Is this game dead?

Subject kind of says it. Had a hankering to play once or twice a week wondered if any of the old gang was around.

On 12/15/2017 AIM is shutting down finally. I mean I guess it's about time, but it's still a bit of a bummer. More here:

TT advice

Wed, 30 Aug 2017 15:50:09 -0700

Eyo friendos! I'm thinking of running a table top oWoD game for some buddies, a thing I have never done and barely participated in. Those of you who do or have done TT, what advice would you give a rookie ST? The game will be Werewolf because it is my favorite and I miss it.

testing, testing, anybody out there

Heyo! So, uh, yeah. That last time I tried to wriggle back in here didn't work out super great, eh? I can't promise it'll go better a second time around, but I wanna give it a shot, 'cause it's been a million and a half years and I just can't ever fully quit RP, y'know?

So, yes. If folks are still about, I'll be submitting an initiate to the Mage game, uh, soon...-ish.......hopefully. Because I wanna play and also I miss all your butts!

Schedules?

Hey folks, I am hankering for some serious RP goodness but I think we've all got some weird schedules. What's everyone's availability?

So! Belatedly, I was away from my computer and eaten by life and circumstance and blahbidiblahblah and generally hard to find. I apologize, folks!

On a lighter note, I've been camping, did a bunch of improv, and was generally eaten alive by my family and I SURVIVED.

Is this thing on?

Sun, 21 Aug 2016 16:31:09 -0700

Having a peek, checking it out, and seeing if this place is still active?

And hi to old faces and new.

aw shit jamie has internet again

Sick and Stuff

Fri, 20 May 2016 18:17:41 -0700

So, most of you probably know that I have been pretty sick lately, and by lately I mean it has been 4 weeks now, and can really stop...

Anyway, yesterday I went to my doctor's, she told me to go to the ER, and the ER found some giant lymph nodes in my body, which may be lymphoma. And I wasn't doing great after being sick for so long either. So now I am in the hospital. (Actually feeling much better here on IV fluids and I managed to keep some food down, yay!)

So, obviously, RP may be not on my list for a while. And if it is on my plate at all, I'd have to deal with the nurse / tests schedule, which is pretty random.

<3 You guys, and hope to be well here soon!

Chemistry is the most frustrating flavor of math.

Look. It is.

So I am busy doing science and applying to grad school. And I might be cheating on all of you with my TT game. (Look. It was wearing really sexy boots. And I haven't gotten to run a TT game for almost a decade.)

I am probably not bouncing out of here entirely, but I doubt I am going to be exceptionally present again at any point in the near future.

And since after master's degree is currently slotted for law school (you can laugh - I know I did), possibly also the far future. Because if I survive grad school and law school, I will have no choice but to ~~learn to be a vigilante~~ get a real job.

Leaving the Site

Mon, 22 Feb 2016 10:15:02 -0800

Hey everyone. By now you've probably all noticed that I've been pretty much MIA all month. As it happens, RL decided to kind of pull the rug out from under me. It's been... an intense few weeks. But I want to reassure everyone that I'm alright. It was pretty sketchy for a while there, and I definitely had some really bad days, but I'm coming out of it and things are getting better.

That said, I did come to a place where I realized that RP (and especially Admining/STing) is just not something I can make time for anymore (at least not in the immediate future.) In a practical sense, I have very little free time right now - and I'm mostly pretty tired when I do. On a more personal level, as much as I adore this game and especially all of the wonderful people who play here, I've let RP become this thing that's distracted me from dealing with difficult issues in my life. And I don't want to do that anymore. I hadn't intended on leaving at this particular juncture (especially not with where everything is at in the Mage game) but life apparently likes to laugh at my plans. I will be finishing out the month, at which point Liz will be temporarily taking over until she finds a more permanent Admin. In the meantime, Mage players are welcome to talk to her if they need anything and I'm not available (I know I haven't been as available as I should.)

I want to thank everyone for all of the wonderful scenes and stories I've gotten to write with you during my time here - both as an ST and as a player. This site has given me some of the best and most memorable RP moments that I've had. I will miss all of your flawed, fascinating, lovely characters. I will miss your great writing. Mostly, I will miss you - because you guys are amazing. And I hope to keep in touch even though I won't be around on the site, because I consider you guys real friends (not just people I play games with on the internet.)

(And hey, I'm sure I'll be back some day. I always come back around sooner or later.)

That there thing at the bottom says it's your birfday, so hope you're having a good day.

Return and victory!

Hey loves!

Ups and downs have happened, but my good news is this: I am back! Doing thingie things and turning my phone AIM back on!

So, just popping in to say my offline-ness has subsided and I am ready to rock.

jamie's migrating again

Sun, 24 Jan 2016 22:18:52 -0800

So family stuff happened. The situation is stable/improving but I have the impulse control of a baby goat and am making my way back to New York.

Long story short: leaving Salt Lake on Greyhound in the morning (Monday) and anticipate arriving in Rochester Wednesday morning. It's a long-ass trip and they have WiFi on the bus so I'll be around.

BRB!

Jacqui's schedule rn.

Sun, 24 Jan 2016 18:16:19 -0800

Yo party peeps,

So this is just more of a PSA in case we don't talk regularly on AIM and you aren't already aware but: my schedule at the moment is pretty nutso. Work is crazy busy (and my classes resume next week) which means a lot of the time my usual RP hours (very productively done while multi tasking actual work related activities) aren't as readily available to me. AKA: I'm not around US evenings as much as I used to be at the moment which makes RP hard via the chat.

So! Just, if you need/want Kiara or to RP generally with me, the best method right now is probably to either IM me when I surface to schedule something or to drop me an email starter (or do something via the forums). I usually endeavor to reply quite quickly. Hopefully things will calm down soon.

Cheerio,

-Jacqui.

Guess who has a new IM?

Wed, 20 Jan 2016 18:56:38 -0800

Hello, lovelies!

I got a new name in AIM, so I will finally ACTUALLY update my messenger stuff. Please add me as "abominableallyse"

Because the world doesn't have enough Steven Universe .gifs, and Garnet makes me feel awesome. Kinda like having a new IM

I Want to RP - Anyone?

Wed, 06 Jan 2016 07:43:24 -0800

Hey guys!

My schedule is still/absurd this week but I really feel like RPing. Problem: this week I will not be home any night until after 8 to 8:30 eastern and need to sleep by 10:30ish eastern.

So: weeknight RP is possible! But needs a planned start. Or - I can make some time somewhen this weekend.

Er - so! If any of y'all Mage folks have time in that span tonight or tmrw orrrrr a window of time this weekend, please please let me know.

I would really appreciate it.

Liz
