I don't want to say anything to them. Just let them come to us. I had a feeling that it would be a slow start... but in any case we will move on.

-edit-
Hey Blackbird, is your RP buddy still interested? I might try to convince a friend to get into this too, but my friends are the kind of people who make fun or our kind. I'm a closet RPer because of that. :P

I think I'll put a link to this on my signature and then start commenting in random places in the forums too.
“I have wrestled with death. It is the most unexciting contest you can imagine. It takes place in an impalpable greyness, with nothing underfoot, with nothing around, without spectators, without clamour, without glory, without the great desire of victory, without the great fear of defeat, in a sickly atmosphere of tepid scepticism, without much belief in your own right, and still less in that of your adversary.”
― Joseph Conrad

Yep. It gives me time to finish things anyway.

I just have to remember to bump the RPers Wanted from time to time so that people will find us. We won't be in the Newest Roleplays for much longer. Although I think we'll still be in the "open roleplays" front page.

-edit-

My RP buddy will be joining us. I expect him to put up a character if not today, tomorrow.

*sigh*

That's why I have minions. They frequently come in so handy.

Actually, I have my game table that I bribe with cookies, but it all comes to the same end, right?

Oh, hey Seerow! You're here! ^_^


Kinda distracted with my sheets, so if anyone has a character ready for approval at any time, give me a shout so I can go look at it. :)

No more character's to approve, just trying to decide how I want to introduce them into the world. I want to strike the right tone, you know? And it's either this, or sit around eating all the left over cookies.

Yum . . . . cookies.

I've got tons of homework this week so I really have no time to really dedicate myself. I'll put Lamya up, but that's it. I presume it will be up in a couple of minutes time.

Just so you know the miseries that I face, I have a lab due tomorrow, an essay on a very complicated topic due on Thursday and then on Friday, a big test. I don't know how my teachers expect me to hand in quality work with such deadlines!

Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles... wait, did someone else say cookies before me? Darn it!

Lamya is accepted. I'm keeping the other guy on ice until you finish editing his sheet, but there's no rush there. :)

Hum... I had work to do today, but I kind of didn't...

I might not be very active in here tomorrow. Heh.

Well, we just lost our place on the newest roleplay tab. Should we employ more devious means of getting recruits?

*eats all the cookies*

Uh... I think we need more. :/

I was checking the site front page to see if we we're still on there (we are)... And I saw Shadows of The Past as number 6 on the Longest Roleplays list. How cool is that? ^_^

Well, we're still on the site front page, and on the first page of the active roleplays list. And there the epic rpers wanted thread of awesomeness (wtf was I thinking with this title?)

We just have to be patient. =_=

Er, DMs? *Waves arms.* I think I may have found something that's turning people away. You're character sheets are in a particular OOC thread. Which is fine and I see no problem with it... save for the fact you didn't mention that in the intro anywhere. <.<
You do mention to check the OOC, but you fail to mention that's where the application sheets are hanging.
This may turn folks away whom are not super heavy into clicking possibly through four OOC threads to try and find them. Granted they're not hidden, but I know if it was me, I would assume you either:
A. Want to use the standard sheets or
B. Are not ready just yet.

Okies, I added links to the intro page, as well as the first post of this thread.

That should do it, I guess.

To be honest, we do have more than enough characters to go, but... It'd be nice to have new people nonetheless. ^_^

Let's see how it goes. :)

I agree, we could really go if we so please, but it's always fun to play with new faces. You learn more that way. I still have a ton of character I want to make myself, but they can be made as they are introduced if need be. I'm just so swamped right now.
I'm trying to reread the entire novella that my essay is about to get good quotes from it, but I'm a slow reader so it will take me a while to do that. Then there's the writing that will take up my day. I've also learnt that I will be spending my weekend doing play stuff. Then next week, I'll be starting a new essay... It's hell I tell you! In it's purest form.
