Greetings. I guess we are about to get started, but there are a few things that I want to talk about and I think it's ok to do it here, rather then on the SubetaLodge forum. Nothing secret yet, I suppose.
First and foremost: Welcome Back! It seems that everybody ( except ) has checked in and I am very excited to be working with you all, even though we have a small team this year. I rostered you all with Rowan with the same jobs you had last year.
Second: Rowan told me that there is a new person who has expressed an interest in joining a team, his name is . He is from Italy and is interested in being our Ranger. He has had experience in Role-playing in Italian, but is concerned that his English isn't all that good. Please offer him your warmest welcome and reassure him that it isn't a problem if English is a 'second-language' for him, that has never stopped us from welcoming new members before.
[edit] he decided that he would wait this one out...sorry.
Third: I have asked , Glitter's little sister, if she would consider being our "link" whatever that is. She cannot commit to being a full member of the team, but she could help out and agreed to join in after the weekend. Hopefully we won't need her in that capacity right out of the chute.
Fourthly, Glitter proposed a name change and went to an online Random Name Generator for Role Playing Groups and was somewhat amused at the suggestions she was given ( Death From Above, Sky Breakers, Crimson Lightening, Bloodbath and Beyond, Systematic Chaos, Bright Sparks, Organized Confusion ). She also came up with "Mages, Healers and Rogues, Oh My," which could be truncated to "Rogues" I guess the problem with our current name is the Stone Cold part, it is just a wee bit too 'Steve Austin-ish' and I don't know if any of us are really Stone Cold Steve Austin types.
Anyway, nothing earth-shattering. Just let me know what you think.
Are you ready to take on a new adventure? I am!
With fondness
Frieda.
I'm fine with any of the new names :)
I'll be reprising Aicha as our mage/magic user.
We need a log keeper too, right? I dont think its my strong suit...any idea who might take it on?
: Log keeper? Hmm.... let me read up on that, I might do it. I've got some re-reading of all GreenRowan has written so far, I'll tackle it in the morning while I watch MLP.
LOL to tell the truth I have no idea who Rowan is and I never expressed anything XD btw it looks funny and i accepted to join. please be patient with me
This name cracked me up Organized Confusion and it fits with any WS :)
I'll be reprising as Teislyn the bard. I have more time this round since I don't start class until July 11, so I can fully committ unless something comes up.
:
Hollis liked the name Organized Chaos, Ighigo777 was fine with any of the names, I liked Organized Chaos and Glitter said it would probably be the best name since it fits us so well and it's initials are O.C. which also means Original Character. So I will put in a name change for Organized Chaos for our little group.
We are only four members, with Dannygyrrl acting as our link.
I think we are all set.
Hollis : I'm glad you are back and that you have a little more time this year. Teislyn is bringing Lini the Leaf Lure, correct?
Ichigo777 : Glad to have you with us again, we'll have fun. I hope it's a little better format this year, less stressful.
Glitter : Dace is bringing Buttercup again, right? Did the little drunk get some counseling this year?
Frieda is bringing Doom again, now that she has grown up a little and has started talking a bit. She still likes her baths and her ribbon and sausages.
Yup, Lini is along with Teislyn this year. Lini is excited about seeing Doom again.
: Doom loves Lini very much and is also eagerly anticipating a reunion.
: Welcome aboard to our Ranger. Wayward Squirrel adventures can be a lot of fun and we are excited to have you on our team. There are some things that you need to do to get set up in order to receive messages and communicate within the group.
First of all, we recently changed out name from Stone Cold Rogues to Organized Chaos mostly because we really aren't anything like Stone Cold Steve Austin. We are more like Organized Chaos, hence out new name. But we cannot change all aspects of our former name all at once.
First things first: Please join our ping group SCR "# stonecold" so that you can get group notifications.
Second: I asked Georgie to add you to the SubetaLodge Forums child forum: "Stone Cold Rogues," Which Is HERE Find that forum and make a comment in the "Wayward Squirrel 4: Teaming Up" thread so that I know that you are properly set up with SubetaLodge. This is where we do all our planning and writing in secret, apart from the Subetaverse. I resisted starting a new forum with our new name because there is too much information left over from WS 1, 2, 3, that I felt we needed to reference.
Third: Make sure you have subscribed to all the Wayward Squirrel forum threads that Greenrowan has made, and read through it her posts in your free time. There is a lot, but much of it is entertaining, especially some of the comments from Lovecraft and her group.
The Main Story Posts "> WS4 Rules Team Rosters and Standings Procedural Questions and Answers Vital Background Information from previous years (FAQ) Character Classes
There will be others, each chapter gets it's own thread.
Fourth: Many of the Wayward Squirrel Adventurers have companions and there will be opportunities for companions to participate in some of the puzzles. My companion is a honey badger named Doom, Hollis' character Teislyn has a small Lure named Lini, Glitter's character Dace has a drunken slutty faerie companion named Buttercup and Aicha...um...well....um....
Moving on...you can have a companion.
Lastly: At some point, we will have an opportunity to tell about ourselves. Be ready with a short character sketch, I'm sure it will be one of the first things we do.
Don't let any of this intimidate you. We're all here to have fun and to support each other. If you have questions, ask.
Aaah. /runs around I'm having trouble. Firstly forum group search seems to never want to work for me, so I can't find SCR. D= Second, not sure if maybe Georgie hasn't allowed me yet, but I can't find the place on SL. ;-;
As for everything else, I've already found/read most of those topics on my own. (Did I say I was excited? =P) And I will be thinking on my intro/possible companion! <3[edit]Nvm, silly me found the ping group at least, but it says Invite only! Still unsure about SL though~
Art by ~ Sig by ~Can you offer an invitation to Scorpio to the SCR forum
: I am glad you are excited, so am I! (yay!) I sent another notice to get you on the SL forum thread.
: It has started! I will set up a SL forum for planning and discussion within the next couple of hours.
I'd have no idea what I'd be doing but I'll be around should you guys need me. Just remind me every day to get on Subeta or I will forget XD
I'm act. locked out of the SLodge- Georgie's got to do it. I'll mail her for me & scorp.
what's your lodge UN? edit- sent u an invit for the ping group tho
Hey y'all, about to head over to the lodge, just catching up on stuff here :) Be there shortly!
Ichigo777 : Thanks! I just read your edit...( giggle ) hollis : I'll set up the Chapter 1 forum thread on SL now.
: Please go to SubetaLodge Forums "Wayward Squirrel Chapter 1 : This Is So Hinkey" and we can start.
: You are our link. Your job is to cheer us on and to be the one who contacts Greenrowan when we get stuck on any of the puzzles. It's a very low level of participation. You're kind of like a ShoutOut on Cash Cab. If you want to offer some Hink Pinks ( and the clues ) just smail me and I can post them over on SL for you.
I'm Scorpio on SL as well. =] Thank you for the group invite~
Art by ~ Sig by ~you need to mail Georgie as per her instructions for me & scorpio :)
, There is always a few bumps along the way to getting started. I got a reply from Georgie and she is working on clearing things up in SL.
Her confusion centers on the fact that you are also listed as a member of another group. I reassured her that you have been on our group for three years now.
I suspect that everything will be A-OK really soon. Secrecy and security clearance are her main concerns to avoid spies. Thanks for your patience.
: You should be on the Stone Cold Forum group on SL real soon.
Yup, I actually already posted there earlier! (In case you hadn't seen it yet)

: Please visit the SL forum and read my post. We have 4 hours before our first deadline is up. I need a HA and any additional description of your character that you want to provide ( see the post )
