A friend of mine once told me that 'it's only ego if you can't back it up'. Too many people like to confuse confidence for arrogance -- there's a big difference.

Not to get all psychological, but some people are actually just 'wired' to take things people say literally. I'm like that to an extent, but I've learned that people here are usually just shitposting.

Happy Anniversary, Ailyn. Six years ago, you gave me a kindred soul, and brought light into a life which for all intents and purposes had been mostly nothing but darkness.

Valentine's Day's bittersweet when you've endured a long-distance relationship for over five years. Here's to celebrating the strength of a meaningful bond, instead of taking a shallow and easy path.

This bio will get reconstructed once I've left the site for good. I'll be collecting my data in the background for now, and sorting some loose ends. I'll be on and off to do it, so don't think I'm back if you see me around. Once I've dealt with everything, I'll log out properly and remove my 'ghost' status, and that'll be the last this site sees of me. This community is in serious need of growing up, and I'm not the least bit surprised that role-plays die here so frequently.

The 'Grim Reaper's Gambit' role-play is likely to reboot elsewhere eventually. The role-play will have some modifications, so contact me if you're curious since the original project won't accurately explain everything. There's no determined date for it to happen yet, since I've got other priorities and I'm not investing a lot of time in it until enough of the people interested have free time to properly commit (lack of dedication on the part of some players practically destroyed the previous version; it's very apparent it would've died even if I hadn't decided to leave). There's a group that're quite interested, but most of them are busy.

Anyway, come back later for an update later -- or don't; it's your life.

Contact Details

Tell me who you are or I possibly won't accept the request, since I assume most requests are bots.
Yes, people who I rarely/never spoke to - or who never met me - while I was still here are welcome.
No, those who disrespected me (and aren't sorry) while I was here or are trolls/immature in general aren't welcome.
Also, keep in mind that not all of these are currently being used actively, so friend request replies might be delayed on some of them.

Playstation Network (PSN): Shoryu_Magami
(I'm fairly easy to contact through here, though I'm not really gaming much due to my main project's workload.)

Discord: Shoryu Magami#4323
(Unlike Skype, I primarily text chat on this instead of voice chat. It's currently one of the easiest ways to find me. It causes my PC a lot of problems though.)

Skype: solitaryangel1983
(Usually running on my phone, mostly so I can talk to my fiancΓ©, so it's easy to find me here. I've currently got no access to it on PC. It might take a while to see requests.)

Facebook: James Koutsoukis - Shoryu Magami
(Barely ever on this, but it exists. Mostly exists so @Ailyn Evensen can list me as her fiancΓ©. You'll find me easily on messenger if you add me, but I don't do much else.)

Yahoo IM: shoryu_magami
(Does this even still exist anymore? It used to be my main method of text chat, but it's not on my current PC.)

I'm under the impression that Snaggle's post is coming today/tonight.

With this in mind, the posting order can go Conrad, then Itzal/Paula, then Tatiana.
@Heap241

There's your answer. At this point the only person who might arrive before you is Itzal, depending on when Tatiana heads out in comparison to him and Paula.
@Heap241

The only reason I didn't want the departure and arrival posts to happen at the same time was because there's a lot of uncertainty about who's gonna get there first -- Tatiana, Conrad, or Itzal (if he goes with Paula). Until we see Conrad's post, we've got no idea if you'd arrive before him or not. That's why you'd either need to write only the departure, or wait until we find out if he's going straight there after he breaks off with Dietfried.

If he decides to immediately go there and is using transportation, it's fairly likely he'll arrive first. Perhaps @Snagglepuss89 can give an idea of that himself.

Edit: More or less got confirmation that Itzal's likely going with Paula.

Status update:

  • Further discussion took place in the Discord channel to confirm specific timelines. Conrad's the next post, with the one following his being either Henneth or Lotus -- sounds like they're both roughly arriving at the same time. Tatiana will be able to post at some point during their posts based on when they said they'd be arriving, though she could, in theory, post now so long as she only posts her departing for the estate and not reaching it. Still waiting to get a gauge of Itzal's status, but once we've got a post from Conrad that'll be organized too. James plans to drive himself to the estate, so Daniel's the only unaccounted character.

  • As discussed in the Discord channel, Lucia's most recent IC post will be edited to include the time she arrived at the escort point. I want each person who subsequently arrives at the escort point to also post their time of arrival too. This will also be listed by those not taking the escort when the arrive at the estate itself.

Alright, I've genuinely given this a bit of thought (like, for the last few hours), and I've made my decision. Consider things back on schedule. I won't be putting this thing on hiatus, but certain things will end up slowing down. Basically, during the last couple of months I put so much time into this role-play that I wasn't putting enough into my PC sorting work, but now I'm planning to balance the two. The main reason for this is that morale just isn't all that high when I'm not working on this at all, and considering a lot of the notes I need recovered require me to use my memory it's actually more helpful if I have this going on in the background to keep me in the same mind state.

Things are still moving forward, but naturally I won't be able to run really long chats over Discord with people or anything like I was before, since those were probably the main thing that distracted me from working on the PC. I'll come in sometimes and comment if people're messing around, but nothing extensive unless it's to help someone with a post or with a character application. Also, you should consider the map to be more or less entirely on hiatus for now (not only because people I want to discuss it with are rarely around, but because I just don't have time while I'm working on the data recovery), but that shouldn't cause any major problems. Anyway, long story short, I've decided that I can run this role-play while I do the data recovery, but I can't let it take all my time.

With that in mind...

Status update:

  • We're scratching the previous comment about character applications to the public closing once my data recovery is over, and I'm setting the new date to February 9 (specifically, the moment it becomes Thursday for me -- it's currently 1:19 AM on Wednesday). Indra can still finish up Daniel's CS and get him accepted, but he'll only have until the thread officially closes off to the rest of you creating second characters. This'll happen at a specific plot point that I'll warn people about later.

  • I'll be working on my part of the collaboration with Leonard, Rein, and Karlita now. There's no way any of them could arrive at the escort point immediately anyway.

  • Conrad and Henneth are the next characters to post. This will then be followed up by Lotus and Tatiana. There's a possibility that Itzal's next post happens somewhere in the middle of all this, but I figure at least one other person needs to post before we do a second collaboration between him and Paula.

  • Charlotte and Olivia have been confirmed to be likely arriving at the escort point virtually moments before it shows up. Conrad is stated to not be using the escort, and neither is Tatiana. Leonard, Rein, and Karlita's statuses regarding this aren't relevant because they're too far away to be posting at the escort soon either way. James and Daniel are the characters we don't have accounted for in terms of whether they're taking the escort or not and when they'll arrive.

  • I'm waiting until Daniel is finished before moving Annabelle over to the character tab, because I want second/third/whatever player characters to be posted there only once all the first ones are done.
@Raddum@Gohan

Alright, now that I've confirmed you're both around, I'm sending another poke.

I'll be here, even though my main role-play and working on stuff for my computer are definitely my main priorities. You should consider me available to post when it's my turn, though I might take a bit longer than I used to.

Raddum, the Cecil reply'll be up shortly after Freya gets fixed.
