We said that we should put the guys who can't post in the adjacent cave so that we can get into a fight, blow up the wall, and have them be like WTF???

It delays their arrival slightly, yet still makes sense, since they are just on the other side of the wall, and in the same general vicinity.

No man go ahead. I am the last post that closes off entry to other people. Also in terms of adding other people you guys all wake up in the same room for when the plot starts happening. From what my fellow GM's seem to say this is going to be Player vs. Non-player monsters.

Well, I was saying that we could be in a dead end cave, get into a short battle and either have the other guys break through the wall because they heard us, or us break the wall down. The resulting confusion stops the fight, and we decide to team up to figure out what the plot is and get out.

Man. I really don't know what the tell you guys. I am not in charge of the plot here. That would be Victis. And sadly he is asleep. I don't want to go changing up his whole thing without his go ahead. I am just the guy who gives him suggestions. Also started the thing so people could get their introduction out of the way. #don'tshootthemessanger

Well... I mean... we got a touhou character and a prepubescent necromancer in the same room as a hungover pirate, a nervous shapeshifter, and a ticked off wizard, with all of that being watched by a bored, curious, probably amoral assasin. Do you really think a fight ISN'T coming?

Oh trust me man I know it is going to get awesome up in there but my hands are tied by the fact I don't want to screw anyone out of the game before it even begins. So as I said before please be patient.

I don't intend to. That's why I said they are waking up at the same time and then the wall blows open/they blow it open. The resulting confusion gives us a perfect way to end the fight that will inevitably develop, and let's us get on with the plot.

OK, fine. Guess we took too long then. *sigh* I'll just.. go to bed. Or watch anime. I dunno. I CAN say that I hope Xana gets back earlier tomorrow, cause midday is the ONLY time my bro and I are free.

As will I in Biology. They say it's short this week, but...

Are we all talking about the same time zone here? Xana is on Pacific, so I understand what times he is talking about, relative to my Central Time.

Arizona has its own timezone? <--- [Is not geographically inclined]

I'm Pacific+4 here. But it seems I have the most free time of everyone... Thanks to...

Well, what do you call when the workers of a certain institution decide to stop working as a form of protest to get better pay and work conditions? I don't know the english word for that, so, I'll just use "that".

Anyway, thanks to the university's professors doing "that", I lost most of this semester and decided do just skip the rest of it. So, no college for me until next year. I'm already getting bored of staying home all day...

That would be a strike. And that really sucks. I'd be bored out of my skull.

Thanks for the Vocabulary+1. The forum helps fence the boredom away and I'm happy I won't have to wait much longer.

No need to worry. We are kind of each in a different time zone. That we CAN play at all is a win. No need to rush. It's no like the forum will run away from us. :lol:

Yup. Well, since Xana didn't post a turn one close, I guess you should post your first turn there now. And then you go back to posting according to the post order.

Go ahead and post you waking up. Thread title is RPG. A few seconds is all that has passed since the beginning, but I'm already near infallibly cloaked, and have decided to watch for the time being.

Finch, why did you post again on the RP post order thread? You have a spot, so if you just post your character waking up on the RPG itself, you can take back third place in posting order as the next round begins...
