So yesterday I learned that when your dad is retiring from a 60+ year job, your oldest sister is having a baby next month, and your aunt comes to visit and have a family dinner because of both of those things, you're not going to be left with a lot of free time. Especially not when you're still planning on hanging out with friends afterward. Hence the lack of posting.

Also, copy-pasta of next week's schedule: Work once again hit me with the double edged sword that is less work and thus less earned but more free time. I only have work on Tuesday, and an early shift on Thursday. The RPGs with friends on Monday and Tuesday may be cancelled, due to one of them being sick currently, but I'll probably still be hanging out with the others anyway; RPG night on Friday is still going to be on. So like this week, it's entirely possible I just won't be able to post on Tuesday.

Here in TF2 MvM, I intend to post tonight, but I'm not sure how soon because I'm getting some of that selective writer's block again.

Chatty lot, aren't ya'? Anyway, quadruple post coming up for...

Week schedule copy-pasta: Stuff with friends is back on to regular schedule and not crazy rescheduling like last week, now that one of us is no longer sick. So stuff with friends should be going down on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday for sure. As for work, I have early shifts on both Monday and Thursday, and a regular shift on Tuesday. So for the third week in a row I may not be able to post at all on Tuesday. (I suspect that's going to be a regular thing; they seem to like putting me on that day.)

Anyway, here in the TF2 RP, since I need to go super early tonight and am waiting to let more people post anyway, I may not be posting tonight. I'll be trying to put one up tomorrow, regardless of others' posting or lack thereof.

Well... I think I can say that you don't need to always post what's going to happen on the week. Real life comes before R Ps, and it's not necessary to explain your schedule every time a new week begins. tongue

I do that so you guys know why I'm not posting certain times.

If I don't post other times it's probably because I got distracted by something. tongue

I have to think of a way for Jack to go away for awhile, I leave on the 26th for boot camp and won't get an opportunity to post for a good six months at least.

@Jashin: Easiest way to do that would probably be to have Jack die during this fight, since that would place him back in Teufort, then say he gets distracted with off-screen adventures for some time.

Also, good luck with boot camp! smile

@Gameknight: You do remember my mention that we aren't using literal Source engine physics, right?

Even extending to collision boxes? Okay.

Or there will be days like this where I get that selective writer's block. Managing to post a bunch over in my other RP, but whenever I think of posting here my mind goes blank. =/

Well, doesn't help that I'll be going out early tonight, due to early work tomorrow. I'll try to get a post up tomorrow after work.

@Gameknight: Indeed, there are no "hit boxes" or "collison boxes" in this RP. Hence my earlier shooting down of certain projectiles still getting direct hits five feet to the side of their target.

Well, meant to get some posting done today but got an unexpectedly high amount of distractions before game night with friends started; and now I pretty much have to get going for tonight so it's still not coming just yet on my part. Probably would have posted here days ago had I not slammed into a brick wall of writer's block around that time. Also meant to get this done sooner...

Weekly copy-pasta: Besides game night with friends today, game night tomorrow is back in schedule for now, and Friday is still definitely on. I also have work tomorrow and Friday, plus an early shift Thursday.

So as I guessed, tomorrow I may not be able to post at all, or at least not until fairly late. Gonna see about prioritizing this RP and the one I'm helping to run since they've fallen a bit behind in posting.

@Strat: The robots of group four are actually looking towards the engineer from group three, not the engineer from group five; which means they're looking right in Tux's direction.

Anyway, now that more than one of you have posted I'll be trying extra hard to get a post in today to keep things moving, but I'm not sure how soon that will be since I've got some selective writer's block at the moment.

Alright, thanks for letting us know rather than just leaving without saying anything. smile

Hmm... This means that there's now no more Player Characters on BLU...

Anyway, it's a lot later in the night than I meant it to, but I got that post out before bed!

Ah, you guys posted, but unfortunately I'm not going to be on long today because I need to go to bed super early for early work tomorrow. (Super early relative to when I usually go to bed, anyway.) So I probably won't be posting tonight.

Tomorrow I'm going to have plenty of free time after early work though, so I'll see about getting a post in then. Also, I'm going to be busy with work and friends and such on Friday and Saturday, but at our current rate of posting that might not end up mattering anyway. tongue

You know, we could sure use some more people in this here roleplay.

That would be nice, but I'm not sure how I would go about getting more people.

Anyway, my apologies about the delays; the last few days I've been getting bad writer's block in most of the RPs I'm in, and a boatload of general business/distractions due to stuff going on with friends. I'll see about getting a post up tomorrow, as I have time then and should hopefully be through most of the writer's block.

So long as at least three people still want to keep playing this, I'll keep running it, but I can't guarantee how regularly I'll post.

Whew, okay, that was a much bigger delay than I initially thought it would be. I kind of got really busy the last couple weeks with work and various real life things going on; this RP ended up taking a pretty low priority.

Blargh, kept meaning to post for this RP over the last few days; kept having either various distractions in real life or writer's block here.

The latter seems about done, so I'll be trying to get a post in after work tonight. That said, Gameknight and Bean, I don't really have anything to post for your characters right now unless either they decide on a course of action or you want me to like Chandler's Law you or something.

I'm sorry to have to do this Firock, but I don't think this R Ps gonna last much longer, plus playing in 2 R Ps is confusing.

I'll have to drop out. Again, sorry man.

I was getting the feeling this RP wouldn't stay afloat. Ah well, you win some you lose some, and it was fun while it lasted. Maybe I'll try a TF2 RP again sometime in the future. I'll see you guys around in other RPs.
