Don't let me stop you! If you have an idea, go for it. If you don't, wait if you like.

Groin: Some things you'll want to take into account in your first post: Scarburg hall is a burned ruin, and makeshift tents, a "baker", and temporary everything.

Ah yes, I see I didn't put much detail into the halls description, sorry about that.

I'll edit it when I have some time.

I would have an idea if I had time to sit down and think and write, but I don't have time, so I am forced to wait.

Once more, I guess it boils down to whoever is here first with time and something to write, than that's the person to get a post in.

Folwren · 03-30-2008, 08:41 PM

Well, I've done it. I've taken the chances of being slapped on the hand and not only spoken for lord Eodwine, but also moved him. Er...I hope you're not too upset, Elempi. *Foley shrinks into a corner*

Anyway, when I first wrote the post, I had forgotten about Groin's recent one, but I've changed mine now. There should be stuff for other people to post now.

Nogrod · 03-31-2008, 12:31 AM

I'll try to reach up with this as well at last.

Btw. elempi, I also find Rowenna quite an interesting character so fear not that she would be sitting idly by as things go on... If Lommy (or someone else) doesn't insist I will take her to write...

Thinlómien · 03-31-2008, 03:14 AM

Does Lhuna (or Kath) want to take Harreld (and Garreth)? I can take them if no one wants them, but I think they would work fine just being NPCs. As for Falco, I think he should either be played or then he should leave, but having him as a random NPC would not work because of his personality. In principle I could (and would maybe even like to) play him, but I'm afraid I know too little of him and am bit reluctant to start playing him on those grounds especially as you LMP have played him for so long...

littlemanpoet · 03-31-2008, 08:59 AM

I had expected to post yesterday but came down with a very draining bug of some sort, and went to be very early.

Foley, your post is fine.

Noggie, cool!

Lommy, Falco has already threatened to leave once. I can write his departure back to the Shire before I'm done.

Maybe I'll get a chance to post today (still not feeling the greatest).

Sorry to dump it on you again, Elempi. I really had nothing else to say.

And I'm off tomorrow morning - off out of town. I'll be gone until late Saturday night, and probably won't get a chance to post anything until Sunday afternoon/evening.

Have fun while I'm away.

littlemanpoet · 04-04-2008, 03:18 PM

Am I still in charge of this?

I have only one more thing to add to this Day's action.

Does anybody else have more to write for toDay? If so, how many posts do you expect to write for this Day yet?

If we are to conclude this Day, do those who write here still want to "jump time"? Or do you want to start writing consecutive days like other rpgs?

If you want to jump time, how much time do you want to jump?

How much time and energy do you want to spend on the rebuilding of Scarburg?

If you can - for a while still - it would be appreciated. My next week and half / two weeks look just terrible as I seem to have more work there are hours in the days to do it. After that I'm ready to concentrate on this.

I think the basic idea of jumping time is good for this kind of writing but if we are to introduce some new players here it would be easier for them to join now than after a jump in time.

I'll ask Lommy tomorrow whether she has actually invited anyone of those we have spoken about so as to know should we wait for some people.

There should be no problem in changing the day though if it feels like this day is done.

To your last question: we should probably build it at least a day or two (they need not be consecutive days) just to make the possible new players more comfortable with the others and vice versa.

Folwren · 04-05-2008, 09:35 PM

I agree with what Nogrod said, but just wanted to suggest one thing:

I suggest going on just to the next day, so Groin can into his character and into the flow of the story and the writing and the other players. Groin, as well as any other new players, that is.

littlemanpoet · 04-06-2008, 05:40 PM

My next post requires nightfall. Therefore, Lommy's post must be answered by one from Kath or Luna (Luna? Are you sitll around?)

In case they can't write, I can try to contact one of them outside the 'downs and ask her to give me some answer I can edit into my post.

As for the invitations, I haven't actually invited anyone yet, but might do so. Everybody else, too, if you know people who you think should/could join, invite them. The more there is of us, the merrier it is.

Folwren · 04-07-2008, 11:48 AM

I think I'll invite Gwathagor. And there are one or two new people at the Golden Perch who's writing I like.

piosenniel · 04-07-2008, 01:00 PM

Yes, please do invite Gwathagor., Folwren.

I PM'd Eönwë, asking if he might like to participate - perhaps you could give him a nudge also. & shaggydog, too; I've sent him a PM also.

Thanks!

Great, I think I'll see if I can invite some people from outside the RPG's.

Kath · 04-08-2008, 08:40 AM

I can write a reply to Lommy at some point tonight, just give me some time to catch up!

littlemanpoet · 04-08-2008, 08:56 AM

I went ahead and posted anyway. I can always add into the beginning of my post if anybody wants to insert anything.

Groin Redbeard · 04-08-2008, 05:10 PM

It is official, Gwathagor said he'll come and check our thread out once he is done at the Golden Perch.

Lhunardawen · 04-08-2008, 09:02 PM

Hello, everyone. I'm still alive. I'm very sorry I've been absent for the past... *counts* 3 months. Frankly I never got the chance to log in here for most of that time, so busy school had been. The good thing is I'll have a relatively free summer, so please give me a few days to get myself acquainted with the changes so that I can catch up.

It feels good to be back here. I've really missed this RPG.

Gwathagor · 04-08-2008, 09:19 PM

Would there be a place for an elf here? He's a little intense and angsty right now, but I imagine he'll have mellowed out in the 77 or so years that have transpired between the Golden Perch and the Scarburg Mead Hall.

littlemanpoet · 04-09-2008, 03:58 AM

An Elf is permissible. Why he happens upon Scarburg would be an interesting tale in itself, I can imagine.

Welcome back, Lhuna. We're still champing at the bit on who Ginna is interested in.
