I think that maybe 1/2 to 1/3 of us are still active, but only one or none can post at a time because of the non-active ones. Maybe we could move into the next operation quickly and structure it so that we don't have to wait on everyone to move on. Say, having one main squad that the inactive people are a part of, and the active people going off and doing secondary objectives while Zien controls the main squad. That would let people drop in and out when they could without having to justify how they were there all along, and the less active players wouldn't even necessarily need to read more than Zein's posts to catch up. Just an idea.

That would be good. Since I was inactive for a bit, it was sort of difficult for me to reinsert myself in the story, and having an active squad and an inactive squad could solve that.

Any ideas?

CO-OP here. I think that if we finish this intro ep and get into the meat of the story, that could be our ticket to rejuvenation.

Well, I've already suggested one thing. If it doesn't fit with the plotline or you don't like it we can come up with something else, though.

Yeah, let's get that.

Everyone fine with a time skip to the event that will put the plot in motion?

If so, Vancon mind writing it?

Right now the story is too convoluted (might be the cause of lack of posts) for me to understand what's going on. Plus, I'm not entirely sure as to what needs to be said.

Time skip? Sure, as long as it makes sense.

I'm not sure we even really need a time skip. All Zien needs to do is have us run back into the sewers, get on the shuttle, blow the reactor, and not look at the explosion like movie heroes. he could just do it in a quick post, and then lead us into the next op. Or, if Zien doesn't have that much time to write, I'm fine with a time skip.

The next OP is five months later.

Here's my schedule.

Edit first chapter of story.

Think of what next chapter will be.

World build.

Get ideas.

Yell at sister.

Walk Cat outside.

Fight with kitten to have it stay inside.

And it's near my bed time and I am never able to get sleep.

What do you guys think will be a good length for the timeskip.

A few days.

A week or two.

A month or two.
