Allanak region RPT - Sunday Nov 2nd, 4 pm server time

Started by Talia, October 25, 2014, 06:12:02 PM

If things go along as they have been going along, it's possible-to-likely that players with PCs in the Allanak area might want to plan to log in around 1 pm Pacific / 4 pm Eastern (server time) / 9 pm GMT on Sunday, November 2nd.

What's this about, you say? Guess what...find out IC!

Note: This is time change day in the United States, so be aware that you'll need to "fall back" your clocks in order to not get the time wrong and maybe miss out.

Neat.

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

Saweet!

It's still looking like this will probably be a desirable time/place to log in. Don't be too hungover from Halloween partying!

Please kill my PC last? I hate always dying first during these events. Thanks Talia!  :)

Whoo hoo.

Don't worry, Allanak. We can't die--you know why? Because we are so very...pretty. We are just too pretty to die.

Now we just need a PC named Bendis to die horribly.

He must have a chiseled jaw.

If you vote I might not kill your character during this RPT.

If you don't vote I'm going to dice roll to kill folks randomly at 4pm Which will be BEFORE THE GOOD STUFF.

I vote twice a day on TMS and a few times every week on TMC, even when no one is reminding me to vote. That makes me exempt, right?

rip thread.
Modern concepts of fair trials and justice are simply nonexistent in Zalanthas. If you are accused, you are guilty until someone important decides you might be useful. It doesn't really matter if you did it or not.

Staff are eating their Wheaties.

Nak is rocking right now! Just forewarning. We expect this RPT to take a couple of hours, maybe even three! There won't be action in the city at all times or locales, so don't despair if it seems quiet for you.... now.

Man, totally should have made a throaway character for that *smacks forehead*

It's been called an arena event.  It is not in the arena?

I am unable to respond to PMs sent on the GDB. If you want to send me something, please send it to my email.

The staff made a OOC room for the non-allanakis to watch the games two years ago...or was that last year?

Don't worry about it, it appears that even nakkis aren't privy to it either.  For being advertised as one thing, then hyped up as that thing, it has turned into something else.  I call it a 'waste of a study group cancellation'.

Calm down, it's just a game. Why would you cancel important RL stuff over that?

I'm perfectly calm, and promptly shutting up.

You're definitely confusing the RPT with some other events. The RPT is definitely known about ICly by many Nakkis, the leadup is absolutely known by people in various clans, castes, hanging out in different bars, and moving with different crowds. I'd get edited if I said anything else but yeah. It is what it is, and that definitely isn't something that was hyped as something else.

Yup, YUP.  My bad, my bad, ignore me.  I was looking at time stamps and how long I'd been wandering around looking for something.  I found something else, and all else I've said is impertinent and said too early.

I had to leave a little way in, but what I saw was -awesome-. Thanks for putting this together, staff!

PHEW!!!

Agree with BadSkeelz. It was fitting or the season. If a few days late.
I think I saw 76 people logged in. Wish that was more constant.

Staff was on top of everything! I was literally sitting on the edge of my seat, sometimes holding my breath at all of them beeps. You guys were amazing (kudos coming your way) and also the players were awesome. I'm so going to reread the log cause things happened FAST!
