Round One Discussion

[DA 2009]

I uh... had my school bag on me when we were taken. Not arguing, just explaining the logic behind why I thought it. I'll fix it in a bunker though by losing the bag. I'll find a way to loot the shit out of it for the mp3 player and cell phone though.

Oh. Well, as long as you have your school bag on you, you can keep it. Anything you brought with you to the DA complex you get to keep and use in the game. I meant like the "survival bags" given out in previous years with the food and compass and stuff. Nobody got those this year.

Ok, I'll take out anything that might have been added and remove her memory of anything she might have read.

[Sage]

I'm sorry that last post was so long.

I hadn't realized I had so much ground to cover in such a short time.

The part toward the end is pretty weak, I know. Sorry.

*OMG eye bleed!!!*

No, it's fine. Like I said, people can make their posts as long as they want. I will read them, and I make it a personal policy not to skim.

[Jesper]

And length isn't a factor? It makes me nervous when my posts fall 1k+ words short of another person's for...whatever reason.

*OMG eye bleed!!!*

What was that phrase I told you on Instant Messenger the other week. Something getting sucked through my eye balls or something? Only reason I ask, because the quote made me think of it and laugh. xD

What she said.

[DA 2009]

Not really. More content means a better feel for the character, but that's about it. It's all about balance. If you can get across what you're trying to say in 800 words, that's great. But if you need 2,000 words to say it, that's fine too. The only time it becomes a problem is when you say something in 2,000 words that you could have said in 800 words, or you tried to say something in 800 words and you really needed 2,000.

Just stick to whatever works best for you. I find that writing tends to suffer for people who try to write towards another person's preferences or copy somebody else's style. Let it flow organically. *Zen master*

[DA 2009]

Oh, but they DO need to be at least 300 words. If your posts are short, word count them to be safe.

[Jesper]

Right. Okay, that makes sense. Thanks.

[Sage]

To Ashe, Sophia, and Kaden:

Sage says that getting dusted = real death. Assume she misread something in the rulebook but actually believes this is the truth. I RPed it so I'll try to make it work.

[Rem-13]

300 word RP oh yeah. :| I'm having a fantastic start.

Dusk is the beginning of evening.

Dawn is the beginning of morning.

[Piper Juunanagou]

Damn it, I have no idea how I missed that bit...that's, quite moronic on my part.

If I can, I can edit the few sentences that incorrectly apply to the time of day. Shouldn't be too hard to unflub that. =/

[DA 2009]

That's fine.

[Ashe]

By the way, fucking major grats on these Control Room roleplays. They are very immersive and I like the realism in that they aren't just the typical "One bad guy barking orders" of most writers in various anime (Frieza, Koola, Vejita, etc). They have a much bigger feel of a lot going on by a larger corporation and not just a couple of rich guys and I really like that.

Audric is pro.

I did it too>_>


Then again I can say that... they look the same on the sector...

Audric is rather cool, but that Mr. Drake is quite the handsome devil.

[Sage]

He's just like the real Josh, too.

"Oooh, what does this button do?!" :p

[Celena]

Having read the RP, I thought Josh Drake was based entirely off of Josh actually.
