Phone post at work, I'm switching times with a coworker because they have something going on today. I'll be here three hours later than what I was scheduled before.

Okay, holy crap, I'm finally here. What was supposed to be three extra hours turned into almost four extra hours because the person who was gonna take over my position was running late; in fact she still hadn't shown up when the shift manager did let me actually leave, so. I guess on the bright side I'm no longer under on my hours for this week...

Anyway, I'm exhausted, but I'll try to start working on a post after I check up on discord; I'm also a bit distracted with laundry running.

Another post because a PM from ScorpioRat reminded me; I have edited the day rules slightly to include a bit about the calls home that I forgot to include before.

Also I want to do a reminder announcement about the upcoming Christmas and New Years hiatus, which I plan on starting this Sunday whenever I have to go for the night then.

EDIT: Alright, I'm gonna get going for tonight. Tomorrow I should be on earlier, probably like three hours earlier, give or take a while. It will also be back to going to bed early for more work Saturday and Sunday, though.

Alright, here and recapped; getting up took a while longer than I thought it would. I'm gonna check up on discord, and see about working on a post.

EDIT: And now I better get going, since it's back to work tomorrow. I should have my schedule for next week tomorrow, but, other than for letting you guys know when around when the hiatus should be starting Sunday night, it won't particularly matter, will it? tongue

As for when I'll be on after work tomorrow, probably a bit later than when I got on today, but not a whole lot later, I think.

Okay, I am here and recapped, though I'm not sure if I really have anything to post for at the moment. I'm gonna check on discord and think it over.

I have my schedule for next week, though only one day actually matters as far as posting, and that's Monday, which I have off. So thanks to that, I won't have to go to bed early tomorrow night, so there will be a few hours of extra time before the hiatus starts.

EDIT: Well, I did get a bit distracted and lost track of time, but there still isn't really anything for me to directly write a post in response to at the moment, so I'm gonna go ahead and get going for tonight.

Tomorrow's shift is scheduled to end about an hour earlier than today's shift was. I am planning on doing a couple things at home before getting on the computer, but that shouldn't add a lot of time, so I should still be on earlier than I was today.

Ended up having extra things to do after work than I was expecting today, mainly running by the grocery store and starting some laundry. Anyway, I have thought of something I'd like to post for the current goings on, so I'll start on that after I check up on discord.

REMEMBER FOLKS, later tonight before I go to bed, the hiatus begins!

Alright, with that post the hiatus is officially on! You are free to post in discussion and continue chatting in the discord, but for the sake of those who will be too busy with holidays to keep up, and otherwise give everyone a break, posting in the main thread will not be allowed until the hiatus is over. When it is over I will post as such here in discussion and edit out the warning in the main thread post.

Before then though, I will have a bit of a treat to post sometime in the evening on Christmas day; something that I did say I would make before the time came in the actual RP so that people could prepare ahead of time after all...

I should also announce here and in the signup thread that I am still considering closing signups and character switching around the start of Day 26; that won't be any sooner than February of next year though.

I hope you're all having a merry Christmas, or a good time with whatever holiday you are celebrating, or just a good day in general! For a Christmas treat today, I have prepared the necessary rules information for the arch nemesis day, so you all can be fully prepared ahead of time. I had agreed before that these would be posted before the actual day started, and it seems convenient as a Christmas treat, so.

Remember that these rules are NOT going to be in effect when the hiatus ends. They will be in effect on Day 26, which I do not intend to start until at least February.

Day twenty six rules, name to be determined, the nemesis day

  • Characters are their normal selves.

  • The city is its normal self.

  • For every character, somewhere random in the city, a copy of the most iconic rival/nemesis of that character is spawned in. Your character's own respective nemesis will be controlled by you.
    • This nemesis should be chosen from your character's canon only; as if the events of the RP had not and would not have happened.
    • This nemesis should be the most significant nemesis of your character's entire storyline, whether that means from the past, present, or future. If multiple forms of said nemesis are available, the nemesis should appear as whichever form they were in during the most iconic clash with your character.
    • All nemeses are still subject to the same limitations put on player characters during the signup process, and will have any such overpowered elements or abilities nerfed or outright removed, such as no reality warping. If you are in doubt about your particular nemesis, feel free to contact me privately, or ask in discussion, or the discord channel.
    • The nemesis should be a single individual, unless there is an applicable case of an inseperable duo or more that would apply for them just like in the signup process.
    • Speaking of inseperable duos, for those of you who are playing as more than one character, if all of your characters would have the same nemesis under these rules, then only one copy will be spawned, not multiple. If they would not have the same nemesis however, then one of each nemesis will be spawned.
    • It can be a one sided rivalry between your character and their nemesis; that is, the nemesis chosen should be the most significant nemesis to your character, but your character does not have to have been the most significant nemesis to them.
    • All of the nemeses have the same goal: To seek out and kill the character in the city that they are the nemesis of; even if this would be out of character for said nemesis.
    • All of the nemeses are on the same side, won't attack each other, are hostile to everyone in the city, and can tell who is a nemesis and who isn't; again, even in cases where this would be out of character for said nemesis. They will even work together, though will always be primarily focused on their own target.
    • The nemeses do not respawn, but any of the normal city residents (like your characters) who die while their nemesis is still alive, will not respawn until either their respective nemesis is dead, or the day ends. If the nemesis' own target is dead and they're still around, they will go ahead and help the other nemeses.

Remember that these rules are NOT going to be in effect when the hiatus ends. They will be in effect on Day 26, which I do not intend to start until at least February.

Alright, and along with that, I have my yearly Christmas tradition on TV Tropes, of wishing everyone merry Christmas from chiron beta prime.

See you all early January, have a wonderful New Years! grin

Minor announcement as I got my schedule for next week. Unfortunately resuming the RP will have to be on the 3rd, Thursday, not the 2nd, as I pretty much won't be online at all on the 2nd. As for when on the 3rd, oh, probably a couple hours earlier than when this post is going up, give or take a while.

Thankfully my week is fairly clear after that, with Friday and Saturday off; I'll have to go get something done one of those two days though I haven't quite decided which day yet. Sunday I have a fairly long early shift.

Hm, looks like my estimate from my last post was just wrong, since I'm earlier than it and I'm even running later than I should have been today, because I had to go get gas after work.

Anyway, I hope you all had a good holiday break; mine turned out a lot more busy than I'd like... Now, let's get the show back on the road. I don't have anything else to currently add to my previous post or put in a new one, so there won't be anything new from me just yet. Also in about an hour I'm actually going to leave to go see a movie, but after that I'm staying up late tonight.

The hiatus is now over!

EDIT: In part because I stayed up a bit late ranching some slimes, in part because the only NPC response I currently have to write for I wanted to let someone else have a chance to post for that scene before posting for it again, I'm gonna go ahead and get going for tonight. Tomorrow I'm sleeping in with no alarm set, and if I wake up early enough, which I think I will, I'll also be heading out shortly after getting up to take care of something. Anyway, so it's hard to say when I'll probably be online, though I think it will be earlier than I got on today.

Just got back from holiday in Japan.

Alright, I'm gonna get going for tonight. Tomorrow I don't have any plans to go out for anything, so I should probably be on earlier than today, but maybe not by a whole lot. I will have to go early tomorrow night because of work Sunday, though.

Okay, here and recapped. Gonna be checking on discord and then working on a post relatively soon.

EDIT: Well, gotta get going early tonight; would've put up a response to Makoto first, but I need more time to think on it than what I've got tonight. Tomorrow I shouldn't be on until probably a couple hours later than when I got on today; I don't know what my schedule for next week is yet, but I'll have it then. In the event that I have another early shift Monday, then I'm not going to be online for long tomorrow, but I should still be able to post at least once.

Ended up running even later than expected today because I realized I should go ahead and stop by the grocery store after work today. Anyway, I'm here and recapped, and I'm going to see about starting on a post after I check up on discord; I'm a bit distracted with laundry though and I'd like to contact one of my friends about something before I finish said post though.

Now, I have my schedule for next week, though I've been told that it could actually end up changing tomorrow. Tomorrow I have off, so what I'm gonna do is go ahead and go over to work to double check if the schedule changed while my boss is there, since I want to talk to her about something else as well, anyway.

If it does not change though, what I've got after that is: Tuesday a long evening shift. Wednesday a moderate evening shift. Thursday an extra long early shift. Then the rest of the week off. I should have time to hop on briefly before work Wednesday, but I won't be able to get on after work since I'll need to hit the hay early that night.

Of course, that's if the schedule does not change; if it does change, I'll mention the changes when I get on tomorrow.

EDIT: Okay, with that latest post I'm gonna get going for tonight. I'm not sure exactly when I'll be on tomorrow, but it should be earlier than today, probably by at least an hour if not more.

Alright, here and recapped; ended up with an extra stop today after figuring out changes to this week's schedule, which did change though not from what I was expecting. I'm swapping shifts with a coworker so now instead of the long evening shift Tuesday I'll have an extra long evening shift Friday. Otherwise it's the same, though the change means I'm gonna stay up as late as I want tonight.

Anyway, I do want to post, but I'm having trouble thinking of what exactly I should post at the moment. So I'm gonna check on discord and see about some other things while I think it over.

@Ominae: There isn't really a "downtown area" of the city and it would be kind of a moot point even if there was given the shifting around. That's something you really should understand by now. I'm also not sure what you and/or Gon is expecting with this whole, peeking into a bar thing; either it's gonna be empty or there's gonna be people just doing regular bar stuff.

Anyway, with that post I'll effectively be calling it for tonight. I'm not actually going to bed just yet, but putting words together for that post was hard enough, so that will definitely be my last for the night. I'm not sure when exactly I'll be on tomorrow, because I'm sleeping in with no alarm set. I expect it to be earlier than I got on today, but I can't be certain.

Well, I slept in more than I thought I was going to. On the plus side that means I'm feeling decent for once, but anyway, I'm gonna check on discord before seeing about a quick post.

EDIT: Okay, with that post I'll be calling it for tonight. Tomorrow I will be on briefly before work; should be at least a couple hours earlier than when I got on today. I won't be on at all after work though, since I have to go to bed early for Thursday's shift.

Alright, just popping in for a little while before work. Gonna check on discord and see about making a small post. As mentioned, I shouldn't be able to post later, so I won't be back until tomorrow. Probably around an hour later than when I'm hopping on right now, is my guess.

Sorry man about the downtown part.

And on the bar, I'm allowed to control things there? Gon's off doing his own thing.

@Ominae: As long as you don't go crazy and try to put in something that shouldn't be there, yes.

@Fergard Stratoavis: Unless I'm mistaken, Rean took the others upstairs for his call, and there wouldn't be any tables up there.

Anyway, I'm here now and recapped. Gonna check on discord and start working on a post, which hopefully won't take long.

EDIT: Alright, that will be my last post for tonight. Tomorrow I'm not going to be on until after work, and as it's a late going evening shift that means I'm not going to be online until on the pretty late side. Best estimate is in the ballpark of six hours later than when I got on today.

Okay, here now and fully recapped. I'm gonna check on discord and then see about working on a post; I'm a bit distracted with laundry and still thinking of exactly what I want to post, so it might be a bit.

While I'm here though, I have my schedule for next week. As a reminder, I have the next couple of days off, with nothing in particular planned other than maybe a trip to the grocery store. Monday I have a moderate evening shift; then Tuesday a long evening shift. After Wednesday off, I've got an extra long early shift Thursday, and a long early shift next Friday. Next Saturday is an absurdly short evening shift, then next Sunday is off.

Thankfully no day gets completely screwed, though Wednesday and Thursday I probably won't be on as much as usual. Monday I should have time to briefly hop on before work, too. I'm gonna try to go get something done after work Friday, but if I end up not having the time then I'll be getting up earlier than usual Saturday to get it done before work then.

EDIT: Got distracted with some stuff and stayed up later than I meant to, so it's a good thing I have nothing important happening for the next couple of days. Anyway, I'm sleeping in tomorrow with no alarm set, so I can't make any decent estimate as to when I'll be on. It should be earlier than I got on today though, of course.

Alright, here now. Actually didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night; technically woke up like a couple of hours ago, but couldn't get back to sleep. I don't feel too bad so whatever, but I'm definitely not fully here. Anyway, I'm not sure what or even if I really have anything to post at the moment, so I'm probably gonna kill some time for a while regardless.

EDIT: Well, I'm gonna go ahead and call it for the night now. Once again I'll be sleeping in with no alarm set tomorrow, but I think I'll be online earlier than I was today.

Argh, so much for being on earlier. Sleep was on and off because of noisy nieces upstairs so I didn't actually get as much sleep for as much time as I was in bed. Anyway, I'm gonna check on discord and think about what to post, as I'm feeling out of it at the moment.

EDIT: okay, well I should get going for tonight. Tomorrow I should be able to hop on before work, which should be at least a couple hours earlier than when I got on tonight; I can't guarantee though that I'll actually have time to make a whole post before leaving to work. I will at least save any post in progress in a text document so I can finish it up after I get back from work.

Quick phone post, I think I'd rather wait to let a few more people have a chance to post, plus there's something I could go ahead and get done with the extra time before work, rather than wait until after work. So I'll be back later, probably around six hours.
