I'll PM hir and find out. Assuming nothing comes of it does someone want to become GM?

I could do it or a least be a co-GM bit I'd prefer not to if possible - I've got a lot of stuff on my plate as it is.

And I'm not really sure anyone here would put any faith in me, so I cannot take the position with this in mind.

I'm happy to let you have a crack at it and you don't have to do ot alone. We can all have a say on the general plot dirction and such. We should probably all vote on the GM though

I don't mean to be Rules Lawyer, but isn't it against rule 8 of the Role playing Rules to switch GM without the GM's approval?

Changes in GM: Sometimes a GM can't go on running a game, either because real life issues have to take precedence, because the game does not hold their interest anymore, because they feel they can't cope for whatever reason, and so on. In this case, they need to clearly state that they are ceding control of the RP to another player, with said players' consent.

Sunny has mysteriously gone AWOL, and is currently not present to actually pass the role of GM to someone else.

BTW, who should be the temporary GM until Sunny returns (or permanent GM if s/he doesn't)?

I am currently considering Nick or Lt.

I am not willing to let this RP die.

If I have to become GM to save it...well, I won't like it and I doubt many others would but I have decided I am willing to do it again.

I'll be happy to help GM it however with all the assignments that crop up throughout my week I can't guarantee I'd be very regular. I don't want this to die either, just can't be trusted to be a good full GM right now.

Nick, you have my keyboard.

If sunny isn't responding/posting then I don't see this as a major infraction of the forum rules. If he/she does reappear that's a different story but we shall see.

I'd say give it a few more days before we have someone take over as GM. Hopefully we'll hear back from sunny, if not I guess we can either wait some more or overthrow the RP.

Either's fine with me.

We had better think of something, since this isn't going to go anywhere anytime soon. I didn't join this RP only for it to disappear on me.

I've managed to stall the plot for a bit to introduce Deathpigeon's character, so we should have quite a bit of time.

Let's just take over for now to keep the RP alive until Sunny returns, and we can co-GM for the moment while we think of something.

Sounds like a like a plan. Let's focus on character development for a couple days to five Sunny a chance to return.

Though I would say we need something to happen at the Memorial...

I know, maybe the whole town turns out to be Brainwashed and Crazy, and the cult has them go berserk when a certain number of people turn up at the memorial!

TheHoboTortle from soft Since: Aug, 2013
#39: May 5th 2014 at 9:54:44 PM

Let's just agree on something and we'll roll with it. Right now, we're waiting for Deathpigeon's character to show up.

I'm thinking something like that, except the town is not crazy, and all of them are conspiring against us. The guy reading the book is just there to keep a lookout.

The town could just be a front for this branch of the cult with most of the 'townspeople' just being cultists in disguise.

I was thinking... something a little unorthodox, but similar to what we just said.

Think Hive Mind and you're sort of halfway there.

Ooh, so maybe they are acting as one being/etc. No set leader, more a general malevolent will... perhaps somekind of magical cultist corruption?

Hmm... sort of like just for that particular area, the Last Dance cultists positioned in Dawnrose City, sort of like that (They're gonna have multiple bases, aren't they? I'm assuming Dawnrose is one of them).

Think Hive Mind and Genius Loci, and you can work it out from there.

No, but seriously, sorry folks. I've been sick these past few days and let me tell you getting laid up with the worst stomach bug ever is NOT fun. But I'm better now, and we can keep this thang going.
