So you know, Zari, I can't see glowy font. None of my browsers pick it up, not even IE for Mac. Maybe you could find some other way to distinguish the younger clones. I'd suggest background colors for the fonts, except it looks like ProBoards doesn't support background colors. :/

Adding to what you said, I can see all the fonts, but I'm too lazy to go check your thread every time I want to figure out who's talking. I'd prefer it if you just used '<clone> said', because then it'd be easier to read. Oh, and one of your fonts (I'm not sure which) is really hard to read, so oculd you either up the font size for it, change it to a different font, or just stop using fonts in the first place?

((Yay, I just finally got into the guild! But okay, can someone give me a quick overview so I can join? ^^; *doesn't feel like reading 40+ pages*))

((See? I told you guys that we need a running summary. >_>

*recalls from memory* Everyone [well, most everyone] arrived at Spacefleet, signed forms, including medical, set their stuff in their rooms, and read up on a few rules [The rules and some basic room locations are on the first page]. They had some lunch in the cafeteria, where there was a robot Weewoo waitress that ended up getting a quick repair. A gang of motorcycle riders attacked, just for fun I think, but were quickly taken care of. The group did some furniture shopping, and brought said furniture back to their rooms. One girl turned off the hoverboard that was carrying her mattress once it was in her room, and it hit the ground with a thud, which people in nearby rooms heard, even though the rooms were soundproofed. There was a slight of panic due to this, but even more panic when Spacefleet was invaded by giant anthro tigers and even more giant dinosaur-wolves. There was some fighting, shooting, and exploding, and some death as well. The anthro-tigers eventually left, with hostages. They chased after the tiger-guys, and with the help of some cat clones, freed their taken people, and returned with them, as well as some new members. They were just settling down when an object was detected heading toward Spacefleet. The object turned out to be a CryoPod that held a young Cyborg. They had a nights sleep, and in the morning got together for some breakfast. The cyborg was taken to do some target practice, and while he was gone a nurse told the rest of the group there that he had artificially induced amnesia. The cyborg returned as a new member of Spacefleet's Combat class. A middle-ranked officer brings up a possible-suicide mission, he hasn't told the details, except that it will happen within two hours, and that it involves explosions. And that's where we are now.))

I'm a lazy bum, but I'm working on it, I swear! *is on page 4* I'm getting there e___e

ETA: I started the Summary thread; for now it's just describing the current situation. I've got a setup in my mind so it'd be much appreciated if no one posts there until I finish up the whole summary

Omni's is accurate, though ^^ Most of the later half of the RP is devoted to our mission to rescue hostages. We got back, everything's cool, and Clint Thunder, an officer (controlled by Bacon) talks about a mission with lots of explosives and a high danger level - the operatives (Bacon & I, originally) are to meet Clint for an information session in the hangar of the fleet in about an hour and 3/4. We're currently in the cafeteria, finished eating breakfast and talking about Ethan (cyborg, controlled by Omni)'s mysterious past and such. I bring up the suicide mission and folks are interested ^_^

[Strife]

A plot summary is a very good idea. ^^ Being the villainous mastermind behind (most of) Spacefleet's operations, it would only make sense for me to jump in at some point. I would want it to be a rare occurance though, in order to preserve the mysterious and creepy nature of my character.

[Ice]

I was wondering when you'd pop in, although you do have a legitimate excuse On a more RP involved note, I've a bone to pick with you about Spacefleet maps, they only show main hallways! What use is that when the place has hundreds of side hallways and rooms? Poor newbies get lost wandering the place, y'know

(And of course, I'm joking about the whole matter XD)

[Bacon]

What? Spacefleet map? I haven't seen one of those.

I believe those were used near the beginning of the RP.

As for the new RP thing that Zari suggested, maybe we could have a time-skip sometime soon. You know, finish this mission, have everyone settle back in, then either start a new thread (which will make it easier for newcomers and last-minute posts on the settling in) or just have say in the RP that it's some time later, say 2-6 weeks later. I personally would like to skip to a couple payments or so later when Ethan would
have furnature, and Siber.

We also need to have that funeral and some rank upgrade ceremonies RPed sometime.

[Bacon]

Ah, that explains it. I skipped to the end.

Yeah, that was confusing me too. I can usually see glowing font, but I didn't in your most recent post. And for those who can't remember which font goes with each clone(like me), I'd recommend something more like:

<clone1>: Get away from my pie!
<clone2>: Well, where's my pie?
<clone1>: I don't know, ask <clone3>.
<clone3>: *burp*

(Just a hypothetical conversation.)



Also: Whoever controls the character(I think Amneiger), remember that I already (in an early "Clint" post) volunteered "Nameless" for the suicide mission.

[Ice]

^ Good idea, Omni. I'm for a separate thread

^ Also agree with Bacon. And that'd be me. I'll bring Nameless back in at the hangar since I'm guessing that's where she'd planned to meet up with you.

If you looked at my last post in the reasearch lab, I've changed it.

Well then, look what the cat-clone dragged in. Keng!

Yea, and their teeth are really sharp

[zarikrahia]

It's not my fault...?

[Bacon]

Isn't it?
