Hey

The weekend update will be completed between 5 and 7 am tomorrow morning as I have been called into work tonight.  So if you haven’t been added/paid before that don’t worry I will get to it when I get home.

Blah blah thursday updates. There’s an ambush no one’s written yet, and hopefully it will be done by tomorrow morning, at which time I shall finish the update.

Update done. Two events, one battle.

As a note I am getting real real tired of late late night updates. I’m looking at you, writers.

I hate to be down on you, and some of you are indeed decently fast, but some of you are not, and it should not take 6+ hours to write anything short of a gigantically massive attack.

I cannot keep staying up until 1-2 AM to complete updates. Not won’t, -can’t-. It stresses me out, it makes me tired, and then I make mistakes.

We need to get things rolling smoother before the end of the summer, cause if we don’t, then this RPG will have to stop at the start of the school year when a decent portion of the battle writers will become busy with high school and college. XP

We are in no danger of closing at the moment, but this is a problem, and it needs to be fixed because it will become a danger in time.

Fucking Up.

One of the great things about being staff for this game, is getting to do stuff that makes the players happy. Big events, designing upgrades they want, and in general trying to promote an environment where everybody can enjoy themselves.

The downside of this though is when we screw up, it tends to be on a big scale. In this case Ravage was the victim of this screw up. Basically Ravage was told that he got to pick a ship instead of just the cash prize. It turns out he didn’t, and when he was upset about this he got pilloried.

Ravage, I apologize for what happened. I apologize that we even insinuated you were trying to weasel something you shouldn’t have, let alone flat out stated so.

I hope this sets the record straight though, and I hope that you will continue to play and contribute to this game as you have.

Inactives.

It’s with a heavy heart I announce our first round of inactives.

If we don’t hear back from these guys by the end of this weekend (Sunday), they will be dropped soon afterward.

If you know any of these pilots, please let them know we miss them, and want them back.

The List:

Correl
Crossbone X-1
Deathscythe
Gromlin
Impulse
Plutone
Unicorn
Zanspine
ZZ

Baby comeback! You can lay it all on me! Seriously, we miss you guys.

Finally.

Okay. Update complete, everything should be fixed including bases, etc.

I would recommend everyone double checking their stuff just to make sure everything is correct, just to ensure there are no foul ups.

That said, good morning, and I look forward to today’s actions.

Last Time, Promise…

Good morning. Just a heads up that the actual update of battles are done with one exception. However because I have an inordinate amount of house cleaning to do with this update it will be delayed until sometime between 7:00AM – 11:00AM CST.

The reason for that time frame is because I am at my place of work at that time, but I don’t have work until 11:00AM. Not directly relevant, but I wanted to give y’all some assurances this will be done.

Also everyone welcome our new member Hyaku Shiki who be added tomorrow morning as well, but I wanted to get this up there so there would be no ambiguity.

So that’s it, actions are go for tomorrow and I hope everyone is enjoying the RPG being back on again. WOO!

UGH

Marcus’s hard drive crashed and ate a decent portion of the FFA (but not all of it).

RPG’s paused today so that it can be finished and posted. That’s about it.

edit: Here are the winners; you may, at this time, claim your prizes. No reason to make you wait longer. The way this will work is that the first place will get first pick from available prizes, then second place second pick, et cetera, et cetera.

5. Blitz
4. 0
3. TERRA-GooHN
2. Freedom
1. Xeku Zwei

After some prodding, we are in fact open today. Sorry for the confusion.

- Troika.

Off to Work.

Well…*looks around* Looks like Troika passed out last night, but one battle has been posted, none of the statuses have been updated. I’d do this myself but I have to be to work in half an hour. I do have a favor to ask our writing staff… Will someone go to the writer’s board and take that last duel and please turn it in before tonight’s update?

Off to work I go! Hooray! *sarcasm*

Just wanted to let everyone know that the intro to the FFA is up courtesy of Andrew, Old Man Kale is still doing his best to get us the main event, hopefully we might see it before the update is finished. But for now go read the ‘Night at the Mausoleum’ it is quite amazing…
