Operation: Anthology OOC [calling all active agents]

[Velmont]

I have bought my equipement. You can see the list in the RG. My personal equipement is the first block, the second is the budget, and the last are the gadgets.

My tracer business card is to put it on Jackson. I was thinking to bluff my way so he would accept it, but if someone have a better idea, or want to take the job of putting it on him, I give that gadget to him.

Hey gents...

I've been a little busy the last day or so... I'll try and update the In-game thread within the next day... just wanted to give a heads up...

I'm enjoying things so far and hope everyone else is too...

And to anyone, who happens to read this... we're are still looking for an alternate or two just in case...

Attn: buzzard, Shenanigans, Mordhiem

Haven't seen any posts from you in a few days... I hope everything is ok...

Are we dead or dying here??? Who's still interested???

Once again, since I'm new to PbP games... I don't know what the standard is in waiting before you NPC characters and actively recurit new players... I could move the story along but a few people haven't posted in over a week...

I'd like to continue... What's everyone think???

 

[Velmont]

I'd like too, but I am waiting for some people to respond to my request... Come on guys!

 

[Festy_Dog]

I'm still here, I'm confused as to the disappearance of the other players though.

Sorry I haven't posted, but I missed the post by Velmont, and then it was way off the first page.

Ok... In order to keep the game alive and moving we're gonna do the following:

I'm giving Mordhiem and Shenganians until Saturday to post. After that I'll NPC their characters until we can find alternates to fill the active the roster. That will be a total of 2 weeks since either posted. I hope no one thinks that's unfair but we need to move the game along while players wish to continue.

buzzard, who had not posted until the other day, now has his necessary OOC info to resume posting...

Velmont and Festy_Dog... I appreciate the both of you being as active as you have...

In the end, I'm looking for 5 players who can post around once a day or so.

Attn: anyone out there who wish to be an alternate please respond... We may have an opening for you very soon

My lack of posting is a function of two things:
A) I only post when something is relevant to the character or he can do something useful. Other than BSing the other newsie, I haven't seen much for him to do yet. I expect that when action occurs, I will be more involved.

B) I am only vaguely aware of what is going on. I am having trouble following the action. Yes I have read every post. The manner in which things started and has progressed has left me confused.

let me see if I can address these...

A) well I guess PbP games are somewhat like Fight Club... You decide your own level of involvement... from what I can gather PbP games often involve much "BSing" as you call it, because of the slow nature of the game's pace even if players and DMs are posting with some frequency... at least in IMO.

B) I guess I'm confused as to why you're confused... You have an assignment... When a new game begins the DM has got to get the story/action started in some way... I decided to go the route that you guys were already in place... Maybe my DMing style doesn't match your play style... No one is right and no one is wrong... It's just different... I hope that you continue on with us tho buzzard. I also warned people that I had never done this before... Playing over this medium is very different than if we all sat around my dining room table... If you had questions as to something, I'd be more than eager to answer them here in the OOC thread
