But there is a 6 am extension for the saturdays

that were delayed by LPF's downtown

Think you meant downTIME Sarah, but it's all good, we know what you meant... probably

 

As for the guideline, just incase anyone's confused:

 

You CAN post twice today IF YOU WANT because of the downtime. You only have until 6am AEST (that's roughly 3 hours from this post now) to get your SATURDAY post in before the day technically changes and it becomes SUNDAY.

 

As Sarah said there is no extension for Sunday, the cut-off point is still midnight tonight.

 

If you feel that way inclined to post Sunday NOW please hold off posting until after 6am (or 3 hours from now) that way we get all of Saturday out of the way first, make sense? Just so that it flows better for the readers, that we don't read a saturday, a sunday, and then more saturday posts before it's all sunday, got the picture?

 

You CAN post Saturday NOW.

Please DO NOT post Sunday for another 3 hours.

 

Thank you. And apologies for the mix up, blame the down time >:o

[Ravynlee]

Thanks

I thought I'd put a lil melodramtic into my story so its not all that "omg everything is so nice and sweet and just like W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L-L

but imo real life ain't like that too so I didnt want my story to be like that [/color]

I think it's awesome. It works! It tempers the romance with a hint of drama rather than burdening it the other way around (like me ). If we all did that the story would read like a depressing place to live indeed! But like I said, the romance is sweet, it's not sickening or over-the-top just in-your-face too much, it's right, and sincere. It makes me all "aww". And then the dramatist in me loves the dark part. I love the darkness haha

 

And yes eagerly await future revelations when Jos and Braddles get back from their impromptu holiday

No, 360's are great. Just you don't know how to use them. I haven't had any problems, only when I first got it this christmas, but that was because of 10's of thousands of people joining Xbox Live at one time. Maybe the PS3 hasn't had that since on christmas they had about 41 new people join

 

 

you need some ice with that burn, Sony?

 

Then explain to me why while kicking Oregon's ass in hockey..I think I was NY state, my wireless kept dropping out and then because of that my game kept on being paused and it wouldn't reconnect for ages? I prefer the old XBOX controls.

SARAH, knock it off, please. Spam elsewhere about this, seriously.

 

Look 4 posts down or so from yours and see what I mean.

This isn't the Xbox lover's thread. Go to the Xbox lover's thread please or make one. Keep this thread ON TOPIC >:o

sowwie.....

 

 

grr downtime is annoying me and throwing me off course with this story >.< and im finding im writing more tourniquet than this story...man it is getting hard to juggle both stories...but I won't give up on either one!

damn i did it again, downtown - downtime...lol.

[Ravynlee]

sowwie.....

 

That's okay :friends: but again - spam about all things even remotely story related here, it's fine with me. But not when the posts have nothing at all in the slightest to do with thread topic. In the words of Peter from The Family Guy, "That really grinds my gears"

 

Now on topic: any updates today or did the downtime throw everyone out of routine a tad? 0_o

 

Edit, just refreshed and saw your comment. Oops. I'm having a blonde twit kind of day...

[woodyloveslinkin]

wanna refresh again in that case? I edited that post three times.

[Ravynlee]

and im finding im writing more tourniquet than this story...man it is getting hard to juggle both stories...but I won't give up on either one!

That's the part I didn't see

 

Yes I understand. Can't be easy. But damn I desperately don't want to see this place (The Park) go under -

It's a WEEK TODAY since it started!

:drinks: Yay! :party:

 

Having said that, does anyone have any suggestions on how to perhaps improve the story concept any?

Anyone want to argue for more time each post?

Any thing we haven't addressed?

Anything you want to see, get rid of, anything at all...??

[woodyloveslinkin]

Like I've been saying all along JUST HAVE FAITH AND YOU CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING

The green has got to stop!

NEVER!

VIVA LA GREEN BABY!

 

hahaha

 

Faith? You know I'm the suspicious / pessimistic type... want to see this go on for ages yet. Story I mean. But faith? We'll see... time will tell on that score

[DarknessLover]

Oh but I

Need some time off from that emotion

Time to pick my heart up off the floor

And when that love comes down

Without devotion

Well it takes a strong man baby

But I'm showing you the door

 

'Cause I gotta have faith...

 

 

 

[woodyloveslinkin]

First page list now updated.

[Ravynlee]

Fox and Azem, please post or move out.

 

If you wish Sarah or I will write you as moving out. Please respond to PMs.

 

In 2 days if you haven't replied we will automatically assume you don't want to participate and do as above. Sorry if it sounds harsh. Everyone else is still managing to post somewhat regularly. You've each posted once in a week. We know real life gets in the way and we all have lives away from LPF (hopefully). But if you don't want to participate anymore no hard feelings. Just withdraw please so we don't waste time trying to work your characters in our posts.

 

Thanks

 

And thanks Sarah. Will bookmark

:rofl:

George Michael isn't it?

[DarknessLover]

Yes, in fact, it is.

[Ravynlee]

And Limp Biskit did a remake which was flogged to death, remember?

 

And Sarah... have you started today at all? Wondering. Want to write. Want to know where you're taking it

[DarknessLover]

Limp Bizkit OWNED that crap song

[woodyloveslinkin]

BACK TO THE TOPIC DL!

 

I have, not posting it until later this afternoon.

[Ravynlee]

To prove I have too much time on my hands, this is what I did (while watching a movie) this afternoon;

Not saying anyone has to abide by it, by any extreme, you are responsible for your own place, but this is how I see mine in my head (not to scale of course, its general), so I thought this would be the place to share it (and a good excuse to play around with MS paint while I was at it)

 

I know. Weird, innit? Visuals always help... XD

 

[Peterdea]

Didn't post yesterday cuz I was busy ALL day. Oh well I'ma make up for it hopefully today!

 

EDIT: sis thats kind of what I had in mind for my joint lol. Not exactly though but very similar.

Now that's freaky... proof that great minds really DO think alike

 

And it's okay. Post when you can. I am being shifty and waiting to see what others do. I have started but not yet finished. That's how I'll try to incorporate others in, by seeing what they write

Looking forward to seeing what you do write, of course.

And if you can, don't forget, Dexter on TV tonight. You should watch it. It's probably like my fav new show already - you'd adore it.

[Peterdea]

im getting it on dvd so ill watch it then. I saw the first ep and i love it!

 

i had fun writing this one, it opened more doors for me and i got a great idea that will work out great for my character!!!!!

 

EDIT: had minor problems, fixed post

[Ravynlee]

Damn I should get the DVD too (when I get more financial, new job, ugh) but yes right up your alley I reckon. Mind you I love forensic shows, well, psychological ones, detective ones, First 48, that type thing. Shame they took that one off the air *sigh*

 

 

As for your post today - I would like to expand this idea of talking to you about women. If I'm the one you saw looking freaked out even better, if not, its only a matter of time haha

I say this, if you want, because it will give me a chance to give you some insight into the enemy (Vincent) and work towards this plan we talked about down the track. Would like my character to get to know yours a bit better, mind, she is a fragile soul who doesn't trust easy, so I am thinking with her inherant fascination for 'bad guys' she will most likely open up to you pretty well Platonically of course.

 

 

Want to? Don't have to, no pressure, if not can always hit this from another angle. Just saw an opening, that's all...

 

 

And you know for a sec there reading yours I was almost thinking the gang that beat your friend up was Mel's gang! I was like ... haha wow... dangerous place we live in!

But Celeste wasn't it? Hmm... have to wonder... how she knows Hugh? That's fantastic you're giving a static character (Hugh) a past in essence, or branching off him. See THAT is real imagination at work. Bravo brother! :ok:

 

 

You've got my mind working overtime now...

[DarknessLover]

on this note, DAMN MIKES GANG

 

*You'll see why soon*
