Zari, I think that made some sense...but I still think I'll stick to Dunburrow. >.>
Bacon, that's some pretty interesting backstory. :)
Tamia, I probably understand your plight more than anyone else here (and if not, well, I pity us all -_-). Um, though, if you wouldn't mind, what could I do to improve the summary so it fills in those gaps you need filling? (Other than, of course, getting current with it?) Most of the comments I hear say it's great, but those are all from the people who are, in fact, current with the roleplay, so some concrit from the people my summary is really meant to benefit would be wonderful. :)

My main problem comes from not knowing those tiny details about where a character is at the moment and exactly what they're doing. I suppose though... could the point in time be made any clearer? I know that the roleplay tends to be stuck at different times for different people and areas, but do you think it would be possible to make a rough estimate of the time of day (and number of days since the start of the roleplay) every few pages, or near key events? It would probably work if you picked out the farthest ahead time that's been suggested -- because if you're going to jump back into a roleplay, you'll probably want to jump in and be immediately up-to-date. Again, the summary is fantastic. xD; It's just that there are some things that you can't pick up on any other way than by sloughing through the whole hundred-some pages. |

I see. ^_^ Well, at page 100 (where I am), the time is morning of the second day (sounds like Zelda, XD). Twenty-three pages later (where I should be) might be different, but I'd expect that, at most, it's late afternoon of the second day. After I'm caught up, however, I do plan on putting something together that will make the timeline much clearer. In fact, when I'm finally caught up, I have a couple things I'm going to do to make the summary more accessible for everyone involved. And thank you. :) I'm glad you like it. |
