[OOC] The Spirits Within: Oakridge Chronicles

[DJAtomika]

The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way.

I think I'm gonna post after someone else in either mission posts first. Gonna need a little inspiration before I write.

The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way.

My post is half-written, although I was worried whether or not my partners were still here. Fortunately, it seems they still are.

I'm also here, but my plan was to post today actually. I've had a really busy weekend and have basically been hitting the bed when I got home both Saturday and Sunday. That aside however, I'd like to ask if we could have a minimum posting frequency put up in the OP of this OOC or something. I don't want to be marked for inactivity when this and one more RP are about the only things I actually write for at the moment and it seems like you, @Prisk, have a certain expectation in mind when it comes to how speedy you think IC posts should appear. At least that way, we will all have a clear time frame in which to understand when it's getting close to the line to where you think some of us are gone.

I hope that didn't come off the wrong way because I actually really like this roleplay, I just don't want it to seem like I'm inactive when that's not the case.

EDIT - Also, currently writing a post. Guess I should have made that clearer. It'll be up after work today. Just for future relevance, I usually hit work about 9AM EST and get off about 8PM EST. Look for a post around then :).

Two weeks is what I had in mind for the upper limit of post frequency. After that the character will be marked as inactive. But, as you can come back anytime, it's not really a big deal.

This perception of time is just a GM-thing. I'm sure you can relate. A week feels like a month when someone hasn't posted.

I'll update the first post with a 'rules' section.

Edit-

_{◆ Rules}
➡ Be courteous to each other, compromise instead of complain, and communicate with me no matter how trivial the matter.

➡ Summarize posts considerably longer than a thousand words. This can be done in a hider at the end of the post.

➡ Two weeks is the upper limit for post frequency. A character/player will be marked as inactive after that time.

➡ Post updates about yourself in the out-of-character thread whenever you can. If you have nothing to say, the magic words are: The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way.

Half way through my post, work kept me busy yesterday so I wasn't able to finish it up like I would have liked.

The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way.

[Ozerath]

Gonna have a post up in a bit, its a little on the short side though.

[Redrum]

I'll wait for your post @Ozerath, that way I can involve Thael showing up with the rest of the group and avoid any loose strings in my post.

[Ozerath]

And posted.

[smarty0114]

Me and Anima's post is up finally :)

[FantasyChic]

I posted!

[Anima]

The Wicked Witch of the West went her own way > : (!!!

Collabing on an iPad is one of the hardest things I've had to do with respect to rping yet!

[DJAtomika]

@FantasyChic And that's what I needed. I shall write something for Eric approaching their group in a bit!

[FantasyChic]

@DJAtomika Yay! You're welcome

[icmasticc]

I've posted now too. Excited to get to the mission scenes, boy oh boy.

[DJAtomika]

Done and dusted.

I am going to make Rogart tease Eric about how small he is. Constantly.

[Mirandae]

Marvelous posts all around. ♥

I hope I didn't stress everyone out about the activity thing. That was meant for the overall pacing of the roleplay, not as a scolding or anything.

So, this is where things sort of split into the four missions. @Rockette will run the show on the Reactor Mission, which means that any questions about the reactor that you might have are best directed at her.

The Hammer is the only consistent mission, and the other events sort of work towards it. Eventually, we will all meet at the Hammer, and stay there until the next set of side-missions/events pop up, at which point you get to choose what you want to do again.

@Anima
An iPad? Wow. And I find texting on my phone tedious.

Absorbing the beast and the spirits within

@Redrum

Bam, title drop, we're done here boys and girls, pack it up.

On a serious note, @Prisk, @Redrum, @Ozerath, @Hexaflexagon, do y'all mind splitting up and coming up with our own NPC rumours and fun times and meet up after we each post, or do y'all wanna stay together?

@Vox

I'd be open to doing either! Also, sorry about not involving Roxelana in my post, @Hexaflexagon -- went ahead and added her in now. I hadn't realized she was coming along until Vox said something.

[Hexaflexagon]

Looks good to me as well. No character picture? The last sentence of the first spirit doesn't have a punctuation mark. Other than that, all good!

@Prisk

Alright! Oh and the character picture isn't working on your end... Most curious indeed. I'll see if that is something I can fix.

@Vox
I'm going to be terribly unhelpful here and say I don't care much either way. I'm flexible to whatever the group prefers.

@Redrum
Eh no harm done, considering I haven't even made my first post introducing her yet I'd say it's more my fault than yours.

Speaking of that post, I'm in the midst of working on it at the moment; taking my moment of respite for the daily chaos to get it done. So expect it sooner rather than later!

[Mirandae]

@Vox
I like that idea. We can totally do that. A post dedicated to just going around and talking to the villagers. I don't think they should know the Eidolon by name, just that they think one is in the mountain—one of fire!

@Hexaflexagon
There isn't even a broken link. Usually when someone's pictures don't work, I see a broken link. In your character sheet, there's nothing. Weird! Could you show the code you're using? Put the [code.] tags around whatever you use for the image.

Oh, yeah, another note, I picked up Dark Soul 3 yesterday! I might be a little preoccupied for a moment! But I'll read the new posts today.
