Roleplaying-type stuff (straightfacing around your girlfriend's
roommate) I'll generally leave in your hands. I'll call for rolls when
I feel like I need them.
(Hint: there'll be Perception + Notice rolls soon.)
I'll be following Varyar's example and using the honour system.

Dang...
For the sake of our audience at home, I shoulda done the "reveal" that Richard's a ghost after revealing Bob can see him.
Expect a slight edit if I post a writeup.

I missed it by being sick and in bed. So at least you have a more fun excuse.

It's not reflected too much in the description (EDIT: Although, I
admit, that they could coincide in a "the writer interpretted things in
a way he could understand" sort of way ) ... just sort of came up with that one based on what little is fleshed out about Uncle Bob.
Glad to make your day, though! *chuckles*

That'd be Perception + Notice to spot the creepy pale people looking in the general direction of the group, Crazy.

Richard
Lets see if spotting gets easier...
Per+Notice=7
Roll=7!
Total=14
MoS=3! Wow...I need more points in notice.
So, do I spot the leeches in people clothing? Not like I can do a whole
lot...well I can trip them...maybe a complex pointed piece of wood
trap! Although willow did dust one with a pencil.

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
You
didn't hear the clearly ominous dialogue but you do pick up a bad vibe
from the couple. They were watching someone in your little group, and
have now ducked out of sight.
You can't make a positive ID as yet - this is mostly "for future reference" at present.
They don't appear to have seen you...

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
As
a side note, from Wednesday through sunday, I'll be out of town at Gen
Con, so I don't know how often I'll be able to get to a computer. So if
you want to have somebody out of the scene for some reason, it might be
a good idea.

Or, worse, be nice to you through the whole season.

Well, yes, obviously.
Soundtrack so far:
Four Star Mary, Dilate (a nod to the Buffyverse)
Queens of the Stone Age, No-One Knows
Foo Fighters, Monkeywrench
Anyone with a request, please make it.

It's a catchy beat.
And it's better than the song that's been bouncing around my brain all day.
No, I won't say what it is. Just that I hate VH1 for playing it over and over.

That is a great song.
Like Fortinbras, I will be at GenCon, probably not returning to
Internet access until Monday. (It's possible I'll have it at the con,
but nothing I'd want to count on.)

And cut! Move on to the next setup!
Having introduced some NPCs and been a tad foreboding, we're about ready to move to the next scene.
Any casting suggestions for the slightly odd hippy girl of Tim's dreams? I'm trying desperately not to cast Melissa Crider from The Others.

Melissa Cr... er....
Majandra Delfino or Linda Cardellini maybe?
(Or, perhaps Toby Lightman even if she's not actually an actress.)

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
Hey,
Varyar, is that a pun, or did you miss my slang? An "axe" is a guitar.
I didn't think it would create confusion so early in the campaign...

Oh, that kind of axe.
Sue me. This is an RPG forum, it breeds confusion I'll go fix the post. Or not, now that you've replied. ::sigh::

Understood. I just thought I had a good reply. We can let it drop, though.

If you guys wouldn't mind, just leave it, as I already replied to his

We both dropped out at the same time when our characters were dancing.
I thought other people might be suspicious IC, and decided to play on
it. Whether it actually signifies anything, I leave to your discretion.

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
I
am doing my best to keep up guys. I have no connection at home (I am
fighting with my cable internet company with a REAL axe as we speak, no
really). This shall soon be remedied. So if I am slow I apologize,
'cause I am having a blast. When I do get to check it's like a nice
wordy happy present waiting for me .
This is also my first one of these, now I know we haven't done any
kicking or stabbing but am I doing ok? Not that I could really kick or
stab ANYTHING. I checked the book and dude, Dawn could hand my ass to
me!

You're doing good. Of course, this is my first PBP as director, so I may not be.
The lack of kicky and stabby was part of the design - which is not to say that there won't be any action ever.

And when there is, we'll be in huge trouble. Unless I can commandeer a tank or something.

Not to worry.
Of course, this is the extended pilot, just at the start of Act II
of the first half, when it gets cut in two for subsequent showings.

As long as I am not the kicky and stabby, uh, bag.
Then again I am hot as hell, I am sure you'll conjure some horny brutes
eager to defend me from the *non-existant* uggie-buggies .
Oh, and I think you are doing peachy keen.

It's... some guy!
Specifically,
this is Alan, as played by... well, currently by nobody, because I'm
heroically resisting the temptation to cast Danny Strong in an in-joke.
But, yes, that's the kind of vibe I'm going for with this unfortunate bystander.

Sorry! Resident Assistant. Basically an student (sophomore or junior,
usually) responsible for all the other students on his floor/section of
the dorm. Sorting out minor problems, a pipeline to the adminstration
and staff, etc etc.

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
Influence for dealing with the Joe-man.
I'll say Influence:
Intel + Influence = 6
Roll = 10 (no kidding)
6 +10 = 16
Good, now... should I bother rolling to fool the wierd pale people?
EDIT: Aw, crap. I just remembered something. Heheh, well it probably can't kill me on this roll...

It was an audible mumble, Varyar.

Re: [Buffy OOC] Haunted
so everyone is clear Mackenzie didn't go to the bar.
and guys I do feel a little left out. I mean I check all the time and
just have nothing to post because my character gets completely ignored.
I don't know if this in an IC thing or because I haven't posted a lot
in the past.
Yeah, and one more thing, my character is not a bitch! She likes
everyone and is an eensy bit suspicious of Ben (someone pointed out
that she was kinda comming off bitchy). Like I said it is my first one
of these and I can't get 'tone' stuff down really good yet.
peace

I'd think it comes from not posting as much. The more you do IC, the more people have to respond to.
As for the appearance of bitchiness, maybe you could spell out Mack's
tone and attitude more clearly, so we have a bit more to go on. Tone
and body language are an important part of communication that doesn't
come across at all in PBP games unless it's stated.

Alright, I wasn't entirely sure. Darn.

I certainly don't think anyone's intentionally ignoring you Loxly, just
that alot of the game is silly banter or small comments and you tend to
post alot all at once.
Don't worry if what you want Mack to do or say isn't very important, just post what you think would be her reaction.
Also, things tend to slow down when the group splits up... or at least that's my experience.

No problem there!

You'll get it, and you're not doing bad at all to begin with. Please, keep trying!
