Sorry, I was quoting a few people and thought the colours might help differentiate who was saying what. I'm using a whilte background so maybe thats why.

Sorry for throwing the order off a little. The next post I make, I'll leave a little open-ended so that either Space Cowboy or @tzeenchianapostrophe can respond, and that way maybe Laughing Man can get a turn back, so to speak. Up to you two. Also, I'm with Sofa on the colors. The purple-type one I highlighted so I could read it. I'm using the normal BSN Theme. No worries, my main concern is a fun and reasonably well-written adventure, I'm starting to like the style of your character already... Haha, thanks!  I think you should be able to go up next now, but I'll defer to Space Cowboy I'm going to suggest that we keep to plain color text so that we don't create complexity? Does that work for everyone? That would be my preference. I understand he was color-coding to help differentiate character dialogue, but you're always gonna run into trouble using colors because there are so many different theme options. Not everyone will always be able to read the same colors.

You can just indicate that Sal says he will send a message indicating the new meeting place. New posting order LaughingMan, SmilesJA, SofaJockey, DragonRacer and SpaceCowboy. I'll sneak out in the confusion and set up the new meeting site, wait for the rest to arrive.

I'm up? ok... I'll jump back in in the morning EDIT: ok, it's late in the UK but the writing muse struck. There's a real balance to strike with this writing... you need to move the story forward but leave the plotting open enough not to commit other players to an action they do not choose.

Oh, SofaJockey, I do love your Delan. That has played deliciously into my plan of sheer chaos and fun. I think Aleeta will be quite amused and impressed as well.  Which, sadly, I will deploy in the morning as it's late for me now, but I'm on it, boys.

I guess 
I might have to make a third character because Skyla is quite Omega-centric and like id maybe prefer to join the first one because its further along and already set up, but if its any trouble im 100% fine with joining the second one its no problem either way for me

Space Cowboy , smilesja Are there tips to consider when to drop further characters in / or not to? And how many characters becomes unwieldy? Would this be for the story OP to decide? ?

Space Cowboy , smilesja Are there tips to consider when to drop further characters in / or not to? And how many characters becomes unwieldy? Would this be for the story OP to decide? ? Generally five is the maximum I've had experience with. The more people you get, the harder it is for each player to respond to the actions of all the other characters. This isn't always an issue, depending on what is going on with the story. That said, if someone else wants to join the tutorial I don't want to discourage them  The OP could decide, at some point, for the story they want to tell. If as small as two or as large as 5 fit what they have in mind for the story, then they will likely cap it once they have enough. I've added people during the course of the story, or had people leave in the middle, if it makes sense for their character to do so. You don't have to have a full roster to start out.

Ill join the second one then when it starts or whatever Maybe spacecowboy can even find a way to add one of your characters at a later point to our first RP thread. You should probably point to which character you most want to use so a sufficient "hook" can be arranged. Skyla is my tutorial character, Kalia is for the real thing when it starts bsn.boards.net/post/197866But if Kalia would fit better into the roleplay id be happy to use Kalia either... since its a tutorial I dont think it will be roleplay canon??? (Although personally id like to see a Delan Bork cameo in the future  ) But yeah I made Skyla for tutorials  so id prefer her but Kalia is ok with me too  Ill join the second one then when it starts or whatever You can still join the first one if you like. Or, maybe if you can think of a story, start the second one? Doesnt have to be a very set and detailed plot. I have only a vague idea what I want to do in the first one. Haha Plots I can do... but I dont think I know enough about the universe to do it properly  and bleh responsibility... im a more go with the flow kind of person

Er, so what's a 'tutorial' character as opposed to a 'non-tutorial' character? I'm just running with the Volus with no real sense of what's going to happen

I have only a vague idea what I want to do in the first one. As we are all n00bs here, it might be better to concentrate our efforts on one story for the meantime, besides didn't dragon racer say that she was going to take a week off soon? Adding a hook for one of XIV's characters might be the best solution, maybe we need the services of a specialized thief for some reason, etc. Yes, January 17th through the 23rd I'm going to be away and most likely not doing any BSNing, except the occasional look through posts if there's downtime. The majority of my time that week will be driving and then spending time with some peeps.  A road trip from Florida to Texas, thanks to Dad not really being able to handle planes = 30+ hour round-trip drive. I'm open to song suggestions, by the way, since I'm trying to make the ultimate playlist to keep from losing my sanity on that drive. Er, so what's a 'tutorial' character as opposed to a 'non-tutorial' character? I'm just running with the Volus with no real sense of what's going to happen Heh, same with my Turian. I wouldn't be opposed to using her in other stories/timelines. She's really the only character I've thought up for all this.

I'm open to song suggestions, by the way, since I'm trying to make the ultimate playlist to keep from losing my sanity on that drive. Wow, I think the longest time I spent driving was about five or six hours, I'm trying to imagine here what a 30 hour drive feels like... I imagine that at the very least you are going to make quite a few stops on the way. Hope your father appreciates the sacrifice... Haha, yeah! Our longest road trip was 3,000 miles in total, but that was at least spread over a 2-week period. This one is gonna be a mad dash 15.5 hours out over the majority of one day and roughly the same when we return. And given some circumstances, he can't help with the driving this time, so it'll be all me. But that's all right. I like driving, so hopefully I won't hate it by the time this is over.  And we'll definitely be taking food/gas breaks and smoking stops for him, but still... thank God for cruise control. LOL It was a bucket list thing for him, though, and he just turned 60... and we haven't been on a road trip since I got married almost 10 years ago, so... yeah, this'll be worth it to see him smile. He's so excited, he hasn't stopped posting on Facebook about it.

Coming to think of it now that ive realized that theres no difference between tutorial characters and normal characters (thank you SofaJockey  ) id prefer to use Kalia ... shes less scary and better natured, and will probably be more fun to roleplay, but im still fine with either just saying  I have no idea why I thought there was a difference between them  who knows what goes on in my brain That is, if I join this roleplay if theres an opening at some point
