use this for all OOC chat, questions and notice of when you will be  away.

  started the "voluntary minicamp" thread...post  around as you wish..time for  the players to get to know each other.

Hey everybody!

Just wanted to stop in and say "Hi"... this sounds like a really great change-of-pace from the usual games I find on here, and I'm excited to see where we take it!!  Great timing getting this started right before Draft Day, too ;)

Go Dragons!!

::chuckles:: well..I just tweaked the first football idea..and set it up on my thoughts...the rest us up to you guys..I have grand plans..Just need the players to help pull it off!

 So far so good folks! I am really enjoying this.

Gotta say that I am too!!

FYI, I'm on Eastern time, and I work from 6 AM till 6 PM (lucky me, right?)... so between those times, make sure you don't say anything to my character for which you're waiting for a response!!

I will probably be away from the keyboard most of the day this Saturday, too - got a beer tasting to attend.  But figure Jim's just out there throwing the ball around.

I am PA, work till 4..don't get hope till about 5 or so..I am off tomorrow though..yea...

Eastern time here as well, still doing the college thing for a little while longer, so until mid June, my posting schedule is going to be more wide open.

Yay for days off!

And oh, how I miss college somedays... though earning real money after you graduate is nice!

I'm heading out for the night, gang... very promising first evening!  If y'all continue or get started while I'm away, figure I'm doing some warm-ups and/or doing passing drills with other players.

Have a good night!

take care..have fun

THIS IS NOT A GAME THAT IS STARTING OR THAT IS ACTIVE

 This is because I'm looking for feedback from others in ways to improve games in general. I would like anyone who wants to, to look at this game and let me know what you think.


 DO NOT SEND IN A RTJ AS THE GAME IS NOT REALLY OPEN FOR PLAYERS I just want feedback on the layout

Thanks

Also I have told the GM here that he is welcome to use anything he wants for his game. I enjoy this game and plan on playing it for a long time (hopefully longer then the Canadian Team lasted)


link to another game

 OK..it  seems  we Lost Ivan's player..I will keep Ivan as an NPC for this season  a very least...in case he comes  back

 Kat and JAmes...if you get a chance..You can RP out Kat's first set  of kicks....if you have time , and i am not on the next set of kicks  will be with the LOS on the 25..making it 42...then i can  RP the NPCs kicks and not slow your posts down.

  going off to play some football now::chuckles:: how the years have flown, not only am i playing againsy  some guys i used to coach..but some of thier kids.

  Anyway..will make it back to the puter  sometime this after noon...Kat? if you and Steele cam RP out the placements to the point i mentioned above? That would be good. If not i will NPC at least one  more round and you guys  can get back into it for the next set up.

  Nathan?  feel free to work the  D-NPCS  and such as you will. Likie to  keep the  game flowing as much as possible.

 see ya  all later

Hey sorry that I have been away from rpol for a few days but I'm back now. Hoping for a good bit of fun from this again, being transported from drinks in Canada to training in Florida is harsh but hey - that's footbal! =D

::chuckles:: welcome back..you are goping through drills with Lbs and such now, as the kickers are having thier...kick-off.

for the 7 0n 7 go ahead  and post for your guys now..Natahn can handle the dedfensive guys  Steele can handle the throwing and two whom ( including Bronk)..have  fun with it..I will throw in color and stuff as it plays out

alright  guys. I have developed...for my game..what is a simple, but still solid ( in my view::grins::)..point system for earning ways to aid your chaarcters in thier march to glory.

  It is a combination of...posts..RP..and skill points. These will be used to determine  success of failure in games.

  Now? Games will be viewed fromour point of view..when we are on Offense..the Charatcer's actions  will be what  they would be from that aspect..when we are on defense..same applies.

  the game wille be RPed out at certain times in the drives...games  may take a bit to finish..much luck combat in FRP games are..but i think they will be enjoyable.

  As we near the first Preseon game..I will give you guys you base stats and the points you may alocate..You will them be notified by PM when you have  earned another point...the preseon games will help  me work out the bugs, before we get to the regular season...also..keep in mine, this is a RP  game on how and what goes on for these characters..feel free to explore/addon to out  world as we go.

don't be afraid to posts  stuff in the 7 on 7s we can get  all sorts of input here.

hmmm..thinks  are slowing up?.if  any of you wish another thread to do  stuff  off the main thread  let me know...still witing to finsh first day of Minicamp though

I think you need to find out where a couple of your players went. We haven't seen James or Ivan in a while. Maybe a bump of the ad to get more?

And yeah, I think skipping ahead to training camp might do us some good?

 i think i posted earlier. Ivan bailed before Nathan even showed up..I do not  know what happened to Steele.

 I bumped the ad last week..I always bump the ads for my games while running them, because i know the turnover is very high at this site....I will continue to bump it up.

  One thing  though, the players  can do anything in  and around the game/team. This is  suppposed to be a RP thing about profootball ( along the lines  of HBO's  old 1st  and 10 series). I am hoping  we can keep going, because  i feel there are very good  RPers here..just need to keep playing.

 Tonight , I will move the 7 on 7s to the  end, and add on the post-minicamp GM  post...you guys  can take it from there....My NPCs  will always be active, but i don't  want to keep posting  by myself! sorta loney that way::grins::

welcome our  new DB!

Welcome new DB, hi and hello =D

 going to have a bit of time before the next day. Folks  can RP your down time. I will cue when then next day is ready.

folks wantingn to talk with coaches will probably find them in thier offices...use the "may" thread.

  don't know what happened to the QB..hope he comes back.

Thanx for all the love. Brutus Tibbs...your new Cornerback. Was thinking maybe Mathis was still on the team...but I had a brainstorm on a possibility if there aren't many DBs already. A NPC but a player who got the shot that Brutus missed out on when he went to Prison. The thing is...they are old buddies and went to the same high school.

In reply to Brutus (Shadow) Tibbs (msg #26):

dont have many defensive players so that is good

It's why I chose defense. I seen you were in need there and figured it was the best place. Besides...I always like the defense more. I know the offense helps win games but so does the defense. Without them stopping the other team...the games would be tied all the time.

sent Steele a PM and had no word  from him...we will go on with him as a NPC...If a player comes and wants to be QB..he will still have to beat him out...

I am putting up sevrel threads,  we can RP in them all, the timelines will eventually catch up to each other.

New player..Welcome Darren Clark

Yep. Darren Clark here, this year's Mr. Irrelevant. Every team needs a good Strong Safety/waterboy.

Welcome to the Dragons, glad to have another new player aboard.

will be having   the Head  Cheerleader soon!

  also? I noted on the RTJ  that i left off the age/consent thing...please make sure all of you send me a PM with that on ( some of you have, but i need a redo)..this  keeps the bosses at RPOL happy and our game running! Thanks!

welcome our head Cheerleader, Alexia Ruiz...she should be posting soon.

Hi all! Look forward to getting that Dragon spirit up and going!

Welcome to the game Alexia, oh and Age Consent thing sent.
Cheers

thanks..need to keep the rules up or there might be hassel

shouldn't be no problem on age consent. If it was adult then there would be. Mature games...not needed. I sent my in anyway.

thanks!

hey guys someone got fired where I work so everyone else is trying to pick up the hours until the end of the week,...so it is crazy at work...I'll try to post soon

Thanks  for the Update... Just post when you can.


along  those  lines..anyone  know what happened to Steele's player?

 Just a reminder, You all can RP of each other as well as NPCs...i am sure NPCs  will add to your RP when it is applicable...i would like to see this  game  pick up momentem, and we  will pick up more players as a result. For those we lose, it is unfortunate..but lets keep the game active! Thanks to all those who are posting, and workign around this time of year's busy 'downtimes'

  I hope to see this  game last a very long time.

 Congrates to Alexia...Post #300! lets  keep it going! The last  Football game only lasted 180!

welcome  another player!...James Gerhart  WR  a vet

Hey everyone, looking forward to working with you.  Adam, I'll get with ya later to work out some style differences between our chars.  I kinda made him the opposite of your char in strengths and weaknesses.

Okay, had to change pictures, was using Darren's.  So, James joined the NFL ten years ago, and has played for several teams.  Anyone interested in having worked with James before as player or coach?

Right now. most of the players  who are PCs have come here for one reason or the other...there are some NPCs who are freeagents  and trades  form other teams, but  the roster won't  be final until Training camp ends.

  Feel free  to  have a NPC that knows him.
This message was last edited by the GM at 22:12, Sat 29 May 2010.

Welcome James. My guy (call him Mik) is from Canada - this is his first trip south of the border - and has only been playing pro-ball for a couple of years. He comes down as a free-agent and is a friendly guy so should become fast friends with anyone interested in wining ball games and socialising as a team.

OK...there iwll be  no rolls  for  the scrimmage  excpet those i  am experimneting with at home...we will RP some plays, just look for your cue when i leave  an opening for you to RP..and..of  course, you can toss in any RP goping on with your  Character players/npcs  as you wish.

 Kat will RP the  Kick off

Sounds good.  So basically you'll let us know if we need to do something special?

more  or  less..think of it  like a book or movie...the camaras  switch to other  folks  while other things  are happening, there  are things "off-camara" that we don't  know about unless told, or  we happen  upon it.

  when in doubt? Post where you can...can never have too many posts!

I agree.

I agree completely

  howdy,

   Just like to say, I like the RP  and posting.I figure, if  we can make it to 500 posts, we should be around  awhile.

  We lost a couple players, I am assuming anyway..and  another one  has had RL  rear its ugly head at work...But? Those of  us who can post keep posting, don;t be afraid to posts what your  characters  are doing  while something  is happening eslewhere...if any of you wish to have some  specails threads, Let me know...and if you want Private threads  as well.

  Keep posting and Thanks for your participation!

Thanks!  Based on the game post it sounded like my char was on the bench, but wasn't sure, so didn't want to say anything either way until the PAT when it said all the wideouts were huddled.  Which players left?

Again hoping to see the game make it. I really enjoy it and hoping it goes a long way.

I'm still here, any time I see my name or position I'll keep jumping in with posts, I'll normally mention a few other names in my post too to try and leave openings for other players to participate.

I'm enjoying things so far and I think we have a good core of players so we should last a while with this.

Cheers
MSG

welocme our Newest Dragon...Aaron"The Diesel" Desul !

Welcome to the game Aaron, hope you enjoy it.

Welcome Diesel. To let you all know on the weekends I usually don't have computer access so that's why I don't get on again till Tuesdays when the Library is open.

What position does Diesel play?

 right  now? it  depends  on  Lweis  and Sims...but he is listed at DE/OLB

Thanks every one for the welcome,I plan on playing RE in a 43 or a OSLB in a 34
it depends what D thay use.

Questions on La Roi...is he suppose to be a clumsy guy or what? Like the part on the tangling in the chains though.

He's supposed to be a joke.

 Ya like Stone Hands from Necssary Roughness or Clifferd Franklin from the Replacments fast as all getout but can't catch.

Stone hands was a good guy though.  La Roi has no redeeming qualities.

Cool character consept though not every one is willing to play the screw up.

A player isn't.  The GM is writing him that way.

 My bad he was listed in The Cast as a player.

He was a player, but quit, as have a few others.  The GM is narrating for them for continuity's sake.

 OK.Thanks for clearing that up for me.
I don't plan on quiting posting seames to flow ok so fare and I likelove Football and my Character.

will be having a New DT tackle  shortly..welcome him aboard ... Kainano (Kane) Mareko

  Thanks  for the support for the game. I am hoping  we keep going, the orginal game crashed  after 180 or so posts..still don't know what happened to the  DM..But?  as long  as we have players..I will keep this game going.

  For the new folks? You really don't  need to wait  for Cues, if you are cued in on a play during a game, you can still RP about what your players is doing, or RP with other players.

  There is rumors, Yuto is going to have  a "dragon's Party" at  his Huge  restraunt/club called  'The Rising Son'...all the Dragon family will be invited as they have done  this in Japan with many of thier businesses..but?  that has to wait  until after the scriammge...Have  fun guys and gals

 Welcom Kainano good to have a DT to sure up the middle.

Welcome Kane, now we are looking set for both sides of the line. May god take mercy on the NFL - 'cause the Dragon's are not going to! =D

 Ok now we are waiting on Joanna (Goldee Locks)Black to make her move.

Curious to see what she does.

will be leaving to go to a funeral service for one of  my Buddies at work, dad.

  I will wait  until 10:00PM my time  to let Jo post..if she doesn't  I will have to NPC the post

  Also? There is  a Roster built of  Nathan's  and Mine  for the Dragon's  thus  far...some of the NPCs  can be cut at anytime...some  Characters might get  cut  or trades  as players  drop out.

  Contacted one  fellow yesterday, since he hasn't posted  for  a while, he  said he  was too busy to play.

  New players coming in, with characters for a positon that has  a character from a player who left, will probaly have  the old  PC cut/traded ect..

  RL  takes up time, and the Summer is for outside fun..BUT..please  give  me a heads up  when you won't  be here,,or..if you deciede to quit  altogether...its more  fair to the others  players to know what is going  on

Hi all! Looking forward to getting in there and clogging up the middle.  Best watch out, Jo!

OK..sorry JO..but need to move  things  along...........

 Sorry every body I got called in to work and had to leave my PC.But I get paid more money  after 5pm and in todays economy every little bit helps.

 Kainano come on get better pic (Marky Mark) maybe Male Rugged page 16 last pic or mmr288 he's more Japnise than Polynesian but more like your Character's discription.
This message was last edited by the player at 16:21, Sat 12 June 2010.

If you're looking for Polynesian...well you could use the Rock. He's part Polynesian afterall. Just a suggestion though. Sorry for lapse in concentration this week. But for our GM you might as well continue to RP my characters for next week. We have our Fair coming and my family always makes extra money for parking so I won't be getting on anyway. Maybe Tues. but that's about it.

Thanks  Tibbs...what i normally do, I will RP it  out  ( with help  from My Dice rolls  and the  way folks RP thier characters ( Hint: RP  will be getting youo XPS  for use for  the "stats" that you will be using  for Dice rolls)...anyway?  I will  step up some plays and let the Players  take  the lead for a bit...if folks  are missing..I will NPC them to keep the game  moving  for those who are posting.

 remember this...This is  supposed to be fun...But RL  comes first...Give  me  a heads up when you can't  make it  a bit..i will tell you folks the same.

  ::grins:: I just like having  the folks RPIng thier charaters and  RPIng the NPCs  as well....another  thing to keep in mind...In all the games i run, things  are happening the whole time  we are playing, sometimes you will catch news  about it..sometimes not.

So just based on what I've seen lately, Gerhart, Mik, Diesel, Tibbs, Alexia, and Kat are still in the game, and the GM is posting for Steele, La Roi, Adam, Jo, Ivan, Payne and all of his normal NPCs.

I imagine most, if not all of these players are going to fade into the background or be cut.  My main concern, however, is that with each player that becomes NPCd, the game loses a little appeal.  GM posts are becoming longer and, for me, more frustrating as half the team "acts" in one post, and all of them talk the same way, riddled with ellipses.

I'd like to see this fixed, as I feel we are losing folks at about the same rate we are gaining new guys.  The only fixes I can think of at the moment are having some of the current players "adopt" the forgotten folks, or fade them out and replace them with new characters.  If we go with the first option, I'd gladly volunteer to pick up La Roi or Adam, as I've a good feel for their personalities.  If we go with the second, I'll start working on a second character.  Ideally, we could get either Kat or Alexia to pick up Joanna, since the QB spot is a big role to have NPCd.  If whoever plays these adopted characters enjoys it, then they stay on the team.  If not, then the character gets cut down the road.  In the meantime, though, it would greatly help (at least for me) players stay in the game.  Thoughts?

  well Adam  is  mine  and the funnel i use to help the game  move  along... The  " old  Characters"  that are being left by the players  who leave..might  be cut, traded ect ect..if  a new player comes in with  a character  for that position..however..one of the better games i  play in, The  DM has a truckload of regular NPCs, that add to the differant Views of the game.

 There is a 2 character limit for  Players, Providing they put the work into  making  both Characters worth having around,,that means  RP  and activity...for  games scenes..no matter how the  Player activity shakes out..there will be  Long posts  with the effects and actions of  NPCs  and Players  alike...since there is not a way to go play by play under PBP restrictions.

  Steele...Ivan...and  Clark are  PCs who are being  used by GM  at the  moment..anyone  thinks they can run them, send  me a PM.

  La  Roi and the  the Coaches except ,for Lewis are all NPCs...anyone  want to take LA Roi can give it a shot, as I am unsure  what is goping to happen with him..On  a real NFL  team, a guy like him  could get away with his play...on this  team, things  are   bit differant..But? They are short on players for that position...If another decent Player comes  along at Wide out?  He  could be gone, or fade a bit deeper into the backround.

  Coach Lewis and Payne are PCs..thier  Player is under the gun in RL and  are awaiting his return..

  So?  In a nut  shell, the game  runs the best it  can with the posts centered on those involved, the PCs just need to help carry the  load..That's the  thing  about RP...can't  have RP..if there is none there!

Hey guys, I will be out of town for the weekend so I won't be posting tillSunday night.  Have a good weekend!

 I'd take on Ivan if it would help things along I know i'm new to this game but not to RPing and I feel that I could handle the load.Besides that way I'd have a Character on Offence&Defence and can post more consecutive.

  Thanks  for heads up Alexia

   Desul?  see the PM

  as we have  seen, there  have been those who have left, and Those  who are busy..I will continue to write  the scrimmage posts up as if the action was being viewed by folks at "home"...everything is happening fast, just like in the scrimmage..if  you sorta get lost, chaulk it up to 'fog of  war'..try to be your player and work out  from there.

  Thanks  for  playing,most games i have been in , hit waves  like this, we already have  over 250 posts better then the original game...i am looking for   more football games to pop up as  our post count climbs...but? we wil be the  senior game of the genre!

 The more players the more posts the more posts the better the game.

More posts does not necessarily mean a better game.  At any rate, hope ya enjoy Ivan.  He and James had a decent chat before this scrimmage started if ya wanna see a little more of what he's like.

 Well more reconized anyway.Ivan will be fun I've read all his post and have a grip on how he is played just with my creativity

 Have  transfered Ivan so he  will be a PC  once  more. Sometime today, or tomorrow I will have to delete the Players  for  Steele and Clark...anyone  want to pick them up, let me know...elsewise they will be NPCed until something happens...they could make it through the season...or they could not..depending on who signs up  and what the  dicerolls have in store.

 However, I cannot just wiped them out as the charcters have a place in the game, and anyone aking thier place needs to earn it.

  Hope to keep the game flowing, and get some more active players  as the  days  go on..

Sorry for the delay, had to think about what to do.  By the way, do we ever get to see our stats?

as far  as stats go....the  things I am trying out have some bugs in them, though? I have never seen  a RP game that did not.

  It  will be  simple and have  a set of standards, you will be give some points to distribute..then earn points through  activity, RP and, of course ,how your charater fairs in games and such.

  If the characters begome  too " cookie cutter"..then i will add to the stats to be used...but i wish this game to flow freely, with some effect from dice or Numbers.

I could be wrong, but I think James meant his catches, yards, and touchdowns. I think that would be really cool whether I'm right or wrong, though, haha.

oh? sheesh..of course...I am currantly working on two ways to do that..One? Is painstackingly "making" our characters into a Madden game. Allowing the  game to be played on the option, where  we can take over at certain times...in those instancts, I will have those plays RPed by you guys....in the end?  we will have our stats  as well as those  from the league.

  It will be  a bit of a project, But i will try and post the weekly top ten and show were our  characters rank..IE: Top Ten in rushing  yards...Mik is ranked 15th...or Top  ten in Kickers scoring..of the  ten listed  maybe  Kat ends up 3rd at that point.

  The neat thing about that would be, the Probowl votes  andend-of-season awards..I have plans..if the  first season works out, to have a Stat thread that will show CAreer as well as season stuff..should be fun..but? crawl before  we can walk...have to see how the game goes..but through my years  of football, i have  always been a stat nut..if i can bring that in, it  will add a heck of  alot to the game.

I don't care about league rankings, as that would be too much work.  As for Pro Bowl votes, we'll see how we do throughout the season.  I would like to know James' numbers once the season begins, but I was actually referring to ability scores, and the Madden idea isn't a bad one.

year and years ago we had an electric fotball league..we had  all the teams, plus  some  we made up. I still have the stat books for those as we kept  every yard.

  The league rankings  isn't a big deal if i use  Madden or another game like it. Since the game does all the other stuff..I would just check where  our  players  are.

  Yea, as we get near the 1st preseason game, I will have you folks flesh out your players scores...right now..just trying to get some good RP  backround to go with the game

Howdy, new LOLB in town. Running this alongside Mik to play both sides of the field and thought that this would be a fun char to introduce to the mix.

Let you know I'm here today...then gone to next week. Madden-esque...interesting. Could be cool.

Other thing I was going to work out for you...and as a surprise for Brutus. His...brother playing in the League. A brother...who got drafted high in the Draft by Miami. Thought I would work it in...and maybe...just maybe...there being resentment between the two. Brutus...upset to see his dream...lived out by another Tibbs.

 Welcome Carlos I guess you'll be joining Kane and my self on Second Team but with some good RP we can make First team.

  right now, First team means, most of those  folks  have thier decals..not all though. Second  teams means, late  comers  and those who are on the fence.

  The Brother Tibbs in Miami  may be a good thing, since  Miami is one of the Teams  who aren't too thrilled with the  way the Amota's not only got  around the Cap, but the  way the were able to structure  contracts...The Cowboys and Texans resent them as well.

  The Jets, Giants  and Chargers are allies, of sorts...the rest of  the teams  do not  care one  way or the other...however...most of the teams do not  mind seeming the  Dragons  giving  the Cowboys blackeyes in the press.

 I just feel sory for the Offence that has to face us.

 New face New Role Player the all New Ivan Chevaleir

Welcome back Ivan, just in time to be the all star of the second team.

  the perks of being the only Full back on the team..Tight ends  and the  other HAlfbacks  will be used as well

  here  are some vids, just fopr  fun.

  the first, is a vid  about the town i live in, and deliver  mail...in the vid, they show a smaller  town called Mine 40..you can see my house just off to the right of  the Red Brick powerhouse...kids  from school were doing a travelog satire.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8mCLz7n1JY

  The  second Vid, is one my son made of  some of the tricks  my dog does. My son is going to FLa  to school soon, and  wanted to have something to remember the doggy with.

 WAKE UP EVERY BODY WAKE UP AND POST!!!!!

  this  is one of the times in the game, where you can post two threads at once..the locker room thred for after practice/before the party...and The Rising Son  thread for the party..enjoy!

Hey, Steele's using my avatar!

Hey all, on vacay from Sunday till Wed day, so I will post in the party thread when I get back on Wed. Have fun!

neat Kat..enjoy!

 I'll change the Steele avatar

 Sorry people I had a death in the family and will be gone for the next few weeks or so but will try to post (that goes for Ivan as well)

Good news. I'm back from my sojourn so will be able to start posting regularly tomorrow. Sorry for the delay but it was a long week. At least the Hypnotist show was entertaining to watch.

I'll leabve  your guys  alone  then for now..

Desul?  I will  do Ivan for you if  i don't hear from you in  a bit..but RL  comes first. take  care of your family..I think this  game is going to be around  awhile...I am a bit bummed though, this is the first week  we didn't  pick up a new player...ah well..I look for things to get heavier when summer is over.

Did someone take over La Roi?  That was a nice post.  He actually seemed human, was pretty endearing.

nope, not yet..sheesh  had to edit  the post..trying to do too many things  at once.

already did :P

::chuckles:: saw that ..thanks for posting!

Got limited time on the net for a few days so feel free to godmod Mik and Carlos until I get back (weekend most likely).
Cheers

I nominate them for a drug overdose.  EDIT: 600!

got  them for now...see ya later, thanks for the heads up.

as in football stuff comes up that you might not expect. For me...it's the flu. I should be able to post on Sunday though. Sorry for delay...but it's hard to type...when you spend most of your time above...Mr. Porceline Man.

Please.  I can not take much more of this.  Stop making everything about Adam.

have to fill in backround, while waiting for player to post

So you decided that a simple background would be spontaneously approaching Adam and asking him for advice.  So La Roi, who has hated Adam from Day 1, decides to not ask a coach, or a manager, or a veteran player, or someone he gets along with, but an NFL rookie he can't stand.  I know you love Adam, but when you GM a game it is about the players.

  when you GM a game, you can handle it as you wish. there  are reasons  what is going On , La Roi is trying to keep his  job. I need not justify what i do...that is  why I am the GM.

  I keep the  game  moving  through the NPCs..mostly Adam, since he is  a player. When  the Players  have the characters do something, I can respond and continue with what is going on. Elsewise they get swept  along  like the NPCs.

  I noted you post alot in OOC..but do not  do much as per RP...if the game is not  to your satisfaction, you have a couple of options...1. becoame more active in the RP...or 2.step away from the game and find  one more suited to you.

I am currently waiting for a response.  At any rate, since you love your NPCs so much, grats on your new one.  Gerhart is all yours.

  ok  folks, sorry about that. Gerhart is gone we shall see hwat happens to the charater himself.

  so all understand? I use all the NPCs  to  further  the game along, or  add to RP. I use Adam more then others, because he is a player, that i know more.

  As  for the Players and thier characters...do not be afraid  to post as much as you wish. between your posting, the storylines, and 'hooks' that pop up as you folks  RP...that is  what  makes a RP game worth playing

  Earlier in the game, we had  some very good RP, I hope  , now, that will continue. I respond in some  way or the other  for the players to RP with...so have  fun and thanks  for playing!

  and  HAppy 4th!

 I am  starting the  3rd  and last day of  the volentary minicamp thread.

 Please feel free to also post on the party thread Until  the end of the week. Giving  folks  time to post who might have missed because of holiday.

 howdy folks, Got  another RTJ that looks pretty good. Please send me a PM  to let me know if youare still playing, so I can NPC soem of the PCS  that might be orpaned.

  Thanks!

welocome  Wade Wheeler  new OLB

Welcome Wade! Hey all, I'll post when I get a second, life's been crazy. Plus, don't want to drag the game towards kicking when minicamps are usually about the passing and rushing, and D.

Thanks! The name was actually suppose to be Cam Wheeler, but I was also considering Wade Phoenix and must have mixed up the names. I actually like Wade Phoenix better, but it sounded odd with him also being from Phoenix. LoL. Anyway Wade Wheeler is fine.

I posted in the "Locker Room" thread as I wasn't exactly sure where else to make my intro at. This looks fun and is a pretty unique idea for a game.

Go Cardinals!...er I mean Dragons.

I'm still here with Mik and Carlos. Welcome to the game Wade, hope you enjoy it!

  Sorry..if you wish to  change  Wade's  name. let me know  and i will see if i can reset the character..the roster is  easy to edit.

  Locker  room is   a good start, the Current Thread is Minicamp day 3..If you wish you can posy in the " Rising Son " thread  as well...you could have arrived late that night  and  the Coaches mentioned about the party to you..

  Kat? Don't  be afriad to post what you want...she  can be  working on Kicking  while  the restv of the  team is on the other end, or she  can RP with folks..let you imagination run loose....after this minicamp , there is  going to be RP  for  some of the endorsements the players picked up, that will then lead us to  the Mandatory June minicamp...at that same  time  folks  can post on another thread until we wind down the endorsement threads.

 when we get to the first pre-season game..i will be trying a fee things to see what works  best for us as far as the ball games  go...I will be setting up  some Private threads  for some stats that  you can build, and edit as the game goes on...didn't  want to do it until i have what i want to do for games  settled.

  Remember, this  is free form..You post what you like, I will figure out what happens and post replies...the main thing is RPing..can't  move the game without it!

  Thanks  for playing folks!

Hey ya'll Carlos & Mik here. I'm going to have to drop this game as the two games I currently run are taking up too much of my time to play in anything - and it's only looking to get more hectic.

I've had a good time here and would love to stay but it's just not possible at the moment. So good luck with this and I hope you all get to the playoffs - GO DRAGONS!

Cheers,
Chris

  Hi folks, I would  Like to know how many players i still have, Please  post here, or send  me a PM so I can reorganize  what we have  for posting.

Still around, life still throwing curves at me.

::chuckles:: thanks  Kat.In between pitches drop a line or two. I will move us out  of Minicamp on Sunday. And RP the endorsments. and anything  else everyone  wants to do before  mandatory  workouts.

Endorsements sound good.

Still here as well.  Work and real life have been crazy the last couple of weeks, but hopefully should have sometime this weekend to post.

very neat..post  when you can. These games  go through stuff like this, I will amend the  next bump to say we lost a few players.

  Nice to have some who stuck around though!

going to  add the endorsement  thread..folks should post there... as well as the last day of Minicamp, if there are any who want  to try and do some stuff  with thier character before i shut it off.

 some  endorsment thread is up, if you don't  have one. post there might be one for you.

  also  , there is the "downtime"  thread to post  the going on  you wish to have your  character  doing...remember. this  is Freeform RP..need RP to move the game  along.

back from vacation. I'll post when I can. Things are so hectic right now!

sounds  good..except  for alexia..the others  seem to have left or are on vacation..hoping we get more  when NFL starts..we'll see. heck, I run  this game  if i only have one player..i like  the RP, be nice  if he had more folks though.

ok..seems  we lost another one...if needs be we keep the game going  for the girls, with the other folks NPCed..and hopes  we get more folks  as Football season grows near..

 have  another player coming on board..Welcome Rebekah

Hi everyone. Thanks for letting me join the game. I think it's going to be fun being a PR and I can't wait to see what trouble my character is going to have to bail the football players out of. Anyhow (waves to all) I wish to say hi to the team and remember... I will be watching you. ;) >Fades into the backdrop<

Welcome aboard!

Hey, Rebekah, welcome aboard! Looks like we got a lot of girl power in this game right now, but hopefully we will get some guys on board soon that us ladies can boss around! Look forward to RPing with you.

Thanks Katelyn and Alexia, I look forward to role-playing with you too and know that with girls like us around we'll definitely have them coming to call. ;) Am I cocky? LoL Maybe a little bit. (Holds up a hand showing an infinitesimal spacing between her thumb and forefinger.)We should all do a girls night out some time...

Well Rebekah, I did leave the door open for someone else to join me on the show. It'd be nice to have another player to interact with, no offense meant to the GM, but I like not having a cast of NPCs around me at all times, and Alexia is off elsewhere also doing press stuff :/

  no offense  taken.. the only good thing  about  most of the Mainline  NPCs, is that they used to be PCs, so i have some bits of personalitly to play off of..My NPCs  are  a bit smoother, because i know thier backrounds..so-to-speak.

  Anyway? Those  of you who have stayed, have at least grasped the idea, that this isn't a game or situations...it is a RP driven game, and ...for the most part...a Player driven game. The more you folks  interact with eachother, the more PCs, whether Mainline or support, can add to that....when you add that to the storyline of the football team itself, we could, indeed, have alot of fun.

  The most successful games i play in, are built  around the charaters interactions.

  Coming up , as far  as  the GM plot line, we have this endorsement/downtime..then Manadatory camp...folowed  by summercamp and the preseason...and into the regular season...some of that  may  or may not  be pushed forward, if there are not many dragon  team members.

 Remember, Your characters have thier own lives, that are entwined  with the team and the world that surrounds them,I can play off any thing you folks  come up with, as well as throw out  my own stuff..so? Don;t be afraid to post...and if there is something you wish, that there is not a current thread for? let me know....most of all..have fun!

  Happy Labor  day. Football season is just a few days  away! enjoy the holiday!

::sigh:: this  will be the last week i post for players...if i get no interest in the game  By 12-4 i will shut  the game  down. Thanks  for those  of you who tried.

..so..the season went on..the presean was ok..2 for two..the regular season was surprising.the season ( according to my sims) the Dragons won 13, lost 3..won thier divison a.nd helf home filed thru the playoffs, There was issues  with Steele's drinking..Bronk had to quarterback the last two regular season games, since Fillings got hurt, and Jo was put on IR.

  Kat won two of the games in OT..as well as 2 more in the last seconds of he games.

  Alexia and her girls did thier job well..The dragons, team, cheerleaders,anyone who had something to do with the Dragons were well recieved...Alexia had dated a few of the palers through the season, but was seeing an awful lot of a Ad Rep for a line of athletic clothes.

  many things happened to many of the players..awards won and fame grew..the next stop was the playoffs, and theu would be playing at the Dragon's Lair............

 thanks to all who tried...i will give it another day or two fro you to pull any info off before i delete the game...happy holidays to all.

 howdy folks, if there  are any who check this  board anymore. I had thoughts of reviving the game. Instead...  if any of you are interested, i think you should go to this game...link to another game

  this is a football game of a player  that was in both my game, and the one that came before it. Could use some more players..check it out!

  Going to dust off the boards, and  bring in some folks  from another football game , if they wish to play.

  going to jump in , about hwere they are now...with a slight change in the storylines, but the main plots  are still alive...Character's  who's players have not answered this board before Thursady will be deleted, and we will start afresh with the new guys, and start posting ads.

Response :p

::chuckles:: that's one!

 ok..we have 2..Kat, and Ben..I will start the  "catch up thread" tonight...and give the others   a chance. I want to get the vets in from the other gasme, before  advertising.

Hey there!

I'm ready to play. Football, that is :)

alright, Lucas  and Celeste have signed on as well.

 Please, if you have  not did it  already, pic  a portrait, and put up a brief description of you charcter..you can put  as much backround up, as you think you want folks to know.

  In this "world" Adam was brought to this team, by the Head  coach, and  The owner...they both have reasons  for signing him, but he still has to make  his own way...

 Kat was  drafted..Highly touted as a kicker, by ignored by all save the Dragons...The New  owners of  the Dragons are putting thier mark on the NFL. They have all but, rebuilt half the city of Jacksonville, bringing in  factories, restarunts, shopping centers..and a huge  sports  complex, that has extra  practice fileds, that they allow the Community to use, when  the Dragons do not need them.

Adam PLayed  a Year in Japan with Amota's son and was a  Team mate at Mellon University...he then played one year in Cananda  before getting the  Call from Coach Sims...the rest of the players are all freeagents  and draft choices, with a few trades mixed in...only  a handful of Jaguars  were kept.


  The Dragon's  biggest rival is the Cowboys, though they are in differant oonferances..the sudden popularity of the Dragons  and thier 'people first' views have  rubbed the Dallas owner and a few others the  wrong  way...The dolphins are next in the rival ladder, as they have to share the state with them as far as the AFC goes..The Jets and Chargers owners have helped   The Amota's, as they see Jacksonville's rebirth , as a good thing  for the league.

 So here  we are. Ben And Lucas  will be coming in the door as a few othewrs  have been Cut. Its a week before the first Preseason game...I will make a intro post for them.

 Celeste will have been there..the #2 of the Cheerleaders...But rumors  have it that the head cheerleader, might be jumping ship to join a cosmetic  Company as pitch person and PR person...which would give Celeste the Captains  job.

 Welcome  aboard..and i hope this game takes off..remeber..Freeform needs the players RP!

Thank you thank you.  Glad to be on board everywhere I can be.

One more thing?  All the new folks  can go through some of the old threads...like the Rising Son, ect ect..and get a feel for some of the NPCs  expecially the owner and his son, the coaches.

 Some of the Old PCs have been reduced to NPCs...they will be whittled away as we get PCs at thier position... I am Keeping Mik, since he started  here, and it was his game  were  were in before he fell ill...let's call it a tribute  charcter.

 Hope we can get this going, if nothing else, you'll know there will be posts  almost daily from me.

Hey everyone, Bethany's player here.  I'm joining as one of the ladies playing football, doing a Deion Sanders thing of Cornerback and Wide Receiver.  I got her relevant background up in her description.  Looking forward to playing with you all.

pretty neat..posted today..and a few hours  . had  a new player to go with the returning Vets..Welcome  Bethany...and the  transferred Vets, Ben, Lucas and Celeste, as well as KAt who player in both games...and of course...Adam...

 Lets  see what we can do with this story!
This message was last edited by the GM at 14:38, Wed 16 Nov 2011.

Thank you for the warm welcome :)

Glad to be here, and ready to pull my weight on and off the field.

Any local schools up for some coaching or even a visit?

 Man..have to admitt..like having this game  going again..Like the  postings  so far as well.

 I am going to take a page from  Mik's  game. and refine it a RP heavy game. Once i get the details sorted..I am going to put a  sheet up on the threads. I will ask you all to fill out the sheet and add it to your CS section...taking another  page  from my space game, I will add 'coaching points' to the starting   numbers..and with those, we will make the Limited  dice rolls, for certain aspects of the game.

  Make no mistake, this is RP heavy game...but the chance factor of the Dice rolls will be nice to come into play, from time to time.

FYI Ben, think you need to edit your last post before I can edit mine back in.  :)

Have done, looks like Adam didn't read what I'd originally said so modified it to suit his post...

No worries.

  most likely my fault..i said " to the inside"..I meant the insdie of the filed..not the PLayer..had the ball been goingto the  inside of the Reciver..Beth would have been going nthe other way with it.

 I forget myself sometimes, espically in the play calling RP..I call the routes and such like i do with the Guys  on Sunday, and forget that you guys can see me make the call or see my hand motions and such...sorta..too much backround   can be..well..too much backround!

Center linebacker starter and backup reciever here!
Possitions and skills based on mine. Hard working, wants his team to be the best, and can only catch consistently if he's faceing the ball, reaching catched are bad, but can make jumps.

 Mr Howes is still on hold yet, until we  get sheets  and such  straightened out..he  will be  brought in when ready.

 Please..all players  go to the Character Points thread..Cut  and past it into your CS section and fill it out..PM me when you are done, I will add  coaching points as per RP and backround...once that is all done, players  will earn points for thier characters through RP and events that happen...when you reach a certain number, I will PM you, that you will have  "x" amount of  points to add  to your character..thus..your  character  grows in both RP  and  Points.

  Please fill them out  as soon as you are able.  thanks guys!

A question with the starting stats.  It says we start with 5 in all, and can put up to 20 in a stat.  Does that mean we can start with a 25 (putting 20 extra points in) or start at 20 (putting 15 extra points to max at 20)?

yep yep

Which is it though?  We can make it 25, or 20?

oops. sorry...yea..you can get as high as 25...using  no more the  20 pts from your  startup..once you are done..you cut  and  paste the sheet to your CS section  and i will add some points   as earned..and  we  start from there.

Got it, and PM'd.

check your sheet..everything has been added.

  in my other games,  and  in some other  DM/GM games..we have a 'rule'...the catch all name for it is 'Flex time'.

  Because of the  differant rates  that some players can post, do not feel you have to be in a hurry to push on to the next  thread. You can finish your RP in trhe thread that you are  in as long as..A. The thread is not being used  for  something that your time has passed...or B. You do not post things in that thread, that your characters  would not  know about, in the  future threads...You can post your characters in more then one thread at a time...Just make sure it makes  sense.

  when you want folks to know your character is moving to another thread  just put this   at the bottom  >>>> ( new thread)

  example..Bronk leaves the townhouses and goes to the Rising Son. "  Bronk  got in his  car to drive to the club >>>> ( rising  Son)...

hope everyones weekend has went well.

very neat..we  reached 900 ( from last time and this time  togther...lets see some  morte RP out there, so we can get this game  moving.

Sorry for any delays the last couple days.  RPOL was giving me a variety of technical issues a fair bit.

Happy Thanksgiving to all...or happy Thursday..depend on what side of the pond you are on!

  jsut crossed 1000 posts..granted  the foundation was  from the first round of the game, but  we have had  steady posting...i am hopin it picks up, and we can get a few more  players.

We're moving along at a decent pace.  I think once we move on to some of the practices and games, we'll click along a bit quicker, too, regardless of number of players.  I've been enjoying the overall quality of posts so far, and that's better than a bunch of fast, not-as-good posts, I think.  :)

agreed. My goal ( in all my games) is great RP..with the game fucntions , just there to add to the uncerttainy of success or failure...as long  as folks keep posting..the  game  will keep going!

Gah, sorry for the delay on my end.  Crazy work and the weekend limited me to mostly phone access for the vast majority of the day.  Though I think Bethany is on her way out of the club for the time being.  I think she feels a bit like she has to earn her place onto the team before she'll be comfortable at the club.  Then she might actually relax a bit more there.  ;)

not a problem...as isaid before ..the main thing for this game is the RP, and  certain things  happen to help introduce plotlines, characters ( and NPCs) ect ect...so take part in what you want...and RP with others  at other places...I will be moving us on to nect day soon...I polan for the  preseason game to either  be right before xmas...or a few days after, depending on the players..Holidays  are hectic..and RL comes first.

Moving on to the Preseaon week...you may still 'backpost' in off duty if yuo want to RP the rest of the night out.

 Merry Christmas  to all!

howdy folks...Happy New Year to all..Thanks for playing! Wishes to all , for a great New Year!

 i'll give  Cat a bit  of time to get her RP going..until then? RP the sidelines  and such, until we go back out.

  just noted a sad thing...the other  football game  is set for deletion. Never got any word back from him, and still couldn't advertise for the game...so? we're the only football game in town now..lets try to keep it going!

That is sad and I hope we can keep this one running.  I'm having fun.

PS:  If you want to put an add in my DND game, you're welcome to it.

ok..moving the scimmage along. I will normally wait a couple days, for those to post, then move on ...don't  want the game to freeze up like the others did.

 as far as posting goes? remember this is  a RP game, you can post more then  just the propmpts..those on the  sidelines or outside the practice  can do about anything yhou wish...

watching the Movie " nessessary roughness"...it has a "kat-like" character in it

Sorry for my delay in posting.  RL came along and smacked me pretty hard.

that tends to happen!

ok folks... as we  have a couple of threads that deal with practice  and such..I am going to close down a few of them, and Put  up  a practice thread..we will go there for all practices, I will simply make a post  to end  one game's pratcies  to seperate it  from others.

 once again Thanks for playing!

 On friday, i will be settting nus upm for the game, between then and now, we will have  any RP you wish to do.

  The  practices  will be posted  quickly, unless there is something a particular PLayer  wishes to RP out...other then that, you can go to any thread, for  off time...Rising Son...Dorms...doing extra  stuff at the complex...its up to you guys...There are plot lines in place, some have been triggered , some have been missed, tohers  are waiting to be created by your RP ( some of you in my other games know this!)

 HAve fun!

as the game goes, i will pause to allow  folks to RP , and in some cases, rool dice   and RPO  out a certain play...the  players can RP what they are  doing on and off the filed, interact  with each other  of  NPCs.

 I have errands to run and will go ahead  with the coin toss and the start of the game, even if the  girls  can't  rp out thier Coin toss scene.

  to keep the game moving, i may allow a day or two between  GM  posts, to allow folks  to get thier posts in, if all players post before that, i will naser that day.

  Take care!

I'll be posting for either of them tomorrow.  Had a busy couple of days between my husbands surgery tuesday and my feeling bad monday.

ouch...hope he is doing ok!

Yes he is doing ok.  Just outpatient surgery to dialate or stretch his throat.

doesn'ty  sound like a good time..Hope  all goes well!

I will be posting  some game results everycouple days, please  feel free to have your PCs  interact, discribe thier play from thier Point of View, ect ect.

Looking forward to getting on the field...

Ok  Ben, Lucas, Beth...post your  routes..then roll a 1d100 on the dice  roller..

  all other players , don;t be shy about posting your  characters reactions  ect ect...as we go..remember this is a RP driven game.

gonna give Beth a chance to post ..will post tomorrow   if not...or sooner  if she posts.

With a 95 roll, if that is the better end of the roll...I'm going to hate to see who gets hurt or something.

Hey everyone!  I'm new to this game and hope to make an impact, positive of course :)

::chuckles:: he beat me to it!  Welcome  our new CB..Quentin Q-ball Dawson...he is the first "live" defesnive player since the rebirth!!

Welcome aboard!

1300 + way to go folks!!

Welcome aboard, Quentin!

I'm Ben, TE of this parish...

Thank you!

Welcome to the new guy! And I'll be away for the weekend, so I'll do my best to post, but we'll see!

 howdy folks..we are getting another CB..this one, many of you  will remember  from the Gave that folded, before  we came back here...welcome..Miguel Santos..CB.

Thanks for having me. Miguel Santos will do his best to make the rest of you not look so bad, no promises. Hello everyone.

oh good :)  Welcome :)

Welcome back and aboard Miguel

Good to see you again, Miguel.

Celeste, Ben, good to see you two. Hope you've all been well.

doing alright other than going back to school and back to work

Ok.. sorry Migeul forgot i had the  play cued up...when the D  takes the field next time..Santos   and Q-ball are in.

looking through the Character sheets...some folks  didn't do the Character points yep, please do  that as soon as possible..put  the points up  like the  form on the  "character points  Thread"..paste it into a PM for me..I will paste it into the CS...thanks guys!

ok..not sure what happened to Beth..but i will NPC her  a bit., so the  game  can go on.
This message was last edited by the GM at 00:24, Thu 23 Feb 2012.

  just to put this up for  the new folks. when/as i move the game  along, you may stiull RP in an older thread , as long as you don't use  the "future thread info, in the early thread.

 In my games we use a term called "flex time"..this allows  players to RP out things as the game moves on.

 between the Flex  Time, and RP in threads  when you character is not in the focus, helps build the charater's backrounds, and  adds RP to the game..which , my games are heavy in.

  Post reactions, what they are doing feeling ect ect..intercat with other PCs  or NPCs..besides the Main plot of the season,there are mnay subplots waiting to be triggers..and even more, that the players themselves, might cause to be born..so have fun!

Wow, we playing low numbers good right >.> Not a great start.

Not at all.  We talked a big game..but our rolls don't back it up ;(

I think it was santos who got beat, not quentin.

Or am I wrong?

We both did...The ball just happened to be thrown my way and I obviously utterly failed my play roll "sighs"

Hmm, guess I misunderstood.

  trying notmto give too much away, as to how things  work...But  Santo's roll..even witht he  points  for his stats, wasn't gonna help...if you both had  rolled high or low, I would have had to randomize who the QB woudl throw to..but it this  case..its like Sunday Moring..I see i guy break down field, the ball's gone!

  so it  was Miguel that bit the big one
This message was last edited by the GM at 21:29, Fri 24 Feb 2012.

just rub it in...thanks..."grumbles"

I kinda figured it was me since I rolled much lower. BTW, gm. What do we consider poor/good? Like Quentin rolled mid 60s. So it was fairly bad, but but what's considered decent? 70s? 80s? I'd like to know to have an idea how the rp thread would go with the roll.

again? without giving  away how it  all exactly works...'cause i want this  a RP  game, not  just building nyour guys up for dice...But..the Higher the Better...and you get some bonuses , depending on how your stats  shake out..BUT..the bad guys have that as well... if yoou would have been up in the 60's  with Q-ball.. i would have done  an Odd-even thing to see which guy he threw to..then it would  have  came down between your rolls, and  the NPCs rolls...as well as your RP...but single digits  are too cool.

 Beth's  TD pass could have  Been Ben's..Bronk lowed rolled  lower, sand the  Saftey on his side rolled low, so he went after  Bronk..Bens roll wasn't too bad., But Beth's  was  way up there..saddly..i had to roll for her...I am thinking we may have lost her? But i'll keep the character   going until we get another  WR/PC

You are having a bad effect on me... I dreamed about football last night, and the team had green jerseys.

They were playing the Railroaders, though!

Who knows?  Cincinnati could have taken that name!  or was it New England...

The Railroaders are the American Football team here in Crewe.

They certainly took an interesting name....I would have loved to have sit in on that discussion.

"Alright boys, we've got the name this team, something truly American, so they'll know you're not playing that sport soccer...Any ideas?"

"Yeah, I got one!  What's more American then...the railroad!"

"Perfect! now we just need a logo..."

Crewe is widely regarded as the railway capital of England... so it was quite an obvious choice. They play in grey jerseys and black pants with silver helmets with a locomotive decal.

oh...well, ya learn something new everyday!  Thanks for the information :)  of course, I still wish my above conversation had gone on...I think it would be funny...but "sigh" anyway.

Damn it, now I'm dreading these rolls. If I roll another single digit, totally packing my things and heading to the parking lot.

Here goes *crosses fingers*

....Ok. Miguel Santos has retired forever. He is now going to go play Golf.

I have no idea what to type with a 1...did he break a leg or something?

really?..I one? man....Santos should not  have held out in Dallas!

I blame the drugs, women and kick backs. Im at a loss. The dice roller used to love me! I shouldnt have left it.

  Oh well...it will give him plenty of  RP..that's for sure!  Go ahead and post something up..I'll do some rolls here to see what happened with him...but...it looks like they took him downtown again..have to see why though.
This message was last edited by the GM at 23:50, Sat 25 Feb 2012.

Perhaps we should switch receivers...maybe the dice roller would love you the... plus, it would mix them up, one's used to burning a corner, the other?  is used to gettin' blanketed.

ok..I'll give santos a chance to post before  posting..

 One thing for all players..when you make a dice roll..either  post it  at the bottom of your post..or PM it to me...I check the dice roller the last 2 times for Miguel's, but it makes it better for it to be pasted  in the htread..if you want?..make it a private line

I'll leave the posting to you GM. On my phone atm, cant really post anything major anyway. I dont want to slip again, either straight up burn I'm guessing or Santos is falling into quicksand. I will say this, he's starting to freak out. He knows the receiver isnt better than him but he's messing up too much.

like  i said, good or bad..there should be room for all kinds of RTP..post coming up

Need a kiss for the boo boo Mig?

Prefer you give my dice a kiss and give me some luck. Not the greatest start for him. Still...could help with his attitude a bit and give him a nice wake up call.

<Blows on Miguel's dice for luck>

11:37, Today: Miguel Santos rolled 11 using 1d100. Check ben's luck. 

Thats ok ben, thanks for trying. It's my best roll yet.

its more then  the other 2 put together!!

I'll blow on the next one...but I doubt it will help.  LOL

::sigh:: have not heard  from Beth..have to assume she bailed. Can only hope that she didn't like the game, rather then some bad RL thing.

  I will Keep beth on the roster  until the end of march, or..until a PC wide out joins up.

It's horrid that she's not playing.  Oh well.  We must move on.

alright..Why do I have Miguel's luck with the Dice roller?  gr...Kat, kiss my dice for good luck, please? "grins"

 its those  rookie DBs..they'er choking!!

Alright, I ain't rolling till celeste or anyone with some good luck kisses those dice.

<blows on Miguel's dice...>

::chuckles:: comon'...time to make a play..or not..either way  will be worth alot of RP!

If I screw this up, I want you to give miguel an injury. Three back to back blown plays, might as well go back to the minors.

Thank you, ben. If I fail this. I blame you. J/k. here goes....

Well, it's not good, but better than before. This time just slightly on below average. Let me eat and i'll get my rp going.

Next time just roll them between my lucious hills Mig.

Can't get luckier than that.

sheesh..ben had the hioghest PC roll ever..thus far!! this keeps up..The Dragons will have a great year!

Getting better, thank you Celeste.

No problem Mig

It goes without saying, that die was rolled in the same place. You really are lucky, Celeste.

as look as you had dice!

yes,yes she is.

It's better than rolling another single digit

very true!  I guess I'd just say, hope you don't pull tht when the games actually matter!

Depends on how the dice roller feels about me that day, she can be a cruel mistress.

indeed!  also how do you whip someone off? GM I didn't know Washington was into whips and chains...

Whatever makes em happy.

well now?..Ben should roll dice  for the  whole team!

I don't normally get on this well with the RPOL die roller, or indeed dice in general.

Probably better to use Ben's rolling plains there Mig.

Not as enjoyable

You want to roll your dice WHERE???

for now  folks..you can gom any where you wish on the threads to RP..or go stright to the  Rising  son...

Do we make our own entrance gm? or you going to set us up at the rising son thread?

  A former  player  from both football games  asked me to post this , to see if any here  wish to play

Sure I'd be up for it.

I told him  i would post it?  Just sign up and  go.. if there is  a chat thingy there, let him know you are from this game.

Hey guys I will be gone for a week.  Just lettin ya know now.

Thanks  for the Heads up!..we'll be moving to  practice/travel this week coming up.

Please may we have a chance to Dragon Stomp in the club first?

 yep..when the night  winds  down  Yuto  will make sure the Dragonettes  do the Stomp..along with  any players they can drag out..then  fans will join in, that will be the  end of the night, except for  any RP players  want to do..

  when i switch to the  next practice  week..any who still wish to Post   for the  night  can do it  in "flex time"

Hello to all, this seems like a really fun game and I can't wait to join you all really soon.

Wow - a nnew player... welcome to the Dragons Julius!

In reply to Julius Chabluk (msg #315):

welcome aboard!!

sometime  Sunday night , we will be starting the   thread  for the next game...please  feel free to flex play in the Rising  Son, or any other , free time, threads you wish.

Excellent. Who are we to play next?

  Happy Easter.

 alright  folks, I brinking up  the thread " practices," for use  right now..when game day gets here, we  will go back to the  "preseason thread"

  any and  all who are  RPing  in the Rising Son, or Preseason thread..go ahead  as  per "flextime" rules.

Its nice to have  a steady flow of RPing here, theis is way better then the  first time out!

Nice to have for sure but a lot to read now that I am back. few extra days never hurt vaction wise. I will hop in and get caught up asap.

not a problem..hope you had  fun

 just  a note..i put up from time to time...This is   a heavy RP  game, the dice rolls that are used   are normally done  by me on  another site, but from time to time , i'll have a player  roll..just for  gaming...the  real influence  comes  from RPIng.

 when i move   a thread  along, if you character is in an "older" thread..you can continue  your RP there as well..as long   as your  'past' character   doesn't get influneced by the  future thread.

 Also? if any one wants a Private thread for RPIng  or behind the scene stuff Let me know  and i will set it up.

 Great going so far.. be nice to snag a few more active players..but you guys are doing great!!

  for the  PCs...please  roll a 1d100 and put it  in  a private line, or a PM to me..for the race at practice...I am going to put  up some RP of the NPCs  right now..then add to it after i get the dice  rolls.

going to give KAt and the DBs  a chance  to  roll for thier run yet..I will finish the run  tonight eother  way

  Congrates to all of you!..something i didn't think i would see , after the  game  went dormant the first time. But  we  passed 2000 posts!.... I hope we can keep this going, we are starting nto develope into more then just a dice rolling game...That was my plan...I hope  we can stay with it.

Can we have some events for the players - hospital or school visits and suchlike - please?

 yep, that is in the works  as well..Celeste's appearance wasbrought  up by her, as the   rerquests  filtered through the Organization to her  desk..

 The Team will have  functions  for the holidays, for certain...plus   Kickoff of opening  day, and after  camp breaks there  will be  requests  made of the players and the team.

 So?  Fear not! there is going to be plenty for the players to do!

  As  I write this, I am going to try something, to see if   it works, if it is too much strain on the  RP, i will cut back...

  Today in RL is  Wedensdaynight for me..(EST)..The Endorsement thread isn't important, but  could open  up some  more RP stuff , and plot lines...not  to mention earning points  towards player growth.

  For  our charcters..it is also Wedensday...The  nest practice  is Thurseday, a light  one since they have to  fly to  Buffalo after.

 I am going to post for the practice, and Load up the endorsement  thread..see if we can get  both threads  going, in time to  have them end before the Game thread.

 I will admitt, I will have the Draft on Thursady night  as i am posting  and  such, but i will find  time  to answer all posts.

 Take care all!

  I up dated your CS with money that  you have on hand...the  first payouts for the game.. I will deduct  money for  normal Living expenses as we goi along...so if your player  does any heavy enteratinign  or buting certain  goods and such. it will come off your  money at hand.

Is my rpol broken or has it been that dead these last two days?

just a few posts so far, keep hoping people  RP more, before  i move it along.

Howdy Folks...Julius  and I were talking   one  day and he asked  about "last season" I gave  he   the   rundown on where the  Dragons ( jags)  finished  last year  and he  did  a rundown using  Dice  and such  for the outcomes...I will post the  Division standings   along  with  his  rundown of the playoff matchups

  You will note..it  says, 2014 season...The dragons  are  getting ready to play  in the  2015 season...

Just so you all know: I've got hired as an IT lecturer and start Monday. Posting may be erratic until I get myself squared away, please bear with me.

Congrates!!

Congrats!

Thank you!

HOwdy.

  Pk...some sound  bites  by the ESPN team....I left out  posing the  questions to the team, so you Character  can answer  what ever question, you think he or she  would respond to...then Practice  will break, and go into the down time, before "tomorrow's"  game

howdy folks, welcome   our Newest WR. Isaiah Williams.

 Drafted out of Baylor, but  Oakland..became expendable when  the Raiders picked up a Vet WR in another  trade. He was  cut, and the Dragons picked him up.

For game purposes...he was on the  team the last week or so, campe in with Julius, as Beth was  put on IR.....

Welcome Isaiah!!

 Happy Mothers Day to those in our Group..who are Mothers!

In reply to Miguel Santos (msg #344):

Thank you!!!

Welcome to the team, Isaiah.

Welcome aboard Isaiah.  Thank you and Happy Mother's Day back.

welcome new person and thank you for making me the second new person now... ha ha not so new

In reply to Julius Chabluk (msg #349):

My Pleasure lol..

So just to be clear...we all at the dining area or just the management and the girls?

I would like to know as well so I can get into the game...

the whole team, The Bills  Owner is treating them to  Dinner  since they flew  in  with only    the one day to get a quick practice.

ok..gotta  figure Q-Ball  bailed..we'll have him NPCed  unbtil he either  gets  injured or  we get  another  warmbody at DB.

That sucks. He was posting often enough before.

I know..his last show  was 4-20

Sorry for delay guys.  School for me, work hours changed, and kids out of school  made this week and days harder to post.  I'm catching up now.

 Hey Julius, respoinded on the one thread   fro  the discs...use the   Off-duty thread for anything he does up til game time.

no problem boss, -snicker- sort had the post being in two places wasn't sure if I should split it up or just put it in the off duty one. but make sense from here. thanks

 kinda thought that, so i posted here.

 will be   starting Pre-game stuff tomorrow..everyone who is RPing the night before, can do  so in "flex  time"

 Howdy...Holiday weekend in US. Don't exp[ect much posting, but everythign that  will be happening for me, will be around my house, so i will be  checking the  boards to see if anyone posts, and will answer.

 Have a great weekend!

Im working today and off tomorrow. I'll be around, sorta.

post when yuou want, I'll answer  any posts that come up, when i check in.

 going to  give williams until wedensday, hasn't posted    for a while, so he may get cut.

ok..we lost   williams..seems he didn't   like waiting  around to post...forgetting that we were  waiting  around for him to post.

 everynow  and again we'll get  some players  who do not understand "heavy RP"  and  just want to roll dice.

  ah well, aleast  there  won't be too much adjustment in the storyline.

Alrighty then.  Onward Ho.

dice roll in dice roller.... sigh hope the number is good
