Two days to go until deadline. The weekend has passed and only one person has posted assignments (thanks, LD). Can I get a confirmation that people will be able to make the deadline, or should I extend it?

TheMeanestGuest

I'll be getting mine up! Though I hate to say - again - that I won't be able to provide any stories. I really do enjoy the game though, even if I don't think I'm expressing that properly.

I've mentioned this to everyone else, but somehow it slipped my mind to PM you, Rael. I'll be in Panama from July 7th until September 1st for an internship, so I'm not sure how we should handle that with regards to Juliet.

Raelifin

Yay! Thanks, TMG. I'm glad you're enjoying things. :D

Two months is a long time! If you don't feel like you can manage the time/internet to do the roughly bi-weekly assignments then you can choose between:
* Having some sort of story event incapacitate Juliet indefinitely.
* Appoint another person to control Juliet.
* With any degree of specifying goals/background/plans, turn control of her over to me; I'd try to pilot her as fairly defensive/safe, but I can't guarantee she'll survive other players, of course.

TheMeanestGuest

I think I'll hand her over to you for the duration after my orders for this turn. If I'm able to get online to post orders, I will as able. That should work, hopefully.

In that case I will continue to write turn descriptions as usual and I'll only post assignments for her if you're too busy to do so.
Note: In this case your deadline/assignment period will be shorter than the rest, as I'll normally assign Juliet probably one or two days before the deadline.

LD

Have a good time in Panama! And good luck with the internship!

Somehow I totally didn't consider all the writing you'd have to do for that. I think it'd probably be best then if you controlled her almost entirely, and if you just posted brief summaries, as opposed to your usual lengthy briefings. Just so I'm not occupying your resources when I can't take much advantage of the extra effort. I'll PM you some vague guidelines for while I'm gone.

Haha. Thanks. It wouldn't really be *extra* work to do it the long way (as it'd be the same amount as if you were here more or less), but it'll be much simpler to run her like I'm running Jens. ;)

Thanks. I'm working on Vic's update, so you have some time. I'm not going to wait for Xathan, tho. He seems to have disappeared from the net.

Raelifin

Hello all, as I'm sure you've noticed, the current update is taking a while. Some things have changed for me such that I don't wish to continue to put the energy into running City of the Chosen, and I've spent the last week basically looking within myself to make sure.

I want to let you all know that I really greatly enjoy the support and participation. I am sorry to disappoint my current players, and I hope you'll understand.

As with all of my work, I release all intellectual property rights. Feel free to use/adapt/run any of this with or without attribution.

Cheers,

Thank you for the fun adventure. :)

BasnetI
