I hope everything's okay! I'll wait for you, my party planning buddy. :D

Yay, welcome back! :D *Jedi high five*

Okay, there seems to be considerable support for a holomovie being RPed through, so I had an idea. Everyone who's interested, send me an answer to the following questions as a private message. Do not discuss them amongst yourself or work for any kind of cohesiveness. All the answers will be included in the final description of the holomovie. All of them. Again, send your answers confidentially to me and I'll mash them all together.

1: What is the genre of the holomovie?
2: Who stars in the holomovie?
3: What is the grossest part of the holomovie?
4: What is the coolest part of the holomovie?
5: Why is the holomovie appropriate for children?
6: Why is it -not- appropriate for children?
7: How is the antagonist defeated?
8: Is the movie Good, Good-Bad or Bad-Bad?

the only thing i know of that is

1.horror
6.too gory

Make it all up, man. And send it to me in PM so it's secret. I'm going to just mash it all together in a horrible mess and then describe it for everyone.

Use your imagination and just make stuff up. There are no wrong answers.

i will think of something

Sorry I didn't get here sooner. I think this is a cool idea, but it's a bit overwhelming. I think whoever picked the movie would have tried to get "Space: The Sound of Music" or something cute for kids. Something overly mushy and unrealistic, but also showing evil "vanquished" by running away. In fact I think the Sound of Music would really mesh with the naive culture of the Jedi at various stages of their existence.

This is so perfectly spot on. I'm loling quietly to myself while I wait for my to-go order.

I mean, Bevik had never even heard of a 'movie' - but actually now that I'm thinking of it, this group of characters is ubiquitous. The Order has its 'fringe' personalities so this could be something odd and fun.

I'm not making my point very well. Trying to get food home to the fam. But I'll admit, I'm a sucker for anonymous questionnaires so I'm in! Lulz

...but I already listed the movies that Charlie has! If you want movies that don't involve axes, you gotta bring these yourselves. XD I kinda hoped you all will pick the Jedi Order romantic comedy! Or at least will be baffled by its existence.

But seriously, I tried with these names, gimme a cookie. :P

i say we should watch a parody of star wars

Guys, Steef just won.

i don't know

Cep, I just edited around your most recent post to date.
I thought it was pretty refreshing to read a few paragraphs all at once, tbh. So thanks!

So, I hate to do this but I think we should put the game on pause for a while. I've been speaking with a number of players and they're either not interested in going forward/making characters or they've gotten too busy with RL. I've tried to keep ahead of the player churn but it's gotten kind of ridiculous at this point. I'd like to try again and pick up from the arrival at Arkania when I can guarantee a stable cast of characters. Sorry everybody. I'm going to take responsibility on this one, apparently the system was a bit of a larger barrier than I thought it would be and the idea of having everyone trade master/student characters between players didn't work out and resulted in a lot of broken pairs.

When I can build up an active player base and guarantee some stability, I'll try again and those of you still interested can just jump in with the same continuity. Thanks, everybody.

It's understandable that many people drop games during autumn time, and it's far from the only game that suffered. And more importantly, it's really not your fault, Cep! The system might be a problem for some, but I imagine most players just don't have time to commit right now. And I loved the idea of mixed pairs, it sounded great! :D Even if it did cause some problems when people started to leave.

And I don't think one can ever know if they built a stable playerbase until said playerbase actually plays through few months. It seems to be a common occurence for newly joined players to drop out very quickly (I believe almost all of the games I'm in had it happen at least once, in fact). So don't feel like it's a failure or anything, it's just normal here! :D

Give me a poke when we start again! (Charlie will just exercise until we restart, and Lark seems to have detoured towards the engineering wing again. XD)

Ps: and also, if you ever want to make something of a sub-adventure - like these solo quests before Arkania one, except maybe for two-three characters? - I'd love to join! Wink-wink.

Lol, I'll let you know. It's too bad, I thought Feng Shui would really take off what with how simple it was compared to FFG and even the 5e conversion, but you're probably right.

Add me to your list anytime guys. I tend to stick around when I commit to something.

Hope this does start up again soon -

And FlyingSucculent... you've got class. Hope to game with you sometime soon.
