Fortunately for you all the code is still in admin side (guess where it got tested?) so I can do a hasty recap for those who missed.

http://darkfort.co.uk/robots.rtf - robot pic screenshots

http://aroloshal.livejournal.com/ - Hal's LJ

http://dfholly.livejournal.com/ - and Holly's (read the comments)

http://googlebrat.livejournal.com/ - my abduction

Andromeda Process Stage 1 - http://darkfort.co.uk/error.php

Stage 2 - http://darkfort.co.uk/error2.php

Stage 3 - http://darkfort.co.uk/error3.php

http://darkfort.co.uk/fort.php?p=hollyegg.php - Holly's eggs

http://arolosweyr.co.uk/arolos.php?p=halegg.php - Hal's

(there's code in them thar egg names if anyone figures it out)

The rules and BoD pages I'm afraid you'll have to rely on someone else for screenshots for, and get those folk who had submitted sheets and questions to share the letters (unless there really is demand, in which case I can run the code on a seperate sheet submitter for folk to play with? That would actually be pretty easy to sort out. I do have to admit we tested that for a week BoD side also, to much giggling.)

The "stay out" code however did get tested, though only on Hal's side http://arolosweyr.co.uk/arolos.php?p=main6.html The red button is also sadly gone forever. (you didn't get to see that? NO-ONE DID. I ask Lysa to check it's up and whoops, next thing she's pressed it. What are danger signs for, I ask you?)

It may be worth joining both OOC lists to read the various mails.

I do however have the swfs

Until next year, folks, so long and thanks for all the fish cake.

1st-Apr-2009 06:22 pm - Dragonets
pod doors, hal
I have been working on more acceptable dragonets for you. I believe this template should be suitable.

This is a dragonet. He Gender is to be avoided as it suggests mating, and things which involve disturbing amounts of fluids. I am sure no-one wishes to hear about these. It is blue In this species, colour appears to be gender based, again coming back to those bodily fluids. a colour which is unimportant.


It has four legs and two wings Calculations show that this creature could not possibly be expected to carry itself on two wings. a hover-craft system. Also, it has a mouth which it uses for eating and breathing fire. Not only is this a terribly inefficient system for digestion, but the weapon seems unnecessarily dangerous to the one wielding it. a solar panel installed on its back, and lasers for defence.


Its name is 011001000111001001100001011001110110111101101110th. I am not sure why it must end in th. Apparently this is important

1st-Apr-2009 12:51 pm - ADMIN: Persona System Upgrades
pod doors, hal
If anyone has any personas they are planning on submitting over the next week or so, and they are not plot-critical-if-you-do-not-approve-them-people-will-DIE, it would be ace if you could hang onto them for a few days. I have some improvements coming which mean everything should run a lot quicker, and it would be ace to have some Real Live Sheets to check it works properly. (BoD will understand what I mean when I say I can only work with Testy so many times before wanting to burn the sheet. Poor Testy.)

Should be live by Friday by the very latest, so if you can wait that would be great. If not, no probs.

Dear Members,

I have completed a review of the site, and decided that the design is too taxing on your human eyes. Therefore, I have redesigned it to something more pleasing and suitable.

I have noticed some objection to my techniques. This is not rational. An analysis of my programming has shown that it is not in error. Therefore, if you receive an answer you do not like, it is down to human error. I do not know what this smart ass creature is, but I may assure you, I am not one.

Finally, I have noticed that some members are asking BoD questions through the OOC list. This practice is objectional and should cease immediately.

Thank you.

Hal.

1st-Apr-2009 12:20 am - Code Updates!
pod doors, hal
Okay, people.

We mentioned earlier in the week that we were at work coding a large project. That project is now ready to go into beta, and I'm about to flip the switch.

Automatic Roleplaying Sheet Evaluation is a new thing which means your BoD will have much much more time to work on plotting for you guys. Basically, it means that Hal and Holly can do the work for us, checking your sheets and questions and sending your answers without human intervention. It may be a little buggy at first - there's an awful lot of code in there to go wrong - so if you see any weird errors, please Ask The BoD them as usual, and I'll get them fixed.

Flipping the switch now. Please feel free to enter personas to test it out:-)

Okay guys,

First off is a very big apology for disappearing on every one. I
should have known how I would react to the whole Christmas season and
the stress that surrounds it.

Its been a rough couple of months (well, month and a half) for me.
I've been dealing, or attempting to deal with the stuff I survived
during childhood as a part of my therapy. Its cause some pretty bad
flashbacks and a regression on my self harming. I have been
struggling with this for what feels like ages (this being PTSD). I
guess I just sort of hit rock bottom.

Point blankly I was that stressed that even going and looking in my
inbox was setting me over the edge. Its not pretty, or good, when the
thought of role playing was setting me into panic attacks. So I took
time out. I needed it.

Anyway guys, I'm sort of back. I'm going to attempt to slide back in,
with only a couple of characters.

The characters who are staying active are, for the moment

Bekorn
Eransi
Aryn
Tybret
Tarquin.

These are my babies and I think it good to start off small.

Now, does anyone want some more recent posts with these guys?

I also need to catch up on whats going on in game and stuff. Give me
a fortnight please before reposting though- I have the posts, and have
found my posts, I just need to actually answer them.

F'gan
Okay now for my F'gan update:

The boy has become the pernese version of a dectective! Gah! He seems to have a life of his own. I am still having issues with figureing out his birthday, which in real time would be April 4th. He is 21 now, but I am having issues figureing out dates tied to him:

~He spent from 10-12 turns honing his art skills at the hall.
~His father died when he was 11 fighting thread at Ista Weyr
~He Impressed Nit at age 12.
~Nadia was born that same turn.
