Fine by me, there are even more spare characters beside Fletch to choose from. Unless he wants his own character of course.

I've been saying that for what? A month already?

If you guys think it best for me to read the whole thing, then I will respect that and read it, I was just worried I'd never catch up. But I'll read 'til my eyes bleed if I it'll catch me up

. As far as me taking up premade characters, I dunno, I guess I could - I might, however, want my own so I'd have to juggle characters... Then again, this system of RP seems to work in that manor anyways. Whatever though, I'm off to read. Hope to be posting soon.

***Earniel*** · 02-10-2006, 05:09 PM

Don't worry, I think you'll have enough time to read the game through properly. And whether you want to take over an existing character that the original player left behind, or whether you want to add your own character to the game, that is completely up to you.

Curubethion · 03-04-2006, 09:47 PM

SOMEBODY GET THIS THING STARTED AGAIN!!!

Telcontar_Dunedain · 03-05-2006, 10:54 AM

Has Tessar been on recently?

***Earniel*** · 03-09-2006, 07:12 AM

I PM'd Tessar last week or so. He expressed surprise that we were still interested in continuing.

I haven't heard of him since but maybe I shouldn't have threatened to hunt him down and haunt him for the rest of his live... My bad.

Why don't any of you try PM'ing him? It would serve as a good boot under the virtual butt.

(And if this doesn't bring him back to rain down on my like a Jupiter's perpetual storm, I don't know what will...)

Curubethion · 03-09-2006, 11:02 PM

What if he lets someone like you or TD take over GMing the RPG until he returns? Maybe you could ask him about that.

Telcontar_Dunedain · 03-10-2006, 01:26 PM

I PM'ed Tessar yesterday and will let you know when/if I get a reply.

***Tessar*** · 04-15-2006, 05:04 PM

I am, so, so sorry everyone.

I'm going to sit down right now, read what I need to read, and get a post cranked out.

***Tessar*** · 04-15-2006, 05:08 PM

Oh, Mouth of the Dark Lord. I don't know if you're still around, but if you'd like to join then by all means shoot me a character idea and we'll work you in

. I'm quite good at that sort of thing... *cough*

Curubethion · 04-16-2006, 12:32 AM

THE THREAD IS ALIVE!!!

Thank you, Tessar! I can't wait to get rolling again!
*repeatedly smacks into...the 90 second rule.*

Wow! what a way to restart it!

***Tessar*** · 04-16-2006, 01:08 AM

I'm glad you like it

. It was going to be a man, when I first planned it out forever ago, but today when I was writing the post it occured to me that I've never had a female 'bad-guy' in any of my stories.

***Earniel*** · 04-16-2006, 05:53 AM

You came back!

*tackles and hugs Tessar*

Great that you're still willing to continue and oooh, such an interesting development with the wicked elf-lady as well!

Telcontar_Dunedain · 04-16-2006, 06:56 AM

Brilliant post Tessar. Can't wait to see what follows.

***Tessar*** · 04-21-2006, 03:36 PM

I may vanish again (just for a bit this time) till around May 11th, guys. It looks like I have a vocal audition for the music program at my college coming up that day, and I'd like to try to make the date.

I had been expecting to have till July to get ready, but it looks like that may not happen.

I'll try to keep up with this, but I'm going to be busting my butt till the 11th getting my arias ready

.

***Earniel*** · 04-24-2006, 03:49 AM

Oh no, you won't. You just restarted the game (which reminds me, boots everyone under butt. Get postin'!) and you are not disappearing just like that again. *chains Tessar to thread*

You can practise here just as well.

Curubethion · 04-25-2006, 08:10 PM

*begins laughing and rolling around on the floor of the thread*
Oh, er...sorry about that...I forgot where I was for a few seconds.
Anyway, yes...Tessar, don't leave now!!
*boots 90 second rule in its main() function*

***Tessar*** · 04-28-2006, 11:06 AM

Shall try to hustle things along a bit this afternoon.

***Tessar*** · 04-29-2006, 02:04 AM

Whoop--sorry, guys. I fell asleep this afternoon, and I'm not really feeling great right now. Definitely not in the mood to write. I'll probably be busy all tomorrow, but if I'm feeling better and have a chance to write, I'll get something down.

***Earniel*** · 05-30-2006, 01:10 PM

So... anyone still here?

It feels like I'm asking that a lot in this game.
