@josephbwho you waiting on?
Hey! We are looking for some people to join in our rp. We need two to three at the moment but always drop a line to see if we are still accepting! The role play is about witches coven and a group of hunters that are at arms against each other, with love interests, personal character arcs and all that fun jazz. We are currently looking for two or three hunters but who knows, we might add another witch! Come on down the people are fun and we post often.

http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/92931-spells-in-the-dark-16-for-dark-themes/ooc?page=30#post-3514520 here is the link to the rp.
Jason groaned slightly to himself as the girl named Nikki invited him to join their group. Just what he needed a detour from his plan. But he couldn't just leave these kids out here by themselves. He will have to convince them to turn around and head for San Diego.

He moved forward and retrieved his combat knife from the dead walker's head. whiping the blood and brain matter on the dirty clothes before moving on. And speaking to Nikki, " lucky guess, if my team were out there you would have never known where, I only made contact because I wanted to. also, Technically Marines were apart of the navy.... Why must I be a Marine? Why not Army? Or national guard? "

Suddenly he heard a shot from a 50. Cal Barrett. "Jesus...." He said to himself. He wasn't expecting it. He knew the shot from anywhere as his buddy was the sniper of the team and that was his weapon of choice. He looked around to see a walker dropping far ahead and from how the walker's head snapped back he could tell the shot came from behind him. He looked back from where they came from and spotted the bif truck the redhead was driving, he would guess she was on the top as he would do the same but it was hard to see the small body on top from this angle.

"What the hell is she thinking?!" He said to himself, sure she was helping but in the long run it would only attract more walkers. He jumped onto a car and looked behind him to see if there was any walkers directly behind him before standing up, waving his arms back and forth to gain the girls attention, after a few seconds he motioned her to stop by flattening his hand and giving the 'cut it out' motion by quickly moving it in front of his neck a few times.

Hopefully she would listen, or if she did continue whe would have to double back and stop her. Looking to Nikki he said, " better find shelter quick, every walker In mile or so radius heard those shots. "
@Ellionwhat the....
Manatee go ahead and POOOOOOST :0
@Wickyeah hence why I didn't bring it up I was just using it as an example
Wow. Ok. I'm not nitpicking, if I was I would have brought up maybe 10 more things, and had wick change her comment In our collab. As I said before and I'll say again I was giving the reason on why I didn't post last night, I wasn't attacking you. You don't have to bite back. I'm a very realistic writer ( or I try to be) I googled my character a lot (like where he was based what seal team is actually based there, how many years it has to be before he could become a lieutenant. What he is trained in, why he would be so far inland. ) I'm sorry that offends you but just so you know from now on I'm going to be like this. If your chapter does something that doesn't make sense to me I'm going to do my best to make it sound realistic for the both of us. It's just how I do things. Of course the Gm has a final say, but I'm not going to slack in my writing and my just to appease you. I actually want to become a better writer so I'm going to push myself.

The Stalker fell a moment late Spotting another one slightly further up the road she aimed at that one as well, taking the risk of an imperfect calculation in favour ...... care much about the groups reaction to the zombies ahead of them falling out of apparent nowhere. They were too far away by now to hear her gunshots.

From these couple sentences it made me deduce, it was over a mile long shot, since they were 1. Too far to hear it, 2. 50. Cal snipers are loud as fuck. Suppressed or not.

Also it is plausible a ten year old to kill a zombie with a bat. Taking into consideration that 1. kids have killed living adults with a bat before, 2. Bones become more brittle longer after death. 3. It only takes 16 to about 198 psi to crack a skull. 4. Adrenaline can greatly increase ones strength (being attributed to mothers holding up cars that would crush their children) also she being a softball player swinging a 2 lb bat often increases her muscle mass of by a little. So yes it's plausible.

I'm sorry if I sound like a dick, not my intention. Just bring up the reasons why I had an issue with the realism in it. I actually enjoy some of your posts I read up on so I'm not attacking your writing.

Another reason I bring it up is because it is a fantasy fiction, and people often use fantasy as a crutch to not think on how their characters now how to do something. Or making assumptions on like (sorry wick) figuring out what branch of military someone is in just by looking at him for a couple seconds. If that said person had a military background and can notice the difference in uniform or stance or even standard issue weapons.

Just little things like that can really flesh out a character and make them more real. (I fall under that trap as well.) but becoming better writers is to remember to make it as realistic as possible even in a fantasy setting.

I also understand we are at different levels of writing and that's fine. I was just pointing out a (too me) a major flaw that conflicts with my character and not wanting to impose on others because in reality Jason really wouldn't leave 10k behind unless absolutely told to by her, but with the fact of the saying the group never heard the shot cause they are too far away, yet they are well within a mile and that weapon is as loud as it is. It just made it hard for me to decide, do I ignore that and piss you off by doing what Jason would really do or go against my characters nature and ignore her entirely.

Sorry if I sound like a dick again, I'm not meaning to be. Just explaining my delema
U@josephb I would probably have him follow, I had a hard time posting last night because of the technical issue of not hearing a 50. Cal Barrett sniper rifle even if it was surpressed you can still hear that beast a mile away, and only a few snipers in the world can get mile long shots. I know it's a fantasy story but I still like realism in it, anal I know. So I was having a hard time deciding to ignore it or bring it up in the rp. But while debating something came up and I couldn't.

Any who sorry I'll just have him follow.
I won't be able to post for a while (like 14 hours)people can move Ahead if they like I'll catch up.
