OOC [OOC] - ISC Phoenix II Chatter

Luca

Luca

This leads to the Wiki Page and this is for Joint Posts when we have them.

I do declare this forum to be OPEN!

As I said, the prologue will be Posted on the 16th of December. However, just because that has happened doesn't mean we can't write the new crew member interviews somewhere ahead of time.

The 'interview' for the old guard of the ISC Phoenix will be much briefer, and can take place in the prologue, meanwhile the crew interviews can occur in the same thread as Joint Posts.

Of course, if you want to wait and stick to Single-Post interviewing, that's fine too.
 
Round 2 of the Interviews have been done! In this round...

Zeta Five (Bodyguard)
Boots and Somerset (Freespacers!)
Enzo Bortelli (Redeemed Ratbag)

Also, ladies, gents, I have an idea for mission structure.

In addition to a big "[Mission X]" post that will carry a bulk of the story and the "[Interlude X]" posts for large things less consequential, I propose that there are [Side Jobs].

The purpose of a Side Job is that Luca and One or Two other characters come along for an activity unrelated to the main plot that isn't too strenuous on their skills - be it a personal problem that needs counselling or something as simple as rescuing a cat from a tree, or investigating something small and getting it resolved in time for lunch, or book signing to keep the Phoenix Merchandise brand going.

As I said, the main idea is small, standalone, inconsequential tasks that seem like the sorts of things the Phoenix is handling when they're not doing anything heavier. I also figure its a way to show that between missions the team are still doing things.

Generally, they could be Joint Posts, or a small series of Single Posts.
 
Sounds good to me, I like the idea. Allows for a bit more....depth and interpersonal relationships where everyone isn't necessarily present or with branching scenes within the main plot area.
 
And now the plot is open.

Feel free to Single-Post to your heart's content.

Sorry I couldn't wrastle a Comic Cover together for this since I'm in the middle of a game jam, or something else cool to top this off, but I'll look for something in the future. :)

-Luca!
 
I'm becoming attached to the idea of Enzo not being able to see any of his precious Naoko in Vita, and therefore constantly writing her off as some brat.
 
Thank you Mog.

Speaking of which, Raz, Revolver, you two are yet to make a post in the current IC thread. This saddens me. I know you two are graceful in your natural element of JP's, but we are SP'ing now.

Revolver, you have a better excuse than Raz for not posting - you work for a living. As far as I know, Raz has no excuse for not posting. If you're busy with life's problems, just explain to me now and I'll keep you in the background.

If neither of you post however, both of your characters will be out at New Year's Day - my time.

Two for one deal indeed. Bah - hipsters...
 
I'll look into getting a post made between now and new years, but the holidays are sort of a thing and I've been busy with that and all the wonderful real life sorts of things that go along with seeing family and celebrating christmas. feliz navidad.
 
Yeah I just moved 3,000 miles to switch where I work for a living and it's Christmas. I've been watching the thread and haven't noticed anything prompt our response so it's not like we're holding anything up. But like Rev I will post before New Years.
 
I'll remember to write something to get the wallflowers involved when I post next, then, and I'll extend the deadline to January 7th. Most players don't need a prompt, but you'll get one.

Also, I might not be feeling much christmas cheer myself, but Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of my players! I hope Papa Crimbo gets you all something nice!

Seiren now has a requestbox open in the Wiki, located at the bottom of the Phoenix II page under History. If any character wants something from the lovable, pint-sized, crossdressing, and androgynous scamp, they can make the full request there.

HEY GUYS!

The ISC Phoenix Volume II has won an award in the 2012 Simulation Cup for Excellence in Readability.

You should all be proud of yourselves for contributing and making this happen, I couldn't have done it without you all!
 
Well, aren't we a snazzy bunch? I'm kinda surprised, considering the Phoenix II is only just starting out.
