WELCOME TO THE OOC THREAD FOR ROLL TO STRIFE - A HOMESTUCK RtD!

So yeah, all your OOC blurbs can go here. Chat about the game, Homestuck itself, or maybe what you had for dinner last night. Doesn't matter, it's OOC.

Also, if you want to pre-in for a possible second round, post your character sheet here.

Fetch Modi:

Queue: First In, Last Out

Stack: First In, First Out

Hash Map: Item is placed on cards numbered 1 thru 10 depending on value of letters. Letters are tallied as A=1, B=2, C=3 OR Scrabble Scores, your choice.

Pictionary: Item must be drawn to be capthalouged or retrieved. A coin flip will determine if the drawing was correct or not, so not drawing is actually needed.

Tree: Place a Root Card, and all other items become leaves or Branches. Items whose names come after the root, go on the right side, before, go on the left side. This is same for all items going on branches. In order to take an item, you must pick leaves to get to it, OR you could pick the root and let everything fall to the ground.

Ouija: Items are numbered. Whatever number comes up on the dice is the number of the item retrieved.

Miracle: Anything can come out, GM decides what.

Recipe: Any item can be retrieved at any time. Also has the added feature of showing how an item can be created using alchemy on the back.

8 Ball: Items are stored in magic 8 balls, which are numbered. You choose an 8 ball and smash it, getting whatever is inside.

Tech-Hop: You can take out any item at any time, but have to have something to replace the item with.

Monopoly: Items are placed on numbered cards. A dice is rolled, and a piece is moved the according number of cards. Wherever the piece lands is the item that is retrieved. If a card is empty, it is skipped. (Like Ouija, minus the ghosts)

No guarantees we'll start over again, but if you wanna play, it's worth a shot!

Name: Rodion Yefimovski

Chumhandle: arcticDreamer

Gender: M

Age: 13

Fetch Modus: Tech-Hop

Typing Quirk: perpetual slepp deprivaiton negativela afeects typins. has temnsencu to gall asleep at kaeboard andllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Occasionally lucid and legible.

Shirt Symbol: a closed eye.

Appearance: a short kid with chest-length greasy blonde hair usually hanging messily about at any given moment. Half-closed large brown eyes, round face and large, aquiline nose. Looks rather dull and confused most of the time. Clothing is characterized by unusual amount of the color orange.

Short Bio: His name is RODION and he is 13 YEARS OLD. He is also the UNFORTUNATE VICTIM OF A SLEEPING DISORDER. He is most often TERRIBLY SLEEPY AND CONFUSED, but occasionally has TEMPORARY PHASES OF LUCIDITY as well. He lives with his MOTHER, an ECCENTRIC SCIENTIST in THE MIDDLE OF FREAKING NOWHERE, beyond the Arctic Circle, in a RESEARCH STATION OF SOME KIND. Unlike his mother, he has NEVER BEEN ABLE TO HANDLE THE SEVERAL-MONTH-LONG DAYS AND NIGHTS, so he suffers from excessive daytime sleepiness as well as insomnia during the night. This makes him one of the least consistent people you'll ever talk to. His mother frequently INFURIATES HIM by bothering him in the middle of the night with her LATEST REVOLUTIONARY IDEAS. His permanently confused state has given him AN APPRECIATION FOR SURREALIST ART, and his room is entirely filled with surrealist posters, movies, figurines and books. When not in his room dealing with his sleep problems, he sometimes likes to visit THE PRESERVED BRAIN OF HIS FATHER, which his mother has built SOME SORT OF CREEPY SHRINE for.

So, before we start, Maybe you guys could tell me where you are in the story? Or where you left off?

somewhere in the troll session, after one of them become a robot and is kiss by another.

[anailater]

I stopped about the time John was 15, stopped liking ConAkr and had a small hate anyresm towards DaveSprite.
Also I didn't keep a copy of my sheet but I did send it in.

[Greenstarfanatic]

Oh cool, he made us an OOC thread. So, you all know the majority of the story. And it looks like Scapheap is where I am, and Anailater is a bit behind. Cool.

[SeriousConcentrate]

All right, here's the sheet I pre-inned with so my fellow players can read it.

Spoiler: Madison Turner (click to show/hide)

Name: Madison Turner
Chumhandle: athleticCactuar
M/F: Female
Age: 13
Fetch Modus: Ouija
Typing Quirk: Madison never uses caps and tends to forget about commas. Otherwise she types mostly normal with few misspellings, but if the person she's talking to takes a long time to respond for whatever reason she'll start fidgeting, which usually means typing something like '*Maddy spins a basketball on one finger.' or '*Maddy does the robot.' in an effort to get them to hurry up and say something.
Shirt Symbol: A red and silver bell.
Appearance: Maddy has a normal complexion, with a lot of freckles along the bridge of her nose. Her eyes are a light blue. Her hair is a very deep golden blonde and worn in a waist-length french braid that is almost always carried over her right shoulder. She's a little short for her age but is not particularly fat or skinny - just the right weight for her size, with maybe a little more muscle than most girls have. As for clothing, she's wearing a blue A-shirt, blue basketball shorts that reach to just below the knee, white socks, and white sneakers with red trim.
Short Bio: Maddy lives on a small, isolated compound in the Tule Desert with her older brother. Although he's a total basement-dweller who presumably earns his living by telecommuting or some other job he can do over the internet, she's more of a fitness freak who prefers to spend her time out in the desert sun exercising. Her favorite thing to do outside is practice playing basketball, although she can also be found swimming laps in the pool or taking long runs around the compound.

Her non-athletic interests include romantic books and movies, playing video games with the few friends she has online, horror movies, wrestling, and collecting moogle dolls. As for her personality, she's competitive but kind-hearted and loyal. She's a daredevil willing to take big risks for big rewards, and she has a somewhat teasing, trollish nature - she loves to get under her friends' skin by making flirtatious remarks. An optimistic and extroverted girl, Madison tends to want to take the lead in every situation, and is constantly on the go.

And as for story, I stopped around the time the four new kids were introduced.

[Greenstarfanatic]

Do 'Kate: >ACTION'

((Would it be alright if we actually used pesterchum, if we had it and could transfer the logs, in addition to the normal system?))

[[Can we keep this kinda stuff in the OOC thread please? Also, about your question, I'd rather you just keep it in the forum. Thanks!]]

Speaking for myself, I would find it a bit difficult to stay in character during a live chat. ^^^;

Good point, I was just thinking for expedience, though I can see how in-thread could be more convenient.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Oh, I agree with you on how much faster it would make dialogue scenes; it would be very useful for that purpose. IIRC it even has a thing you can edit to make sure your typing quirks (almost) always come across correctly. I'm just worried about what I said a moment ago and actually being online at the same time as the person you're trying to talk to. ^^^;

Exactly- the forum posts allow you to avoid the timing issues.
