Yes, congrats, Az!  BS will

Yes, congrats, Az!  BS will kick 'em out of the bar when they get too drunk, Az will arrest them, then once they are in prison I'll teach 'em algebra.  Ha!

To DL; the debate is just that before you had a hissy fit and the game went belly up.  Now, I don't want this to start again on 'whos fault is it' or anything, so before you have the urge to explain/defend, I ll just say this; if something like this happens again, don't trip!  Just go with it.  The name of this game in particular is creativity, so even if someone oversteps the bounds of PC ... PC, just use it as a spring board.  That said, debate over.  You can come back in if you can play well with others.

I wouldn't call it a hissy fit, more like a minor misunderstanding that got blown completly out of proportsion, but whatever.  I'll try not to be so confusing.  So do we have to make new characters then?

That was completely uncalled for.

 

Az, I know you posted.  I was talking about the peolpe who haven't posted for days.  BS in particular just recently posted in another game.

@Dire Lemon, It helps if you

@Dire Lemon, It helps if you actually know what to post as well, and i think it wasn't uncalled for, it was a normal reply to tell you i was kinda busy.

@anybody in general, would it help to create some skeletons to guard the plaques we put u or something? Laughing out loud

Maybe give them boxing-gloves to make the damage they do subdual? Sticking out tongue

A normal reply to tell me

A normal reply to tell me you were kinda busy would have been "I'm kinda busy."  Instead you chose to react hostily and tell me I didn't have a life.  Usualy I'd assume that's just normal internet insensitivity except last time I was insensitive you got really angry at me and the whole game stopped.

You can and seem to wil

You can and seem to wil interpret my words any way you like, I was certainly not suggesting you don't have a life, i was merely suggesting i am very busy (in perhaps a rounsabout way).

I have the feeling from this time and the previous one, that you read things very personally and that you are a very touchy/ feely person who takes very quick offense at things said on the net.

I am not going to tell you to get a backbone, because that would again be to harsh probably (am i right?), but i do wish to ask you to read my words in a lighter spirit then you have thusfar been doing. It would make our lives much easier that way.

(if you want to do any further discussing, please not on this thread, Pm me is you must, but let the others not enjoy our "bickering" please)

On to my post:

I replied vaguely, as no one has really yet done any answer to how we are supposed to promote the 3 "projects", so instead i am hinting that i can arrange extra "security bodies", ooc: animate skeletons etc Laughing out loud

Manahu is pragmatic, and will use such "bodies"for a certain time only and then dispose of them, he does not want to have an army of undead, nor does he want to be seen as a full necromancer. but extra hands/ servants for a short period are always usefull.

I can equip them in such a way that they will do subdual damage per example, as i hinted in the idea of making them wear boxing gloves Sticking out tongue

Some ideas on the ingame stuff would be nice from the rest of the group.

Um... no, that's

Um... no, that's backwards.  You're the one who's getting worked up and defensive about a simple request for people to be considerate.  I just asked for people to post something OOC if they weren't going to post anything IC and you responded with:

There's only one reasonable way to interpret that.  As an insult.  Do you understand?

No reaction on my attempt to get ideas flowing? I will get then IC some action towards raising a few skellies, and making them subdual.

Hey you guys, I made a thread about this, but I wanted to ask you guys specifically, what is it that defines Planescape for you?  What is it that makes it special or just makes you like it?

Sorry, been working crazy

Sorry, been working crazy this week.

To Az; Red seems to be genuine, and the job seems both simple enough and with enough minor complications to be real.  Of course, there's nothing in her deal explicitly stating she actualy has to pay you guys anything, beyond the "free art supplies".

Sorry folks, but its the first week of school here and I've been super busy.  Too much so to get any creative juice flowing.  I'll try to post something in the next couple of days, tho.

Re: The Painted Cage OOC

Quite so.

Sorry I haven't posted pn PC lately. I haven't really decided on how to run the 'copy girl'. However I do it, it will set the stage for any that follow. I suppose I could have said the attempt failed, but that'd been lame.

Re: The Painted Cage OOC

Cool, this is interesting. Martin is most pleased with himself, and intrigued. Also, it seems I'm not getting email updates from the site again.

So Azure, what do you teach and how many classes do you have? If you don't mind me asking...

GED. high school, basically, but to adults. 40hrs a week, but I also have a second job. In fact I have to lave in about 15 min.

Ouch... Don't work yourself too hard. It's unhealthy.

How is teaching GED stuff? My first thought is that it would be something like college but with less advanced subjects, but I suppose I must take into account the fact that people would only be going to a class like that because they didn't complete high school... on the other hand it's like college in that it's not akin to prison. You aren't legally obligated to be there, so the people who actually come may be allot happier about it.

Heh heh heh.

Well, you are right in that it isn't akin to prison. In fact it IS a prison. I teach GED in a maximum security facility, so I'm locked in a room with 20 murders, rapists, and murdering rapists all day. Classes are mandatory for anyone without a HS diploma. I'd say about half of them actually do want their GEDs though.

Sorry, I really struggling to get the creative juices going on how to use sculpture to market specific times and places. I have one idea but I'm not playing it until just before one event and it may not go down well.

Re: The Painted Cage OOC

More a lack of inspiration than anything else really (Ironic considering the theme of this game). Anyone got suggestions on how to proceed?

Roleplay the situation with painting sister to help establish the characters' personalities?
