				Here's the OOC thread for the reboot of The Orion Incident colonial marines game. Feel free to use the area for any general chatter, character planning, questions, discussing the setting, etc. <br><br>To start things off, why don't I ask a simple question aimed at everyone. How do you see your character as getting along with the squad? who do you feel they are friends with? Who do you feel they might not get along with too well?

				@RedEve/Baalborn87: There isn’t a specific posting order, as a general rule I don’t personally believe in them. I’ve always felt they can be too cramping on creativity/natural flow for my tastes.<br>&nbsp;<br>@LtFox: Wade has been with the squad for about two years now, as far as the others I’d say they’ve been with it around a year or so unless someone wants to specifically have their character as someone who has been with the squad for a longer or shorter period of time.&nbsp; If so, please say so here. They will have had combat missions together already; though most of these missions so far have been basic drops to check up on unruly colonies. These drops would rarely require more than very light levels of combat often against little more than farmers/factory workers using antiquated equipment. &nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>@Everyone: I’d like for the game to progress at a bit of a brisker pace than it currently is. I’m thinking along the lines of at least a post a day (or every other day at the minimum). Does anyone have an issue with that/expect it to be something problematic?<br>&nbsp;<br>Also, everyone’s next post should wind them up in the mess hall, just like RedEve’s and LtFox’s have their characters there.<br>&nbsp;<br>ALSO (again lol), I don’t like calling anyone out&nbsp; in front of everyone, but given the size of the game it’s very easy for one person not posting to slow down things for everyone else. At this point everyone has posted at least once, with the exception of 42ftw. I’m going to send him a PM today, and if I don’t get a response soon (or a post IC). I’ll have to assume he’s dropped. Given that he hasn’t posted at all yet I may just swap his character out for someone else, or NPC his character. (If it comes to that point, which I hope it doesn’t). I said that mostly as a heads up for everyone, and also as a ‘please keep playing as normal’ with regards to him not having posted just yet.<br>&nbsp;<br>If anyone has any other questions or statements please let me know ;D

				Also(yet again) to address the whole stepping on one another's toes thing. I'd say right now just use good judgement. If it becomes an issue I'll place some sort of rule. But given the size of our group and the structure of the game I don't see it being an issue.

				Not sure if I could manage one post a day. 2-3 a week, sure.<br>But at this point it's a moot point anyway, since no one is averaging anything close to one post a day.

				It is a moot point right now bit I'm hoping things will pick up. And 2-3 times a day is about once every two days (by my estimation) which should be fine.<br><br>Also I'll be having Wade leave to his brief as soon as Sarge confirms the squad's orders. Once we are done with meal antics(don't be scared to cause some ;-) ) we can just time jump our characters to the dropship(which I'll do once we are ready).

				Can we at least wait to post each round until everyone else has posted that round? If we're not doing a posting order, shouldn't we at least do that?

				I've never been a fan of posting orders. Problem is if one person who's turn it is(or who hasn't gone yet this "round") doesn't post for a week, nobody can post. Which is a really good way to watch a game die when nobody posts for more than two or three days at a time.

				@ MaiMizzu: I'll let people know if they are leaving others behind. Though on e again at this point no one is posting in enough volume for it to be an issue.
