As some may have noticed (or not), I'm a little late on getting results out. Part of it is me procrastinating, but another part is that I only have 5 submissions. I've been kind of hoping the other two (Orlando and Cedar) would come in late.

As a result, I'm going to extend the deadline to the end of this month. Game time will just be a month behind.

On the other hand, I'm not seeing a lot (ok, any) forum activity. If you guys don't want to play, let me know. I have some pretty big things in store (one player has already received a hint of things to come in his/her results), but we need to get past the set-up and introduction phase first. And if you guys aren't into it, I can't really be either.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Thats great Syl!

My life has been changing a lot, and I was eagerly looking forward to the next turn so I could submit again. This is even better!

Thanks a lot. :D

I'm glad to hear that - I gotta really busy June and was starting to stress about deadline.

Don't know about everyone else, I'm loving the game but finding it hard to build interactions with others. Probably mostly my fault though - after incidents in pantheon, I'm trying hard to avoid alliances or even finding out who's playing who.

As seems to be the case in many games, I end up kibitzing with other players off-line. So, in my head, it totally feels like there's a lot of action and a lot of excitement going on for Acro. But, that doesn't get communicated back to the GM, which is a shame, because the players being excited is the best way to keep the GM pumped.

However, I've also been kind of busy finishing up school, so I admit to not having posted much of anything in-character. In any of the games, really. I can text with Fist while I'm on the bus, but when I get where I'm going, I had actual work to do. That is no longer the case, however. Yesterday was my last day of school ever. For the rest of my life. (And I'm so excited about this fact, I'm probably going to repeat that line in every game's forum.)

yeah congrats GK!

After weeks of manic gardening (incl chilis so not completely out of character!) I have a week off with alot of travelling and hopefully alot of relaxation time, so I can get writing up my ideas for the game. Hopefully I'll find an internet connection somewhere to post them!

Any chance you'll be anywhere near the Seattle area?
...yeah, like that would happen without prior notice from you.

I've been out here since the 15th of May. But, since I was told GT players are better off not meeting when I suggested it when I was out this way before, I figured there was no need to mention it.

But I told TSA not to let any Watchers come up here. I gave them pictures and everything.

Those guys are so fired.
