Welcome to Gaia! ::

((You know, I beleive a good way to get people is to get affiliated with other guilds. SDRP has tons of affiliations, one or two of those are role play threads that started in the guild and moved out to their own thing.

It would not be bad to get affiliated with some charities. Maybe donate some money to them and have the Mishap Mercenaries picture posted with a link to the guild. There are millions of places to put the name out there. We could also make a thread for recruiting too.

About rearranging the squads into the amount people post probably is not the best idea. Its hard to judge what people will do constantly. If he posts frequently for two weeks, the third week he might not post as much, then he could easily post twice as much in the fourth week.

It would be cool if the squads interacted sometimes outside of HQ too, but I think we tried something like that once. Like a co-op mission and it failed. Mostly due to lack of experience and timing issues. A war would be interesting but I don't think something like that would happen... I don't know, one squad leader says, "My squad is the best, all of you begone." DX))

((I am sorry I had more ideas. DX
What if the squad leaders where assigned squad members every mission. It would keep things from getting stale mainly because you would not end up with the same set of people every time.

Frog, I am still trying to forget about that DX. That was embarrassing. To think I was that bad. My character was not thought out back then, not in the slightest. How did I ever get away with it, I don't know.

Oh and, we already have the hiring out to other threads thing. Its never been used before though. If we did though, we could have some cheesy advert at the end telling people they could be a Mishap Mercenary.... smile

In the guild, there should be an introduction thread, where all new members of the guild posts. I don't know if its already there. Its been ages since I have seen the guild...))

((Now I will continue to rp on the same post.))

All of the council members looked down and shook their head. "You are mad, its impossible to kill those dragons, and your just one man!" One of the advisor's cried out. "He might of brought an army with him."Another said weakly.

"I did not bring an army, only three others, but I assure you it will be enough... Just give me a chance." Sokato interjected this before any others could speak out. "I do charge how ever..." Sokato flips over the paper that was sent to him, it has a price listed on the back. He hands the paper over to one of the advisor's, who nearly gags on seeing the amount.

((I gotta go. DX I guess I still have more to write though. I will finish this later then. Sorry.))

((
@Xinrie: I didn't know we hired out. Think you could arrange for a big ol' 'HIRE US' in the name of our thread, to let others know about that little detail?

@Requiem: Xinrie gave the order to pull out, so the tech doesn't matter much anyways. Although, if you want to keep going in Urkal, I would join you. We could go through three major plot points before anyone else gets back to base, at this rate. Just lose the car first.

@Lutz: Your RP will become much, much more interesting when you post something. Be aware that you might be the only one there for a while, cause a few people may have gone AWOL.

The library, MMHQ

Joel was almost certain that the door hadn't been there the first time he had been there, but the way this library was arranged, he couldn't be sure. He was certain that he had been there before; he recognized some of the titles, which meant that he was going in circles. What he needed was a map, or at least a way of marking which way he had been. Even if he just had paper and a pencil, he could draw a map. Paper would be kept in a janitor's closet. Joel looked at the door again. It didn't really look like a janitor's closet, but in this place, who could tell? Maybe all janitor's closets here were made of reinforced oak, and had a large symbols slashed into them a quarter of an inch deep.

Or, it could be the exit. Joel opened the door.

He barely caught a glimpse of what looked like a hideously deformed anthropomorphic green cow before it hit him, pushing him into the side of a bookshelf. Vision blurring from the impact, Joel punched at where he thought the stomach was. It stumbled back, freeing Joel. His eyes refocused in time to see the creature holding its stomach with its hooves, wearing an odd expression on its face. Joel jumped sideways. An ugly yellow mass went splat on the bookshelf where he had been. It coalesced into a frowny face and crawled towards him, just as the beast charged again. Joel couldn't fight the whatever-it-was and evade its vomit at the same. Instead, he pulled a book off a shelf and threw it at the beast. He had been hoping to distract the beast for a moment, but it worked better than expected. It stopped, mid-charge, and crossed its eyes, looking confused. It picked up the book and read the cover. Then it opened the book and flipped through a few pages, giggling softly. In less than a minute, the thing read the entire book. It pulled another book off the shelf, and read that, too.

Joel had thrown one of the bovine romances.

Joel (who had been edging away from the creeping vomit) turned and ran.

((Requiem, our characters are so similar I think I could probably sue you. XD
Just kidding.... but not really.

I think I am the only member that participated in that co-op mission and is still around the thread. That one kid quit after I blew my lid and ripped him a new one.... I hated him. Any way, I am the only one that does not laugh when I read it because its so damn embarrassing. DX I would never leave Mishaps if it moved to the guild I would be much happier with it because I know that the guild wont just spontaneously die on all of us....


Oh and happy Birthday Xinrie!))

((You know what they say, "When in a pinch go with the cyborg.".... No.... they don't say that? Whatever. I need to type out the post for the rp. Too late any way, almost 12 o'clock. Tomorrow... okay later today then I guess =/ ))

(Can we just say my team mates were killed and I'm the only one who survived, nobody on my team posts)
