The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread

Styx Base, 2112: Humanity has established a foothold on Pluto, at the very edge of the solar system. Story and his companions arrive just as a crisis is brewing. Humanity plans to spread its empire to the stars, but there are other forces at work. The destiny of the human race is at stake, and the Time Lord and his friends may be the only ones standing in the way of impending doom.

This is Classic Doctor Who meets Call of Cthulhu, the second of a series of connected adventures set in different eras and locations that started with The Terror Out of Time.

Welcome, Baronofbeefdip! You may post for Alison when you are ready.

I'm going to be moving the threads forward now. I hope to finish them all tonight. Failing that, I'll have to finish up on Saturday.

Mr Handy can you NPC Elizabeth if need be through to Wednesday 16th? I'm very knocked out by the neurological disease, and need to rest solidly for a good few days. Should be back and functional by Thursday though. Thanks.

No problem. I'll be going away again next weekend, but I should be able to update on Thursday night before I leave.

That is amazing - especially those little boxes that pop up when you hover the mouse over certain "stops." The text that goes with the pictures is sometimes hilarious!

I'm going to start getting things moving again tonight and tomorrow. My next convention isn't for almost three months, so I expect I'll be able to keep it moving now.

FYI - due to needs of my company, I'll be working my behind off for the next 2-3 weeks and will be lucky to find time to post. If I'm holding anything up, feel free to NPC Lucius as necessary.

Thanks for letting me know. That won't be a problem. There's often a slowdown in December anyway, though I do hope I'll be able to keep things moving. I'm updating all of the IC threads tonight, which involves merging and splitting into new ones. I hope to be able to update more frequently than once per week from now on.

I'm not on Facebook, and I'm not keen on joining - time constraints make that a problem. I don't have a blog of my own, but yours looks great!

I did put a couple of short works of interactive fiction online for a couple of writing contests back in 2008:
You, Robot (written for children)
The End of It all

Thanks Mr. Handy. I actually had someone do the work to make the site look that way... now I just do the upkeep on it.

You're welcome, and thank you. I was inspired when I wrote You, Robot. There was a 1500 word (and 10 section) hard limit, and I needed every last one of them and still had to compress things more than I would have liked. I think I managed to accomplish a lot regardless, and the story works on a deeper level that an adult can appreciate.

Malapropos.. If there are any frenchspeaking people in this game, I wish to appologize for possible abuse of the french language. I know a little french, but not enough to be sure that Juliette'e french is not totally jumbled by google-translate.

Just sent a friend request :)

I have various blogs, including some genealogy ones that are a bit too niche to share here. But my main general-purpose one now is my Google+ one. See here. Oh and my Google+ profile has links to all my online/social networking places, like Facebook, Twitter, etc.

I quite like it. It doesn't replace Facebook for me - which I don't really like, but quite a lot of my family are on there, as well as people with my 1 in a million neurological disease. But I like the public (or can be more restricted) nature of Google+. I blog on there quite a lot now. I have quite a lot of local friends on there, as well as genealogy friends, and some Yog-Sothoth Call of Cthulhu pals.

After tomorrow morning I will be away until Monday evening.

So until then (whichever applies to you)...

Merry Christmas!

Happy Chanukah!

Joyous Kwanzaa!

Merry Yule!

And for those who celebrate multiple or something I missed...

Happy Holidays!

And in the spirit of Doctor Who remember what Mr. Copper said...
...human beings worship the great god 'Santa', a creature with fearsome claws and his wife Mary. Every year, the people of UK go to war with the country of Turkey. They then eat the turkey people for Christmas Dinner, like savages!
