OOC Discussion

6.30pm Thursday 11th March 2010, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England.

A five-year old girl, Regina Balfour, is kidnapped in broad daylight from the Eden Shopping Centre, while her mother’s back is momentarily turned. Left behind is her ladybird shaped backpack, which contained supplies for her insulin pump. She needs her medication to live more than a few days, and her condition will rapidly deteriorate without it...

How is it going for people? I'm keen for constructive criticism. Too slow? Too police procedural? Not enough for the non-cops to do? Want some supernatural shit to kick off?

It's going well for me. I like the pace, and I like the police procedural elements. I'm a fan of police procedurals, particularly British ones. I've had plenty to do, and I'm in no rush to get to the supernatural stuff, though I'm sure that'll come.

I agree with Mr. Handy, it's a lot of fun. I am playing Simon as fully skeptical and he'll likely remain that way for awhile. I don't mind the supernatural elements slowly being revealed as we continue.

I’m enjoying it, although it does feel a lot of it revolves around Kris so I hope everyone else isn’t feeling too left out.

Yeah, you all moved quite quickly, every other play through I've seen people seemed to take things more leisurely and didn't really start investigating until the Friday which might explain why Kris has been so central, flashing lights and everything, it might be because I dropped you straight into the action.

Ok!

I keep seeing the ‘x hours since Regina Balfour was abducted’ messages and think we’re miles off the pace but perhaps not, after all :)

Heh, well, I thought you needed a bit of encouragement. First 24hrs and all that.

I'm working all weekend so might be slow to post - big COVID outbreak to deal with - so feel free to continue your discussions but just be aware I might take a while to move things on.

Just checking in, how is the game going for everyone? I reckon we're around halfway. Any changes you'd like? It's a published scenario but I'm happy to tweak it.

I’m enjoying it. I think (as per Kris’ recent posts) I know what’s going on but I’m at a loss as to where Lindsay is.

I’m interested to find out what happens to Kris after Balfour complains... :o

I'm also enjoying it. I'm at a loss too as to how we can find Lindsay and Regina unless we get a break.

I'm quite enjoying it as well. Feel like we're missing something on finding a lead to save Reginia, but that may be our fault for hyper fixating on the Balfours-- though being this is CoC it's hard not to. ;)

Cool, after day 2's events I'll shake things up a bit for day 3 so that might help with the search, or not.

Well, the dice have not been kind to Balfour today, and that has not worked out well for Simon.

It's okay. I half expected him to smite me so being choked out is almost a pleasant surprise. :D

This isn't an 'either/or' situation.

Just to say I'm on-call all weekend so may not be able to respond to posts for a few days.
