Title: OOC: The Silver road
RasputinII - January 26, 2005 09:32 PM (GMT)
Here is your OOC thread, as requested.
Xarhain - January 26, 2005 09:35 PM (GMT)
Who by?
Anyway, now its here I have a quick question. As the caravans will be moving constantly, when will Drog rest? not to mentioned the tired horses. Will one of the caravans be converted into a stable or something?
Its not really important, but hey, we got an OOC thread.
RasputinII - January 27, 2005 06:20 PM (GMT)
All shall be made clear. It has been well thought out. As for Drog, who said he could sleep?
Xarhain - January 27, 2005 06:44 PM (GMT)
Ah ok good. Looking forward to getting into some fights with my upteen d10 or so whatever huge poundage hammer of killyness damage multiple wounds death death deathy hammerness....

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a definite case of too much information.

Indeed :)
That's not what I came to comment on, however - just popped in to complement you lot on what seems an interesting, well-written RP (I'm keeping track of most of the RPs on this board at the moment, in my capacity as benevolent mod ;)). Rasputin I'd say has definitely got a lot better as a GM since his first attempts, getting a great feel for atmosphere; although spelling and checking is still an issue, it's better as well.
I know this seems unprompted, but I've just been giving feedback on characters and Goblit's RP, and I'm in full constructive criticism mode. It'll probably stop when I bump into one of Dreg's posts...
Xarhain - January 27, 2005 11:51 PM (GMT)
:lol: lol, thanks Aesgareth. Though I er.. didn't quite mean it in.. that way...
You have a sick, sick mind... ;)
RasputinII - January 28, 2005 03:52 PM (GMT)
I also wondered about that comment Xar, something one should keep to themselves.
Chili: :D Excellent. Let the praise keep a flowing. As for the spelling, I do my best, I use spell check on word and so on.
LordChilipepa - January 28, 2005 04:56 PM (GMT)
Aye, of course. I would point out that I find the best way to check your text is simply to read back over your work; not only do you pick up on things that the MS Word spellchecker misses (for example, there was 1 error in your character submission: you said he became an honoured member of the Knight of the Realm. Obviously there should've been "Knights" not "Knight", but the incompetent piece of rubbish can't pick up on things like that...), but you also notice anything that sounds stilted and out-of-place. Some of by best arena fights (at least in my opinion) have started out in a sort of tangled, cliche-riddled morass and then been straightened out as I read over them, making them into something worth reading :).

I am a little worried that you guys aren't really interacting with each other. I realise the current system of movement makes such things a little difficult, but I am trying to give you the time to get to develop your characters (the road block any one?), it just seems that the characters haven't really developed very much, I know its only been a icle while but still. Perhaps this road block and Drauthnir's suggestion will help. If you have any ideas on anything I can do on this part, as I realise its a very key part of any RP.
Cheers,
Ras

To be fair, I think Taalric and Drog have been interacting. :unsure:
How do you want us to play this roadblock - will you post describing us lifting rocks out of the way, or shall we do it ourselves?
RasputinII - January 29, 2005 11:53 AM (GMT)
I'm not accusing any one of anything. I don't know whether you guys have found the same thing, but I am just a little worried that the chaarcters aren't really comming out if you know what I mean. You lot may disagree, if so, then there is nothing to worry about :D
As for the roadblock, we shall see. I shall chime in when needed.
Xarhain - January 29, 2005 12:13 PM (GMT)
I agree with Goblit. I've been trying to get Taalric to become friendly with Drog, but that might be difficult. He is an ogre after all. Perhaps a good battle would help us look at eachother in a new light (hint hint ^_^)
Aesgareth - January 29, 2005 08:07 PM (GMT)
Well, it wouldn't really be in character for Jacques to come out and start chatting with random group members. He "keeps his own council" so to speak.
Drauthnir - January 29, 2005 08:10 PM (GMT)
In other words, he talks to himself. :P Long, drawn out conversations with himself...sometimes with the horse, you know, the usual crazy stuff.
RasputinII - January 29, 2005 09:14 PM (GMT)
After a chat with Chili today, I belive I am asking for too much too soon. You need to some out of your shells so too speak. Ignore me ;)
Xarhain - February 6, 2005 07:33 PM (GMT)
Just have to say, it seems like my last post is saying how boring the RPG is. I hope you dont take it that way Ras, I think it's great! ^_^ That was just from Taalrics perspective, as I'm sure you'll understand.
Xarhain - February 14, 2005 06:32 PM (GMT)
Sorry for double post, but I'm away tomorrow till friday. Taalrics done with what he needs to do for the moment, so he'll just tag along with whatever happens.
Goblit Skullhelm - February 15, 2005 07:12 PM (GMT)
I think that I forgot to tell Ras before, but I´m in Lanzarote at the moment. I´m in a net cafe for the next five minutes but I won´t have time to RP until next Monday at the earliest.
Sorry for not saying.
RasputinII - February 15, 2005 07:35 PM (GMT)
Thats fine, we were on a unofficial hold any way, and will continue to be untill you two get your buts back here ;)
Xarhain - February 18, 2005 02:13 PM (GMT)
I'm back now, sifting through all the new posts on the palace and other forums.
Xarhain - March 15, 2005 09:24 PM (GMT)
Curious, but I'm going away again. Strange nobodys posted in this thread since the last time I went away. -_-
It's another week-long camp, so in case anything dramatic happens I'll just have Taalric on auto. Do as you see fit Ras! ^_^
Xarhain - March 23, 2005 09:26 AM (GMT)
Well, I'm back again.. if it matters ^_^
