[S/D] Eureka Academy: Second Semester

Hey, guys, i got an exam tomorrow, so i cant post until tuesday (in hours... about 30 hours), so im sorry if im going to be holding people up
 
And Raistlin and Alyss are still waiting on Rose. Once she get's a post in, I'll post.

EDIT: And now that she's posted, you can expect a post up from me before the day is over with. :griin:

EDIT 2: And there you go. :grin: I'll work on another post from my teacher when everyone gets on the damned airship. :mokken:

I have posted, with deep breathing use!

And normal humans can hold their breath for 3 minutes under water. A kid can do that. They just need training, and it's generally a good idea to not do it in a week like a kid in a story I read. Tis possible, but not a good idea.
 
eeehm i believe you will find that after 3 minutes your brain starts to take serious damage:P But thats only on us muggles ofcourse:)

Rule of 3, an adult human can last for 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water and 30 days without food... Assuming after that he wakes up in a trauma ward:)
 
i was planning to post today, but i exhausted my writing ability with my exam and other rps that i havent posted in ages. ill write one lter, prob tomorrow
 
I'll make a post in EA2 sometime this week, cause I know I'm being waited on. :gasp:
Also, I have zero big plans for Estrella for most of that day, so if anyone wants to make plans with her and a character (currently not on a mission), I'm willing to see what we can come up with . :ryan:
​
 
Yeah i've been trying to come up with something... Problem i have is that i've been pretty much banhammered from interacting with the student base and Drach hasnt posed yet which means that Nelson is waiting for people to show up...

And all nova has to do today is plan some wetwork and i dont really want to start that until the second guy is also ready for it since planning an opp is alot of work... And requires alot of work to figure everything out... Since properly planning something like this requires me to figure out most of everything from, "what's the terrain like" to "what's the position of the moon" and "what's the temperature of the water" and "what's our exit strategy" preferably with a few backup plans on the latter and planning all of that (and thus gets close to godmodding...)
 
Lucky me, I have a student, a student teacher, and a staff member that is not a teacher and part of his job description is to interact with said students.

And I'm afraid Mishra won't have all that proper planning and such. If shit comes down, he'll just dissappear.
 
You both have teachers, interact! And Posting slowed down mostly due to my end seeing as I've been having internet troubles lately. I'll try bringing some fresh new ideas and posts in soon.
 
i posted something else that should generate some game, hopefully this wont be like the last time when my attempts to generate some gameplay got me yelled at;)

Here's to hoping people are subscribed to this thread and that we can shake some stuff loose...
 
You didnt get yelled at for generating gameplay. You got yelled at for generating gameplay, then complaining when the other rpers reacted in a way not to your liking.

In anycase Oli is busy with IRL things i think, so its safe to say that this RP is on hiatus until Oli gives the word

I think this was mostly the cause :hmmm: Although you weren't being yelled at, this is the internet :P

Yes indeed I do. Many of those things are very serious but I still find time to go on the forums to check up on things. Feel free to post anyone, anytime. I've been wondering whether to just end this RP. When I think about it the first one only got finished because I raged and annoyed all you posters to post like every chance I got but now I really don't have the time to beg and plead for posts. :sad2:

While I'd like the RP to go on, I really don't feel like hearing the phrases "I have to wait for ___" and "There's no inspiration" etc etc. There is a limit to how much I can take when it comes to that. Also, I originally planned to not start E2 until September of this year and I feel like ending the first one and immediately making the second just because people wanted me to was just a terrible idea. As a result we started out bad and I of course was stalling behind as I was nowhere near finished planning with the RP.

My own lack of posting and checking up is also an outcome of starting this too early and I knew I would need a break from EA despite wanting to start it early for others. In my eyes this RP had begun as a failure somewhat ashamed for not going with my gut and finishing it on my own time. I'm very sure a lot of returning RPers are probably tired of EA as well and needed a rest from it before they could commit to regularly posting.

But now that I'm busy with life I still have time to check up on things but wont be RPing as much until September of this year. The fate of EA2 is really a hard decision to make without the thoughts of you all. So I've decided to put it to a vote:

Please if you may, post whether you think I should end the role play altogether, wait for a while to reboot it, or to keep it "active"(Much more active than it is now). I will take the votes into account and then make a decision from there but I have strong feelings toward just ending it. Give me your thoughts on the matter.
 
Hey i wanted to generate some play and i did:) only problem i had with it was that at the time my subscription didnt work like it should've and i got a bit railroaded by everyone posting before i could get a word in edgewise:)

I think the problem with EA2 is mostly simular to the first one...

Open roleplaying with massive casts sounds like a really cool idea doesnt it? but fact of the matter is that (based on the observable evidence) it gets bogged down in alot of little roleplaying... You must remember those cliques from the last rp which had 2 or 3 roleplayers roleplaying a conversation in slow chat. It works, sure, but its not really time efficient from an irl-time versus ingame-time point of view...

Without some kind of plot to drive the story in a specific direction you end up with things like Nelson being alone in a room because no-one showed up, or if drach posts something it'd just be him and me shooting the breeze. Same with Nova right now all i can do is go and plan some wetwork and in order to that from an "non-godmod" standpoint i am dependant on the other player... And even if someone did show up all tha really happens is that we generate two more "mini role-play" bubbles...

Now i like this rp, and i think it can work (assuming we lay off the grandstanding and that was partially my fault) but we are going to need "work together" if you will to get it to work...
 
Honestly, EA requires the creator's input to make it an engaging storyline instead of a simple RP about school where we all have abilities. Yeah its an interesting dimension but I've been through high school and I don't want to relive that.

So the thing is, is that if you don't have time for it, then the RP suffers. So my vote is wait and reboot it when you have the time.
