I'm using my younger brother's computer, but I've got limited access.DarkRecon, can you locate Griffith Observatory? I can't update the map because I'm in Invermere, and I likely won't be back home until Sunday.

sorry. I just assumed it was there since you told me about it. Besides, Vixen ain't staying there long. Just trying to figure out if she's going by copter or hummer.

I actually thought hummer since someone here has a character out in the city somewhere...they could possibly meet.

To answer your question Wiki, yes my character is with Freelancer's.

Cool, then I assume you are in the bathroom with him about to have a private conversation before my character walked in. I just needed to make sure before I post. :)

I'd suggest, for Gabe, a crowbar, an expandable baton, or a seriousasfuck combat knife.

Okay, I gotta edit my post because I missed the part about them being in the woman's bathroom XD sorry :P

EDIT: I have edited my post. You guys can respond instead of editing your posts because that is just a pain.

DarkRecon, remember to use Google Maps if you're not sure which route your character is going to take. Use it for looking up directions, locations, and photos. Remember, use the link for Google Maps, not the RP map.

Looking it up myself, it'd take about 30-60 minutes to drive there and about 5 hours to walk there in normal conditions. Considering the outbreak and chaos in LA, multiply that by 2, so about 1-2 hours by car and 10 hours walking.

Don't zip through it, because if you do, I'm not going to let you RP here any more. I want people here to take time to get a feel for the LA area. For reference, try to imagine that 1-5 minutes elapse between each post, so if you REALLY want to go all the way to LA International, that'd be about 12-24 posts minimum by driving and 120 posts walking.

Chances are, you don't want to waste that many posts on just getting there, so I'd recommend going off that course and going around different parts of LA. There's already enough people at LA International, and I can look stuff up for everyone if they don't feel like doing that work themselves.

Holy dang. Looks like nearly EVERYONE is in the bathroom.

Yeah, but everyone is in one. It's just funny to me.

Ok. Yeah that makes sense. I was never good with the "travel" system so this could be a good reference post for me. Shivershiver also had a character in the city limits from what I saw...though I have yet to see a post from him.

But yeah, I might just do the hummer escort since I can say that the nearst chopper was at LAX but it's being used to track two escapee's from the airport. Still Wayne, I'm just drawing blanks on what direction to send Vixen in. Worse case, you can "puppet" her travel schedule if you have to.

[shivershiver]

Boom, posted. I've been trying to keep it at a relatively slow pace, since it looks like I'm lone wolfing it right now. By the way, Santa Monica Autoworks is a real location if you want to look it up and see where your character is relative to mine. I've been using google maps to navigate through LA since I'm not a local, and use the walking time given from destination to destination, so I should be fairly accurate regarding positioning. I am confused about the time changing, however. If 1-5 minutes passes between posts, then that would mean 48 minutes to 4 hours have passed. Not saying this is flawed, though, just wanna make sure I'm semi-correct.

Back home from my weekend in Invermere.

I want to say you're all doing really well with what little info I've given. I've wanted to see how well people could do with nothing more than the info I've given, so that I don't have to dictate things too much. However, I've been worrying a bit about how this RP's going to fare, so I'd like to ask just one thing of you all. As GM, I'm not just a referee. If you need or simply just want anything, I'm your go-to guy, and I also want you guys to post in this thread and contact me and other players every now and then. I want to keep things lively here.

@DarkRecon: It's all just for rough reference. You don't need to follow it like it'll kill you if you don't. Just do whatever seems to be the most reasonable. I'm willing to help you with keeping track of your character's location too, and I'll be adding Griffith Observatory to the map.

@shivershiver: No worries. Lone-wolfing it might actually be better, since you would have all the freedom to play around with your character's surroundings without having to worry about waiting on another player. Your sense of location and how you describe what's around your character is great, and you don't need to worry too much about that frame of reference I gave if it's going to hinder your writing.

@Everyone at LAX: I want to be laid-back with this RP, and I don't want to dictate what players do too much. If anarchy is wanted, there shall be anarchy. Let the chaos commence.

[Kilune]

Just to verify... Gabriel IS in the bathroom with Myztii and Joe right?

[Wayne]

@Kilune: That's what I figured.

[Kilune]

Okay great, cause I'd hate to have to rewrite this post lol

[Kilune]

Brain is on the fog tonight! Meant to post IC not OOC! Sorry *Edit*

[Wayne]

Did you mean to post that in the IC?

I need to go to bed now, so good night, and I'll answer your inquiries tomorrow.

[Kilune]

Ah bonkers.... -_-

[Playerpvbm]

Wayne, you said that there's no actual outbreak in the airport, correct? Does that mean you aren't planning on having the infected wander in at any point?

[shivershiver]

Oh man, I sure hope he doesn't toss that flash grenade. Everyone in the bathroom would be deaf for weeks XD Though that could be interesting, a bunch of hearing-impaired characters running around.

The infected won't wander inside the airport itself if the military still has order. Don't know if the military is going to keep its order or not, though.

My perspective on the bathroom thing was Allen, Jay, and Harrison were in a different bathroom then the others that are in one. But that is how I saw it, could be wrong.

Also Wiki, I believe that Allen was talking to Jay when he was talking about his daughter being infected. Though if he was not being quiet, I guess Harrison could have overheard. But I don't think the statement was directed at Harrison. The last statement, about killing him, was though.
