Well a Schedule would make things easier. Then again schedules seem get scrambled if 4chan goes down. Though it seems that you and Richter Bromont usually posts links to your threads, so if something does go ary then we at least have the archive to fall back on.
Yeah, no problem. Here's the link to the thread I just finished up.

Hmm Alternating days like Yamaku Man and Storyteller did before could work wonders, how many new writefriends are now? Bromont, laughning man and umaguma correct? i havent seen Storyteller in quite some time, and also [MC] who was doing the awesome Orange God story

It's obvious we need the schedule, or KS writefag threads will soon die a disorganized writhing blob. Although, in any case I can't see them quite reaching their previous steam with YM not posting at all.

Back to the topic though, I think it should probably be alternating days. Since there seem to be three obvious writefags as of this moment, just cycle around. I definitely think this is the best thing at the moment, because I can't help but think bromont's gonna get overworked doing this everyday. You guys should probably decide on a tentative time too. In the best case scenario, though, you writefags should just take liberty to aim to post it at any time you find convenient on the day. If you can't post on a day just come post that here since it makes it more simple to deal with.

So, if you're fine with the rotation thing, and this is just me randomly putting names/days down feel free to change it, why not do Laughing man on sunday, then uma on monday, and finally bromont on tuesday? That would help get a rotational system started. Not my decision or anything, just a suggestion.

If you want to do them on the same day though, at least try to work out a time schedule, because it is a bit pathetic when there are three writefag threads on the first few pages.

Laughing Man, if you do a story about KS in medieval times, will Emi have peg legs? Technologically that's as advanced as she could have.
It's a good thing Shizune is deaf, she is the only one who can stand (not) hearing "Wahaha~!" over and over.

To the guest. This is a fantastic idea. The only other problem I could forsee with this is people's IRL schedules conflicting. Previous engagements and whatnot, though it does fall to the writer to figure these things out. I figured I'd attempt one tonight, and maybe again on Sunday. However, to make things easier, if there's someone else posting, I'll step aside, at least until we can figure every last detail out. It also gives me time to prepare.

It's still in the planning phase, and I'm right now deciding how to make it work as a CYOA game. But upon reading this, I thought of Emi with peglegs, which then led me to think pirates, which led to the thought of Emi standing on top of the prow of an airship screaming "RIN! ACCELERATE TO RAMMING SPEED!" Then I lol'd.

The technology level won't be advanced, but there will be some WIZARD DID IT moments. Anyone who's familiar with the Eberron D&D setting can vouch for me. She'll have metallic stumps, nothing overly fancy. And the other girls will be accomodated for.

She heard mermaids, so it follows that something is rotten in the state of Denmark. I have an everlasting cold, but luckily I’m terribly dishonest. I cling to that.

I thought of automail at first, but Rin would lose some of her moe with workable arms.

Yea I'd like to see your story later today. I'll step aside and maybe do one tommorow.

DO WHAT YOU WANT CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE
YOU ARE A PIRATE
Emi just got a character concept.

Tonight's festivites will be traditional, though. I want to finish this school dance thing. I promise it'll be fun.

Why would you think this? I most assuredly will not steal this idea from you and use it in my story. No, sir. I totally will not do this.

Bad inside joke. Old D&D campaign with a legendary man who had magical arms and a steam powered telescope for a leg. The greatest dragon slayer who ever lived.
Although he never lived, all of the rumors and tales about this great man were told by us about our resurrected skeleton friend who was encased in full plate armor.

I could spin some yarns with you about the many men that have come, lived, and died in my campaigns that I have ran and been part of. I'll give you the short version, but a half-orc luchadorre monk who wrestled a dragon, among many other characters.

If I go with a pirate Emi, I'll make her leg have slots for compasses, telescopes, maybe even a dagger or two. Or twelve.

Fuck, now I have to play this character.
