two questions

[Erin H.]

1) Are we moving forward with the timeline? Tomorrow will be the second day since the OG came downstairs; what's gone on since then? Has the OG taken up residence downstairs? Are people mingling/spying/plotting?

which leads me on to...

2) Does anybody want to log with any of my characters? I've got tomorrow off so will have plenty of time to work out log ideas or write up starters - ping me if you're interested!

-Erin

[Fan']

There is a block of quarters on Level 2 that has opened up! Yes, the timeline is moving along.

And I would absolutely love some of yours! I was actually thinking of putting up an EP, since there is so much going on for people to talk about, but I strongly encourage several people to do just that! :)

[Erin H.]

EPs are a good idea! I can put one up with Hook as a general gathering-type one in one of the rec rooms or kitchens or something. 

[Fan']

So a GP, then? If you're doing a GP, there isn't much need for multiple EPs, just multiple TLs. In which case I say Go For It! I will definitely tag in with several of mine. :D

[Erin H.]

I will be completely honest, I still get EPs and GPs confused. XD

I'm good with either, do you think a GP would be better or should we just stick with EPs for already-decided-upon characters?

[rin gordon]

I have had every intention of putting up an Olivia-in-the-lab post, but haven't had the chance. She'll be looking for some scientists, but she could find other explorers instead.

[Erin H.]

Ooh, that sounds good! I'd like to see that!

[Tal]

I'm tagging everything, so go ahead : )

[Fan']

GPs are Gathering Posts, for everyone. EPs are... the other ones? (What does EP even stand for, I have no idea.)

GPs are good if enough people are interested! EPs are better to get interaction for your one character (or two, if you work two into the set-up). If you want to do a double EP with say, Hook and Chiana, I'd totally be up for it! Then people could tag her or him or both? I'd personally be up for a GP, though, as long as other people are up for it.

And btw, Jackson has spent, as promised, hours on a replicator until he got bourbon, and has every intention of offering Aria some.

[Tal]

Hannibal will have gotten himself a decent suit (in decent Hannibal colours) before trying to get decent wine from the replicator. But a suit first. And before that; an hour-long shower. :D

[Fan']

Cue in Chiana asking if he needs someone to scrub his back.

She insisted.

[Danielle Wooding]

The big difference between EPs and GPs is that a GP while posted by a single character is meant for multiple characters to tag into and top level with multiple characters responding to each top level. EPs, which I want to say are entrance posts, are posted by one character for individual characters to tag in and interact with only the original poster.

[Fan']

And OKAY SO. Two things I need feedback on:

1) it seems that the sleeping arrangements might not be what I just said, but I'm waiting for the guys to get back to me. In the meantime, let's see what you think of our two options. Either we say the station opens up a new block of living quarters on Level 2, or it doesn't and in that case, the OG needs to find places to crash, including NG quarters if the NG are inclined to share. The latter is more interesting for interaction purposes, but on the downside, we're already going to be backdating it if we start threading that tomorrow. So, what do you think? Which is your favourite option?

2) everybody that's interested in GPs (one in the lab, one in the kitchen?) to keep interaction going, raise your hands? If there isn't enough interest, we'll do EPs.

[Morag Hannah]

I'm around.

[Erin H.]

I love the hilarity of having to scramble to rearrange rooming and stuff... could we maybe hash it out OOC and then just refer to it IC when needed instead of having to backdate discussions or whatever? If that's not going to work I'm happy to go with the station opening enough rooms for everybody.

I'm totally up for GPs in the lab and kitchen!

[Tal]

GP in the kitchen, I'm all for. I often prefer GPs because there's more chance for threading and more accidental topics and people to come across.

As for sleeping arrangements, both my pups don't do sharing very well, so I'd be inclined to vote for a new quarters.

2013/8/18 Morag Hannah <morag....@gmail.com>

[Morag Hannah]

Surely not doing sharing very well is a reason to make 'em do it! (Though presumably it'd be on a voluntary basis; there are rec rooms and a few spares too).

It would amuse Erin and I if Lauren and Sam were obliged to bunk up.

Sadly for my evil intentions I do not think there's going to be a way to wrangle a similar arrangement for Pam and Santana, heh...

[Tal]

Mycroft would certainly endure it, though he would prefer to share with an NG temporarily. Hannibal might be inclined to kill his roomie. I agree that it would be fun, though, and I'm sure we could come up with something, and keep everyone alive, I just meant it for the purpose of moving forward. But yeah, I'm up for anything, of course :)

2013/8/18 Morag Hannah <morag....@gmail.com>

[Manya Soibelman]

1) I'm in favor of there not being enough room to go around, but like Morag said, sharing doesn't need to be compulsory. Hashing it out OOCly sounds good to me. 

2) I'd be interested in a GP! We could also have one for OG getting their stuff from the inventory room?

[Fan']

1) We could totally do option number two and hash it out in an ooc meme. I could put it up now?

2) Too many GPs and we might spread ourselves too thin, is my worry. I think we could use the lab and kitchen GPs to reference what the OG has gotten back from storage?

[Erin H.]

Memememememe!

And yeah, we could always have OGs arriving at either GP with their newly-liberated Stuff. If someone brings Hook his hook he will definitely spot you a shot.

[Morag Hannah]

If Spike sees Hook's hook first he's gonna steal it.

I mean he'll give it back. Eventually.

[Fan']

Well, now I vote that Spike sees Hook's hook first.

[Erin H.]

Hook: But this one is made of rusty tin foil! 

[Morag Hannah]

Spike: Oh, that's not rust; I was keeping some of Hannibal's blood pudding in it.

[Danielle Wooding]

I'm all for the more crowded option. Also I think 2 GPs in such different locations will be great and can encompass most of the scenarios we're trying to hit.

That said, who wants any of mine?

[Morag Hannah]

Up for any and all of anyone personally (though we're also still writing another one..)

[rin gordon]

OK! Lab post will go up in a couple of hours after I have put my little munchkin to bed.

Tal, I will be tagging Hannibal back with Mme Troi...how much turmoil/blackness/duplicity can she sense from him?

Also, who is ready for the THEY CANNOT BE TRUSTED DON'T TRUST THEM declaration from the ambassador?

And if anyone has any requests from Jack, lmk.

[Tal]

Haha. I have to admit, I didn't consider her special senses. I'd rather she didn't sense the gory details, but other than that... general untrustworthiness is fine. Something dark is fine. I dunno, something like that. :)

[Fan']

Living arrangements meme! http://thats-no-moon.dreamwidth.org/132554.html

Rin, I... want all of mine to meet Jack, really. >.>

[rin gordon]

Lab's up. Talk to Olivia, talk amongst yourselves. I'll be working through my backlog of tags :)

[Erin H.]

Kitchen GP is up as well! 

[Fan']

Awesome! *jumps on!* You guys should put TLs up for your characters so we can tag 'emmmmmmmmm. Says the girl dying to tag around. :) I've already given Jackson a TL in the lab GP, and I might put up a Chiana TL in the kitchen one, and then tag in on people's TLs with my NG and OG alike.

[rin gordon]

OH yes, I will put Olivia up.

[Danielle Wooding]

My two are in. :)

[Danielle Wooding]

Well...okay 4. Do I really have 5? How did that happen?

Also, what is OTA?

[Ria]

Open To All I'm guessing. That's what it stands for in mine as far as I'm concearned anyhow.

Rat's in but he's his usual mistrustful, surly self. I recommend throwing someone...sturdy at him.

[Erin H.]

How about fruit? I threw fruit at him. :D

[Erin H.]

OMG I've tagged everybody I'm so excited eeeeeeeee!

[Tal]

I'm a bit late, but I couldn't resist so I TLed now, and I'll tag around later :D:D

2013/8/19 Erin H. <eha...@gmail.com>

[Amanda Soehnlen]

Hey guys!

Right now I have signal if I stand on one foot and the phase of the moon is right, but as much as I have it, I'll be tagging! I'll be back to 100% on Saturday  :3

<3!

A

[Danielle Wooding]

I have a bunch of depressingly work related things to do this morning, but I will get back to all the things later. :D

[Fan']

@Amanda And this shall forever be called the Week of Flamingo Tagging.

@Nelle Good luck with that! (Also, yes, OTA = Open To All!)

[Danielle Wooding]

Oh my goodness. So many tags this morning. <3 

To be fair, they all came in last night, but my couch was way to comfortable to leave. XD

I'm having a lot of fun guys!

[Tal]

And I still feel I'm not tagging enough :)

2013/8/20 Danielle Wooding <autumn...@gmail.com>

[Fan']

This.

I mean, I kind of want to put up a GP (or EP) at the pool, since Chiana has probably been inviting half the station to stop by the next day. Which is now today in terms of game time.

[Erin H.]

YES DO IT. Pool party!!

[Tal]

Hahaha. My pups are so unsuitable for this. Which is... they would never get un-suited in public.

2013/8/20 Erin H. <eha...@gmail.com>

[Manya Soibelman]

Heh, same goes for Boyd, for different reasons.

[Danielle Wooding]

But would they come and watch? :)

[Fan']

They can still show up and have pool side cocktails/wine/beer/whatever rocks their socks in their long tees and fancy suits, respectably. ;)

(@Manya The day Steve spots Boyd's tattoo. You know it has to happen! Some day down the line, though, in a whiiiile.)

[Erin H.]

And drink fruity drinks?!

[Tal]

Of course Hannie will be there. For all the creepy reasons. But with appropriate summery suit, drinks and tapas. So that should be ok.

 

Mykey will be there too. For less creepy reasons. He really /hates/ not having cameras.

2013/8/20 Erin H. <eha...@gmail.com>

[Fan']

Your wishes are my command, folks. Have a pool party! http://edge-of-forever.dreamwidth.org/95368.html

[Manya Soibelman]

Boyd will eye the fruity cocktails with great suspicion and stick to beer. 

(@Fan' Oh yes, That Awkward Moment. I already have plans with Erik so we should discuss this. :D)
