				It is pretty isn't it? I think, though I might be wrong, but I think it's the Library at the Biltmore. I had googled 19th century then kitchen, library, etc..and that was my favorite for a library.

				I think when we are able to use them and the ones that are fitting, period permitting, I will likely use the same home as the interior for the house.<br><br>The home displayed is a real place in I think it's called Linden in the UK. I have a program that has a virtual set of the town and I think this is actually their town hall, but it just screamed Westinghouse to me. I will see about a map for it so we have a plan on how it is laid out as well. My thought it being as we are going to be treating it sort of like a condo as the story starts, that we will have it set up in a similar manor, so there might be duplicates for location, meaning The Duke and Duchess might have a library and Henshaw might have one of his own as well that is his to use. Then there isn't the thought that they are bumping into one another. He and his have one side and they and theirs will have the other. Then as we grow, we will move to the individual estates.

				I just wanted to let everyone know that we have a new addition, Sexy Firefly. She will be playing Georgiana and a characater that has yet to be added to the list. We will have a large host of charcacters, some that will be adoptable if anyone is interested, it is not mandatory in any way whatsoever. I will not be having a character limit for writers, but you are not required to write any more than you truthfully feel you can handle. I will have the rest of the cast up before Friday.

				Just wanted to give a heads up that I have the current principle cast in the cast list. I have made the pics larger so they can be seen, let me know if any one wants their pictures changed..also if you still need to get me a bio for your character, please try to do it today if at all possible. I have a couple I have to add yet as well. We will start tomorrow with a continuation prologue from the story this was spun from..after that has been posted, then the home threads will be open to posts. Because of the cast size we will have limited location threads until the story qualifies to become a big group, so please make sure to use location tags. I think that is common practice here, but wanted to mention it here so it was known to all.

				I have started a thread link thread on the main page, only the first two are active threads at the time this is being written. From our current writer list we can have three more threads I believe, but am at a loss at what would be best. The home of Archibald doesn't really require a lot of threads, not yet anyways. The Weston's could probably handle a few, but if we move 99% of the action to Westinghouse, we could centralize locations there as well. I don't think it will take us long to gain the 1000 IC posts we need to upgrade, but would like this to be as organized as we can make it for ease of navigation for everyone.<br><br>Any suggestions? Either on threads or on what we might wish to have where? I was thinking a streets of London thread as well, which might be interesting, but have to consider our current limits.

				I'm here too, everyone!&nbsp; I'm kind of confused on the whole premise of this game as yet, but hopefully I'll learn as we go along.&nbsp; I know this is a spin-off of the other group game, and that it's taking place at Archie's house, but other than that I'm not sure what we have as far as characters.&nbsp;

				Hi Sarah,<br><br>I might forget a few of the newer characters, but we have Archie, Elizabeth, which is yours, Vivienne, Hank and Vic Henshaw. We are adding James Greymore, who is the Uncle that had nothing to do with them. We have added a few side characters that will be working for Vic, as well as a sister for Henry, named Victoria. He was mentioned in Romp, but we will meet her in this one.<br><br>In addition that we have the Westons who are a London family and will be friends to Archibald and Georgiana, who when the story starts is his companion, and likely to become his wife at some point. We are going to have a story line similar to Romp, but it isn't going to be the entire story, just a small part of it. If anyone wants to add to this, please do, I am just working off the top of my head on the cast for this story.

				Okay I have added the main threads for us to start. Each family or group has a main location, there is a road and general thread as well as a thread for Henshaw and the grounds where Jennings is located.<br><br>The description and links are located on the main character and information thread.

				Also if anyone wants to use their characters avatars for their posts, if you right click on the cast list you will get the link in the properties section for the image. I have them sized to 150x200, so shouldn't overpower a post. I will leave it as optional, as there are some that won't be able to include them, but they are available should you wish to. I will be using them because of the amount of charcaters I have, and because I like to see the character, but I won't make it mandatory.

				When I needed a place to store Vivienne should Gaga's internet be gone after Friday..lol. I have plans for it though..I am thinking that it is long forgotten, so maybe even the Greymore's forgot it was there, or maybe Archibald knows about it, but has been unused. I was toying with the idea that it was used as an area jail a century or so before. The bad guys will probably use it for some purpose other than her storage though.<br><br>Pm me Jinxed if you have any thoughts on Victoria and Claude in the coach..or we can have them arrive at the Inn, I think they are still a ways from the estate, maybe they arrive like 6pm? or so..<br><br>Also if anyone wonders all the attention on Vivienne, it's only to get her stored. I figure with her father she's going to end up with the bad element anyways. If anyone has plot ideas, please please don't hesitate to contact me. Right now we have Claude and Victoria in the coach, I know her trust is in her brother, but there could be something interesting there if we worked it right I think. Westons' are plotting their party..I need to know if anyone does not want to be included in that, least character wise. It will mirror Romp, for those that are/were in it, but not 100%, I am not looking to duplicate that and this will be a much shorter part of that, we will have it take place over a weekend, but it won't scope the entire story.<br><br>Vic is meeting who will become his wife, neither see that coming. but that is a plan between her father and I presume Darcy Henshaw, who we will not see, or could be her father alone, wanting more access to the Henshaw money..<br><br>Right now Archbald and those involved with him are really just filler to get them to the Weston's, but if there is anything there anyone wants to see..more than willing. Also we are working on characters for the party, guests, maids, footmen, butlers, they are only used in the party..if we come across one that we like..we can keep them, but we are only planning for the bodies in the party, so if anyone is interested in that, let me know. The information concerning the party will be let out in the Weston thread. I am hoping that by the time the party hits we will be a large group, last count we were at 729 to go I believe.

				I have an idea or two for Ella. I took a couple days away so everyone could take a little breather and regroup if needed. I have been looking over the cast and will be adding a Butler and footman. I am not sure the family to put them with just yet, but I think perhaps for Victor's new home, or maybe the Weston's as that is the site of the parties.

				I discovered while working on a reply to a post that some of the character pictures are starting to come up missing. I looked on the site where they are located and they are all still there, and the others are still appearing, so I don't know what is causing it. I will be moving them to Elliwiki now that I know how to actually do that and I have an alternate way that I will probably be doing the bios so what I will do is put up in the links area a spoiler with the image links for the characters and I will also PM them to the various writers so that you have the links to your characters as well as the pictures themselves. <br><br>I will be doing the same for characters and writers that fall into other stories I have as it wouldn't be a bad idea I think to have them backed up in some way. I don't expect anyone to repost or edit to fix the pictures..I am hoping it's just a snafu and will fix itself, but the future ones when I get them ready will be from the wiki.<br><br>Also I am working to set this so it runs in some order..so far I think we are going good..When the coach arrives back at Westinghouse, Claude will have been left at the Inn I think, I will be returning to the Weston's and getting Lord Greymore and the rest there for the party planning, when that reaches 6pm or so, then it will revery back to Claude and his trek to Westinghouse, etc..<br><br>I haven't done a post count recently, but once we get to the magic number I will be creating Henry's other homes and likely Westinghouse itself will be used for other purposes, we have a crime family working out of there as well as others that want to use it, so I think it might become like a central use building if that makes any sense, then the families can live in York or whereever and it will ease up the location some what and allow it to settle some. The party is still a go and I still have one or two I have to add to the cast that will be involved in that. <br><br>If you would like to write a character that is involved in the parties, another Lord or Lady, anything, that isn't necessarily in the story, but is involved in the side fun, let me know please! I think the more we have for that the easier it will be for all of us, but they are only for the party or for filling out side plots, they don't have to be considered full time characters.
