[OOC] Broken Skies: War in the Eversky

[Bazmund]

Brief update - added vietmyke and Deadnaut, the first two applicants, as co-GMs. The understanding we have is that they're both very busy, and so will not be able to take on the full duties of a Co-GM, but can help with the managerial aspect.

[CollectorOfMyst]

Sooo... is nobody else going to update the IC/make an OOC comment, or what?

[Deos Morran]

@CollectorOfMyst Well I guess I was a few minutes late to hitting enter. I blame the show I'm watching. It's making things last longer.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Deos Morran Well, I suppose there was that. I was sort of worried that the RP had died and I hadn't realised... and I've been checking pretty much all day. A testament to the fact that I have too much time on my hands.

[Bazmund]

@CollectorOfMyst Estoy lo mismo, amigo. I was worried people had forgotten about it.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@CollectorOfMyst Estoy lo mismo, amigo.

@Bazmund

The only word I understand in this sentence is friend. I should know more since I took Spanish in Year 9, but I don't.

[vietmyke]

I was pretty surprised with the posting speed of day 1, to be honest.

[Deos Morran]

I wouldn't say that it's dead, just that a few of us are having some internal conflicts due to OOC interactions and it's causing a drop in pace for us.

[Bazmund]

@CollectorOfMyst "I am the same, friend."
@vietmyke Mhm. It is a sad thing.
@Deos Morran Those who feel victimised should make their concerns known, for the benefit of the RP as a whole. We have a GM and 2 kinda-Co-GMs to talk to about these things, there has to be somebody with whom you're on decent terms to discuss it with.

[Deos Morran]

@Bazmund True but at this stage it's mostly been petty things so they've voted to keep it quiet for now. With luck it's just a bad first impression and we can go on to do awesome things later on. It's just the initial push of that "first impression" that is weighing as of now. Don't worry about it and I'm sure it will blow over. If it doesn't we'll make a note.

EDIT: In the mean time will there be games on the team's airship? I WANNA PLAY GAMES!

[Bazmund]

@Deos Morran If you bring them, probably. The IRIO doesn't stock it with much more than the necessities - tinned foods, water, some backup weapons and munitions, fuel, that sort of thing. Flares too and vital mission equipment obviously.

[Deos Morran]

@Bazmund That's dumb-ness... We need more games and entertainment. On the flip side... Many good games can be made with simple tools... and booze.

@Deos Morran@deadnaut@vietmyke@13org@CollectorOfMyst@13900IpForThis

Once the briefing is over, you'll all go back to your rooms with the understanding that you'll be leaving at dawn in the morning - I feel it only fair to warn you that something will happen preventing this, causing us to leave much, much earlier.

[CollectorOfMyst]

Still waiting on @deadnaut, @13org, @13900IpForThis and maybe @vietmyke to add to the IC...

[13org]

@CollectorOfMyst
Deos posted yesterday, ill have my post done today.
Don't worry.

[Bazmund]

@CollectorOfMyst Yeah I know. Just trying to find an incentive for people to post, really. I get the impression that this RP is gonna have a slight action/spy movie feel to it, in between the inevitably tricky journeys between the three nations, so I think we should have our first taste of action in the morning.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Bazmund Indeed we should. I'm curious to see what in particular will force us to leave earlier than we intended to.

[Deadnaut]

@Bazmund

I'll try to throw up a post today, but I'll be moving out of my dorm early tomorrow so part of today will be spent getting stuff ready to roll so it may not be my best work

[Bazmund]

@Deadnaut Don't worry too much about post length. As someone who writes fiction habitually, I personally value the quality of a post and how well it continues the flow of the overall narrative far above the length and volume of what is divulged within it. Take your time and don't worry too much about deadlines, since you're moving about presently.

@CollectorOfMyst Take a wild guess, amigo.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Bazmund I feel like Roald Dahl wrote a book on them. (A subtle clue goes here.)
