(Okay this is my third attempt at accuracy)<strong>65 WEEKS</strong>(not days) is when my training is officially over. But I may be allowed to have access to a laptop post-BCT, but I'll let you know because I'll definitely check back when I finish BCT before I'm sent off to my AIT (the 52<strong>weeks</strong>). I'll be back May 24th (from BCT) and I'll leave to AIT June 25th for 52<strong>weeks</strong>.<br/><br/>I was thinking about it more, and I think in comparison there's a lot more freedom in the X-men game than this game. When I look back at the posts I've done, one day has gone by and we have a period of free-form at the beginning where players could have their characters go wherever and do whatever. But now it's just back-to-back action. I feel like I'm taking care of a doll because I have to make sure my character gets some sleep so it "logically" makes sense and then I have to feed him so he's not running on a 72 hrs empty stomach, which if I hadn't eaten in two days I would feel like crap. So trying to get him fed to juggle the now new threat popping up, it forces me to have to sit this event out because I have to take care of him because if I don't, then there's no way he'll be performing 100%. It wouldn't make sense.<br/><br/>I do understand that my character is currently having some issues that during the brief moment of free-form he could have gone out and eat (but he had woken up at lunch time so I had to wait for the game to get there), but OOC wise, Josie and I had the idea that Carol and him would go have lunch (and also that), but just like the Porsche incident - can't even do that. o_o<br/><br/>So yeah, I just got to have him sit this one out and get him straightened out while everyone battles Dr. Doom and all that jazz. I can't jump from one event to the next unless my character was well enough to join in the fray. So as soon as everyone else jumps on the bandwagon to handle the problem, hopefully that'll give me freedom to escape that damn PO and do my own thing for the time being.<br/><br/>I know this incident is happening to give the new players their chance to show off their characters since those of us in the past incident already did, but I just hope that no one was hoping for my character to be there because yeah, I already explained what he's going to be doing during the End of the World incident. As Ares, he could have easily done it, but he's not going to be Ares for awhile now (depending on how that goes IC) because yeah, his sister turned him off to it.<br/><br/>But see all this complicated shit and I may just be bringing it on myself, but my character needs to eat. Enough said. John will perish if he doesn't.
