second post for people not going will be up momentarily

anddd there we go!

The game is afoot!

welp

you got robbed again? have you guys never heard of padlocks

god.

Oh that's right, husbando does the radio tower & compass thing work now? or did all the compasses go missing before they could get handed out?

The moving along thread - how will we do the post order for that?

(Didn't wanna jump the gun and go first if there was a chance that'd biff things)

Solmedes no post order in event posts, just go ahead and tag in

what we go by is "go once before the mod/NPC goes"

GoggleDragon Nathaniel made more! And...someone stole them...

and yes they do work, the PCs can handwave getting them

Obzedat he doesn't want to lock it because it's for everyone D:<

but SOMEONE keeps taking all of them, instead of just the one they should logically need

Hmm. My sleepbrain might be to blame, but - you may have to explain that a different way, chief. I'm not sure I got it.

Okay, so we have eight people participating in this event, for example

instead of saying "Tobias first, then Meg, then Rob" and so on and so on, we just say "Okay, there's eight people. everyone just tag in once with what they are doing."

Imagine it more like rounds, instead of a set order?

and each NPC tag divides up the 'rounds'

this is mostly to help speed up the thread, as everyone has vastly different schedules, and with eight people if we had a set order we might be doing this thread into eternity

That I understand.
Does each tag need to be to the base thread, or do we do it like descending-latter style with each PC replying to the PC above?

decending-latter style

so it becomes one huge comment chain

(also sometimes I do skip over characters if it has been quite a bit of time and we need to keep going, but I try not to do that too much)

...I meant to type ladder, but yeah, sleepbrain. XD AND ALSO not the expected answer but got it and understood.

(or if it is logical for an NPC to go next, which happens more often)

So for example, in the current one, I'd hit up Megaera rather than the comment above her.

(Should I always tag the most recent comment when possible, then?)

yep

to both XD

unless an NPC tag says otherwise, which won't be happening this event

Got it. :|b Thank you!

orrrr if you like, wanted to have a side conversation with Tobias and Shooter, separate from the main group. Then you would tag Tobias and do a separate thread for it

That was one of the questions on my mind too, actually.

I think I understand it. :|b

awesome!

Though if a visual would help, browse the !event tag to look at past events and see how we did it

/deploys Megaera

OH ALSO it's the 'moving on' thread that is a free for all

the 'talk to NPCs' thread is individual

Got it. :|b

I might...just might...be able to squeeze out a quicktag or two. NekoIncardine - Shooter will recognize Meg. I dunno if this'll segue into individual thread, but-

I'm sleepy and not calculating right and don't know if I should ask first before presuming. BD;

sorry I got eaten by reading tabletop books

oh good the dragon is currently a human

that will prevent panic

Solmedes: They had a thread, so this fits

haha I said specifically that

Mitellux was gonna go in her human form XD

in the signups

if Mitellux didn't have human form she wouldn't have even signed up

/tosses in a Zuzu

OH RIGHT YOU DID

good thinking still |Db

Floogy: Mitellux's human form is adorable, BTW. XD

Yeah, that's the whole point

So people won't suspect her of ramming a knife into their spines if it becomes necessary

hydok you're the only one who hasn't gone o/

oops, I somehow missed this plurk!

now i begin

I almost said 'notice check' but I remembered that was a Blue Rose thing >T

TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE SEEKRIT IS

Sorry i broke the thread a bit but cellphone tagging and all

o/

are we waiting for an npc tag?

I was thinkin' so, myself.

/nodnods.

Because Mandy got in the car wreck, the event's been somewhat delayed.

... I knew nothing of this car wreck. and now that I know of it I'm hoping they'll be okay.

oh, i didn't realize mandy was npcing! sorry!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Mandy's running this one. /nodnods.

/pets

yeah sorry, my head is still scrambled

don't worry though, we're going to push back the event so that we don't have to do everything in like. One day or something

I should be good for tagging in another day or two too |Db it's just really hard for me to brain tags at the moment, I got a concussion in the accident

D: /h-holds and backpats my gosh don't even worry about that

just hopin' all will be well on your end.

yeah, i'm so sorry! i didn't realize you were doing all the npcing! just rest and recover!

husbando: ... I didn't realize it was a concussion, good god. Be safe, be well. ._.

yeah, everything will be alright. I just have to rest up a bit

NekoIncardine yeah, I smashed my head against my window in the impact and it left a nice-sized goose egg on my forehead

D:
