Too many... wait, what?
How can you have too many accounts? That's just crazy talk.
I'm thinking also that... with the gas masks on, it would be easier to convince the actresses that they'll remain anonymous. I can find some broke-ass college chicks from here around campus. If they figured they wouldn't have to live the video down when they're 50, I think I could make this happen for pretty cheap. Just buy them a few hits of ecstasy or cocaine, get the camcorder out, and it's on!
And the actual gas masks and hazmat suit, as well. The local army surplus store would have those, I think. Not too pricey, either. Slightly used, but that's fine. It'll end up covered in... stuff... anyway. Don't need it to start out new, right?

Just to let you know for P.Ms (even game related ones) it's best to hit up my primary account (ie this one) as I check it most often. If you P.M my game account I likely will not get it for awhile. I know alot of people have the same problem...too many accounts. Goatkiller. Yes.

Bah. Check the box saying to email you when you get a PM. Have all the accounts send emails to the same email address. Done.
I know, you gotta actually open the email to see which of your accounts got the PM. It sounds like crazy talk, but once you get into the habit, it's not really all that hard to do.

Haha I knew you would have to figure something out. Fair enough. Sounds like a lot of junk emails and a lots of logging in/logging out of accounts though.Goatkiller666 wrote:Bah. Check the box saying to email you when you get a PM. Have all the accounts send emails to the same email address. Done.

I don't actually get many PMs to my character accounts. So it's not "a lot" of junk mail. There is much logging in and out, just so I can post as this character or that character. I have all the usernames and passwords cached, so that part isn't too tedious either. That's no harder than remembering that Led is more aggressive, and Andrea is very condescending. It's all part of the mental process of switching personalities.

Ironically, the lack of an update for Casper's storyline was what kept me from being inspired to run this. A double-edged sword, you wield.Goatkiller666 wrote:So, for what it's worth, I've decided not to advance Casper's storyline until Balance of Power starts.

((It would be useful if we had a sub-forum for this game. As for the rules, did I miss something? I received a PM with two lines of information, but I haven't the slightest idea what any of it means or what I can do with it. I've seen the list of country stats, but no rules))Casper von Hausberg wrote:Sending private messages out right now. Rules and stats have already been posted. Ask me for help if you need it. From now on, OOC posts should be made in ((double brackets)), otherwise I will assume it is all In-Character.

((Thanks for pointing that out. Sorry for asking an obvious question, but I simply missed all that stuff from the beginning oddly. Anyway, I would strongly recommend not starting until we have an official sub-forum. Things will get messy and confusing otherwise))
