[OOC] The Gladiators of Arlen

[CollectorOfMyst]

Oh, I never meant you had to get a sheet in by then. Just that you needed to have told me you wanted to join. And I have spotted you once or twice; but I'd thought you'd left. So don't rush your character; there will be a good amount of time for you to get it all in, with what I have planned.

On note of work, though, I won't be available tomorrow morning or Thursday morning, since I'm doing a small course on technology. I'm still waiting on whether or not I'll be there afternoons, but until tomorrow, this is goodbye.

Groovy, another redshirt grand gladiator gallantly galloping into grandiose glory.

In other news, I'm looking forward to first impressions between each of the characters, things could certainly go different ways, far as I see it.

@Eisenhorn

*snickers* Oh I know I am. I'm planning on making someone turn red. :p

@Kymera

I certainly have no possible idea who you would be having go beet red. Nope, no idea what so ever.

@Eisenhorn

I may already have something to say about SOMEONE'S hammer. *cough cough*

@Kymera

Ask nicely, and someone may very well drop the hammer.

@Eisenhorn

And how nicely would someone have to ask to see someone swing it around?

This is also more fun than it should be. Can't wait for Wednesday now.

@Kymera

See, swinging takes effort, swinging costs extra. Discounts are available for members of certain gladiatorial teams though.

Agreed, reminds me of some RP's that have these "Character reacts to everyone else" things, where before hand folks give their characters opinions on each other character. More commonplace for those that have some preset or prior grouping before writing starts proper. Wednesday shall be a good day though, regardless.

@Eisenhorn

It's been my experience that there's this sweet spot of planning and spontaneous writing that makes for the best story-telling.

And not to worry about putting in too much effort. Wouldn't want anyone getting tired too early >;D

@Kymera

It is a good balance to have, gives some extra flavor before the interesting and entertaining spontaneity.

And I wouldn't worry too much, high endurance has everything covered!

@Innis@Ammokkx@Eisenhorn@Enzayne and @Kymera - Just thought I'd inform you all that with the withdrawal of Zero, I'll be starting the IC on Wednesday. I'll ask you to wait until three posts are up, since me and Innis have been working on that third one together.

@CollectorOfMyst

Wait, why three? Are you going to post twice in a row? Isn't that a little bit of a waste of space? There's lines to separate posts.

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Ammokkx Well, previous experience has taught me that these posts could actually be quite long on the page. However, if you object, it can be changed. There's a measure of flexibility.

Just checking in on all of you before I have to leave for the morning... Kymera and Eisenhorn seem to be getting on well.

[Ammokkx]

@Ammokkx Well, previous experience has taught me that these posts could actually be quite long on the page. However, if you object, it can be changed. There's a measure of flexibility.

@CollectorOfMyst

Having two separate posts is arguably longer because you're adding signature and banner space. The amount of text and reading you have to do doesn't really change at all.

Iunno, might just be me getting anal over small stuff again. ^{_{I feel like I've been doing nothing but complaining ;w;}}

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Ammokkx If you've been complaining, then rightly so. There are times that I haven't been exactly clear in my posts, but the reason for there being two/three posts is because of the change in perspective. The first post is from Endar's view, the second is from Alia's view, and the third is a collaborative post where the two of them both have their perspectives of the situation. Which is something I will be asking everyone to do at some point in time - but, because every time a new person comes into the IC, there may be more information that everyone else needs to take into account, is why I'm asking people to wait - as the current post contains nothing of other characters, and at this point may be a little difficult to incorporate.

@CollectorOfMyst

That makes much more sense, thanks for clearing that up. If that's what you meant, then it makes perfect sense for it being three posts.

[Innis]

I wasn't quite clear on the three posts thing, so I've already edited the part with both of our perspectives into Alia's post, just with all your writing in yellow. Is that okay?

[CollectorOfMyst]

@Innis The two posts is fine, but don't worry about the colour for what I wrote - just put it in white. Just use fff79a for his speech and I'll be fine.

[Innis]

Hahaha okay. That shouldn't be difficult to change.

[Sisyphus]

Man, I somehow just saw this, and it looks pretty cool. Just wanted to aske before I went through and read the entire OOC, is this still accepting last-minute submissions? If so, I can definitely get one in tonight.

@Sisyphus

According to the GM, as long as you mention interest before Wednesday you've got a little extra time to make a sheet.

Oh, I never meant you had to get a sheet in by then. Just that you needed to have told me you wanted to join. And I have spotted you once or twice; but I'd thought you'd left. So don't rush your character; there will be a good amount of time for you to get it all in, with what I have planned.
