Cysic X DreamerDarkRequim Aaaah, I missed the first round for Chapter 3 I think? Which means I have to make my first post in the catch up topic, right? :' > Just making sure before I write anything. That's correct, yes. Alright, thanks! I'll go and write one for the catch up topic and then write out my post for the current round.

Just a small notice that I might extend the current round by a day in order to allow a few people currently entangled in affairs a bit of time to catch up. The catch-up topic is there to keep it easy and consistent for people to catch up, whether they missed a round or were behind, but I'd rather not abuse the poor thing. If enough people need the extra time I'll set us back just a bit in order to do so.
But, please don't rely on such an extension. You never know!
Also I'll be getting my posts up good and proper tomorrow... (once I wake up). Life is, as Barky as excellently put it earlier, "a thing" lately.

As a small notice the current round is extended until around this time tomorrow night in order to allow a few people an extra day. I know life has been busy for a lot of us and it's better for everyone if we take this at a slower pace.

I think I rolled too many dice, not that it matters since I can just ignore the results. I understand that I won't have to roll anymore for Team Aura, since they lost half their members... (There was only two to begin with.) does this also mean I don't roll for Team Moonlighter anymore since they lost half of their team? (Just to be absolutely clear, though I think this is the case.)
And if we don't roll, then what do we do with those characters that have not been kidnapped but are still looking for sick ones, yet immune to the rolls? Do we just have them go off and continue their search? Or are they no longer playable for the remainder of the rounds?

Rae Guns I think I rolled too many dice, not that it matters since I can just ignore the results. I understand that I won't have to roll anymore for Team Aura, since they lost half their members... (There was only two to begin with.) does this also mean I don't roll for Team Moonlighter anymore since they lost half of their team? (Just to be absolutely clear, though I think this is the case.) This is correct. They've lost 2/4 of their members, Aura has lost 1/2. This represents 50% and means that there's no more possible loss. Rae Guns And if we don't roll, then what do we do with those characters that have not been kidnapped but are still looking for sick ones, yet immune to the rolls? Do we just have them go off and continue their search? Or are they no longer playable for the remainder of the rounds? Characters that are immune to rolls/kidnapping can act in whatever agency they please for the remainder of the chapter--you can have them leave the group to search for their missing teammates or you can continue to have them search for the sick. If you want, you can continue to roll for immune characters and you can just assume that "kidnap" rolls become "attack" rolls. That's also an option.

Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears Barkchewer Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears I'm sorry it took me so long to reply. The Sandslash and Sandile are now officially out of the fight. We have...*thinks* Umm... ten or so more posts to go. xd It's all good Barky. Sometimes it's hard to get through business+motivation for something that's currently so combat oriented. We'll get through it though. Sooner than I expected too--I thought we had one more double post before those two were down for the count, but no complaints here. I thought I had counted three posts from us each, but I might have looked at it wrong. Either way, if they went down early I don't mind xd It seemed appropriate for them to get frozen then anyways.

That's what I think I'll do if I roll a 1 or 2 for Murdock or Mortimer for the remainder of the chapter is turn their kidnap rolls into attacks.

Rae bby would you mind getting a PH post down so that I can move the round along? It's okay if it takes a bit to fill I'm guilty as hell of that noise but if you have a post down I can get things rolling. Edit: It's very much appreciated. Mostly just wanted to give people the time/flexibility in order to tend to the next round--most people are behind on writing their posts, but time isn't evenly available so for those who get a burst of free time I'd like them to be able to push into the now-current round.

Guh, I just saw this. I'll finish the current round's post by tonight hopefully, too. I feel bad for not writing sooner. It's like all of the sudden things got super busy. But apparently not to busy to ignore the joys of RPing completely, hehe. I'll do my best to keep up. Just let me know if I lag too far behind again.

It's not so much that you're behind (most people still have largely incomplete posts) as it is that I just wanted to open up the next round to give people some extra flexibility. This round will run basically until everyone has posted since the next mod post will be the ending.

Plot twist: Chapter 3 was all a test....
That was actually really good! It also explains the non-lethal thing because I was thinking that the kidnapped would get fairly hurt.
I'm assuming we post one more time to wrap it up?

DreamerDarkRequim Plot twist: Chapter 3 was all a test.... That was actually really good! It also explains the non-lethal thing because I was thinking that the kidnapped would get fairly hurt. I'm assuming we post one more time to wrap it up? Thank you~ I thought it was a nice way to generate a serious atmosphere without making an overly high-risk event early on. We can't have the teams being deeply traumatized and scarred so early on! Yes, you can take a post to wrap things up. If you're taking a recruit, you can do so either in the chapter or you can do that post in your team room, it's fine either way. We're out of strict rounds now, so you can post freely; if you want to have your team talk to another team or something that's okay too. Of course, it may(?) not be the best time or situation to do so--if you're itching for a social, it might be better to just do it in a normal thread, haha. Also, on a less directed note, I'll be tending to posts I need to do (Essence first, then my late chapter team posts) once I get back. I'll be gone until about 3:30, probably. I might relax for a bit once I get back but after that I'll get to writing... I feel bad for falling so far behind. For whoever is wondering, also, all the NPC pokemon I used/will use in my chapter posts were generated via randompokemon.com. I always picked the first viable sample that came up (ex: I ignored pokemon that were too heavy for my teams to help move) in an effort to keep myself from "cheating" the system since I knew the outcome and the rewards. If anyone has an objection to me taking an encountered recruit this way (anyone at all, for any reason) hit me up and I'll ignore that recruit option. I don't think what I'm doing is unfair but in this situation I would rather be unfair to myself than allow others to think I'm being unfair to them!

Ah yes that was a really good plan--though I can't say my characters appreciate it much. Either way... I think I'll go with the doing the post in my team's room option as I do want to use that room for something--plus it does give me a good reason to actually get off my butt and write that starting thing for the room. Actually, the idea of randomly generated pokemon interests me because I...was just covering my eyes and pointing at lists to get mine in my posts. I think I might go with that for when I go to pick a recruit instead of picking one of the pokemon my team rescued (if I got their type in my roll). In any case thank for letting me know--I have this tendency to double check on things a lot because I dislike making mistakes. :' )

In any case thank for letting me know--I have this tendency to double check on things a lot because I dislike making mistakes. :' ) The expectation for this chapter is that half of everyone will hate Serrin. But he's their boss so good luck doing much about it. Yeah though, randomized or semi-randomized is usually how we handle chapter recruits by virtue of the fact that it's usually not functional to generate a list for everyone. The "Recruit what you fought/rescued" thing here works because people generated their own lists and, as a rule, we'll try to incorporate that kind of thing into rescue chapters where possible. And don't mind the double checking, I'm very much happy to answer such questions because I'm the same way. Better to ask a pointless question than to make a dumb mistake. Dark_Hunter-Angelic_Tears It is, yes! We actually talked about it in the chat like two weeks ago, I guess it never made its way to you. o 3o
