Timeslip Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 For anyone interested, Long and I are having a heck of a lot of fun with what is turning into sort of a mutual exposition-fest in the A Change of Scenery storyline. As I'm pretty new to this whole storytelling-online thing, any feedback you folks have would be appreciated.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeslip Posted May 31, 2005 Author Share Posted May 31, 2005 The fun has continued, in Failure and Second Chances. This has definitely gone in directions that I didn't originally forsee...and I'm having a ball with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I don't think either of us saw this coming.. that's what's makin this such a blast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslip Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 We need to figure out how we're going to handle this wedding thing. Is it something where we're going to want to set a day so that everyone involved can post to it...'cause if so, it's time to start figuring out who is going to be there.

Sakurako Hino Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Good idea.I'm not sure on a date myself, for it seems whenever I come up with a date, something happenes where it gets all loused up. I think you guys should come up with it, then the visitors at your wedding will be all ready to go because they can make plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakurako Hino Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Okay, are we still on target for July 5th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslip Posted July 2, 2005 Author Share Posted July 2, 2005 That is indeed the plan. Long will kick off the thread sometime on the 3rd for early guests/arrivals, and the Main Deal will happen on the 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jager Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Ugh. The 5th is going to suck for me, but there's not getting around it. I will be working my ass off the 5th and 6th, but have the 7th and 8th off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakurako Hino Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Perhaps a slight delay is in order? My schedule would give me little lead time, I would end up dropping in for the ceremony and not be involved for much else.... Not what I wanted to do.We could say it happened on the 5th, but the RP would last a little longer than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singularity Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I think it goes without saying that the RPing will go far beyond the 5th.In fact I'm a little surprised we haven't started already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakurako Hino Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Well, if someone would toss up the thread, we'd get rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 that was my bad I was going to start things up at midnight but I had some problems. I then intended to start it up around 6 am when I got up. Work called and woke me up at 4 am though so I didn't get the chance to start anything. And yes I can definitely see the actualy RP taking a while..

Long Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Ok as far as I can see we are going to finish up the arrivals relatively quickly. The wedding is set for the fift, however giving us 2 days in the home. It's my idea that these will be skipped in favor of the ceremony beginning on the fifth, but should everyone agree I think there's some serious fun to be had with that many novas gathered in one place so we'll see.

Timeslip Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 OK, what I've done is excused Long and Timeslip from the main "Days in the Sun" thread. Guests can banter there until we can get back online (either tonight or tomorrow) and return from the ceremony itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay... weren't we invited to do so?It would be a better idea to fast-foreward to the reception. Where we can drop congrats there.And sorry for my lack of posts as well. I got triple-whammied.

Timeslip Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 Sorry about all the confusion. This thing got out of hand quickly.A traditional Shinto wedding has two stages. The first is the ritual ceremony itself, which is open only to the bride & groom, the priest, and a representative of each family (usually an older family member). The second is basically a sort of reception, where all of the guests are involved. It's something that I should have made clear here from the get-go, and failed to do so...my apologies.I've just posted to bring us all back in from the ceremony (only took three tries; the blasted board kept eating bits and chunks of my post).

Timeslip Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 OK, folks, how do we want to handle the presents thing? I've been a good girl and have avoided peeking in the presents thread in the OpNet section, so I'm pretty much going into this blind. Do the folks giving the presents want to handle describing them?

Sakurako Hino Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Well, it wouldn't hurt, and it'd give us a chance to interact with the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslip Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 Gift opening has begun. Best format is probably to dig out your gift and write up us opening the thing. Looks like Carver's going to kick it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeslip Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 Nicely done, Alchemist -- you took a "normal" wedding gift and turned it into something extraordinary. Nice touch with the children's sets, too, given Timeslip's first meeting with Alchemist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeslip Posted July 9, 2005 Author Share Posted July 9, 2005 Given how many times I have to edit -- and edit again -- various posts, not a big deal...and yeah, you picked the perfect book for Timeslip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Singularity Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Hm, I suppose I should explain something. The Ching of Tigger is a fictional book (hence the reference about Singularity and someone else working on it) that's a play on two real books: The Tao of Pooh The Te of Piglet Hence it's a bit of an in joke.

Alex Craft Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Gadgeteering, which I feel kind of dirty about using. /c:But, when all is said and done, each stud basically grants one or two dots of Armor (defined as probability manipulation), and the Luck power with an average four success per use (maximum of five successes). Since neither of these have a variable number of uses per scene, nor a quantum cost, the user doesn't actually have to do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeslip Posted July 9, 2005 Author Share Posted July 9, 2005 Re: Ching of Tigger. Well by gods, it bloody well should be a book...so when are you going to get cracking on that? Seriously, I know and love Tao of Pooh and Te of Piglet, and just about laughed my ass off when I saw the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
