Now no one else has an excuse. Get to posting people

@FantasyChic

What she said!

[Lord Wraith]

Also I will be enforcing the rules this round because I don't want a stagnant RP. This means that when ten days have passed since the last GM post (which was two days ago as of now leaving 8 days on your timer) and you have not posted, you're out no excuses.

[FantasyChic]

I would tag people but, again, I got yelled at for doing that last time (our co-GM remembers that, yes?) Looks like you may need to recruit more soon.

[Hillan]

Well, I'll post on Sunday.

(Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.)

@FantasyChic

We're halfway through the allowed posting period, and half our cast has posted. We're on track. Just try not to worry; the RP doesn't rely on a large roster to succeed, and we can afford to lose some of the extra bulk if required.

There are enough of us posting that the RPs future shouldn't be a concern for you. Just keep ensuring your own posts are in on time, and let the others worry about themselves. I say this selfishly, because you aren't on the list of characters that I'd like to see fall behind..!

@Tyler I've been a part of Wraith's RPs too many times that when I see this I immediately assume it's going to be the end. I'm still bummed about the X-Men RP we did because I was having a lot of fun, only to have that taken from me. So naturally I go on the offensive when I see something faltering because I am just plain tired of good RPs dying because no one has the decency to at least post that they aren't interested anymore or that they are busy IRL and can't get to a post.

Well I mean, ultimately, roleplaying is a collaborative medium. You're always going to work with other people, and those other people might not have the means or interest to post as frequently or regularly as you might like. That's just the nature of writing as part of a roleplay. I've found that it's a lot more enjoyable to stop getting angry about it, take a rack off, and just enjoy things as they come. Each post is an outlet for me to play with an idea, and ultimately it doesn't matter how quickly we reach the 'end' - or if we even get there. The sooner you find fun in the actual process of writing vs. 'roleplaying', the sooner you'll have a much easier time. Because then it becomes "Hey, cool, I get to write" vs. "Ugh, why is everyone slowing me down".

Do you write independently at all? Roleplaying for me is primarily a way for me to get some social interaction from an otherwise isolating hobby, but it's also a great opportunity to explore themes/ideas before using them in my own independent work. It's something to consider.

[FantasyChic]

@Tyler I do write independently. I mainly use this as a hobby, like you said. It's something to help get my creative juices flowing.

[Lord Wraith]

I have tests for the next three days so I will try to move us along come Friday.

@Dusksong

Everything is proceeding with my previous post and you should be able to expect a new post by late tomorrow.

[Lord Wraith]

Post is going to be up tomorrow likely. Sorry for the delay everyone.

[Tyler]

I couldn't ask on Skype since the company very conveniently won't allow me to sign in via iOS, but I just wanted to ask where we were at. Tomorrow will be my very last chance to post for a little while so was hoping I would get the opportunity.

@Tyler

I suppose you would wanna get a post in before dropping off the face of the earth.

To, you know, save face.

@Tyler

Will try to get it up tonight. If not it'll be up tomorrow morning my time. Apologies to everyone, past couple days have been busier than anticipated.
