While We Wait: Writer's Block & Other Lame Excuses

[Boundless]

Still totally interested! Please, bump your NES if you are up for continuing!

I think the idea's cool germanicus, but I always find playing in pre-established settings to be a little restrictive. The only NESes set in other media universes that I've really enjoyed have been in Warcraft-based settings, and that's because they're deliberately vague about details so a lot of things can be realistically made up.

 

[Tecknojock]

I'm glad to hear that your all right. I'm still interested.

 

[nutranurse]

Cool! I'm looking over what I've written and... it's pretty jumbled. Mostly complete (I just need to add in a few events and include Lord Joakim), but pretty jumbled. Well, I'll edit as much as possible, but I'm aiming for getting this out tonight. No more delaying this overdue update!

 

[thomas.berubeg]

Yay!

Can't wait. I've been hoping for it for a long time.

Wee! If needed be, I can post the story in the thread too. Can't wait to read the update.

@nutranurse glad to hear you survived hospital! Best wishes and good luck with the NES - I must confess my ignorance to most NESes but am trying to catch up :s

BTW guys, if anyone has Corel graphics suite (Corel PHOTO-PAINT to be exact), I found it can load the micrografix picture publisher file format, which is the ancient image editor I've been using all these years, so I can give you all my maps and stuff with all the clickable floating icons/sprites intact. Just have to be sure to use the import function rather than open (which crashes).

 

[Optical]

Alright, so I'm out of the hospital for real, finally. Had to do some semi-major surgery on short notice, but that's life.

I am wondering if the players in my NES are still interested or if I should just start up something new. I don't really care either way, though I totally understand if interest/commitment has waned.

Glad to hear you're OK! Of course I want to continue

Hey Thlayli, your DipNES 06 orders are going to be 5072 hours late in about 15 minutes now.

 

[Thlayli]

*chuckles*

Is it running anew?

 

[qoou]

It might. I'll look around and send PMs tomorrow to see if there's any interest. I could also update tonight if you send orders. Nevermind, I also need a Turkey player and orders from him.

 

[Tycho]

Wondering if I should join another NES... or hold off for right now.

 

[SKILORD]

Send orderz

 

[nutranurse]

D~: It's really hard to write updates while drugged out on pain medication.

Also I'm finding myself more and more inclined to start something else, though I likely risk being chased by an angry mob of players.

 

[merciary]

Whatever you want to do is fine by me, I just wanted to see how far I could take the Swiech before they implode on themselves.

 

[thomas.berubeg]

Daww, Nutranurse, that's too bad.

What are you thinking of doing? (and I was REALLY interested in this setting.)

 

[Tycho]

@SKILORD

Understood, sir. o7

 

[Tecknojock]

Daww, Nutranurse, that's too bad. (and I was REALLY interested in this setting.)

Ya me too.

 

[nutranurse]

Ya me too.

Well, to be honest, the update is done. Well, done in so far as that I have 3 more events to add in after reviewing orders (I forgot pretty much everyone's magick research). It's just that I can only work on the update in brief spurts before I start to drift off or feel icky. If I stopped the NES I probably would not stop it but put it on hiatus.

Daww, Nutranurse, that's too bad.

What are you thinking of doing? (and I was REALLY interested in this setting.)

I was thinking of doing something set in the current NES' world, albeit on a different part of the world. Around the same time setting as well, actually. The focus, however, would be smaller and more about dynastic struggles between a couple of Elven/Orc/Half-Elf-Orc houses (as elves and orcs are kin in this setting). Cataclysmic magick included.

edit: The real reason I would shoot for this type of NES is because it would be a lot less for me to deal with, which is kind of what I need at the moment. Granted, I could just give up NESing altogether, but I kinda like NESing.

 

[Thlayli]

And we kinda like your face, nutra.


Kinda.
