Alright, here now and fully recapped. I'm feeling better, so I'm still planning on heading out for dinner later. But before then, I'm going to check on some things, and then see about working on a post.

Gonna be late with my post. Haven't decided on where Gon should respawn for the day.

Also am out for a while since I need to do something.

Okay, with that small post I'm going to get going for tonight. Tomorrow I don't expect to be on before work, so I'm sorry to say that I likely won't be on until after work, fairly late. Probably in the range of five hours or more later than when I got on today.

On the small bright side, I will probably have my schedule for next week by then.

Also I have the rules for the next day just about figured out finally; now I just need to finish actually typing them out. I also still need to find a suitable music theme for it...

@Ominae: So let me get this straight. You had Gon kidnapped from the hospital and killed, and then respawn... At the hospital. So that whole thing was just pointless?

And now, rather than ask Shenhua or Kamina or Caboose or heck even Delta about what's going on- you know, any of the adult figures who are still standing around- Gon decides to follow the ten year old who is clearly tired and upset and just trying to get some rest to ask him about what's going on.

It's like, you're either just plain not paying attention or you're selectively picking and choosing what you're going to pay attention to. It's getting truly ridiculous, Ominae.

Anyway, @Everyone: I'm here now and fully recapped. And I just realized that I forgot to actually write down my work schedule for next week while I was there, dang it. I did however take a look over it, and it's almost exactly the same as this current week; literally the only difference I remember is one shift (Monday's evening shift) ends half an hour later.

No. He got killed in the desert and got respawned there.

But he was talking to Digger and Spyro in response to things they were saying after they had just arrived outside the hospital. That's when you got him kidnapped.

EDIT: Well, I got distracted hanging out with my friends, but it's been quiet in here, so I'm gonna go ahead and get going for tonight. I might be on for a little bit before work tomorrow, but I'm not really planning on it; after work I'll almost certainly only have time for a single post then I'll have to go. So, sorry to say definitely no transition tomorrow.

But I should be able to finish up and post the transition someone on Sunday.

Wow, quiet today. Well, it is the weekend, but also I suspect many of you are probably just waiting on the transition now. Anyway, I'm here and fully recapped; got to clock out about half an hour early instead of going on break today. I'm just going to check on some things and then work on a quick post, then spend a little time getting some more work done on the transition stuff so that I'll have less to do after work tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow, I should of course be on way earlier than I am today; the shift ends a whopping seven hours earlier. Of course, I'll want a bath and then likely will try to nap for an hour or two before getting on my computer, but still, much earlier.

Also to clarify my work schedule for next week now that I've written it down: And my mistake, it's almost exactly the same except for two differences. So first, after tomorrow's shift will be a fairly long evening shift Monday, identical, somewhat long evenings shift Wednesday and Friday, then another fairly long evening shift next Saturday, and the somewhat short early shift next Sunday.

Here now, fully recapped. Something I completely forgot to mention previously: I've got a movie rented on DvD that I wanted to watch today, which I'll be getting to after I post up the transition stuff, which I'm planning to be my next post. I might also go out to the grocery store after the movie's done; point is, I'm gonna vanish for a few hours after the transition's up.

Which speaking of, I'm going to check on some things and then start working on that. I expect it's probably going to be at least an hour before it's up, but hopefully less than two hours.

Before the end of month, I'm taking the long weekend to Japan with my folks since Manila has two consecutive holidays that fall on a Monday.

Day eighteen, matters of size

  • Humanoid characters five feet tall or taller are reduced to one twelfth their size, or in other words, one foot becomes one inch. Non-humanoid characters in about the same size category have the same applied.
  • Humanoid characters one foot tall or shorter are increased to twelve times their size, or in other words, one inch becomes one foot. Non-humanoid characters in about the same size category have the same applied.
  • All characters in between remain the same size.
    • Characters who can change size, either as a direct skill or by different forms, have each size / form applied to the rules individually.
    • Items default to characters changing size will change appropriately, even if they are not currently on that person. Items gained while in the city will only change with them if specifically on them during the transition.
    • Normal complications possibly caused by this shrinking or enlarging will not occur, such as issues with the square cube law or proper air intake.
    • Characters who change size will have the size and effective power of any spells or special abilities scaled appropriately as well. Characters' mass changes proportionally as well, so none of that "same amount of mass concentrated into a tiny package" stuff.
  • The city and the buildings are still the same size as they normally are. The buildings are styled like giant toy boxes of sorts, with the furniture and contents inside changed to likewise look like giant toys.
  • Around the city are normal-sized books, laying open on the ground and sometimes over surfaces. If stepped upon, they will snap closed, like some kind of mouse trap; though given they are books with paper pages, this is unlikely to be fatal even to the shrunken characters.
  • Lastly, anything inedible your character ate during day seventeen due to its conditions will not suddenly turn inedible or toxic or whatever inside your character's stomach; items default to characters that were eaten during day seventeen are restored and returned to said character.

Now, unless I somehow missed posts, the following players will all be removed from the active list for not posting during Day 17: Udthe Imp, Nagisa Stick, and biomechtraveler.

As always, feel free to wrap up Day 17 stuff in handwaves, but you should refrain from having them go on especially long to just help avoid timey wimey shenanegians.

And thus with the new day coming back into place, I have decided to switch characters yet again. And now we are back to Vambre Warrior.

@Fantasy Liver: How did Riddler get up onto the desks to read the plaques?

EDIT: Anyway, I'm gonna get going for tonight. Tomorrow I'm probably not going to be on before work, so I likely won't be on until fairly late. Something like 1.5-2 hours later than when I put up the transition post is what I'm expecting.

Oh whoops I guess I didn't really think about that. I'd go ahead and edit it but I did just post about it twice. Could I say he got a boost from a big person or asked them what it said on the plaque?

@Fantasy Liver: I only didn't respond right away because as I had mentioned, I was going AFK right after my posting to watch a movie. Riddler hasn't really mentioned it out loud to anybody else so there wouldn't be any continuity errors with removing it from your posts; also everyone who is still normal size or grown is either nowhere near the library or still asleep, so that explanation wouldn't really work.

@Korodzik: I assume Garrett used some of his thief tool stuff to get up onto the central desks?

Anyway, I'm here now and fully recapped. Going to check on some things and then see about starting on a post. There's a thunderstorm going on here, so like, little bit of a chance that I'll be vanishing because of power / internet going out.

I've also edited my post, I might as well mention in this thread.

Anyway, I'm going to get going for tonight. Tomorrow I should be on way earlier, though I can't be certain exactly how much earlier; soon as I get up I plan on going out to get something done, then I'm going to go ahead and stop by the grocery store as long as I'm out driving. My alarm's set almost seven and a half hours earlier than when I got on today, but I'd expect this stuff to take anywhere from an hour and a half to three hours.

Here now, fully recapped. The combined going out didn't take as long as I expected, though it's good I still estimated more time since recapping once I got home took a bit. Anyway, I'm going to check on some things, and then see about working on a post.

Woop, meant to have that post up quite a while ago, but got distracted with stuff. Anyway, with that done I'm gonna get going for tonight.

Tomorrow's shift starts late enough that I think I'll actually be on for a while before work, around a couple hours earlier than I was on today. Though I don't know if I'll have time to get a post done; especially the mindscape combat considering it takes a bit of time to get all the rolling done. So I might make a post for other stuff and just leave that for after work.

As for after work, though I know the majority of you will be already in bed or about to be, so it isn't the biggest deal, but I will be staying up especially late since I have the day after tomorrow off and nothing to do on that day.

@Udthe Imp: You're not kicked out. You can return with Plague Knight whenever you want. I've just taken you off the active list because you didn't post in the main thread for a whole in-game day.

Anyway, popping in for a while before work. I'm going to check on some things and then see about making a quick post before I go.

If work goes as scheduled I probably won't be back online again until between 6-7 hours from now.
