The Island

[Karl Jak]

You've been split into two groups.  These groups are outlined in each of the threads.  You're not required to like, work with the other people in your section of the plane.  This is just the starting point.  As people move around or leave, I'll split you off into other threads.

You guys have four days to post.  If it wasn't already clear, I plan to treat this much like I would a D&D campaign or any sort of tabletop experience where I'm the DM/GM/whatever-you-call it.  You guys do what you'd like, and I'll provide prompts or nudging and whatnot as needed.  After four days, I'll eliminate the first person.

As a fun fact -- at the end of this round, I'll officially be on summer break and will be more present for everything.

If any of Team Nose wants to include/reference/chat with Red XIII, feel free. I have nothing really in mind other than trying to find out why the plane fell, so go crazy.

[Deadpool]

fml. stuck with my daughter for the next two weeks. all alone with her. been like that last week too. hopefully i will be able to post within these next couple of days but if not you know why

[Alex]

Updates will have to come tomorrow morning. I just had to work 13 hours, of which 8 of that involved emptying out classrooms across my school because the district is too cash-strapped to afford hiring people to do that. And did I mention they couldn't afford AC at all?

I'm very sorry. With school over, the pace of this will pick up some more, and I'll obviously be around frequently to get the ball rolling.

Again, I am sorry. I just... I physically can't will myself.

Unless anyone is offended, I won't be eliminating anyone in this opening round. It doesn't seem fair since I haven't been able to interact much with you all. At the end of this next one, I'll knock out two.

[Okor]

Fair enough. Apologies for not being too active myself, it's exam season, so I'm a bit pressed.

[Kaylee]

Sounds fair to me, so that means round 2 is a go?

[Karl Jak]

I'm going to place up updates for the Nose group. Tail group updates will follow tonight (so feel free to post normally in your current thread).

[Karl Jak]

Nose updates are there. I split you into three groups based on what seemed to be going on. I'll provide a further update in a day or so, based on what you guys decide to do next.

As I said, Tail will come tonight. Feel free to keep writing.

[Karl Jak]

Tail has been updated accordingly and presented with an action event. Knock yourselves out and be aware that decisions are made on an individual basis, you don't need a group consensus.

It's officially round 2. This round will run until Saturday morning at 7 AM CST. At that time, I will eliminate two individuals and award two individuals who 'top performer' prizes. All subsequent rounds will last 4 days and feature one prize and one elimination.

[The Vision]

So, just to clarify, are Okor, Marcus, Fiara and I still by the plane?

[Karl Jak]

100% correct. Y'all are standing around, celebrating your thorough scrounging of the wreckage. You seemed like a pretty motivated group, so I figured you'd be able to figure out next moves.

[The Vision]

Another question (probably wrong thread), roughly how many people werei n the plane again?

[Carmelita]

I take it Amber and Carmelita walking away along the beach means they're still in view of the plane, and thus included in the tail section? Just wanted to check.

Over a hundred.

Yes. You two are more than welcome to split off from the others, if that was your intention.

[ElFailzalot]

Just a heads-up here...but yeah, whole no internet at home situation. Impedes my writing progress. I'll try and get something written tomorrow, but if I can't then I won't be able to get anything posted until Monday. Just to put that out there.

[Apollo]

Hey, I've been rather inactive (family stuff), but I'll have a post up soon!

[Karl Jak]

Round 3 is up. Round 3 will last until the morning of the 29th (~8 AM). Round 4 will start within a few hours of that cutoff.

The C-Group is faced with a mini-boss.
Gin and Remilia are on an adventure.
Hiro and Barry are doing stuff
The Nose group is under siege
The Tail group is being driven from their home.

[Carmelita]

Amber, Arturia and Carmelita have split off from the Tail with four random battered secondaries.

[Karl Jak]

Derp.

Round 4 is scheduled to conclude on the morning of the 3rd. I have a (wedding) reception to attend that day, and then its the 4th, and then its my birthday.

So stuff might be dicey for those few days... Or not? We're going to play it by ear.

[Carmelita]

Carmelita, Arturia, Amber and the secondaries have followed the bootprints. Please could we have a prompt about what we find.
