@SUSTIC

Just a quick heads up, it's actually in the middle of the day in London.

It's morning in Asia, daytime in Africa/Europe, dusk in the Americias, and nighttime over the Pacific Ocean.

@SUSTIC

Pretty much. The main idea is that it's just around lunchtime.

I'm prepping Lily's App and post right now, but it might be a little while.

@ SUS

Don't worry about exact times, because the flow of it won't be perfectly synced across the globe. But for the start...

though it would be 9 PM of Dec. 23rd in London if it's 6 AM Dec. 24th

Okay I know I should take this kind of post in the Group chat but...

Good morning.

Now to a more formal note, I have completely analyzed various pre and post Victorian Era writers' style. Looks like Hemingway's realistic dialogue style and Emily Bronte's adjective-heavy setting description will be fitting for my IC post.

Expect some OOCs today.

To be honest, I think the group chat /General thread were an effort in futility to try and alleviate the OOC of the amount of posts.
Especially with the loophole of "If it's relevant, it's fine."

I think we should have with any discussion, after the first two posts, if it seems to be something that would turn into a drawn out discussion, post the next posts here

I think the main purpose that we were looking for was so that posts in the OOC wouldn't get buried by pages upon pages of new posts.

Ok new rule.

EDIT: changed the "bounds" of "what can be posted here."

15. Please be courteous to less active users and those in different time zones.
Use the RP General Discussion Thread for general discussions not pertaining to the IC or OP of the OOC.
Only discussions directly pertaining to the IC or OP of the OOC can be held in the OOC.
Again, this is a courtesy rule for less active users.


I'm trying to look out for those of us like Mega and Tossman and whoever else participated in the past that tend to have extraordinarily erratic schedules.

To back this rule up, here's my reasoning.

Ok from the Start of this thread to about 24 hours, there were 43 posts.

24 hours.
43 posts
5 pages.

Now that things are picking up...
from the 44th post...
in 12 hours
50 posts.
5 more pages.

so in 36 total hours, we've produced 93 posts.
10 pages.

See what I'm trying to help alleviate?

EDIT:
Reasoning 2:

Another thought would be the OOC becomes sort of "editors' notes" that help explain why things happen the way they did in the IC.

EDIT 2:
Thoughts?
Is this a reasonable conclusion and solution?

Well, that post took quite a lot. I'll bring in Koishi's intro later. Might take a nap. Maybe not.


Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

@ Mima
You used some of the characters from the prior season in that last post, correct?
You had apps for them in the prior OOC, right?

If so Could ya give me a list of keywords I could use to search and therefore fetch them?
