Ambrosia Software Web Board: Ideas for next TS - Ambrosia Software Web Board

I had a post almost completed, but then I closed the window and lost it all. Here's the gist of what was said: Basically just do the format that everyone else has done for the Char Info Topic...Thing... and if you see something left out that helps, stick it in. My description of Talryn, (of which I've forgotten) has hair color, age, eye color, and the clothes he typically wears, and that for the reader (i hope) is enough that they can create the image of him in their minds. The only way you wont get the "reading the book" imagery is if you draw your character, which then displays detail not previously said.

I'm still not participating in a TS, till the Order Chron is done, as I've said somewhere before (maybe IRC?). I can't promise any work will be done on it any time soon, as the homework load has been pretty hefty. The most I can say I'll do is look over whats written sometime this week. I've even started to slack off on my renders for dA, if that helps describe how much work I'm doing... >_>

Quick note: RE was one of the funnest TSes I did and it went great for the time it was going, minus my declined participation towards the end and that awkward waiting period as we waited for a couple people to finish tying up the TS.
A problem with the TSes is that some people are more active than others and then end up sitting around waiting for people to post, and the not so active miss out on some posts where they would've loved to do something because they had some other obligation that didn't let them check the boards that day.

I'll try to stop by from time to time, but this urge to have a social life is pretty overpowering. The one where you hang out with friends and get to know people...(Its pretty bad when your a Junior and you only know a handful of people at school). That being said, random spontaneous posts from yours truly will show up when I see something that is worth putting off homework to comment about (such as above).

See ya around,
-Dark

At the moment, I don't think that we have enough people to start a TS.

However, I'm not certain if waiting a little bit will help this situation or make it worse. Anyone have any suggestions?

Erm, start PM-ing members; asking them if they would like to join your Team Story? Thats about all I can think of that your can actually do, besides make or not make the TS, of course.

By waiting the board might just become more desolate from lack of activity. On the other hand, if you start the TS prematurely, and there [i]is[/], in fact, a turnabout increase in member activity, a lot of people are liable to be left out. Its a risk either way.

I'm just dropping by to say that I will be unable to start a TS. Someone else may feel free to start it if they feel there are enough people and they have some plot (I doubt that I would be able to join such a TS for some time however).

I hope to be able to reply to more topics tomorrow, but I can't say for certain that I'll be able to.

If anyone is still interested in doing a TS, I hope to be able to be more active in a bit over a week.

Once One is started, god damn it I'll be there! <-- Haha funny.

I'm tempted just to start it my self but I wouldn't know where to start. I'd recomend someone (capable) starting the TS but make it so people can join in even if they're a little late. A big long post would be good. The tavern is mainly a waiting room at the moment, no one's really doing anything at all. Anything is better than a dentist's office right now.

I'm still here, and still willing. However, I lack the practical experience to start such an endeavor, let alone maintain it, and the current lack of activity makes it quite difficult to post anything relevant.

Of course, if the TS were to be started, I would be there.

Selax will be making his return sometime this weekend. Although I'm posting right now, I won't be available to fully devote myself to a TS until next week.

Anyways, Selax and I have been tossing around ideas for the start of this TS, and we have some that might work. We are looking into possibly starting this TS in the next week or two, but Selax is a little bit reluctant to because we don't know who all will be in the TS.

So far we know that these people will be in the TS:
~vIsitor~
Selax
Two Jacks
Wizard

Who else plans to join?

Well, I'm back (of course, I have two tests next week anyway). I'm willing to start a TS, but, as Wizard stated, I think more people are needed.


EDIT: With the number of new members that have recently been by, maybe I should start a new topic recruiting anyone interested in joining TSs?

Wizard wants to start the next TS. I think that he would like to do around next weekend.

Personally, I think more people might still be needed, so I'll probably go ahead and start a topic for that.

I'll join!

I will most likely join in

Ditto.

I'd like to say that I'll join, but I've been so erratic lately, I'm not sure that's a good idea ;_; So I guess I won't
