I think you may have Mar and Marcus here confused, since Mar is my character =P. Also I'm not adverse to trying to find a new player.

[Darius]

Gah- yes I do. Sorry about that.

[red_dr4g0n94]

Out of curiosity are we on hold until we find another player, or are we just waiting for someone in particular to post?

[Darius]

Yes- me. Expect a post tonight most likely.

[red_dr4g0n94]

Out of curiosity Darius how do you want us to handle improving our characters? Mar's been rolling his hard and sharp enough that he's at 5 already. Should I pick his improvement now or should I wait until the end of the session?

Apologies if most of my questions are in the core book, I only have the pdf darius linked at the beginning for the playbooks.

[Darius]

You pick it as soon as you have enough for it. If you are picking an improvement other than improving a stat or a new playbook move (i.e. you pick an improvement that leads to a holding, gang, etc) it won't show up immediately.

[Mercutio]

I decided on taking "Merciless." I should have improved after my last post, but didn't realize it. Anyway...

[red_dr4g0n94]

After thinking about it a bit I'm thinking I'm going to take the battlebabe move "Perfect Instincts". Also seeing that move reminds me that I haven't been factoring in using the MCs answers bonus for some of Mars moves.

[Daedalus]

I'm not sure whether you want me to roll a Acting Under Fire, Seize By Force, or Go Aggro, so just tell me what you want me to roll and I'll roll it here in the OOC.

[Darius]

It's Acting Under Fire if all you are doing is laying down suppressing fire. If you are trying inflict harm- that's seize by force. Going Aggro is when you are trying to get what you want through the threat of violence.

[Daedalus]

Alright then, rolling +Weird for Acting Under Fire (Thanks, Spooky Intense!) 8

EDIT: That's a Flinch, Hesitate, or Stall. Also, marking experience.

[red_dr4g0n94]

So just out of curiosity...where did everyone else go?

[Mercutio]

Wait - what? I know I wrote a post. I swear to god it even posted and that I looked at it in the completed thread, and that I edited out a typo.

[Darius]

Anyone heard from zachol? Either way, expect a post from me tomorrow.

[Darius]

Eh.. it was like tomorrow.

Here's the question: is there actual interest in keeping this game going? I'm still interested in running it, but if its going to be like pulling teeth to keep player interest, well, I'd like to know now.

For that matter, does anyone want to offer any feedback now as we proceed?

[red_dr4g0n94]

I'm still here and interested in playing. As for feedback I gotta say I like how you handle the world building aspects of the game very well. The combat descriptors are a little light for my taste personally but that's nothing major.

[Mercutio]

I'm a fan. I don't really have anything to say in the way of criticism, constructive or otherwise. The problems, such as they are, that plague all PBPs are less evident here, but certainly not absent completely. But I don't think there are any real solutions for them.

[zachol]

I'm fine, interested. I didn't post for a bit because I wanted to see what was happening, should've just posted "Doc hunkers down and keeps an eye out."

[red_dr4g0n94]

Out of curiosity, are we waiting for Nils to post, or for our illustrious MC?

[Darius]

I was waiting for Doc (zachol) to post, but will try to have something up tonight.

[Darius]

Apologies all around. just not going to happen tonight. If I tried, it would be flying monkeys throwing flaming poo and no one wants that.

[red_dr4g0n94]

Well, sorry that took me so long. I was kinda busy and then I forgot that I hadn't posted yet. My bad.
