MINGLE #2

[footkind]

Use this post to mingle and meet with each other! For the coding to make your tags MSPA-style use the box below:

<b><font face="courier,monospace" color="#HEX">

There is no set time line for these interactions but the game has not been launched yet and no one but the Beta(s) should know they are prepared to hack the game. For human/troll interactions try to keep I AM AN ALIENNNN to a minimum, or at least be realistic--would YOU believe someone was an alien if the IM'd you and told you they were?

This iteration of the mingle post will include sections for each team to help everyone figure out what do! You don't need to reply to these but I think it might be helpful c: You may create your own sections for your characters as well!

Yes. Therefore, to not play would be to be doomed along with Alternia.
If we do not play, we will then meet with certain doom; if we do play, it is only uncertain doom.

i suppose uncertain doom is margina||y better
on|y margina||y

[austereastronomer]

That's pretty much how I see it.
At least this way we have a chance.
That, and it seems that if we can pull it off it will pay off.
Do you know who else is playing?
Phaest mentioned Merzet was in, but that's all I know aside from the two of us.

[deadpanlife]

i know she invited Samsra and Preta
probab|y Ka|four too

You would prefer to leave the CRAZY MURDERER and the GHOST FETISHISTS behind, but whatever, you guess people are going to want to bring their moirails along for the end of the world. BLUH BLUH QUADRANTS.

So that's... seven or so, unless I'm missing someone.
It's kind of strange to think that that's all that'll be left of everyone living on Alternia.
A brutal end for a brutal world.

[deadpanlife]

It's not so much strange for you as it is incredibly surreal and difficult to think about. You don't like the idea of a brutal end for anything, even for a place like Alternia.

yeah
to be honest as uncertain as our doom in the game wi|| be
the more i think about it the |ower our chances seem

[austereastronomer]

What makes you say that, in particular?

[deadpanlife]

i mean, considering
everyone e|se in this group
i'm a |ittle worried we might not get anything done in the game
but i'm just being pessimistic

[austereastronomer]

That worries me also.
Thankfully there are at least us two with level heads.
But I'm worried about the fact that we have so little time to prepare, and so little idea of what we're going to face.

[deadpanlife]

do we have any idea what to expect, anyway?

[austereastronomer]

All I've been able to gather is more or less what we've discussed.
I'd really feel more comfortable with this whole thing if we had a walkthrough, or something.
Or even the faintest idea of what exactly the rules and parameters of this game are.

[deadpanlife]

yeah
though if that were the case, it'd defy the point of it being an "adventure"
i guess

[austereastronomer]

Adventure is overrated, but try telling that to most people.
Whether it's an adventure or not, though, it's something we will have to deal with one way or another.
