Turns of RP4 (Role Play Four)

Levelisk · October 7, 2001, 19:07

2103 to Hydro.

I hope I have the email right this time

Hydro · October 7, 2001, 19:37

RP4 2103 off to General Deimos.

Selling something? Moi? Perish the thought! Now, I might lease it, on very advantageous terms, however…

MY 2103 to Smack

Lease? Hmmm... How's the quality of goods coming out of Morgan Defense Industries? I may be tempted to accquire a non-trivial number of those "Screaming Banshee" Shard Fusion Assault Choppers under a Lend-Lease arrangement. When can we schedule the Flight and Assault trials?

Turn to Brendan 2103

Brendan · October 8, 2001, 22:46

Got a problem guys, when I tried to load the next turn my computer crashed and when I tried to reload it I was given a tampering warning. I'm willing to sacrafice my turn for the sake of game flow but I think I will be sending my turn to the next player.

Any suggestions?

Deimos · October 9, 2001, 00:24

No problem Brendan. Anyone who's played MP for a while has probably had the game/computer/os crash/lockup/freakout while loading or playing a turn at least a couple of times.

The tampering message is designed to let the other players know when someone has played the prior turn more than once. In instances like this, it's more annoyance than useful information.

What I do, and what I have seen most players do, is reboot and/or restart the game and just play their turn. I then mention the reload message and the reason for it in the turn thread. That's sufficent notice and explanation for most players.

Edit: This was my 500th post! Yea!

A link to 'Tales of RP04'

I consolidated our storyline so far...and I'll post the link to the story thread each turn-post here so it's easier to find.

Thanks for the help Deimos.

First of all: 2104 to Hive
Secondly: Storyline add tomorrow.
That is all. Dismissed.

Kassiopeia · October 22, 2001, 17:42

Hello?

Hydro · October 25, 2001, 12:53

TURN, TURN, WHO'S GOT THE TURN???

We've had a hiatus of 8 days. What's up with the delay?

I...I need my turn!

Hydro

Deimos · October 25, 2001, 13:20

Who's got the turn? Hmmm.... let's see...

Players, in turn order, are:

Gaians - Kassiopiea
Hive - SPasmofiT
University - Levelisk
Morgan - Hydro
Sparta - Deimos
Believers - Smack
PeaceKeepers - Brendan

Since Kassiopiea just posted a "Hello?" query and the last turn sent message was from Avenoct/Smack, it would follow that the turn is still with Brendan.

Since the delay has been over a week, I would like to put forth the motion that Avenoct send the turn to the CMN and we get rolling again. Do we have a second?

SPasmofiT · October 25, 2001, 14:07

I definitivly don't have it...

Levelisk · October 25, 2001, 14:17

I second that suggestion.

Kassiopeia · October 25, 2001, 15:52

I say, Avenoct resends the turn to the CMN, and someone email Brendan (I can do that)! Please?

Deimos · October 28, 2001, 00:01

I've emailed Smack to request that he forward the turn on to Googlie. I also cc:'d Googlie in on the email.

Hopefully, we will get back on track soon....

Googlie · October 28, 2001, 01:14

Got the e-mail and my breath is bated waiting for the turn

Hydro · October 28, 2001, 01:35

Breath is baited? Have you been eating worms again, Googlie?

Deimos · October 30, 2001, 18:38

General Deimos, Private Log

Well, the ops teams have reached UN HQ. They should have no problem accomplishing their mission: forment rebelion. Hopefully, it won't be long before the coup breaks out. At this point we don't know who will seize the reigns of power, but Commisioner Brendan's regime will be replaced.

-------
After nearly 2 weeks of stall time, I don't believe it to be out of line to call for a replacement. Do I hear a second?

Hydro · October 30, 2001, 19:33

Yes, my good General - you have a second. Two weeks seems like an eternity. Maybe our good game master DD could fill in for a turn or two? Or maybe we could draft one of the other RPers that don't happen to be in RP4?

Hydro (aka CEO "Do I have a deal for you!" Morgan)

Googlie · October 31, 2001, 03:25

Deimos:

Can you resend 2105 to Smack?

(He has deleted his turn, so in order to send it for me to apply antifreeze he'll need to replay it then send)

I've e-mailed Brendan to find out if he wants/intends to stay in the game - meanwhile I'll play the turn to get it moving again
