<span class="bbc_u">Let's continue without a fixed posting order. I don't want to hold the majority to the much slower pace of those too busy to post or struggling with their muses, nor do I want those who lack the time or mood to post more often/faster for this game to feel pressured to post, or guilty if they can't manage. </span><br/><br/>In direct interaction, or in one on one scenes, with these slower posted characters, it is necessary to wait for their next post, of course. In other situations where I'd see it as a necessity that each player gets their turn, I'd post in OOC along the lines: Stop of random order for now, let's wait till everybody's character has had their chance to (re)act or speak up, and stick to that order until the scene concludes.<br/><br/>But when, like now, there's several people and conversations, no IC group decisions outstanding, when the subject of the conservation is nothing of direct importance for those not involved, mostly private talk, friendly banter, things like that, we can move along as fast as we want, post as often as we like.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u">It would also make a lot of sense, as the characters split up in a 'buddy system', to team up for scenes with players who usually post at a pace you are comfortable with, enjoy most. </span><br/><br/>For example, right now, Gravik and Rachubka would make a good 'posting-team' in this sense because they're both less active/fast in posting and have been so for a while. They could assume Ashleigh and Jake are unpacking and setting things up for the lab, and that's why they don't talk much or pay close attention to the rest of the group's casual talk.<br/><br/>I don't want to hold the entire game up for weeks just to have everybody's character make a comment in some casual conversation... ;)<br/><br/><br/><div align="center">*****************************</div><br/><br/><br/>So, DA, post whenever you feel like it, okay?  :D<br/><br/>I'll keep an eye on the game, and if need be, I'll slow us down again, or, when in doubt, I'll contact the currently or permanently slower posting players to make sure it's still fine with them. I hope we'll naturally find a decent middle way, speedwise, a balance we all enjoy.<br/><br/>*laughs* Yes, Derrick is a charmer. ^^<br/><br/>Maybe there's some hot love-hate-fight-fuck sort of something brewing up with someone? *grins and winks*
