I have no clue. Aaron hasn't told us anything.

AAAAAGH!

Yay. YAY. My phone just bit the dust. A month after my laptop. This means I have no consistant internet access anymore. Yay.

So, sadly, after getting so goddamn lucky in getting that slot...

I have to drop out.

I really don't want to do this, nor do I want to hold up the game... Damnit, I REALLY wanted to play in this.

So sorry... but I have to drop out.

AAAAAGH!

I ship it.

BLAH! THE UNIVERSE IS CONSPIRING AGAINST US.

It's alright, neopie. We understand. We just need to find someone to fill the last slot.

[up][up][up][up][up] I think they are, for the most part, seeing as this time around the cards are from the Minor Arcana, whilst last time they were of the Major Arcana. So for the most part, the powerset is probably going to be different to fit with the theme and keep things interesting. However, seeing as tarot cards can symbolize a certain element/aspect of nature or a more abstract concept, it may cause some overlap seeing as some of the Minor Arcana are a bit similar to the Major Arcana.

I think last time there were a couple characters whose cards represented something similar and Aaron really had to stretch it when it came to creating the powers. I can't fully remember, though.

Alright, as i see the unfolding days in my head, assuming Crayon can get a sheet up quickly (And we really need her to) as well as my friend, who has told me he's applying today, i'll start this up Saturday, as three people won't be able to be here tomorrow.

Tomorrow, Contestants should receive P Ms of Tarot cards, powers and targets, and some Orchestra members can expect a PM as well. CG, Motree, you'll be recieving information about both subjects.

Motree, i still need that PM from you.

Another note: Because looking into it, i feel it's necessary to, the roster for each team will either be made public or go with the PM i'll be sending you tomorrow. Keep this in mind, as a key detail needs to be changed about the initial setting: If i remember correctly, i said you'd be waking up with team members in different rooms on different hotels. This will not be the case anymore. You'll be in the same hotel, on different floors.

[up]Think you can give her a text or something to let her know that we'd need a sheet by, like, tonight?

[up][up] Right, I'll get on that... Tonight, if I can. But I'll probably be able to get it to you by tomorrow evening at the latest.

Also, we need to find someone to fill in for neopie.

Yeah, I should be Gopher boy lmao. I probably could, if I tried really hard with it. How many characters are still needed for the Orchestra/OCMPA??

So far...

OCMPA = Full

Contestants = One needed

Orchestra = Initially needed only two more after Lucius posted his second character, but Crayon is taking a spot and a spot's reserved for The Third Rapture, who should be posting tonight.

So in other words, we just need a contestant spot filled, really.

Well, unless you feel like you're up to convincingly writing multiple characters, I'd just stick with Dominik. As fun as it can be... It can also be a giant pain in the ass sometimes.

More than Likely I'll just stick with Dominik. Save me the massive headache from switching between character personalities.. That and Dialogue is confusing as hell as it is....

What's so confusing? You just figure out what you're gonna say and slap a couple quotation marks around it.

Example: "He punched Gear in the face."

Or if you're writing in French, you would do it like this,

«Il a assommé Gear en face.»

Or in Japanese, you'd do it like this.

「 彼はギヤの顔をげんこつで殴りました。」

And yes, they're all the same sentence.

Oh my, I'm already starting to abuse characters, and the game hasn't even started yet.

Wow, I just noticed both my characters have shape-changing abilities... This might be interesting.

But I, being poor, have only my dreams. I have spread my dreams under your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

Crowley, spot's yours. Throw up a sheet ASAP.

[up] I'd say it'll be fast paced, but that's only because of the amount of players we have, and most of them you won't need to respond to.
