In case some of our *future* based races are wondering how to get involved in the story ken helped me come up with some stuff explaining what's going on and well,,how you can get involved with the story--ifyou wish.

Ken says:
Yeah, you super mega ultra mall thingy
Sparkie** says:
the Suplex Multi Storehouse?
Ken says:
uh, sure.
Sparkie** says:
its a compound of defenses and warehouses, its whre the Corp keeps its
staples
Sparkie** says:
err, boxes of staples
Sparkie** says:
you know, for stapling paper and things on poster boards
Ken says:
So like, where had you envisioned that being? You killed bun bun...um,
Jason's there...
Sparkie** says:
dunno
Sparkie** says:
like i said, a non tagible corporation could take over a non tagible environment
Sparkie** says:
but the enviornment is populated by humans from earth
Sparkie** says:
so...
Ken says:
earth of the past?
Sparkie** says:
yeah
Sparkie** says:
now a days
Ken says:
So wait...the corp. went back in time to earth to build this staples thingy?
Sparkie** says:
its somewhere in cyberspace *if you'll excuse the term
Sparkie** says:
yeah
Sparkie** says:
it idd
Ken says:
Wait....it's IN cyberspace?

___gap___

Sparkie** says:
the posting area is in cyberspace right?
Ken says:
I'm all kinds of confused.
Ken says:
uh, sure.
Sparkie** says:
but until i came it was just a forum..not even a "place" right?
Sparkie** says:
when i returned to the forum my eviction notice described the posting area as a commodity that was purchaced and a place that people could be kicked out of
Sparkie** says:
this began the tangibility of the posting area
Sparkie** says:
but, i evicted them as the character of the Cyrezx Corporation-but the corp is 11000 years in the future, so they had to go back in time to post the eviction notice right?

___gap___

Sparkie** says:
I gave them 4 days to clear out. when they refused the eviction for 3 days i posted that story about those two guys, who had come from the future to place a sign in the posting area. In that story i gave even more tangibility to the posting area by describing it as a feild with some trees around it, a medow if you will.
Sparkie** says:
this allowed the other members to join the story (because there was now a defined setting where characters could interact)
Sparkie** says:
aaron tried to sick bun bun on me, ME, wanting to write stories, forced bun bun into the now established setting of a medow. and the rest went from there
Sparkie** says:
it worked, aaron is in the setting, although he has some underground compound that is near enough to the Corp's basecamp but far enough not to be noticed...
Sparkie** says:
since the only populants of the medow were humans (because that's who was posting before i defined the setting) i guess we can say that it is on earth
Ken says:
Gee, thank you.

___gap___

Sparkie** says:
so do you think you have an idea that you can use to get into the setting
Sparkie** says:
think of the medow as a game board that can be reached if your on earth or in this time period

_small gap_

Sparkie** says:
bruce launnie and aaron are assumed to already be dwelling near or in the medow, or surrounding forest because they were there and din't get out when i told them
Sparkie** says:
but you me, teague, holling and paige all have outside defined circumstances
Ken says:
yeah...
Sparkie** says:
being 11000 years in the future, it'll take some createivity to get to the game board
Sparkie** says:
*hollin

__medium gap__

Sparkie** says:
see paige defined the last game board with her demensional rift story inthe beginning. this one is abit more abstract cause i defined it
Sparkie** says:
weee :) insanity is fun
Ken says:
for the whole family.
Sparkie** says:
lol
Sparkie** says:
should tell paige hollin and teague that too

...*so I did*

I'm still all kinds of confused...

For the record, the location of the base camp has not been firmly established, I'm not even sure if it's on the same planet as the original events. For all you know, I was just passing through the area enjoying the nice weather when a bunch of shmucks told me I had to leave. 8)

And I'm going to have to echo Ken. I'm also, "all kinds of confused". Of course, that's SOP for me.

And does anyone know why the forums aren't bumping the threads when they are replied to?

I've noticed.

Only one question, for what does NPC stand?

Wow Em, that's a lot of detailed work there. If we'd had those rules written out last time, things might have sailed a little easier. Thanks for taking the time to put that all down.

for the record, I thought that everything that emery said to ken made perfect sense. I do have one question though. How are you posting in the year 2019 there emery?

Posted: Wed Dec 11, 2002 9:12 pm
by ZOMBIE USER 4986
Sweet, it puts our posts in the middle cause Em posted "after" us. I'm coming back here in 2019 to post at the end of this thread.

*GASP* (That's pretty creative thinking, Bruce) Or he's gonna build a time machine! Or or or or.... *gets scared, hides behind Teague*

yes, we must definitly take this as a sign from the future. We cannot currently tell the threat level of this eventuality. Thus we infultrate the cyrezxcorp central offices and keep close tabs on their developement and research. More info will be given as the situation plays out. In the mean time, try not to look quite quite so paranoid. Reynold out..*shhhh...*

Now that we have all these nifty and comprehensive ground rules Emery layed down for us...um...is anyone going post anything?

Posted: Fri Dec 13, 2002 12:17 pm
by Soulripper
i thought i just did, though i guess im not too good at things like that

Um, the forum is having little a mid-life space/time crisis...has anyone else noticed we can no longer 'view' the posts Emery made in the future? It's almost as if some event that has occured in the present has caused them to cease to be in that would be future of 2019...methinks there might be techno-babble in great multitudes...

[Update] - No, I take it back, it's not that we can't veiw his posts, it's simply that I have no access to 'page 2' of this thread...does anyone else expierence a similar problem?

Posted: Mon Dec 16, 2002 3:59 pm
by Soulripper
ya, i can't view page 2 of the post either, and noone else can either, in fact your post is on page two so i cant read it either. But if you go to post a reply you can see what would be on page 2. Which Is why I could post this knowing what was said.

like the thing that i just posted. When i clicked on view your post, it took me to page 2 of 1. Now how does that work?

Posted: Mon Dec 16, 2002 4:05 pm
by Soulripper
there, now it realizes that there are two pages. I think it is programed to have so many posts per page, but the page can only be so long. But they don't work together

this is all fishy, emerys posts are there, then they arent, now they are again. i think that emery has found out about how we know what he shall do in the future years to come. he made the posts vanish, but failed to keep them that way.... the time to act is now, we must rebel and take over cyrezx corp. or all will be lost!!!
