General OOC chat

I just had this thought or vision of Dr Naochi going to the bar for a stiff drink and being grumpy...lol

It's just me that have crappy internet or throughout the forum some posts are blank?

I haven't seen any around, could you link to one?

Hmmm well oddly enough he's right. In this thread the two lasts posts by Socks and myself are blank pages. Hmmm I wonder if its Chrome?

Oh, I see it now. Weird! It's just.... not there at all.

Wow, and yes some of my posts in the threads have gone blank????

Same is happening when I lpok at the pages, even from my phone.

If I go to edit the post... nothing. It's just flat out gone :/

This is concerning, because there are those who haven't caught up yet that will never know what those posts said, as well as the fact that we don't know what's causing it so it might continue to happen, eating more posts until nothing's left...

I confirm that some post have been blanked throughout the forum...

For me there are 6 posts on page 28 of day 3, one on page 29, and two on this page...

Just to know, then, what did the erased posts say during day 28/29?

I don't remember what archeus said on the latest page, but I seem to recall that the military people were mostly just kind of faffing around waiting for inspection when Charon wandered over to be evaluated for fitness after his medical mishap and TM sent him on his way.

yes that´s what we did over the last few pages
waiting for the Overlord ^^

First of all i want you guys to know I should be coming back about now, secondly. I checkd with forumotion and this is a problem that's been going on across the board. They're working on fixing it but it will take time. In the meantime I am going to start a fresh thread, the current one is a bit too bogged down and my absence has made it a bit difficult to keep up with. Each department will have thier own thread. At the End of the thread I will announce who will be following Fox to the islands. those of you who do not "make the cut" Depending on the problems you have with your respective characters will be asked to stay in bootcamp a little while longer or re-roll your character.

odds are the people who are coming in on Day 2 will not make the cut simply because i haven't had the time to really assess your characters well enough. However this may change with the new threads so lets make this easy on me. Please also follow a posting order of some description. If you know how many people are in your group and who try to give them all a fair chance to post before posting again. It's not a hard rule but alot of "nothing" posts with one line that barely reacts to anything and you're just standing there not interacting, not really doing much of anything, I don't want to see it. When you have a valid interaction with another character then you can post, standing around and "drinking tea" posts where you interact with no-one but yourself in them, takes up space, and doesn't help me see how you react to other people.

Furthermore if make your posts COUNT. one-liners will hurt your final score and you may be left behind if it continues.

Military recruits, as a suggestion, and unless you're directly interacting with another character, how about the order of the round goes : Keir, Razor, Angus, Tamara, and I'll go/interject as needed. Otherwise I'll respond at the end of a round.

Sounds good in my ears

Ok, works for me

Sounds good over here!

How about the turn order for the R&D thread? I get the feeling that it's my turn to post there, but I'm not completely sure.

I'm going to try to stick with "whatever order as long as everyone else posts at least once" but an order is fine with me.

Solitair absolutely, jump in anytime. I'm more or less just trying to get things set up.

I agree. It's good to leave everyone the opportunity to speak, but sometimes if you just have to give an answer I don't mind overriding the order - as long as people don't monopolize the plot.

Just so y'all know I'm still here :3

Looking forward to having you around in the future Sylvian. I do appreciate your good natured way.

OK, well for better or worse I put up how I would present our idea. I figured in lieu of a real working mechanism through the magic of Animation we could have a realistic display showing our concept.
This is exactly how I would approach this IRL. And I couldn't help but throw some humor in as well.
It's just my nature.
