initiative, eh?

[Jig]

Wade has the higher initiative, on grounds of having already written most of his post. :3

That said, there's wiggle-room to get Mr Cyan (I can't remember names or whether people officially have them yet at this stage, so I might be referring to people by their colours for a little while ^^) involved, too.

Wade, once you're done, can you throw it over to Gowi before posting to see if Mr Cyan would get involved? If Gowi says that yes he would, maybe work out between you how the post ends, and then it's Gowi's turn to muscle in. If Mr Cyan wouldn't get involved, then the post probably stands as it is.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we may quickly learn that most of the posts in this are going to be a mad scrabble amid the me-not-telling-you-what's-going-on-ness. :P

[Gowi]

As long as we communicate we should be spiffy.

@Jig

Woops, hadn't noticed this post before I posted my own. Gowi can read it over and PM me about anyting that Mr. Cyan might do, and I'll edit it in.

[Gowi]

If you guys keep saying Mr. Cyan I am probably going to watch Reservoir Dogs by the end of today.

[Jig]

Sounds good. :)

@Gowi; would Mr Cyan have gotten involved at any point?
