I forgot how fast panfandom places move, Jesus. If I don't check at least once a day, I miss a lot of crap. It's a little discouraging since unlike last time I was in a big place, I don't really feel like checking and reading a bunch of entries every day. Blargh.

In other news, I have a paper due this week, one next week, and three finals coming up (since second paper counts as a final). I'd rather play Oblivion than do any of that, though. I feel so lazy.

PROCRASTINATION POWER

Which game are you playing at?

I'm playing occasionally at Paradisa. Haven't done much yet despite being there for almost a month now. 8D;

Paradisa, orly?

Meh, Paradisa moved way too fast for me. Like srsly. I liked Somarium, but...I just recently dropped there for a couple of reasons.

I think I'm gonna try amat again ~~once I figure out a journal name~~. Its probably just as bad or worse though.

On a more random note, I miss Flonne and Vector CR hardcore.

Won't lie, main reason for joining Paradisa was because of some other RvB people that had... interesting canon relationships with the chick I was going to play.

Flonne and Vector were so fucking adorable, Jesus. I miss playing a lot of the characters I used to play and Flonne is one of those.

They so were. :< I miss playing a couple of my characters, but I've kind of rolled away from the Sonic Fandom, so its easier to ignore.

I'm just lazy and haven't changed my layout yet B|

I have, too, though I still get the urge to play Rouge sometimes, like this morning. I'm all about RvB right now, RP-wise. 8D;

Really? I guess I only read the RvB characters at Paradisa. It seems so slow to me because of that. Church hasn't posted in, like, a month. :D; Neither has Caboose, I think. It's mostly just Wash and York being idiots.

Church dropped a couple weeks ago due to lack of time because of rl issues, which is why they didn't post very much. I don't know if Caboose dropped and I didn't notice or what, since I check the OOC comm even less.

I just like skim most of the entries, like I typically do in panfandom games. I have a bad habit of if something doesn't catch my attention immediately or look like a character I know, I tend to ignore it and go ehhh. But when I have to hit the button to go see the past 20 entries while doing this, I feel there's a lot going on.

Ah. That's sad. He entertained me. None of the other characters seem to have noticed. :D; Poor guy.

Well, Econtra was like that. I had Shadow's flist set to display 40 entries, and sometimes had to go back a page. It didn't feel like too much to me at the time, though. But yes, major skimming.

The Tex did, which is where York responded to his disappearance. Caboose is the only other character that would have really cared and he hasn't been active, so yeah. 8D;

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It used to not be a big deal, but now it just feels like more, since I'm doing more things. It's one thing to do one-on-one stuff, since that goes straight to my inbox, but this requires me to actively search through a lot of things to respond to stuff and blargh. I think it has to do with that, the char I choose to play there first, and the fact that I joined for the wrong reasons. I thought it might be interesting to play somewhere with a Wash and a York to interact with and that was... it, really. I've done stuff with other people, though, at least.

Really? I didn't see anything about either of them noticing in their journals - and looking back now, I'm still not seeing it.

Got to go to work now, bye. :o

Oh yeah, now I remember. She forgot to tag her entry. Just went back and fixed that. You can find it here.

Go earn that money. 8|

Ahh. Yeah, no tags would do it. I'm surprised at the lack of logs in Paradisa, too, though I guess it's just mostly done a different way, where the log-ish threads tend to just happen in the journals. It's sort of weird, organizationally, but then again I really like doing log-style threads.

What we really need is an RvB DR. Though that comes with its own set of problems as well, obviously.

Yeah, it's really weird. I'm definitely not used to this style. 8D;

Like finding people to keep it alive, unfortunately.

Ah well. If every game played the same, there'd be no reason to have so many RPs on LJ.

Yeah. And I like panfandom anyway. Oh well.

Okay I'm gonna go eat dinner now, but I say that I'm bored with the current thread since it's lost pretty much all characterization relevance and so if you want to go ahead and tag that AU, I would approve wholeheartedly. :D

Pretty much, since I doubt they'll be having any important after talk. I feel weird leaving it off there, though, because it's incomplete. But I'll tag the AU in a bit anyway because I care.

Yeah, I know, it's a weird spot to end it. So I'll go ahead and tag and we can finish it, but yeah, Future AU woo.

First spot we can leave it at, we can, just so it's less awkward.

Sounds good to me.

dkjsaghdk Econtra

Dude,I ignored like...95% of Econtra.

...Won't lie, I did, too. Which made it kind of boring after a while. Very boring.

I watched like, the Sonic cast and...idk, a few others. Jareth, Jing and Kir...uuuh. Wow, I really can't remember too many of them.

The AU!Edward I watched a lot. But honestly, that was it. Then I left with Yukina.

I just kind of skimmed through everything, unless I saw something my char could/wanted to respond to. I remember watching Zim a lot, whenever there was one. Free entertainment. 8)

Dude, Zim and Rouge, fucking lol.

Yep, same here. It's just too easy to do in a big game where so much of what happens has nothing to do with your characters. Which is why Aphelion will be forced to be small - I'm tired of games where you can ignore everything like that. So many times in Econtra (and other large games), something relatively major would happen in a thread, like something that would have a major physical impact on the grounds or something, and nobody would notice because nobody read others' threads. Aphelion is a small location, with a strong emphasis on person-to-person interaction and cooperation, so it just doesn't make sense to have a ton of characters that you'll never follow. I'll admit that subconsciously, a good deal of the game's design is probably a reaction to problems that Angela and I had with Econtra.

I don't mind the bigger games, but I can see where you're coming from.

I think Econtra was just...a lot of stuff I wasn't interested in.
