Re: Bram: Hunt for the Irinen OOC

Good idea! As soon as I get reliable internet I will add all of our characters to the ship list, perhaps even forgoing the character list. Have not decided on that yet. Hoping to have internet tomorrow, but there is the slight issue of them mailing me the modem and me not having a key for the mailbox for the next three days... :/

by **Kathryn Lacey** Tue Aug 09, 2011 12:14 pm

Oooh. That's a very good point. If you link their names in the ship information, there won't be any need for the list in the first post. =3

I hope you can get your modem soon. I'm sorry it's been so difficult so far. =\

I took Silv's laptop to my grandmas and tried working on it, and was almost done when...the laptop randomly highlighted everything and erased. -_- Me thinks I will just wait until I get my desktop ready. Sorry Sad

Don't be sorry Ryona, it happens. I hate that feeling of losing everything you've worked so hard to write. Oftentimes, the second attempt just doesn't feel as good either, and some of your motivation is killed. I'm patiently awaiting your return and the jump start to this RP.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Tue Aug 09, 2011 5:45 pm

Man... That does suck... Did typing CTRL+Z not bring it all back? I hate that feeling, too, when all of my work just goes away because of an accidental click or something. It's why I feel an overwhelming need to type everything up in Notepad or Word before typing it into a browser. Usually, if something awful happens, Word will save a bit/most of the work typed into it.

by **Gadreille** Tue Aug 09, 2011 6:00 pm

Yea, since it was just altering code and not a post I didn't bother with that, grrr. And it replaced everyone with a space rather than cutting it, which was even lamer haha. It was just some organization stuff, at least I didn't ruin what is currently up.

Anyone heard from Hello Danger? I can't post until after he.

by **Artorius** Tue Aug 09, 2011 6:26 pm

I haven't heard a peep, sadly.

@Kathryn,
I totally understand that. I started writing my posts up in word as well. I was tired of the page timing out, or other misfortunes. Finally, I wised up and decided that cutting and pasting wasn't as bad as losing everything.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Tue Aug 09, 2011 6:29 pm

Ryona, that is lame, but you're right about the silver lining being that the original information wasn't lost.

Unfortunately, I haven't heard even a peep from Danger. =(

Artorius, high five for learning from past mistakes!

by **Gadreille** Thu Aug 11, 2011 8:14 pm

K guys, I'm back on. We are still waiting on Buzz, Plague, and HD, right? I'll try to get in contact with HD and see whats what there.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Aug 12, 2011 2:44 pm

I'll contact Guilty to let him know he can post again since the other two pirates have done so. ^^_^^

by **Gadreille** Fri Aug 12, 2011 5:25 pm

Thanks. I PMed people to see whats up, but no response yet :/

by **Kathryn Lacey** Fri Aug 12, 2011 5:44 pm

Ditto. =(

by **Artorius** Fri Aug 12, 2011 9:30 pm

Well, I'm making it clear right now that I'm still in, and ready to go whenever this resumes.

by **Guilty Carrion** Sat Aug 13, 2011 1:57 am

Howdy.

I'm still interested, just need to grab the time to sit down and figure out my post. Should be up in the next couple days.

by **Gadreille** Sat Aug 13, 2011 10:31 am

Woot. One down. Two to get ahold of Smile

by Undisputed Sun Aug 14, 2011 7:56 am

yeesh...in danger of seeming impatient, i had hoped this would be a faster RP, with more posts. Oh well, i shall change mindsets and become patient as needed then! Come on Cap'n, show us the way for the pirates Razz

by **Guilty Carrion** Sun Aug 14, 2011 4:33 pm

Ryona, is the Great Break closer(in regards to its location off the map) to Mathyr, Ton or Pern? I'm 'planning' the route in my post, so I'm trying to decipher it.

by **Gadreille** Sun Aug 14, 2011 4:37 pm

Consider it closest to Pern, though I imagined it arching slightly. Pern is still the closest. There are no real distances written down, but make it a fair ways off the coast of Pern.

by **Guilty Carrion** Sun Aug 14, 2011 4:38 pm

Hrm....then I must delay our pirates, or else we're gonna be hitting it waaayyy sooner than everyone else.

by **Gadreille** Sun Aug 14, 2011 5:12 pm

Pillage and plunder to your heart's content Very Happy

by **Guilty Carrion** Mon Aug 15, 2011 6:17 am

Pirates! I need suggestions and/or ideas for our journey to the break, such as routes, delays, what have you! PM me yer ideas, ya dogs, and we'll sort this right out so I can get it done!

by **Gadreille** Sat Aug 20, 2011 7:59 pm

Hello Danger is MIA, I can't get ahold of him on here or facebook, so after buzz and Guilty post, we will be moving on without him.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Sat Aug 20, 2011 8:46 pm

Mmkay. I PMed Guilty about a potential idea, so while I haven't gotten a response back, I'm going to assume that he's working on it. =3

by **Guilty Carrion** Mon Aug 22, 2011 11:50 pm

Posted.

If you're gonna dance with a bigger beast, then you best know where it's gonna be stepping. Describe your days, dear pirates(feel free to make crew scruffles, and whatever else pleases your drunken hearts) but come nightfall, the Captain will be speaking with the two of ya for some...planning.

Hope it's good. The navy raid(thanks Kathryn) will give us some action soon, just gotta get to it.

by **Gadreille** Mon Aug 22, 2011 11:56 pm

I'm going to read it in the morning...I can't wait! Well, obviously I can...but I want to be able to read it with my eyes open, so yea.

I just realized that if I am continuing without HD, I am going to be role playing by myself... Any thoughts as to WTH to do about that, please enlighten me.

by **Kathryn Lacey** Tue Aug 23, 2011 2:01 am

I'm going to read your post momentarily, Guilty!

Ryona, there are a couple of options for you of which I can currently think.

1. One of the two ships we have could end up meeting with the Jolly Possum. One of them could either take over the other ship, or maybe something happened to the Possum, and the crew allows all or part of the damaged ship's crew to tag along. I can definitely see them taking Dyna due to both her natural abilities and her learned ones.

2. Maybe one of the two other ships meet the Jolly Possum and decide to tag along with the treasure hunters rather than the crew they signed on to join.

Also, we'll want Sailing Master Mosey added to the list of pirate NPC's. I can add it if you want, but I feel weird editing posts without a direct request ((especially since you internet is now stable)) since this is something you're actually running and not a fun little anarchy like the book club. ^^_^^;;

by **Gadreille** Tue Aug 23, 2011 10:35 am

I'll add the NPC after I read the post (which I will donow, so long as Taeo stays asleep lol).

As for leaving the Jolly Possum...I don't really want to yet, which is completely selfish and dumb but true. SIlvone offered to run Chance for me, but I'm going to see if I can find someone else to join (unless someone from the albatross or fasar's hoard wants to hop ships, but I think you guys have a good thing going).

Edit: Read and NPC added. The only reason I ask to do it myself is it forces me to read through each post attentively, and remember the characters better. If ever I am absent though, and something needs to be edited here, you can do it and just let me know via PM that you have Smile

by **Artorius** Tue Aug 23, 2011 3:51 pm

I'd be willing to join forces if they don't come back. The way I see it Alphonsus is willing to do just about anything (except hurting innocents) to get to the Irinen first.

by **Gadreille** Wed Aug 24, 2011 5:12 pm

If I can't find someone to join the Possum, here are the options I've given myself:

1. Carry the NPC myself, and essentially be role playing on my own. Kind of boring.

2. Have Silvone carry the NPC for me, less boring, but Silvone is busy.

3. Cross paths with the Pirates and get captured. This is cool, but I'll be losing the Jolly Possum and if Hello Danger returned, he'd have to come up with a crazy story of somehow surviving.

4. Cross paths with the Merchant ship, and join forces. Same problem as above.

What does everyone like best? Is there a variation of one of the above options you'd like to mention?

Oh yea, and Buzzwulf is the last poster before I am up, right?

by **Kathryn Lacey** Wed Aug 24, 2011 6:07 pm

So you don't see anyone being able to join the Jolly Possum instead of Dyna joining one of the other two ships? I don't see it happening with the pirates at all because they'd just do the capture ((which is totally fine by me)), but if you're worried about losing the Possum, Artorius offered to join it.
