Due to how long it takes for posts to be made, I've decided to change up the way posting order works:

Instead of a specific order, everyone will be able to post once at whatever time is available, as long as everyone gets a turn. I will post at the bottom/top of each order, signaling when everyone is able to make their next post.

Questions?

Walt, if you posted, I think the site ate it.

As for everyone else, make sure your next post is in the dining room.

Seriously? Gorramit!!!! *Sigh* I can't fix and repost until at the earliest tomorrow, possibly Saturday. I'm so very sorry. My character wandered off from the group to find the library, anyway, so just go on without me until I can find out what happened.


Edit: If you want me to change it when I can get on a computer so that he doesn't go to the library but goes to the dining room, I will.

Either works, and I hope you don't hate me for moving the rp along without you D:

No, this kind of thing happens sometimes and I don't want to slow things down. Probably tomorrow afternoon I can get on. Right now, I can see my post, I posted with the location being the library, but if no one else can, I'll see what I can do for a fix.

I get the bad feeling that my character will be one of the first to either go mad or die. He does seem the type and has few applicable skills if things start getting heavy.

@Walt: just means more fun :D

@everyone: Alright, I don't like moving on without people, but I don't want the story to get snagged when more than half of the group is good to go. I'll give it another hour, and then I'll post.

I'll edit my post so that he'll leave the page for later so the two characters in the library go to the dining room.

Okay, my deepest apologies. I can't do this anymore. I've got National Novel Writing Month and an essay due next month, plus my band, plus trying to write some pieces for other projects. I can't keep up with this RP's pace. I fold. Do what you will with Fr Darrow.

I'm sorry about that, but I did wait 3 days before starting the new round. I don't mean to leave anyone in the dust, but it isn't really fair to make everyone wait repeatedly for one or two people. If the group was smaller, it wouldn't be an issue. I hope maybe in the future you can rejoin us though, since you seemed like a great, competent rper.

I'm sorry Fish, but I think I'm going to have to fold my cards too.. It's not that I hate this rp or anything, because I would kill to be in one like this again. I just have a lot of school/family issues right now that I have to address before I'm allowed to write anything more. Again, I'm sorry, but I do hope to be in one of your rp's in the future! Goodbye everyone, and please don't hold too many grudges against me.

I'm sorry, not to be mean or anything but I don't quite get what pace some people expect. Sure, not everyone can post 10 times a day or even twice a day, but once a day isn't too huge of stretch imo(unless school and life get you dragged down), but once every FEW days is more than enough time in a group RP(1x1's are different) so yeah, to me the pace of this RP is actually kinda slow & steady, not fast. lol

But anyways, I hope this doesn't die...I really hate that RP's fall apart so quickly on here =( >.<

No no, its fine! I understand that real life is a little more important than roleplay. Just a little.

I thought once every three days would be enough, but no one has posted in the new round yet, and that bugs me a little. I feel like this rp might die anyways, and that's really disappointing because I thought that I had a nice thing plotted out.

Meh C'est La Vie with RPG.com......
It has nada to do with your plot an everything to do with the RPG.com curse that causes RP's to die in flocks around here! haha. Some RPers get busy, some have super-short attention spans, some wanna start/focus-on their own RP's - like Lovebird, and etc.

Whatever reason(s) a RP dies quickly it's not always the GM's fault....unless they're one of the ones to vanish! lol


All you can do is message people and remind them to post =)
