Comments, Questions and Suggestions

Post by NoXion »

This is the thread where people can put their general comments on the setting, ask questions and provide suggestions for future articles and stories. Especially since I'm planning to renovate things a bit in here.

Keeps things neat, and I like feedback.

Concerning contribution, how would it work? Is there a thread that we post, do we send a draft of our idea to you via PM, or do we just post, and you can modify or such as you choose?

Also, is there any connection between that RP game you have going around and the Transhumanist stuff, or just put there for the sake of organization?

Concerning the RP, do we get to make our factions, and what rules are there for that if so?

When will we be starting? I'm unable to contact the others on Revleft (the site seems to be down), so I have no idea whether we're ready or not.

Do you guys mind other people coming in and joining?

On the other hand, this is gonna be interesting. I foresee a demographic change in the forums.

I think sending a draft via PM would be best, I can talk to the contributors directly before posting it up.

The game is set in the Nova Mundi universe, but what happens during the game is not necessarily what happens in "canon".
Concerning the RP, do we get to make our factions, and what rules are there for that if so?
You can create a faction in any unoccupied area, and the only requirement is that it fits within the limitations of the setting.

Since everyone sent their turns to me as PMs on Revleft, I can't use those. I still have access to the maps and images, plus I have the military units for everyone in notepad files on my computer, but apart from you and a couple of others I know no way of getting turns from players.

Not at all. You can join in as soon as I get this thing going.

I'm hoping we'll have some fun games.

Well, I just posted a suggestion in the roll call thread. It's about developing NPC countries a bit as well (especially their economy) so that there isn't such a huge gap between the players and the NPC countries. This is a bit of a burden, of course, so that might be a problem if you're already micromanaging the NPCs heavily (and I see you are).

Don't be afraid to create something if you think it's missing. If you have an idea for a new unit or something like that, run it past me. As for "heroes", there's no reason you can't RP them.

Although I was thinking of starting a smaller scale game sometime.

Any idea when the turn will be? Are we keeping to the same schedule, with turns every Sunday and Wednesday?

Technically the turn has already gone (Monday 00:00 GMT) but if your quick you may still have time to get your actions in.

Yes, I spoke to Noxion about this.

Wait, now I'm totally confused. Does this mean I'm pretty much shit out of luck with regards to playing out my actions?

EDIT: I think I don't actually get to officially jump in yet until Wednesday due to entering mid turn. Never mind.

You realize it still falls under the holidays, right? You don't need to have a worry fit because posting slacks during the final week of December.

While I share your sentiment, Moby, these fellows have a prior history playing this game on another forum that could lead them to believe that prolonged lapses in game activity herald doomy gloomy stuff. Insofar as I know there is in this instance no reason this should be true as it's probably just the holidays, but I don't fault them for worrying.

That's true. Noxion didn't always follow his 'deadlines' as GM. We've had one turn I remember nearing two weeks when Noxion had some stuff to focus on with work and such. He'll get it posted when ever he gets to it.

Granted, I overreacted a bit. I do always hate being that guy, the one always asking when the turn's coming, - and for the most part I'm pretty good about it. My apologies if I've offended anyone. ;)

Sorry for the lack of notice concerning my recent inactivity, but despite my financial difficulties I was able to have some fun off the internet over the recent holiday period. Also, Minecraft is a very moreish game.

Right now I need some solid rest, but I should be able to do the turn after I get up. Expect it either tonight or tomorrow morning GMT.
