So, so, so.

I'd like to aim for Saturday, May 16th late morning, early afternoon EST (which sort of accommodates everyone) for our next plotchat. Let me know if this will be an issue; I'll try to remind everyone as we draw closer.

Things I'd like to discuss in this chat: summer plot lines, any big ideas you have for the game (summer or otherwise), and the potential for a murder mystery.

Some ideas that we've stormed for the ( murder mystery )

So please, continue to storm away and gather up some ideas for our next chat. I'm really looking forward to getting back into playing mode.

I've been feeling a bit like an absentee mommy. Oh school. Anyhow...

1. I'd like to have a plotchat once the semester is done for everyone, so if you could let me know when the last day of your finals are I can figure out a date for a plotchat.

2. Speaking of the end of school... I'm trying to gear up for summer plots. I've been brainstorming some ideas, if anyone would be interested, maybe some overarching plots, or things that would effect the world so if you wanted to participate you could. I had this half assed idea about a murder mystery (because I've been watching Harper's Island), but I'm open to any ideas.

3. If you had some crazy legislation ideas, now would be the time to propose them. I'm thinking that our unnamed interim king isn't quite sure how to handle things and signs things into law because he or she would rather not argue about it.

4. As something of an addendum I've been debating the idea of an npc king (as opposed to a player character) and I think I've decided (with input from you guys) that it's a better idea. We all have access to the npc journal and could each have a hand in how the king is played and it won't rely on just one player (who may wish to leave the game or take an extended hiatus which would put the king out of play; I'd like to avoid that happening again).

So, I'd like to hash out some more ideas during our plotchat for the new king and we'll officially name the king in October (because that's usually when kings are named).


I think that was about it. If you have anything to add, please comment.

We'll have a plot chat next weekend: Sunday March 29th, 3pm EST. We should be there for a bit, so if you can come later and not at the start, hop on in.

I know a lot of us are wrapping up some older storyline ideas and will be looking for some new things to do. Please come with some ideas!

First: I made some (mostly minor) changes to the npc journals. I gave them a better layout and added some details to the npcs I added (making a master post for leos and one for parliament officials). I also added another permission to the npcs: adoptable. This option allows a player to pick up an npc for full time play if they desire (with or without changing the original concept of the character, with permission from the creator of course). Just make sure to specify if there are any requirements like permission, or if the character can be changed.

Second: Would we like to do another plotchat sometime soon? Is this weekend too soon? If yes, does next weekend work? Either way, would Saturday night (9pm EST) or Sunday afternoon (around 3 or 4 EST) work better? Please note: our chats do run at least 2 to 3 hours long (sometimes longer), so you don't have to be there right at the beginning. I know our timezones suck; I haven't found a good solution to work around it.

Third: There is no third. Just thought I should have a third, and then there wasn't one. I can say: I love some of the insano arcs going on right now and I can't wait to see what everyone has planned for their characters (y'know, outside of further torture).

As it turns out I am not going to be able to be a part of the chat tonight - I have previous engagements - but I would like to be in the one on the 2nd or 3rd.

Anyway, here are some ideas I had that could possibly be discussed:

-Cat-and-mouse like chase threads with Elliot and Ajax. They could happen in public places so others could join in - it could be quite funny to write/read about.

-I was thinking about how some of us could get our vampire characters together and start some sort of vampire coven...? It just seems like there are quite a few of them but none really interact with each other much, I think it'd be interesting to do something with.

-The discovery of scions! I think this could do a lot for generating plot for those of us with scion characters. It could possibly lead to some craziness in New Meridian - maybe even lead to them having to be tagged (like shifters).

From now until the chat on the 2nd/3rd I will think of some more ideas, this is just some stuff I plucked from my brain.

Feel free to comment here if you have any ideas to bounce off of these. Or new ideas having to do with me/my characters.

Hey gang. Our next plotchat will be tomorrow night, December 27th at 9pm EST (or the 28th at 1pm for our aussie pals). We may have an additional chat on the 2nd or 3rd if there is demand for those who can't make it tomorrow.

This plotchat has a homework assignment and a new rule:

The assignment: come with at least one idea to toss around, one thing you'd like to do with at least one of your characters or something you'd like to try in game.

The rule: I thought the chat would be a good place to bring up concerns, but after reading through the last few chats I think they're more counterproductive for the group. I think the plotchat should be strictly for plotting and a bit for player chitchat (since being able to talk about nothing important can build our group camaraderie).

I'll be posting a thread for the Candlement holiday; if you'd like this would be the place to share the wishes that your characters would make on that day. I'll post it on the 28th (probably at midnight, knowing I'll be awake).

I'm debating about posting a thread for gift exchanges on Yuletide. Considering the amount of gifts some of us have been picking out to share an open thread might be a good forum, however I know some of you would rather have your own posts for this stuff. Please let me know if an open thread is something you'd be interested in.

Other than that keep the crazy holiday posts rolling (I'm loving what's been happening so far) and I can't wait to see how we finish this year out.

Oh. Oh. Oh. I forgot again. We had some confusion over chat stuff (the last time I'll use the school ate my brains excuse until late January, I promise). Would y'all like to have our next chat before or after New Year's? If before I think the 27th at 8pm EST would be good. If after we can do the chat on the 2nd or the 3rd at 8pm (depending on how hung over everyone is).

Our next chat will be on Saturday at 8pm. My intention is to keep this chat to 2 or 3 hours (because I will have guests in my house and I imagine many of you will have Thanksgiving related things to do), however if you guys want to keep going please do, I'll just post the transcripts up until I leave and then you guys are welcome to post the rest or provide a summary or tell me no.
