Bad, bad news, guys. Here comes real life.
So, I just moved. You knew that. I'm also a Rocky Horror junkie. You may have known that. The problem comes when I want to join the Rocky crew here... and now they tell me they'll take me, and their rehearsals are Sunday nights.
EDIT: (I don't know how late rehearsals will be going. They start at 5 Mountain time, and it's possible that they'll be short for now. As showtime gets closer, though, damn straight it'll go later.)
This was a really hard choice for me. This group has been a big deal to me for years, and I'd hate to have to leave. But I've been here three weeks and need to start meeting people, and gods know I'm failing at that at school.
So - that leaves four options.
0. (added in edit) We push start time back a single hour for now, and see how things go. It's possible that this timing will work, though it'll put a lot of vulnerability into future Sundays.
1. We move to another time during the week. I realize there are employed people in the group, and nothing else works for some of you. Finding something I can be consistent with will also suck, a lot, because I'm in grad school.
2. We go on hiatus until after the Halloween shows. Ick, ick ick ick, never mind that the cast is also available for hire year-round so I could get called away for a month of rehearsals at any point they get a gig, then when they start up rehearsals again next August I'm gone for another three months.
3. I bow out. I've got info for a lot of the major players in the Depths of Valdorane storyline, and can do a writeup of where I see things going and send it to anyone willing to take over. I'd continue to launch a server every week, follow the tavern posts, and redouble my efforts on filling in the wiki, but I'd no longer be an active member of FMTG.
Clearly, #2 is the worst option. #3 sucks for me, but if there's no time everyone else can agree on, I'll accept it. I suggest we try #0 this week and see how things go.
There's no good way to say how sorry about this. I wish there were.
