Same here

One nice thing about play by post is that it is fairly easy to run the game even when the PCs split up. I'll just split my posts into a different section for each group when necessary.

Can I make my anticlimactic entrance here?

I'm gonna assume yes since I could appear anytime anyway.

I'm in, get a new comp tomorrow.

Perhaps I should note that while I cannot post as frequently as normal right now, I should still be able to manage at least a post a day usually. This game doesn't need to be frozen.

I'd be posting more if I were interacting with anyone.

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Fri Feb 26, 2010 5:04 am

Wait, you joined the game?

[reads several posts]

Oh, snap! Well, okay. I will compose a plot hook or interaction revealing existing ones for you during my next dedicated time block. In the meantime, this is an opportunity for anyone who hasn't posted in a week to stay in the game. There is another goon to recruit if you wish to go haring off after one of the targets mentioned so far.

I'm just wondering which wizard we're going to or what the fuck.

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Fri Feb 26, 2010 6:35 am

The PCs have been offered two options. One is a necromancer and a jerk and the other may be incompetent and/or pathetically weak.

EDIT:
if further clarification is needed before YOU, yes YOU specifically, decide where to go, please inform me.

I think I'm with Quantum and virgileso now. I don't even know.

You're with Quantum and Akula. You guys just kept some collectors from killing each other over a corpse. I briefly introduced myself via telepathy and then went after the guy who ran from the altercation in the alley. The collectors seem to be stabilized for the moment, and I'm having a chat with the guy who ran off right now.

Gunna go with the pathetically weak one. Can we fast forward to meeting him?

Sure. I'll address that right after GoA in my next big post, probably Thursday or Friday at the latest.

------------------------------------

I've done the first couple of my tests, and should be able to resume my normal post frequency in a few days. There's a midterm next week, but that's done like homework. I doubt I'll have much chance to post anything significant tomorrow or Wednesday.

Operation: Small Talk meets with catastrophic failure. Chaos be praised. ^_^

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Mon Mar 08, 2010 10:49 pm

Gah. Whenever I have a block of time, either the forum is down or I have a test tomorrow. Do we want to stick around at the tavern until the dialogue there is finished or have the rest of group 2 go off to see the wizard and let whatever PCs are left behind catch up after they finish their conversation?

Either way, I'll have some time for significant posts Wednesday if the boards are up.

Jilocasin · Post by **Jilocasin** » Mon Mar 08, 2010 11:52 pm

I'm hoping to catch up with Quantum, Akula, and Mask. Maybe try and convince them to check out the Pyres.

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Tue Mar 09, 2010 1:00 am

That could work out pretty easily. You are at most a few blocks away, and they didn't move off immediately.

There are a number of things in the Pyres that might be of interest, though the area isn't considered part of the Grey District. I have a number of encounters that would normally take place in or near there.

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 3:46 am

Are people waiting on a post from me? I'm not sure.

Also, blerg. I seem to have come down with an unpleasant case of bronchitis. My immune system is fairly good, and combined with sleep and orange juice, I think I'll fight it off reasonably quickly. But that doesn't make it any less irking in the here and now.

God_of_Awesome · Post by **God_of_Awesome** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 3:48 am

I am not doing anything right now so I'm just waiting for a chance to change that.

Quantumboost · Post by **Quantumboost** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 4:22 am

My doing things at the moment is contingent on either Mask leading us onward into bloodshed or something else happening.

Jilocasin · Post by **Jilocasin** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 5:23 am

Alright, I'm going to go and try and find Mask, Quantum, and Akula. Also, I'm just going to assume that I find them to move things along.

Avoraciopoctules · Post by **Avoraciopoctules** » Mon Mar 29, 2010 5:50 pm

I'd like to apologize for not posting recently. I've been pretty busy and have been putting this game off until I am less so. Presently, I have 2 hours cut out of my normal free time each weekday and will be spending next week in the desert where I doubt I will have Internet access. After that, I should have considerably more time to spend on this game.

God_of_Awesome · Post by **God_of_Awesome** » Sat Apr 10, 2010 7:46 pm

So, what happened?

With me personally?

I got back home last night. After vaguely catching up on what was going on in the Internet, I talked to Akula for a while and then got 6 hours of sleep. About 10 hours ago I showered and got most of the desert grime off. I then caught up with a few other things, played Persona 4 for a while, convinced my sister to try playing a game of Dominions 3 with me at some point, and got a haircut. Though I had early dinner right before the haircut, I picked up a pizza for my father, since he isn't feeling very mobile at the moment. I went for a brief walk / jog shortly after getting home.

Presently, I am sitting with my sister and father, watching Silence of the Lambs and eating delicious Zachary's Pizza (digesting now that I finish this post). I think he has forgotten about the old injuries in his leg and the recent knife wound to his hand for the time being. Life is fairly good, and I expect that I will have a post in the IC thread before too terribly long.

I remember Group 2 is dressing like prostitutes and a pimp right? I don't suppose Baldraxe could try disguising himself in a gimp costume could he?
