Some hacking necessary to make the scene run smoothly. I've not edited anyone out, just shuffled dialogue so it makes a bit more sense. "Good evening, Sam" Cara smiles again, shaking Sam by the hand. "Samantha... Samantha" she seems to be placing the name, "oh, gee. So you're Samantha Gilman...

Well quite :) Thanks for the first post. It's given me a great deal of food for thought. Notably, I made fewer parallels between Story and fiction as Story and real life. Real life, like RPG, is about interpretation and decision-making. But anticipation, the belief in likely future events, is...

I'm tempted to say: you can think about a thing too much :) Keeping a game compelling is obviously a good thing, but I think this has devolved to point scoring. The wording left you open to critical assassination. 'Forced' and 'Create a situation' do conjure negative connotations, insinuating...

Ooooh. *Zips lips shut*. Tempting to spill more beans. Very tempting. Get thee to a library Adam West!

OOC Gellion answered the door, but Ulfang was coming to do so. Depending on where Shay puts Aranel at this point, Gellion, Ulfang and Aranel should be present to hear Thalion's greeting. IC "Er...um," Gellion stammers, just as surprised by the Elf's announcement as by the appearance of the Elf...

I've posted a brief history of Arkham in the recruitment thread, renamed OOC thread. Just fluff for those who may be interested. http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=4259883#post4259883 This isn't official CoC information, and pertains to the Arkham in our game only. Lots of Keepers give...

And now, on an in-game note: A brief history of Arkham. (Common knowledge of Arkham, history every player would likely know, at least in part) For further reading on the history of Arkham Massachusetts and the regions thereabouts, please consult your local library archives. Arkham Public...

Just to clear up confusion officially: The turn sequence remains. At present this is Kookalouris, greenstar, Dire Lemming, Lucean, Keeper. You may break sequence to post OOC comments, but your comments should be kept in an SBLOCK unless it's something that might be detrimental to the group if...

OOC If Shay intended Aranel to head into the bedroom to confer, Baran's last set of questions will come after she comes in and the knock at the door will come pretty much straight after. So we'll put those questions on hold for now, and if you want to alter them later according with what Aranel...

OOC Dire - I didn't say anything about dropping the sequence :) just the maximum threshold on turns per day (ie, players can post as many times they like, so long as it's in sequence, as you originally suggested). We'll ignore the blip for this round and assume the original sequence order in the...

Thanks for sharing that with us Gerry. I think your positive comments are indicators that you're going in the right direction. I think the most insightful thing anyone ever said to me went something like this: "we live in the world we anticipate". I always interpreted it to mean, think...

Very well. Let's try Dire Lemming's suggestion and see how that works out. To summarise: I'll lift the maximum posts per day limit and players should simply post as often as they like whenever they can. The 48hr max-out limit still stands (48hrs/2 days from the time of your last IC post -...

Headology. If you know everyone's waiting on you, it makes you less comfortable than if you know there's an official turn rate. If you can only manage one turn per two days, and you know the official turn rate is two posts per day, most people would feel like they were keeping people waiting. If...

In all my responses, I'm going to assume all players have read the Fellowship of the Witching Hour Guidelines text. Lucean: just use OOC:BRB if holding up the game is a worry. But the minimum post remains once every two days, regardless of the maximum turns per day per player. If you fail to...

New message requiring all players' attention in the OOC thread: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=4257815#post4257815

I've noticed posts are coming somewhat in a flurry with a long gap between the end of the turn sequence, and the start of the next. So I thought I'd suggest we up the official turn rate from maximum one turn per day per player to maximum two per day per player and see how we go. I'm putting it...

As jobs: I used to be a graphic designer. Now I'm a painter and decorator. I'd like to be a novelist.

ook? ook ook?

Gellion, left behind with Mythia and standing closest to the door, has already opened it. "Oh" his mouth forms a surprised circle. "Hello Thalion." OOC Welcome to the game Fenris :)

Actually my turn was the one with the OOC notes and the map of Arkham. However, I can see, given what I said about posting OOC willy nilly, that this is confusing. Next time I write a purely OOC contribution I'll be sure to add something to the effect of 'will the line please shuffle forward'...
