~And the flood gates have been opened.

Sure. The more the merrier.

Actually, I would not advise any more people to join. Nine separate stories is a whole lot to follow, read, and so on--particularly for our compendium keeper. I won't deny anyone who wants to join, but I'm not relishing the idea of open invitations either.

On another note, the most recent post with Kalok just screamed the 'Saruman and the Uruk-hai' scene from Lord of the Rings. Was this evocation intentional?

Yep, I even lifted part of the line because I'm a bit of a LOTR nerd

Well, good thing I don't have any friends, or I would've invited some. Yay for being sad and lonely.

At only 3 or 4 posts on a good day I still think we have room, but since everyone else seems to disagree I suppose we won't do any invitations.

I turn my back for a day and this happens?!

It's great. We've now got significantly more normal players than GMs, which seems to be a good balance. But I'm a bit apprehensive about inviting even more people here. I am often busy, so I struggle to keep up with posting amidst all the GMing and compendium keeping. And at the size of post we see here, 3-4 posts a day is a lot of text.

Also, thanks to everyone who writes their own compendium entries. It is very helpful.

@R4inator, your first post was not too long. But I would like to point out that building a giant sky fortress and throwing around massive bolts of lightning will definitely attract the attention of the nearby town you mentioned. This town would either send their own armed forces to investigate or, if they are too small, they would alert the city of Serenus, which lies around 180km south of your current location (if your 'small town' is Serenus, then you have a strange sense of distance). Despite appearances, they can still gather an army, likely containing many spell-casters. Try to incorporate this into your upcoming posts.

P.S. Quote of the day, from Jay. I laughed when I read this.

Why is everyone going for volcano bases in the first place? Those things are known to explode on occasion you know.

Dr Trapezoid, I would like you to clarify something. Is your latest creation a Construct or a modification to your Avatar? It's written as a modification to your Avatar, but you labelled it earlier as Construct when you started it.
Regardless, it is good. I'm sensing some essence of GLaDOS in there, although whether that is a coincidence or not I'm not sure.

Well, that's the great conundrum of it all. I took the three posts of constructing a construct, but in the end, its really just a modification to my Keeper.
also, hadn't thought of the GLaDOS thing. I was inspired more by a piece of art I once saw on DeviantArt, I'll see if I can find it again later.

It confused me as well, but the modification explanation in the hider cleared it up for me.

EDIT: Unless that construct is part of him.

EDIT#2: Just realized what I've said is redundant. Merp. -.-

Nah. For all intents and purposes, you can consider previous Viktor gone forever, replaced by the new and improved Viktor, yours for just two easy payments of $19.99, plus shipping and handling! Plus, if you buy one now, you can get a second one for free!
I'm sorry. I got a bit carried away there.

"KILL IT WITH FIRE!" - Bulma, TFS Abridged

So you originally intended it to be a Construct, but it turned out to be something different. Fair enough.

There, made my first post as keeper.

EDIT: Now I'm off to bed.

Muahahahaha, the 100th IC post is mine! I award myself with billions of dollars and infinite girlfriends.

dont want to imagine this with more people, i must admit getting through text walls gets repetitive fast, i love the seven horsemen of the apocalypse side story Lube has going on though, action all over the place.

Lube!? Never could I imagine a more humiliating yet arousing faux pas of my name. Thank you though.

On the subject of text walls, I do think everyone should make an effort to read them all. If you don't bother reading other peoples' hard work, why should they be bothered to read yours?

My excuse for my wall of text is that I'm trying to make up for lost time. Downside of this is that it can take some time when I make that size of post.

im just saying with this sort of posting if we had more people it would be the equivalent of reading a book with every page being a separate chapter that almost doesn't connect to any other chapter in the book, i admire the way people can write up so much at once but maybe theres a bit too much exposition sometimes, unnecessary exposition. im not trying to start any fights or anything just trying to be active on the rp

Do you think my posts get too lengthy at times? I probably could condense them, but I always feel like it's choppy and without enough detail if I do that.

Hm. Now I'm conflicted. I've been struggling to make my posts large and detailed, simply to fit in with everyone...
