I realize it's not ideal, but with our time scale it should only be a few hours in game time. I was thinking that I could have to leave the house to get some drinks/catered food/toilet fixing supplies for a few hours? Again, deepest apologies but the trip came up last minute. That said, I'm good with any start date so long as my absence (accompanied by said explanations) will work.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>That's fine, darlin'...we can certainly use any of those reasons to cover the absence...not a problem at all :)<br/><br/>And to everyone else, please do not worry about missing a few days, a week, or whatever...I think if we go by the timeline I've presented, we will all have plenty of time to post & keep things going. If you know you're going to be gone awhile, just excuse yourself from the room you're currently in & we'll all ignore the fact that you're missing until you return ;) If something comes up, and someone doesn't post for a week, we may just indicate that your chara fell asleep on the couch or something (during the social scenes). :P Less than a week won't count...I realize that may seem a bit harsh (and if you're a "twitchy-gamer-type" let me know NOW if that bothers you), but the reality is that time goes by quickly. I think everyone understands that "life happens"...Real life comes first, no matter what...but also respect the others in the group by letting us know when you're going to be gone (if you can). :)<br/><br/>(Also, if you would all rather go with a 4 week timeline per scene to give everyone more time to post, that's fine with me. Just stretches out the game another month, which is no biggie, but puts us at Christmas time for the ending, so keep that in mind!)
