There's my post... I didn't interact with anyone else because I thought it'd be really forced/awkward. I didn't write Jaden yet because I really didn't know what to do with him other than write him getting off the bus and brooding somewhere, so yeah.


Haha, I love Justin already.

Yeah, I feel you. The start of threads are so hard, because every interaction DOES feel forced at some point. I get you.

It's also a pretty big pet peeve of mine to stick characters in ongoing interactions.

Holy crap, right? It's another reason why I hate starts of a thread. You either enter an interaction between two other players, and turn it into an awful three way conversation, or you're just alone for a bit.

I'm probably going to start liberally using non-bio NPCs in order in a bit. I was hoping to post pone it a bit, but I might need to. @Animera hasn't had anyone interact with her, although Shayne and Nico might.

Hey guys, my PC crashed. I'm getting the problem fixed now. I should be able to get on to where I can post easily by later tonight or tomorrow morning. Sorry @rbwls8028 and @Orange Juice if it takes me a little while to post. I will post ASAP.

Also, @rbwls8028, if Orange Juice hasn't posted when I get back on, I'll go ahead and post with Caleb so you have a post to respond to.

@Sightles Got a few more questions about things for ya, if that's ok! :)

1. Do you have to use pictures of real people or other "realistic" pictures for OC's?

2. Taking the current speed of the roleplay into consideration, would you accept a roleplayer who posts just once or twice a week (and is unable to be here on Saturdays due to work most of the time)?

3. What is currently going on right now, since things have moved forward pretty quick by this point? XD

1. Absolutely not! I nearly used a drawing for the picture of one of my bios. Anything is free game.

2. Absolutely. I would prefer if we crafted a sidestory storyline for your character, but I'd be more than happy to have you a long. due to the nature of your posting, it may be difficult to interact with some of the other players, but I'm prepared to take steps to make sure your character still has an impact on the story.

3. As of right now, the campers are pretty much just interacting with one another, and Mr Allen J and Aluminumdude are by themselves. I think DrowsyPangolin and Natural Mess are with Animera. Pretty much nothing truly significant has happened besides chosing bunk mates and basic introductions.

I'm still interested, but waiting for the time to strike.


Okay, awesome. Definitely do not want you to drop the thread because of lack of action. Would you like me to use NPCs to help move your characters along, or do you prefer to wait longer? It's whatever you're comfortable with doing. I just want to make sure I keep you engaged enough. :)

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

I will be back on late tonight. I will most likely post then.

Sorry. Had some things come up last night, and it prevented me from getting back on. Going to work on my posts now.

@Mr Allen J Okay, awesome. I'll work on the NPC, and get you going. It may take me a bit longer, but I'll have it up before too long. :)

Or, @Mr Allen J, and @AluminumDude. The two of you could possibly interact, if you wanted to. I just now noticed that Aluminum Dude had posted and his character was looking around the same area Justin Liao was in.

Not for sure which you guys wanna do. If you would rather still go with the NPC idea, Allen J, I'll be game for that, or if you'd prefer to interact with Markus Roe. It's whatever you'd rather do.

Hey @Animera. It looks like @DrowsyPangolin is addressing your character.

@Sightles Hey, Sorry. I'm around. I read your post. I'm quite stumped in terms of where to go from here. Seems like our part (counselors) of the post are going slower than others (campers) in terms of time frame.

Should we skip to campfire timeline after my greeting session?

Sorry I didn't post yet, I was just trying to come up with the sensible way of approaching @AluminumDude's character. Well, I could just cheese it and have him bump into him, or use the equal copout of "I should make friends!"

I was thinking about doing that. Was going to do the greeting, and then probably make a big post about time passing. Going to let some of the other interactions play out some more.

If you'd like to, you can wait until I timeskip us to the campfire. It shouldn't take too much long for everyone to get to a good stopping point for me to advance a few hours.

@Sightles My goodness! I must say your sincerity and kindness in all of this is winning me over! XD But if once or twice a week posting on my end would be ok with you, Sightles, then i might just join this RP to be honest.

If i make a couple of OC's for this roleplay, though, would you have preferences for if they are campers or counselors?

It's no problem! You have nothing to be sorry for! Glad you're back.

Honestly, I don't have a real preference. I want the members of the thread to play roles they'll truly enjoy, before they meet any specific quota I have. I can tell you that we are lacking a girl counselor. Otherwise, whatever role you end up picking, is fine with me! As long as you guys are having fun, I'm having fun.

It also seems like the thread speed has died down to a speed that would be much better for you. While it's still faster than a couple posts a week, it won't be so fast that you miss 20 some posts or something. :)

@Orange Juice @rbwls8028 I'm going to post later tonight, about 10:00pm CST. I would right now, but I am about to head out with a couple of friends. Will post as soon as I get back.
