Drop

Yeah, I need to give up the ghost.

My muse for this game has been flagging, and after dealing with RL and school and stuff, I realize that I don't have time to try to revive interest if it isn't there. I'm going to drop for now in hopes that my muse might come back, and if it does, I'll be back on this game like white on rice.

That being said, if any of you guys see me in a meme, go right on ahead and tag me. Tag me with game canon, meme canon, whatever--I don't think I've had a single thread I didn't like here, and if you still want to finish a thread we had going on, just link me. :) Chances are I want to finish it too but feel too embarrassed to tag after so long.

See you on the flip side, folks. Seshat/Reid out.

!mod post

MOD ANNOUNCEMENT!

First things first, I am terribly sorry for dropping off the radar for a while there. School and life sort decided to sneak up on me, leaving less time for modly duties. I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things now, though so if there are any threads with my NPCs that you'd like to continue, please let me know! Otherwise, PM this journal and we can handwave the rest of the thread.

We also need to decide what we'd like to do with the Surface log. It's come to a stand-still and a few people have dropped the game that were involved in the log. If you guys would like to continue tagging, please say so! We can also discuss it and handwave it as well.

But most importantly, at the end of this month, I will be doing an Activity Check. I was lax about it for August because I hoped things could keep going without being strict. Activity requirements for the month are one log with at least 12 replies or two logs with comments that add up to 12. Logs with NPCs DO count towards your activity!

This Saturday, I will also be posting a Player Plot Post so you all can discuss potential CR with each other hopefully make it super easy to get AC!

And last thing, a reminder. If you're not comfortable with ALL PROSE, ALL THE TIME, you CAN use action brackets for your tags if you prefer!

Drop :(

I'm really upset to do this, but I'm going to have to drop striatum.So, JJ will be going home. It's just not working out for me the way I hoped, and as much as I've tried, I just haven't been able to muster the desire to post.

I'm really sorry, and I hope everyone else has lots of fun here.

Double Drop

Bluh, I hate to do this so soon off hiatus, but here it goes.

Aubrey (Natasha's mun) and I have talked about it, and have come to the decision that Striatum is not going to work out for us. We wish you all the best of luck and hope the game prospers and is amazingly awesome for everyone involved!

This affects Clint Barton and Natasha Romanoff (

tendnottoweep).

Tomorrow I start classes again! Which means Tues, Thurs-Sat I have classes (plus an online one!) Hooray! I'm also working full time. So you may see my tags slowing down. It shouldn't impact me majorly, but I do have a math class I must desperately pass this semester, soooooooo... who can say.

Anyway, still up for plotting and play, just-- slower than normal.

A WILD ARCHER RETURNS!

aka - MAT IS BACK FROM HIATUS! :D Y'all missed me, be honest. Or you would if I'd... had a chance to tag anybody yet. BUT! That will be changing since, y'know. BACK.

WOO!

[Looks nervously around the room.]

Uh...hi! I'm Bing, and for as long as you'll have me I'll be playing Michaelangelo.
'Sup?

Anyway...this Mike is from about the same canon point as his bigger brother Raph. Post "City at War" of Mirage's B&W Volume 1 series.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the early comics, which I'm assuming is most of you, this means that the blood feud between the Foot and the Turtles is now over, and Mike is ready to start the next phase of his life: as the live-in nanny to April and Casey's adopted daughter Shadow. Trading in his nunchucks for a diaper bag, or at least that was the plan before the Bridge brought him here.

I can be reached via Plurk at agoodshinkickin, and on AIM at agoodshinkickin, and via gmail at...you probably guessed it: agoodshinkickin.

Really looking forward to the creeptastic nature of this game, so seriously hit me up for all manner of plot and ridiculousness.

Hi there, everyone!

This is some new blood, Lettie, bringing in Mystique from X-Men: First Class. She's a shapeshifter who also has the added benefit of delayed cellular ageing! I'm plucking her from the end of the film where she's decided that she is going to leave the side of her adoptive brother, Charles Xavier, and join Erik Lehnsherr in creating a group of mutants that's probably going to be bent on destroying humans, because people who don't accept you suck.

I can be reached on plurk @osteological or on AIM @Lettie347, and I'm always open for plots and what have you! Definitely don't be scared to hit me up.

intro

+1 outdated nation

Midnight introduction is GO!

Or more bluntly said: Hi. I'm Zet. And I'm your fresh slab of meat for today, bringing you... Germany. From that mindnumbing series about humanized countries, yes. He's picked directly from 1945 and the very day that Germany officially surrenders. So he's fresh from the war he himself started and lost big times. But it's not like he would have smiled more if I went with any other year, so... I'm pretty sure he'll be okay. Or at least as okay as he can possibly be.

As for means of contact... I'm easily reachable via plurk as

skoegul ~ Feel free to add me, really. So much plotting happens there! Another quick way to reach me is to simply send a PM to this account. I get all the notifs to my inbox, two cellphones and an iPad I never use, so making all these alarms ring is a very sure way to grab my attention. Lastly: AIM. daszeluvieh would be me. But I use that much less nowadays even if it's constantly logged in ['cause I rarely turn off my pc...]

And I guess that's pretty much it. Looking forward to playing with you all, but for now... I'm off to bed. Because by now it's past midnight and it's been a long day.

A song!

So, I am a dork, right? A big dork. A dork that, will on rare occasion act on such impulses as to write filk.

So I did.

This is for Georgia, Shaun, Spencer, Brenda and everyone else who've lost their memories after coming through.

hiatus

On behalf of Morgan

So, Morgan's computer gave out recently and they aren't sure when they're going to be back. They're hoping for the end of the month or so but they aren't positive. Therefore, this is a hiatus post on their behalf.

This affects Shaun Mason.

A little late to the party, but hello!

How's everyone doing tonight? My name's Kaiya and I'll be bringing in Mr. Wade Wilson, aka Deadpool, and adding his own fun flavor of crazy to the mix. Don't worry-- stabbing is a sign of affection for him. I think.

If anyone wants to get ahold of me outside of the game, I can be reached at kaiyasan@hotmail.com on AIM. Don't worry, I don't bite-- but I will probably nerd all over you if we've got something in common. Be prepared for a lot of dorking out over Deadpool. And Kingdom Hearts. And classic SNES RPGs. Did I mention I'm a rabid gamer?

Can't wait to play with you all! I hope I do the game proud. X3

Hiatus

sooooooo yeah, I know it's so sooooon, and just in time for the first modplot, wtg Mat, but I need to put Clint here on hiatus for a week or two while I try to beat RL into submission. With Clint on my side, it should be pretty easy, eh? ;)

Our first modplot/event! Hooray!

If you've been stalking that NPC log Brynn and I have been working on, you probably have a bit of an idea what's going to happen. We're going up to the surface for supplies! The log for this plot will be posted on Thursday, August 9th. If your character hasn't wandered up above ground yet, this will be a great chance to get them up there to see all the crazy destruction, WOO! As long as your character is still hanging out with the group in the tunnels, they can come along!

This will also be the first time we'll be using that fancy schmancy Jossing Mechanism thing, double WOO! No characters will be dying this time, but we're looking for 3-5 people willing to subject their characters to our modly whims. These are the ways your character could possibly get Jossed this time:

1. Mild injury, such as a cut that may require a few stitches, a sprain or anything else that isn't particularly serious.

2. Severe injury, such as a gun shot wound or anything else that could potentially be life threatening.

3. Imprinted. Your character gets hit with one of the signals and now they've either switched bodies with someone else in the city or they've been wiped completely clean of all memories to the point where there's basically nothing left in their coconut.

4. Nothing! It's perfectly possible that if you sign up, your character will emerge from this unharmed!

We'll roll for everyone's outcomes either on August 7th or when sign ups cap out at 5 characters. When we roll, if your character ends up being one of the lucky ones that won't be harmed, we'll let you know right away so if you'd like to plot for them to get injured anyway, you may. If your character is going to get jossed, we'll let you know shortly before it happens in the thread. You'll have the choice of how they actually get injured.

That should be it! Any questions/comments/concerns, let me know!

Another newbie greeting.

Hello everyone! I'll be bringing you Shaun Mason from Mira Grant's Newsflesh books. He pokes zombies with sticks on camera for a living, or at least did at home, and is going to be losing most of his memories.

As for me, I'm Morgan and I'm terribly excited to be joining you all. If you want to get in touch with me out of the game, I'm letmebeasong on Plurk, and linesoflearning on AIM.

GREETINGS EVERYONE. I am Cat – or Jesscat, depending, and I’m bringing you Kara Thrace from Battlestar Galactica. She’s a tough, rugged, drinking, smoking viper pilot that’s going to be pretty surly upon arrival. She’s probably going to rattle some heads around SORRY ABOUT THAT IN ADVANCE. She's also going to have most of her memories still so expect some war stories (such an old man).

Anyway, plurk is travelistaa if you want to add me. I'm nerdy and flail a lot about things im excited about.

Excited to be playing here!

Why hullo!

*waves enthusiastically* Hi everyone! I'm Charley and I am bringing in this nice lady here, Georgia Mason.

She's going to be half out of it and partially lose her memories as well as trying to recover from a nasty virus but she'll get on her feet soon enough.

As for me, I was lured here by7 Aubrey and Mat, whose house I am currently staying in. So you can blame them for this. I'm twenty one, usually live in Florida, can be located at

spareusadream and am livelifeinflame on AIM.

I'm on....a lot really. If I'm not sleeping, I probably have a computer in front of me, so feel free to poke at any time, I'm fairly friendly, if not a bit awkward and enjoy meeting people.

Yet another newbie

Hey there, I'm Mat, and I'm bringing you this master assassin/former circus performer/cornball Romeo with delusions of adequacy. Or, in other words - Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Blame Aubrey, I couldn't pass up a chance to play off her Tasha.

As far as I go, I'm 26, I sell porn and dildos for a living (no lie), and i live in central new york with two dogs, two cats, and one wife. I'm pretty nocturnal, so I am 95% of the time DEAD TO THE WORLD before 11:30am at the earliest. Just FYI. Um... yes, I'm a very strange person, but such is life! You can find me on plurk at

shaunmatthew or on AIM as wakingsavior, and I like new friends so don't be afraid to drop me a line! If I take forever answering AIM, I either didn't see it blink, am at work helping customers, or am fullscreen in some game and forgot to go on away. ;)

SMOOCHIES!

Hello Striatum!

I'm Zippy and I have brought along an alternate universe Brenda DelVecchio from the DC Comic series Blue Beetle. She is a super heroine back home with sentient alien technology living inside her body. She'll be memory-less for the most part on arrival, but she's fairly friendly and will start to come back to herself soon. Please be prepared for sass.

If anyone wants a hold of me outside game I am on AIM @ calamityzippy and my plurk is

supermagpie. :3

I am so excited to pop into a prose game on the ground floor! Can't wait to play with you guys!

New arrival, almost on time...

Hello, Striatum! I'm Aubrey, and I am so so thrilled to find such an awesome prose game when it's still shiny and brand new! I am so excited to jump in and play with all of you, which I will be doing right now (by which I mean as soon as I finish this post). I'm on plurk as

mortalcity, and you are all welcome to add me over there!

I am bringing in Natasha Romanoff, superspy and master assassin from the Marvel movies (specifically Iron Man 2 and Avengers). She'll have all of her memories more or less intact, and will be less than thrilled to be here, so... I apologize if she gives a few people concussions immediately after arrival. I promise she won't do any irreparable damage...
