Sorry, Swith. I just feel that everyone else is better than me at RP'ing, it always seems like that.

I'm back. Sorry I missed all the fun!

Bran, if you say you're rubbish one more time, I'm going to lose my temper and soundly flay your skin with two dead caterpillars.

Olthar... believe it or not, we play straight characters. We leave the lesbian love to our male players.


We'd use DeM and give each person a chance to really show off their stuff.

EH is a slower moving thread. That's why their posts are long. They're not a blitz thread like we have here, so players will need to keep that in mind. Look at their thread and note the amount of time that passes between posts.

Your ability to write isn't what matters... it's your ability to weave a story into your posts. It's also your ability to follow OP (Reg) guidance because he's the one telling you about elements. You'll need to read everyone else's posts because they might contain information you need to formulate your reply.

Proper RP technique WILL matter. You can't use colored fonts to distinguish your character as he's speaking. You need to stick to black font (or the default color for Dark screen) and designate the character who is speaking by adding his name (John said) although that isn't necessary if it's a single character responding to a single character (he/she said). Asterisks to designation action (*runs*) aren't good technique. That said, I don't give a darn if you do it here. *nods*

This won't be a beer and pizza game.

Also. Nightkill reserves the right to deny anyone from our RP. It's his scenario and he's OP. He's going to be looking at our IC to see how personalities mesh here, to see how characters react to things, and how fluid posts are, yadda yadda.

And finally... no one has to participate. I mean, this isn't school where people need to do their schoolwork. If writing longs posts or reading them isn't your cup of tea, that's cool. You're still awesome. We still like ya.

When you say that...

If I'm honest, I'm not sure if I'm comfortable RP'ing EH. It personally just doesn't work for me, and I don't think I could really make it. Hope you don't mind too much if I just stick to observing.

Nat: Night's always in some bizarre state somewhere between "intoxicated enough to kill a hair metal lead singer" and "annoying Mormon missionary sober".

Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

Aw guys, don't put yourselves down before it's already even begun. Come on, I've seen some great work come out of everyone, it will be a little more difficult than the status quo, but if you really pump it, I'm sure you can give something worth at least trying for. Even if we don't get accepted, at least we still showed that we've got the passion, right? To me, that's the best trait in a writer of any quality. :)

So I responded to Tipper Swith, Ozzall's now open for interaction, free of Volt.
"Quod Vult, Valde Valt"

Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put out in K.P.

Swith and Thriller just woke up and are having coffee. Meanwhile, because we were offline kinda-sorta, the group started a tour. Our characters will catch up or else explore the city with the kids.

I think yours are still in the hotel room with our characters?

Gio, did you take Turtleboss with you?

Aeten, I replied. I figured Ozzall might be less intimidated talking to little Tipper without a hulking brute standing around. I hope you don't mind.

Nah, agreed. Volt even threatened to cave his face in if he tried anything with Tipper. That and he's a reminder of Chaos, seeing how he was bat wings, feathers, fangs, tentacle tongue, talons, and now genestealer eyes.

Also, Bran, if you're online and reading this, do you mind if I wing it? Eastern Bloc city in feel? I'm only familiar with the Ukraine, but I can give it a go for the GermanFam if you don't mind.
