First, before someone gets their tampon in a twist, This isnt in Welcome to the Shadows because I dont think we will do much gaming here.

Hopefully this thread will make it easier to post questions and for everyone to get together.

Roll Call

Aku-Jack Wired
HarryChrishnaugh-Steven Verduzco
Jaruen-Puck (or "the water chica"?)
APB-???
Captain Jackass-Mini Jackass
KDB-???

Aku-Just need your 20 questions

Harry-I think I have everything...my desk is hiding some of it though

Jauren-need your character info...and need your Yahoo info

Capt J-need your character info (does Jaruen have him?).

APB-dont even know your Dumpshock name---need your character

Why does this say OOC?

Hey now!

it says ooc because we are to speak like tuki birds ack ack ooc ooc tuki tuki and all that rot.

Anyways the name up there is the name on my characters driver's license. just for clarity's sake.

sorry thought that was his street name.

working on getting everything cleaned up now, sorry i havent been around, i donno what i did to my comp to kill it so good heh...

Porn

Dues' way of telling me to stop looking at it eh? fry my vid card (atleast) and maybe my mobo too... lol

Well we ran Friday night and I got mixed reviews. I tried to run a four hour game, but by hour three people started to bail. Please give me honest critique, so I can improve for next time.

I'm sorry i bailed out on ya Bastard, but at that point, i was falling asleep, and i had given atleast 4 hours (11pm my time-2 am) not including the first hour that was mostly ooc chatter anyways) i hope you dont consider me one of the flakes.

no no...just players were pming me and i couldnt keep up...and i felt everyone was getting frustrated with me. I had fun though..

It was good, really. Just a little hard. Lily has decided that sleeping at night is highly overrated, and, therefore, noone should participate in it. As she is immobil, she really can't affect too many of you with her insidious new plot of world domination through sleep deprivation, however, we keep her in our room, so she pretty much has us under her oh-so-tiny little finger. Hopefully, next time, I will be a little more alert. I really think we should put up a game in Welcome, or play it here, if the admins allow, for all the general descriptions, routine actions, and limit our play to a couple of times a month, for some good combat or rping stuff. Remeber how bad we all were the first time we played tabletop, looking up all the rules 30 times apiece, and that was without the Matrix crap. Anyways, my point is it didn't get smooth for us for quite a while. I think this is the same thing. We don't really have a format worked out yet, so we are going to hit all the rough spots. Keep on playing this way, however, and we will smooth it out. And Nathan might learn how to type faster than 5 wpm. (that's words per minute, for anyone who isn't a typist). Definately, keep it up. If I say I can't for whatever reason, I will mean it, it won't be a cop out. I am totally interested in keeping this game alive.

i kindof agree that maybe doing it pbp would be a good idea, atleast for the non combative stuff. If you can keep the story moving to the point where every friday is "fight night" i think that would be kick ass, or atleast the major fights atleast. I'm sure you might've been ready to kill mew though bastard, i really thought perception was a skill (hey, it's the dnd in me trying to get out "everyone make spot and listen checks! "hehe)

It did seem slowish to me, but i didnt want to put any additional stress on you by doing something myself. I was tempted to pull out one of my drones and do some sight seeing, but again, that would have been additional work for you, and most likely all i would've gotten out of it would have been to see the limo, meh...

No i wasnt gonna kill anyone...but it is a good idea. I thought it was going well, but I was trying to answer five PMs at a time, and by the time I finished the fifth, I had another round waiting, all reading "GM...?" Hehe....so as long as everyone was not upset with me I would love to continue. Need a system for OOC and IC though, cause I had to keep scanning back up...I didnt know what was goin on.

Aku send the drones...just remember to give me time to respond I had Jaruen astrally scoping and Harry pming me their actions...and "the Black Wind" doing his thing.

Right now the mission is legwork. Locate the dudes parents. I cant remember, but someone did have a lead where to start looking. If they didnt catch it, someone else will.

Jaruen..actually I thought this went more smoothly than most of our FtF (face to face) runs. It was a bit slower, but at least I heard from everyone, and if I missed it I just had to scroll up! horray! Talk to Nerdthaniel and AB if you get a chance....see what they thought.



Everyone---next time I need more help keeping OOC and IC seperate. It would help me move a lot faster.

Thanks for the input so far.

well, i was tlaking while we were sitting in the park waiting, perhaps if theres time i could do some drone work sometime during the week, and try and update the team if need be, i understand it (as a mechanical happening) can be boring for other players

thats why you pm me Thats why it will run a bit slow if you arent proactive. I am essencially running as many games as there are players.

so are we running every week or every other?


aka whens the next game? heh

im ready when everyone else is

Man, that is just so different on a PbP board, from when you said that last Friday night, when we were all in leather!

I was in latex, not leather, you freak.

So far it looks like Sunday afternoon is the best time.

I have no response from Captain Jackass or APB so far.

I plan to have two rooms this time, one IC only and one OOC only...its too hard for me to run otherwise.

Right now the plan is to start around 1500 Sunday Pacific time. I will be on early, so that anyone that wants to get a head start on solo legwork and such can do so.

Is this time good for everyone so far? If everyone wants to bump it up or back we can do so.

This is APB. My character's name is Machin Shin.

This is the information you all have so far:

-Mr Hogo Akabashi, a well dressed Troll, has hired you to help him find his parents

-They used to be upper level execs for Fuchi, but due to company policy, he was sent to Yomi Island, a metahuman internment camp, when he Goblinized

-Since then he has made a name for himself in the art world

-He went back to Japan to find his parents, where his search has lead him to Seattle, where they were transferred shortly after his departure.

-In Seattle, he has used most of his resources, but has run dry (information wise), and is looking for help locating his parents

-He is paying you 2,000 each, plus Bubba has 500 that Akabashi gave as spending money

-When you locate his parents you are to call him and take him to them



In game you all have decided to seperate, and do some legwork and meet back up the next day at 1600 at McBeavis's


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyone who wants to do their legwork, we can do it before noon pac time or after 2200, leave a time here to meet via yahoo messanger or just pm me

I will be moving this to Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?! OOC, in Welcome to the Shadows later this week.
