Sorry for double posting, but the matter is important. So, here is the thing: it was important for me to duel Jory and allow Zechs to post before making the next Recap Post, but neither of them shoed up today (possibly because they didn't figure out the "clock on the eagle" thing). What should I do at this point? I mean tomorrow I will leave Bologna in the evening, so in theory it would be possible for me to make the Recap Post around midday, in order to give Zechs some more time... But even then, it would still be impossible for me to duel Jory tomorrow, so the most I could do is a "transition" Recap Post that would do nothing but stall for time, not adding anything to what is already going on. Or I could just leave everything to next monday, but is it ok to leave the roleplay unattended for such a long time? I dunno, maybe I could post here the basic guidelines of what I was planning to make happen next, and you guys could post of your own accord, without an actual Recap Post? And then on monday I would make a "Super Recap Post" to restore order... What do you think? I really need your feedback on this guys, because between the extraordinarily intelligent prank by Ame and the upcoming Easter holidays, this situation is not under my control anymore, so I want to make sure that I don't screw up my next move... It all boils down to: do you guys want a minor Recap Post that would do nothing but stall for time, or fo you want basic guidelines to be able to post, between now and monday, without an actual Recap Post? Please give me some honest answers and possibly some reasoning on them too. And keep in mind that "you are the host, do whatever you prefer" is NOT of help. I asked for your honest opinion because I am interested in hearing it, so please don't beat around the bush.

Read the physical description of the fortune teller again. Of all the places you could have gone... EDIT: well I guess you could spy on the swerve that is about to go on involving your beloved professor. That could make for some compelling narrative going on...

Frankly, none of them do. I am particularly worried about how I had to almost literally push people towards the port untill 2 minutes ago, because nobody would check that area, and now it is suddenly getting crowded...

I love them all, but Vaporeon is the one I've used the most in competitive environment. In-game, I've used Leafeon in Platinum, Vaporeon in Leaf Green, and pretty much all of them in Conquest (they are one of the reasons why I love Conquest). Long live Eevee!

It's becaue you didn't shout On a more serious note, of the people who were addressed in the previous Recap Post only Zechs is missing, meaning we can proceed with the Recap Post as soon as he shows up. Ftankly, I am not planning to stay here for long tonight, so I'll probably make the Recap Post tomorrow anyway, but well, considering that I will have to duel Jory and Chimchain, the earlier the merrier!

There are two wrong thins in this post. And one is that my name is spelled without the h <.<

Maybe. Or maybe not. I'll only say that somone did the one thing that was scripted to trigger the dreaded encounter. And the funny thing is that they did it of their own accord, without any prompt or imput on my part. I won't say what the action in question was tho, and I won't reveal who the unlucky one(s) are, untill I make the Recap Post.

No not that lol. The other "that one encounter"...

Well now check this out: somebody just triggered that one encounter...

Ok it would seem this is by far the best solution: tomorrow I will make the Recap Post, and with that the whole topic will be suspended (people will be free to post of course, but if you make an Important Action you still must wait for me to make the next Recap Post before posting again, and I won't be around untill next monday, so yeah...). Next monday I will make another Recap Post, thus allowing the roleplay to get back on track: from that moment, the roleplay will last untill the next sunday, that is april the 12th. Keep in mind that, in general, being like "ding dong deadline is here, I'm sorry you'll have to leave your investigation to next time" would be ok for me. In the future, I won't hesitate to do it should the occasion arise. But in this specific situation, I am settling with this decision because my absence for Easter holidays will rob players of 4 days that could have been used to duel (specially considering the point their investigation has reached by now), and well, doing so mid-hunt would have been really unfair. So yeah, this is the final decision: I am going to edit the OP of the IC topic too.

Frankly, as long as people enjoy the RP I am happy, I don't care about who achieves what... The sole reason why I am worried about the situation involving Tacos, the people in the Square and the people at the port is that they would lose the ability to duel NPCs 4 days in advance than expected because of my own fault, and it would happen mid-hunt too: I simply think it wouldn't be fair to them. But this doesn't change the fact that dueling will be absolutely impossible for me from thursday to monday: a possible solution could be to put the topic on hold with tomorrow's Recap Post, resume it on monday and have it last one extra week (untill april the 12th), so that those people can complete their investigations and duel their Rogues... I am discussing this option with Murdoc as I type this message, if he doesn't have a better solution this is probably what we will do. The alternative would be to ask those guys to beat around the bush in their posts from thursday to sunday, voluntarily stalling out their own investigation, and leaving the opportunity to find and duel the Rogues to the next £After School" topic, but I doubt they'd be ok with this after the effort they put in collecting info... I would like to hear their opinion on this matter tho.

Ooops fixed. lol as you prefer. This probably means that one Rogue will make it to the next After School topic, because so far you are the only one who managed to trigger the event that leads to him/her. Honestly, I am worried about the people at the port and Tacos/the people at the Square: I mean, they just pieced things together to get on the tracks of two Rogues, but time is almost over, and Easter holidays certainly don't help from this point of view... Of course Murdoc can handle the Recap Posts in my absence, but the problem is, if they do locate the Rogues they won't be able to duel them anyway, due to me being absent from thursday to monday...

Guys as explained earlier, today it is impossible for me to duel, and on thursday I get back to my hometown, meaning tomorrow is the only day I can duel. Therefore, if we want to get this done, it is essential that I am able to make the next Recap Post later tonight or tomorrow in the morning, so that I can spend the afternoon dueling... So yeah, if you are one of the guys listed in the latest Recap Post, please less posting here, and more posting in the IC topic!
