General RPG Talkies...

[Sloth]

Any general stuff goes here - spam will be killed as fast as I can click buttons. If you want to tell us you're going away for a while - do so but don't spam this place up...

Attention: As of this post - The GMs will be able to post for any player, as to say that the Groups will be and used if/when needed to avoid confusion. So GMs can swap groups and move people between groups...

As this rule slightly screws with color coding the posts, please "Group" in whatever color that GM already has.

Jintor
Sloth
Smoke

Also we must stress - Players cannot controll other players...

[Smoke]

Just to clarify;

Any Gm can now control any player, groups will only be used in certain situations by gm's when needed to avoid confusion.

[Krynn72]

So how do players know what group they're supposed to be in at any given moment?

[Smoke]

We'll tell you. This is to help things on the Gm's side, and to get things rolling.

Having said that I'm hardly the most productive poster at the moment, but I'm working on it.

[Azner]

Why is sloth bolded, and jintor and smoke not

Hmmmph.

I also request bolding of group tags and scapping of underlines. The underlines just make things harder to read. And also,do must we write Jintors group and can we just write Digimans or whatever we can come up with in our own group color?

[Jintor]

Go ahead, as long as you keep the violet.

[Krynn72]

More posting plz.

[Sloth]

I agree with the above statement - I'm not getting annoyed at the moment as many of you may be just enjoying the OB - but come on? If you think we {the GMs} need to post an update, just give us a PM...

[The Monkey]

My group never posts :(

[Darkside55]

'tis true.

But we need the GMs to post...right now, without Jintor or Smoke posting, a lot of us are deadlocked. We can't do anything. I haven't been able to post anything for over a week and a half now because I simply CAN'T.

[Sloth]

I'll get in contact with both of them...

[Sulkdodds]

How's this going? I wish I could post but I'm too busy; maybe in December. D:

Someone summarise how things are going down? I'm interested. As a layman observer.

[dekstar]

I think Smoke's group needs a major update. I for one don't know where we are (I think we've just taken the injured guys somewhere with Rimfire).

[Darkside55]

Most of our group is currently guarding the main lobby and watching over the drunken man from the Dive Bar, and the unconcious accountant from administration.

You, me, Riom, and Seagull have walked off to the secondary lobby.

[Sloth]

Mega Update on all fronts on Tuesday - if the other GMs don't write them then I will...

[Jintor]

Heard and received.

(Just stop bugging me about the map... :()

[Acepilotf14]

I think it's beggining to die out. We need to start Chapter 2, so it can be revived..

[Azner]

qft

charererer

[Smoke]

Soon my children. Soon.

[Sloth]

Sorry for the lack for GMship - i'm swamped with schoolwork at the moment... And my girlfriend just got into a row of bullshit with bullying at school - to top that off i have 5 days left of school till exams... So the RPG is simmering for a while.

[Insano]

Don't worry, so be it.

[Koola Mena]

Indeed, tis all good

[Sloth]

Just stay with me on this one...

[Azner]

SIMMERING?

*Sets the gas up to full*

BURN BABY BURN

[Sloth]

IS ALIVE AGAIN!

heheeh

[Krynn72]

\o/

Now post bitches.

Also, the two groups on the main floor need a pretty major update as well.

[Sloth]

I'll prod Jints and Smoke when I can...

[Acepilotf14]

needs chapter two

[Sloth]

We might have a Chapter 1.5 to top up regg posting player numbers...


All who want in, post a chara sheet.

[Darkside55]

Character sheet? Does this mean I gotta make some die rolls?

[Sloth]

Bugger that - i was saying a same sort of application as last time, any players that are in at the moment need not re-apply.

[Acepilotf14]

I call Barbarian.
/Will make sheet later, in school!/

[Darkside55]

RAARGH, BARBARIAN

No wait, we'd have to do it like d20 Modern. Can't have barbarians running around in this day and age.

[Krynn72]

Im supposedly in already, but i have to wait for jintor to give me right circumstance to start playing. And Jintor is nowhere to be found :(

[Acepilotf14]

RAAAAAAAAAAAARGH

Then I go and pet kitten.

[Krynn72]

*cough*jintor*cough*

[Jintor]

Huh? Did someone say my name?

[Acepilotf14]

plz make 1.5
ME WANT PLAY

[Beerdude26]

Haven't been around for two weeks, lemme see if I'm already NPCed

[The Monkey]

No one has posted in Smoke's group since the 21st.

[Darkside55]

Because we can't. :(

[Jintor]

This forum will ****ing revive when Sloth finishes his equivilent of the HSC and I finish my god-damned Violin exam. (And when TF2 releases its sweet, sweet grip on my brains).

[Darkside55]

His eyes squeezed shut as he pinched the bridge of his nose, shaking his head. Weeks, he thought, it's been weeks. He sighed in frustration; it was aggravating. He needed to stretch his mental legs. He needed to write.

"Maybe I could just move the story along myself," he wondered aloud. "Write something in the interim, even a little something."

No, that'd be taking power from the GMs. He chastised himself for the idea. Players cannot move the stories along; to do so would be to gain an unfair hold on the game, and it'd devolve into a cross between an RPG and a multi-participant fanfic--definately not a road he wanted to tread.

"Maybe I could become a GM!"

No, he thought, I hate that idea. I enjoy playing the game.

"So what can I do?" he pondered.

Wait, he replied internally. Wait until a GM posts. That's all you CAN do right now.

And maybe bitch a little, he added, smiling to himself.

[Sloth]

I am massivly sorry - exams have soaked up more time than i had hoped, but loosing both my GMs to various means doesn't help either.

I find myself responsible for this thing that so many people enjoy and mark my words it will return, just give me another week and somehow either another GM or Smoke back...

[Jintor]

I know my excuses, but where did Smoke go? D:

[Darkside55]

Haha, don't be sorry, I'm just ribbing you guys.

Also I wonder where Smoke went too...he used to stop by in my IRC channel and chat, but now he's dropped off the face of the earth.

Also...like, right after I typed up my post, I started thinking about becoming a GM. Maybe...maybe. It'd certainly mean I'd have to take a backseat to the actions, but on the other hand, causing zombie mayhem for the players certainly sounds like a plan. I will give it some more thought.

[Jintor]

You and me, Darkseid, together we shall spread terror into the hearts of men. (And maybe women, but more than likely not.)

[Darkside55]

Smoke's disappearance does leave a gap to fill.

Also speaking of women, we've gotten a lot more on these forums lately. You never know, they might turn up to fight some zombies.

[Krynn72]

Darkside for president!


err, GM!

[Ennui]

Smoke wishes for me to inform the thread that he's still onboard, so don't replace him.

[Jintor]

Allright, we're getting off the ground once more. Let's keep this Zombiecon alive!

Figuratively speaking.

[Beerdude26]

Question: May I insersh myself into the thread? (Don't worry, I won't make it some kind of "OMFG EPIC, SHOOT 3 ZOMBIES IN HEAD WITH ONE HARPOON" insertion)

[Darkside55]

If more people are going to come in, now's definately the time.

[Jintor]

Yes, you may. So long as it's sensible and crap.

[Krynn72]

I am without my own computer for an indefinite amount of time. Ill be using my roomates comp when hes out (shh dont tell him), so I should still be able to post, but just a heads up in case you guys notice an absence of Krynn in the thread.

[99.vikram]

How do I join this? Are there any forms I have to fill out? :p

[Krynn72]

You just make a post saying what you're doing. You can just assume that during the frenzy before, we lost track of a bunch of people, and now you're all just coming out of the woodworks. I'd say, just let us know what you were doing during the initial phase, and what youre doing now.

[Druckles]

I was wondering, while thinking it through, whether it might be a good idea to create a new group leader? Making 4 groups, allowing more people into the fray...

[Acepilotf14]

You should just enter in, and whoever you make contact with will be your group, pretty much.
