As a backup mod, I can say you guys are in for a real treat. Galz has a great game in store

Thank you for auto inning me. I would have been pissed if this launched without me.

Are you guys noir fans? I just recently finished reading the Maltese Falcon and now I think I'll be seeking out more Dashiel Hammett. It was really good!

I think I'm more into parodies of noir than noir itself, for which it's hard to beat Problem Sleuth. (Now this is not a place to get into a pro- and anti- Homestuck debate, please. But I did love the older Hussie stuff.)

I once wrote a noir parody for a 24-hour play festival.

Voltgloss · « **Reply #29 on:** December 10, 2012, 10:46:40 am »

For noir parody, I strongly recommend "The Cheap Detective." I strongly recommend it anyway, in fact.

Kai Winn is in that movie apparently. Yeah, I'll check it out.

I read this article on Noir this morning and was deeply annoyed it made no mention of Max Payne, which is one of my favorite settings, noir or not.

I love that that has become the new face for Frisk, because somehow if he were a Cat, I would picture him looking JUST like that.

I totally forgot about this game. We could probably start it now ...?

Jimmmmm · « **Reply #36 on:** January 02, 2013, 09:57:36 am »

Need a replacement for Frisk.

It's after Volt's actually, which is why I hadn't yet seeked a replacement. At the time I posted sign-ups, it was unclear if I would jump him in the queue.

Voltgloss · « **Reply #38 on:** January 02, 2013, 11:02:16 am »

I am fine with Galz jumping the queue. His game is fully made where mine isn't yet (though I hope to finish this week), AND he has fewer player slots left open (I still need 2 or 3 players, where Galz only needs 1 to sub in for Frisk). I think it makes more sense for his to launch first, given the circumstances.

For numbering consistency, I would suggest that Galz's game shift to being called RMM-V, while I'll drop down to RMM-VI.

Galzria · « **Reply #39 on:** January 02, 2013, 11:09:08 am »

Updated Title and first post. I'll be able to finish writing the PM's today, so if we fill, I can launch by tomorrow morning.

Dsell · « **Reply #40 on:** January 02, 2013, 12:56:45 pm »

Woah forgot about this. XD

I knew I had a lot of games coming up.

Insomniac · « **Reply #41 on:** January 02, 2013, 12:58:39 pm »

Super excited about the Noir theme.

Galzria · « **Reply #42 on:** January 02, 2013, 08:27:28 pm »

8 PM's written, 5 left to go! Need 1 more to fill up, and I'll send them out tonight/early tomorrow morning!

mcmcsalot · « **Reply #43 on:** January 04, 2013, 03:05:16 pm »

just realized ZMX and MXX wont start for awhile, I can do two games at once

/in

Galzria · « **Reply #44 on:** January 04, 2013, 03:21:44 pm »

Awesome! I'll be writing out the last 4 PM's in just a little bit, and then I'll send them out tonight! I'll probably start the game sooner rather than later (tonight if everybody is ready - tomorrow morning if there's a delay) and tack on an extra two days for the first deadline since I don't want deadlines to end on the Weekends. (Rule of thumb: on a 1-week deadline, I will extend to Monday evening anytime a deadline would normally fall between Friday evening and Sunday evening).

As this thread does NOT contain a whole lot of unnecessary pre-game banter, and I DO like everything to be self contained, I will NOT be following the trend of starting a new thread for the game. The opening post will contain up-to-date Postcounts for all active players, that can be subtracted in the future for anybody wishing to do future post-counts.

/tag to follow and can be considered for a potential replacement if a need arises.

Kinda seems like this and DS9 will be in day 1 at exactly the same time, with many of the same players. can we live with that? (I'm not saying we can't, but I know it's been a concern in the past)

We'll find out!

Really though, they're very different games, and since at the very least I'm modding here, and you're modding there, that's two people who are only playing one game!

What're your deadlines? If they're 2 weeks, then we should be fine, since at worst, this game will hit deadline and night, which will increase flow to your game. If your deadlines are 1-week, then I'll just extend my first one to 2 weeks so that we get that same off-set.

2 weeks, with 48 hour night phases. Slow for my tastes as a mod, but I think better for the players.
