Thread thread thread. Thread. The word will lose meaning if you read it enough.

It just occurred to me that it'd probably be a good idea to have a stickied thread for discussing the current, active RP thread in the story, rather than using OOC posts in the thread itself (since something about that feels disruptive to me in some way, even though I'm the one usually doing it). Thus, this thread.

Make use of it liberally with any questions, notes, or concerns about the current thread that you may have.

Thread.

Should I say if I fall ill or something? And am unable to post for whatever reason?

NO WHY WOULD WE CARE ABOUT THAT GEEZ

Yeah, sure, this'd be a good place for that sort of thing, too.

Opened the new thread. This first part of the new thread is hopefully more of just an introduction, to let people confirm what characters are there, and all that. I don't really want to RP fixing the airplane. That'd be mundane. Instead, I figure we sort of establish who's there, give the opportunity for any more wander-up characters to be like "hay wassup kin I advenchur with u lol" (hopefully more articulately), and then launch into the next sequence with considerably more Sonic-style run-and-fight-fun-action.

Also, look for a mystery boss appearance this thread. And it'll be credible. Not a walking chicken boat.

DO NOT BE AFEARED CITIZENS. I am not away, I am going to have Tails say something conscientiously over-informative at some point soon once he's tested the plane electronics. In the mean time other people can actually get to post now.

Guess who's writing through their PS3! Yeah, turns out my virus isn't completely gone after all. Hey, if I--


...hold up, it just started up again.

...

Well, whatever. I'll leave this thread here anyway. I have a feeling this isn't over yet.

Been out of commission with food poisoning, or a stomach virus, or something of the sort. I'll try to squeeze some posts out, but bear with me.

What day would be best for you guys to do an actual RP night? Like, sometime when we can all get together in the chat and have some continuous posting and fun stuff like that. I know some of us actually do stuff on the weekends occasionally, but if there's a Friday, Saturday or Sunday evening when nobody's busy, I was thinking it'd be cool.

Thaaat used to be Tuesday evening, but now that class is out of session and Summer Break is up, I'm potentially open to schedule changes at random. But as long as it's not too early, I should be able to work my way around with whatever day somebody else might choose.

Forgot to mention it outright anyway, but for the record, if anybody thought we were having an RP night this week, consider it canceled. Too much stuff going on, and I'd rather not blast ahead and leave Greens helplessly behind just because his computer's all screwed inside-out.

EDIT: Cancel what I said about potentially doing next Friday. Gonna have Ben and Rachel over!

I'm exciiiiiited!

Okay, to doubly reiterate, here's the deal with the rest of this week:

- Greens' computer is still down and out. No estimation on when he'll be able to post regularly again.
- Thursday, Mie and I are gonna be busy for much of the day.
- Friday & Saturday, we'll have Ben & Rachel over. 99% chance I won't find time to post, and neither will Mie.


That said, don't expect the RP to move until Sunday at the earliest. Don't watch it like a hawk and expect anything to happen; just mosey along and enjoy your day, chill in the chat, or whatever. In the immortal words of Chief Strong...

At times like this, kids like you should be playing Nintendo games.

Update. Ben and Rachel's van broke down in D.C. and now we have no definite idea when they'll be arriving, but it's doubtful it'll be this week. As such I will probably be around this weekend. If anybody else is too, I'll see what I can do post-wise.

I think I'm one of few people around here who's had the misfortune of doing any work around loading bays of any kind, so the illustration of the environment in the current thread was unclear for those of you who are white collar pencil-pushers, schoolboys, and women. Thus, I went googling for a picture of a building that would have a good, manly loading bay with the basic structure of the one Silver Sonic has been beating the crap out of everyone at.

So, just throw this into a hyper-industrial Eggman factory city, make it less old and decrepit, and give it garage doors instead of regular doors, and you've got the structure they've been fighting in front of.




To have an idea of what the door is like, there's always this. But, this bay is not long enough for the illustration's purposes, sadly. Just... mentally combine the length and size of the above with the door and improved modernity of the below.
