Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

I had heard the rumors. Congrats, I think? Anyway, I'm done with my summer classes (and MGS4) so now I'm available for anything that comes up!

Is Jefu even still around? Although I guess maybe all the hot sex is keeping him away.

i haven't seen that dude in ages. i used to think that he'd come on occasionally and check the RP stuff, but it doesn't seem as though he's doing that any more, either. i think him and toenails are having their summer of love there in merry old england, or maybe he's working construction again and uses his free time to drink, smoke and sex up the young women of new hampshire.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

I think it's high time that we finally work on concluding this arc and work on restructuring this RP. It's a shame but there are clearly a few members that more than likely are never to return for one reason or another. I don't hold anything against them, but we cannot keep this RP on indefinite hold for their sake as well.

In another thread, Crimson said he still checks this on a daily basis, Okami continues to be an active member of the board, and I check the forums often as well. Ed was the last to post here and I am sure that she's is simply waiting for something to happen. Random said he would post something but it has been quite some time since then so while I continue to hold on to the hope that he will, I won't be making any assumptions. Drachnon was also among the more recent posts in the RP, so there is still hope there as well. Jefu hasn't made any post in the longest of times, which is especially odd since he lives with Okami, as far as I know anyway.

In all likelihood, Valeron (Yake), Smartz118 (Tevai), and Omega_D (Chris) are not going to be returning due to lack of recent posts and no notice or updates. In the near future, either during this arc or before the next, we need to figure out a means to remove their characters or find an alternative. Some would suggest possible allowing others to play the characters in order to keep the continuity going. While I see the merits in such an idea, I think it's better to remove them and introduce a new group. It gives a breath of fresh air to the RP and allows whatever members that choose to join to introduce their own characters. However, if someone really does want to play a currently existing character, then I won't object.

I know Okami has alot of great ideas for this arc, but time really has a way of messing things up. It's going to seem like a copout and also a major case of deus ex, but I suggest an immediate and foreseeable conclusion to this arc. I would happily discuss anything and everything in order to achieve this both swiftly, professionally, and also in a manner that is still enjoyable. Now, I may be yanking my own chain here, but I'm sure that there a few people who have been waiting for us to post again, and I don't want to disappoint them. So for them and ourselves, we should do our best to continue to at least a decent conclusion.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

you are correct that i am waiting. as i stated above, i did not wish to go any further and murder pre-existing character's reactions to neilson bringing back a strange woman wearing nothing but his signature coat. as for the restructuring and the further murder death kill of existing characters, i would suggest we hold off on that until everyone has a chance to sound off.

but, you know, if LotS is any indication, yeah, good RP on this site is in serious trouble.

in a few crim will sound off.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

Damn... loyal to the end, ne? ^^

Yosh! I am both willing and eager to keep my brain-child alive with you guys, and be part of telling the legend that is going to be the journey of this crew.

So, what I will be doing, is reviewing some of the posts, sift through my notes, and prepare for the next arc, and give people a week to sound off. (Since I will be too busy being a fulltime boyfriend the last week I have Ed in my clutches big_smile )

If you have not given any indication of being alive during the next week, I will start plotting your character's demise/exodus/fence-sitting/torch-bearing. But, in all likelyhood, the pace will be set at a level so that the week will technically be extended with however long it takes to execute those plans tongue

But seriously. Sound off, people. I am curious to see if we can set this ship out again.

I'm here and I can vouch for Jefu. Even if he's not here to post, I can still write down what he wants if need.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

according to facebook, he's "in a relationship with..." some super skinny trollop-looking slip of a girl. most likely he's too busy getting laid  and soon being 21 to bother coming to check on the RPs. but, since there hasn't been all that much activity lately, i can't really blame him.

I hath returned, my sons. And despite being extremely busy or extremely distracted, I had no plans of leaving K-F permanently. I'll try and reply more often since I do check the forums once in a great while.

Hey, gimme a break. Even Jesus took his sweet ass time.

Jefu, also being of questionable birth, took advantage of the situation. However, the sound of police sirens...

Just a quick reminder that I'm alive. And bored. Oh crap, I have a Spanish composition to do! I guess I'll do that...

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

*comes out wearing robe and slippers*

What are you kids up to!?

Hookay. I dunno how well this will work, but I have an idea.

How about we take the whole scenario, turn it topsy-turvy, and make it 110% controlled by me, where I move the story along at certain intervals, present you with a series of opponents, tasks and situations, and then those who want to post can do so, independent of how the rest act. Basicly, making it OP in the regard that they crew sail on the same ship, then split up to do whatever whenever they come to some semblance of land.

Mull on that a bit, and I will put it in effect if desired. Can't do much worse than this stand-still, no?

For now, and if the same problem occurs, I will do it again to get the ball running again.

It is highly artificial, and will require some forced suspense of disbelief, but the option is to call it quits, it seems.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

i think i'll leave it up to the OCs, since Izzy's intro was the keening of the death bell, so to speak.

so many characters i don't get to use, it's not really that much of a defeat to me any more.

I'm all for getting the maximum reward for least amount of work so I'm all for it tongue. But seriously, if this has a chance of bringing things back, I say go for it.

Re: Legend of Five Oceans - RP for the immersed player

Actually, let me do it. I know exactly how I want everything to turn out in this arc, I was it's architect after all so I would like to instead write out how everything should play out, and get us off of this island and on to the next journey.

Yeesh that was a quick response. I guess when someone is offering to actually take the buck, people are going to react quick. Fine, I'll start tomorrow and we'll see where this takes us.
