The New OOC and Hangout

She has left the Discord as far as I can tell after there was somewhat of a mess with her, and AFAIK she has not said anything of being in the RP since.
I'll stick it in the Inactivity category for now then.
But yeah, I did notice she left the discord...

Aye, he wouldn't believe he's ready and opt out.
 
Okay then, you did mention still wanting to take part in the episode so, Uhhh
What do you say ManicMuse ManicMuse ? Maybe Raymond can be a volunteer too?

Is this still a thing?


So I am thinking maybe some students would play hooky and/or otherwise be MIA during exam. Lucas is probably not going to make it back in time for exam for one. A few of the not yet updated/approved characters might fit that category also. Just checking here to see how much interest there would be in a small B-plot for non participating students. Perhaps a rowdy party? Perhaps a joyride?

Something of that nature. Give a holler if you think you might skip exam for some reason but still want to be in ep 5 in some capacity.
 
I don't know myself.
Gus Gus ? We need you to come here and clarify things! >w<

Sorry for long delay. It's been a busy day.

Firstly Lucas will be back, but will show up too late for exam. (Falling in the bay would kill him anyway)
Not sure where or when, but could definitely be persuaded to join a B plot. I believe Aldur Aldur was also considering doing a B plot, so Transparent Transparent you should reach out to him. Eden has been known to participate in shenanigans also so I would consider hitting up Swoob Swoob to host an exam skipping party in his mom's house or something. His mom makes great pancakes, I hear.


Secondly, I was supposed to announce this four or five hours ago, but we are delaying official start of exam posting until Sunday afternoon/evening. welian welian can we get a countdown timer up in here?
 
I would be more excited about the delay if I didn't have drill from Friday to Sunday. -.- Such terrible timing for me lol.
 
Is this still a thing?

My thing is we had a lot of brand spankin new students that did the exams. There really was not an opt out for them. If your character would make it as far as showing up, I would opt for faking illness or fainting to get out of doing the test if that's their thing. Would be a great way to give the Staff or Volunteers something to post to right out the gate.

In the meantime please work in OOC and on Discord on the following:



  • TEAMS - Teams will be a 4 Student Character max, with up to two NPCs. No team should exceed 6 total, including the NPCs.
    • Please plan out your teams with posting availability in mind.

    • Consider your time zone.

    • Consider if you play multiple characters, if you want them in the same group.

    • Once you have a full group, please post your group and NPC in the OOC thread and tag Gus and ManicMuse.

    • Your group must have at least one NPC. If you have trouble thinking of one, tag Gus or Bag o fruit for ideas.


  • Non-Student Characters/ Students unable to participle, everyone can have a roll.
    • Course Marshals

    • First Aid

    • Cheering from the sidelines

    • Be creative. Have an idea, run it by us.

    • Once you have picked a role, post in OOC with role, tag Gus and ManicMuse

    • NPC will have a Superpower and be from another Facility.

    • NPC will have a face claim that is used when someone posts for the NPC.

    • NPC can be hurt and can die.


  • Course Obstacles - Each Obstacle should ideally be completed in 2 rounds of posting.
    • Ideally group/collaboration posting is encouraged. However, if it causes delays please solo post to keep group moving forward.

    • IF anyone in your group is injured, stuck or breaks a ‘rule’ on an Obstacle tag all supporting members so someone can respond to it. (Course Marshals, First Aid, Cheerleaders)










 
ManicMuse ManicMuse In my last post with Piper, I actually moved her to the female locker room and insinuated that Manami would tag along with her. >.<
 

Public Service Announcement Q&A


I have been asked these questions by several people. That would lead me to assume many of you may have the same questions.

Why do we have to have an NPC, Manic?

  • Because I personally don't want to be writing for 20 different NPC's during the course of this episode. That would be a lot of details to keep track of. This is like the TriWizard Tournament of AEGIS. That means other students from other schools will be there. How better to bring that truth into play than by having at least one student from these other Facilities actively being played out in your posts? The idea is to make it fun, not punish you. If your team REALLY does not want to have to write an NPC, we can assign someone to do it with you or MAYBE your team can opt out. I would rather that is the acceptation than the rule, though.

Can I kill or harm my NPC?

  • Yes and no. Accidents happen. However, keep in mind that actions have consequences. In character actions will still be met with real life reactions both in and out of character. The Exam is not going to continue on with death bodies floating on the water. I am not going to be happy with derailment of the main storyline, unless this is something that was cleared with the a GM aka Welian or Teh Frixz. Keep in mind extreme posts maybe nerfed if not taken up the chain. ALL that said. These are kids engaging in a very active obstacle course. Play realistically. Maybe they slipped and broke their nose. Maybe a fight breaks out on a team. We have a lot of volunteers and Staff that will love to have things they can post to, to interact with your characters!

Can they take off their limiter? Can they bring machines?

  • In character no instruction of yes or no will be given. Why? Because they want to see how the kids react. The students will be given directions but there is no clear explanation of how to pass. Though the implication is, finish the course. Much as in life, we are not always given all the details on how to do something or be successful. And much like life, there is not always a black and white, right and wrong way of doing things. Here are obstacles. Here is your safety gear. Here is your team, figure it out. Sink or swim. My advice would be, be true to your character. How would they react? Don't play this just to make your character the strongest, biggest or meanest. Be true to your character, while honoring your fellow writers. IF you have an very certain idea in mind, but are unsure it is okay, ask a GM.



If you have any other questions, feel free to hit Gus or me up on Discord or tag us here. Please keep in mind, my notifications are screwy. If you don't tag me, I very likely might not see it.
 
Bump.

Manic requested a thingy to put the NPC's FC and power. After playing with the code a bit, this is what I came up with:

iiNPC Card:
ffd377367e19eaf59d578f2d455862e3.jpg

--Name--

Name Spot

--Power--

Power Spot

Code:
[Div=Width: 600px; Height: 280px; background-color: lightblue; padding: 8px 12px 10px 10px; border-radius: 10px; border:2px solid navy; position: relative; left: 90px; display: inline-block;][COLOR=Transparent]ii[/COLOR][FONT=Comfortaa][SIZE=5]NPC Card:[/SIZE][/FONT][row][column=span3][div=border: 2px solid #454545; padding-bottom: 0px; height: 233px; margin-top: 10px;][IMG]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/ff/d3/77/ffd377367e19eaf59d578f2d455862e3.jpg[/IMG][/div][/column][div=border: 2px solid #454545; border-radius: 10px; padding-top: 30px; height: 203px; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 5px; margin-top: 10px;][column=span2]
[CENTER][B][FONT=Comfortaa][SIZE=6]--Name--[/SIZE][/FONT][/B]
[FONT=Comfortaa]
[SIZE=5]Name Spot[/SIZE][/FONT][/CENTER]
[/column][column=span3]
[CENTER][B][SIZE=6][FONT=Comfortaa]--Power--[/FONT][/SIZE][/B]
[FONT=Comfortaa]
[SIZE=5]Power Spot[/SIZE][/FONT][/CENTER]
[/column][/div][/row][/div]

It's supposed to go either in the start or end of the posts containing the NPC, and though I made it to not be too big, neither too small, you can also hide it with a spoiler tag and keep everything neatly and such. >w<

If your group has two NPC's, I could make it smaller so that the two 'ID's can fit beside each other in a single line~

And anyone who can't code and need me to adapt the border to their own FC (because the height differs, so you'll need to set the desired value), can also ask me to do it for them and I will gladly do so! OWO

PS: I have a suggestion! Make the BG color the color of the team from the spreadsheet~~
PS2: I can't make it look good on mobile, like everything I code >w<

I made a slight edit to my last Manami post. I was rushed last night and a key detail fell right out of my head in my haste to post.
