Even so, you two should try to be more open to what us players post up.
It's basically pushed forwards by the players, and finding ways to build off what they post up would really encourage people to post up quality and creative posts, instead of the usual "I comply with where the story is going."
For example, you could have taken what I had posted, ran with it, and introduced Jetrall as a ranger from the woods hunting Riddians, and happened upon them as we were fighting, or a traitor Riddian soldier, even a woodland hermit defending his home.
Not to say how you're running things is bad, but you need to try to be more open to what we the players post, since the RP is focused on, and pushed forwards by the players.
If you don't get what I mean, basically picture you and Jetrall sitting here pushing a story forwards with nobody to actually take part in it.

I was under the assumption that some of you were going for the outpost, and the rest of us were waiting near the front gate?
At least that's what I gathered from your planning, might have to re-read that.
You said something about people volunteering to take the outpost, and a couple people did so, so I assumed that the rest of us were doing something else.
Oh well.

"I will lead the small group that enters through the western gate." Buliwyf said. "We must make it to the north gate at all costs."
"Lento will lead the main force in the assault of the north gate." he said. "Ride in when i blow this horn, signalling you to attack."
Something along those lines may have been what threw me off....

As long as we keep massive physically-impossible-to-wield swords out of our RP, I'm down with Anime.
I've gotta say, massive swords is what makes me loathe anime.

Haha, so glad to have finally escaped the clutches of dial up...
And even happier to finally be back into this community ^^.
You never realize how badly you've got the forum addiction till you wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat, with Diablo written in shit on your wall.
Oh well, thats all over now.
And yeah... seems everyone just kinda skipped over our volunteering, didn't Elfen even say "Sure, you can do it" before? Stormcat also participated in this pre-planning, oh well.
Anywho! I'm sure we'll still get to do all kinds of badass shit, we'll group up in town and murder Riddians ^^.

Holy shit you guys, very sorry for that massive leave of absence.
But I'm back now, with shiny new internet.
Finally crawled out of the cesspool that is dial up ^^.
Anywho, reading the story thread atm, hoping I didn't miss much.
Uhh.... so I guess the whole plan of Party_Foul, Donsro and I attacking the western side has been completely thrown out the window? Were people even aware that we had already volunteered for that?

Godammit!
K, so my dial up is down. And it's going to be several days till I can get DSL.
At the library right now... fucking everyone is playing online poker, this place is like a casino.
Seriously, NOBODY is actually studying.
Guess I can't complain though, I'm not studying either.
SO YEAH, will be a while till I can post once more with any consistancy :(.

Naw, I think 2 is fine.
With 3, it would be harder to keep the story going in one direction.
Plus, how fast do we need it to go?
I think it's going at a pretty steady pace right now, dunno what others think.
@Donsro & Elfen
Of course the canoe plan isn't the only way, was merely tossing it out there to get my ideas down, and start off the planning process.
Didn't mean for it to sound all "No, THIS is how we're fucking doing it." but oh well.

Oooh... you working in the new character that Jetrall has in the works?
Well christ, it's clear now
My bad lol.
Who makes up this main force anyways?

Good idea introducing some forest patrols into the mix, was getting boring for us folk waiting on the outpost crowd :D.
Word of advice though, Jamis didn't fall in battle, he died in bed. Gonna wait till after our battle till I react to that.
I've gotta say, massive swords is what makes me loathe anime.
Oh well, Seth's RP is still an option.
And even happier to finally be back into this community ^^.

If not... I guess we could find him in a coma or something.
Spammed from time to time, but kicked ass.
Hopefully we can work him into the story, perhaps he could be a prisoner from Tappas being held in Riddia?
