Can I join if there are any spots left? I already made my character sheet earlier in the thread.
Yes, You'll be in next turn, when I make it.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Do I post my actions now or after I enter?

MC, if you don't update soon I'll have to start a derail game in this thread :P

Ahem, do you realize that Mastahcheese locked the other thread because of the derails?

What he said. Also, you have to have patience. GM's do have lives also, which requires that they balance the time that they update with the time that they spend on other things.

Not to mention that he actually illustrates this one.

I think that, actually, the more that he is bothered with something, the less he wants to update it.

Can peeps just be patient? He isn't running this game just for you - it's gotta be fun for him to do, too. It's not pleasant when you feel the need to update something because your players get restless.

Sorry, everyone, I've been busy, as some of you guessed, thanks to those of you who are understanding in this.

I actually have to get back off the computer right now, but hopefully I'll be able to get back on without too much of a delay.

I DO know you're busy, mostly that was just me teasing you. Mostly. Its a bit silly to have a game suffer update slowdown ON THE SECOND TURN.

I'm not saying MC is my robo-slave, I'm saying he is trying to handle like 5 IRTDs at once if my count was anywhere near accurate. Which is a headache no-one needs.

I'm not handling 5 IRTDs ay once, one is in a map stage, 2 are on hiatus. I only have tWoOtAPRtD and this one active, at the moment.

Eat my way out of the plants.
[5] You free yourself from the plant.

Bite some of the plants.
[7] You tear your way out, and narrowly avoid the Puttle trying to murder you!

Nibble on some plant life or eat some meat, for we must be healthy!
[4] You can't chew through it... Then some jerk takes a big bite out of you!

Filter feed. When not hungry, reproduce.
[2-1] The other member of your species gets stuck to you!

Seek out suitable sustenance. Consume suitable sustenance.
[8] You drift down to the Vestnesis and take a big bite out of it! You gain 1 Vigor!

Attempt to grip the nearest lump of meat (the one below me on the seafloor), and pull it into my proboscis so that I may feed from it.  If someone tries to eat me, grip them and feed off of them.
[2] You get caught in the current!

Undergo binary fission.
[8] Despite all your efforts, you fail to do something you are physically incapable of doing.

Devour the drifting flesh. Divide if possible, if not, kill something.
Scratch that. Chase off this interloper.

[10] Despite it changing targets, you attack the Sporian! But it defends itself!

Latch onto and dissolve closest source of food (if relevant, anyone trying to eat me) to eat.
[3] There isn't any food in your reach, but at least you drift down closer to it.

If I can eat the thing now, eat it. If not, eat something else.
[8] You move in and begin dissolving the Verdadrak! You gain 1 Vigor!

Ascend. Attempt to filter-feed, grow, reproduce, whatever.
[3] As you burn from the corrosive spit, it comes up and begins eating you alive!

THE FORLANE IS DEFENSELESS! PROBOSCIFY THE FORLANE!
[5] You charge the Forlane! But you miss!

consume plants.
[9] You can't make it down to the plants, because you are assaulted by a Ballisto-Shrimp! You valiantly protect yourself from harm, however.

A Palladnius swims in from above.

...I can see this getting awesome.

Filter feed from mouths that aren't facing other Xanalok.

((Heh. I'm on the way to becoming a multicellular organism already.))
