Well I just got back from a nasty place called Bakersfield. Sorry I wasn't in contact, but I had to ride a bike 2 miles to an internet cafe and the last thing I thought about when I was there was anything fun related (I have been cataloging and selling the estate of a deceased relative). I see zielonobrody is off for some time now, and my character is not currently active. I'll think of a way to start the "morning" and post that, and then keep an eye out for updates.
A juicy murder happens and everything really slows down, bummer. Talk to you soon!

Okay so what's going on then?...Do we have a date we all return or...?

´Scuse my crashing your conversation here.


I just wanted to say that usually game speed will pick up - it might take a while and it´s worth waiting for. Everyone have different phases in their every day life, right? If it´s slow take a look at the spoiler below.


Cheers!

Hey there, Syrinx.

Sorry, players, for not responding to this sooner. Let's just hold off until zielonobrody is back (looks like about another week). Glad to have you back, Samuel, and we still have TakeSolo (thanks for sticking with us). That's three, and I'll post a request for a couple more, too, and see if we can get any fresh blood. We'll get there!

I might squeeze in a character, if I may? I have to read up on the background though. And, yes hello guys, poor manners on my behalf.

Howdy, it's always good to see a new face. I sure hope we start back up soon! Btw I like the new forum layout.

Turns out zeilonobrody's absence was a good thing as I was busy as hell last week, too. I'm good to go now, though. Syrinx, you're absolutely welcome here if you still want the slot. PM me when you're ready and we can get started. Also, we have another person who's PMed me, too, so we have two more potential characters which would be great!

zielonobrody, are you back with us yet?

sure thing boss I gotta get back into it. seems playing here has gone out of habit. gotta get back to LA Skinner too If any of you are entertaining thoughts about joining there, seriously, do it.

Okay I have no idea what you just said Zel but I'm glad your back!! Let's get this game rolling!!!!! I've been itching to play you have no idea!

Our Polish friend might have used an idiomatic expression turned English there! Like in Swedish, "No danger on the roof!" - which means, "No worries!"
What he might mean is if your thinking about joining, and that comes out like "if your entertaining thoughts about joining." Right, Zielonobrody?
Got to love it! My own word order will be wicked some times too, as English is my second language.
Cheers!

Yeah, I meant thinking about, but I believe it's an English phrase. I may have gotten something wrong. I don't use English on a day to day basis. Just casually, lacrosse practice, here, some forums.

let's get this show on the road please

Hmmm No I understand what you are trying to say I think...

I don't know what "LA Skinner" is. Also you said "if any of you are entertaining thoughts of joining there" as in what I assumed was "LA Skinner" That is why I was confused. But anyway, your up zel! We are waiting for your post I believe. Go check out Day 3 I'm sitting on the M.U. steps waiting for you.

Yeah, zielonobrody go ahead and meet up with Arch whenever you're ready and continue that thread. I'll get the new player(s) in as soon as I can. Samuel, feel free to post on Gregory's activities, too. We can get him met up with the others.

btw Sam I have family that lives out near Bakersfield

The Valley is a really big place. My Dad lives near Bakersfield as well, but he's almost 4 hours away. Distance is relative in a desert (and yeah, it actually is one). Anyway, where do they live? Have you ever had the (dis)pleasure of visiting the Bible Belt of California? I shouldn't knock it too much, I bet everyone here has had food from there (think tomatoes, lots and lots of tomatoes), but I used to live in a little armpit of a town called Los Banos (translate that!), and am not a big fan of the San Joaquin Valley.

Amarriner:
I have completely lost track of time (in game) and can't find all the relevant posts, but I think I put off the appointment with the french woman again, and am not sure if it is this day or another. This will effect what Gregory does first thing in the morning. I'll be sending him to report in with the boss again at some point in the morning, but if there are no urgent appointment's, he'll probably have a leisurely breakfast and coffee first thing.

Welcome Syrinx, it looks like we're ready to get moving in earnest again. Yay!

Today (in game) would've been the day you would meet the french woman at the office again, but it's not entirely necessary. Only if you feel like roleplaying it. If not, we'll just assume you called in and postponed it again and told Saltonstall you'd rather spend your time getting to the bottom of the situation. If we ever get another Ondine player we can bring that back into the fold (or if you just want to roleplay it), but it's not crucial to this story. So, by all means, Gregory can have his coffee. I'm thinking I'll somehow work Syrinx's character in with yours to begin with (unless something else comes up sooner). Perhaps when you get to the office.

The LA Skinner reference was to my game in the Modern Era section her at Yog. LA Skinner Game
The game will move to a new forum when the characters relocate to New York from Los Angeles/ Manaus. I pushed for the game just before I applied to play here.

You´re welcome to check the new game out in October when the current scenario episode is wrapped up.

cool charchter Syrinx Welcome to the game

Thanks Z! Hopefully I can play the part and not start rambling nonsense anytime soon. Amarriner; if I went too far in time aspect, make Timms halt in his lumberjacking and throw him in to some action!
Cheers all!
