I wanted to make this topic so that you guys would be aware of my upcoming schedule. Starting the morning of this Friday (the 26th) I will be going out of town for a week, while out of town I will have very limited or not internet access. When I get back I will check comic updates, as well as update the various RP threads with pertinent information. I will be back in town until the 7th of July, and then I will be gone again for college orientation for 3 days, again with questionable internet access.

After that, I will be attending a summer camp, I will most likely have no internet access for another full week. I will be back on a Saturday evening, but will have to leave the next morning to begin working at that same summer camp. I know they have internet access there, but I am currently unaware of the speed or availability of the connection. I will, however, be able to stay in contact every Saturday as well as on my night off every week. This will last until mid-august, with maybe a couple of breaks sprinkled in.

This should NOT affect the development of the RP. While attending these various events I will be working on plot and storyline information, and when I'm in town I'll be able to catch up on the latest happenings. The character I will personally be playing will not be very active in a hands-on manner in the RP, though he is a central character. Mostly he will appear to give orders, reprimand slackers, and punish prisoners as well as to advance the plot when it is necessary. To be honest, I didn't sign up on this to be player so much as the plot-mover.

As soon as I see that this chapter has ended or the information I have been given is publicly revealed, I will post the plot of the RP and then open up character applications. Any questions you have regarding any of this can be posted here or PMed directly to me.

Thanks for reading my wall of text.

I'm sorry--I was reading your wallotext, but I got distracted somehow. ;)

Good luck with all your stuff; see you when you return!

So, if you're going to be developing plot and everything that goes with it while you're gone and only checking in once a week, would we be remiss to continue discussing factions, rules about abilities, language, and general RP setup (like in the current discussion thread, or other threads we may start)?

Also, are you going to appoint/request/whatever a #2 to have control when you're not around (either this summer or once the RP starts)?

For now I'm going to hold off on appointing a "number two" so to speak, because I'll still more or less be around. Once I get into the full swing of things I'll take a look at the various RP threads and pick someone who seems to show the right "stuff" for a leadership role, regardless of their role in the actual RP.

As for debating about rules, powers, etc.. Go for it, most of what I decide on leans towards the general consensus anyway, so you'll be able to handle most things yourselves pretty well.

Okay, I might as well post this here, since the thread's already there and creating my own would be redundant. xD
I'm going to go on a two-week holiday starting Friday the 9th of July. If anyone wants to ask me something (doubt it, but meh xD), just send me a PM and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. ^^

aaaaaannnnd I'm back!

I'm in town with computer access until Monday, and then I'll be out of town with computer access (I think!) for another week.

It looks like most things went pretty well while I was away, anyone have any specific concerns to bring up to me?

Hmm.... I guess not specific, but how likely is it that you can get ahead of schedule with the planning/plot/etc.? I feel like, after the initial flurry of interest at the potential for having an RP, activity has slacked off due to the RP not actually getting ready. Which worries me (from experience) b/c I feel like we might be losing potential RPers.
(I remember you mentioned a while ago that you were also waiting for something in the actual comic to occur before you started posting stuff. If that's the holdup, then I guess there's no way around the issue. But if there's some stuff you can put out sooner, it gives people something to do to keep up interest until the actual RPing can start.)

Something should actually begin inside the next week, please!

Well, I have the plot and everything ready and typed up. I was really just waiting for a reveal in the comic to make things official, it's not huge, but it is a kind of important plot point I suppose. If D.Z. and Co. are OK with it I'll post the plot (which reveals that spoiler) and we can get started.

Hm, good point.

Okay, after three more pages, everything should be okay to go.

And so the lord spoke, and the people saw that it was righteous and just.

I guess this is my cue to actually start working out the apperance-thing for my character, then? XD

I'm getting excited. Things are finally starting to work out. ^^

A Report: I'll have sporadic wifi for the next two weeks. Hopefully after the reveal at the end of this week I don't get left too far behind...I'll try to get preliminary info in to Lithas before I leave, just in case.

Just a reminder, I will have VERY limited internet access (limited to my ipod) for the next week.


Sorry this comes just as the plot and everything were set up, but I'll try to poof in every now and then, my responses just won't be super long due to the severe difficulty of typing more than 'LOL, rite?' on the ipod keyboard.

Well, I would clean up after myself, of course.


Basic courtesy, really.
