Hey Kes, can I resign from the Oddworld Big Brother? I really wish I could participate, but I will be very busy with other things. I hope you understand.


-Mac

okay Mac, if you can't participate, thats cool.
I understand perfectly how busy people can get, as I'm currently doing my end of year exams.

Also, Silversnow has brought to my attention a question about how the Dairy room should work. To use the diary room, reply to the topic as normal, but put 'Dairy room' in the subject line. Then type out your conversation with Big Brother. Remember, if someone's character talks about you in the Dairy room, or reveals anyother secrets, you are not allowed to act apon this knowledge. The Dairy room is a private exchange between the character and the readers of the topic, and the other characters are not supposed to know what is going on in that room.
Does that make sense?

*Walks into house and drops cloth sac off shoulder onto floor.*
"Anyone here? I want a bed in the first bedroom!"
*Picks sac back up, and runs down into the bedroom*

*set's slig sleeping bag up in lounge room* *put's locker up and get's pant's* okay i'm kool

*Jumps on Bed and pulls out Xbox from sac*
"I wonder where i can find a TV to plug this in?"
*Pulls out bag of tea*
"I'm gonna make some tea, I'll head down to the kitchen."

Oh... I see. Easy :D

*walks into the second bedroom*
Hmm...
*looks around*
All empty...
*grins evilly and takes the bed as far away from the door as I can*
Aaaahhhh... I'm in heaven... Ow! Stupid pillow...

*Grabs a pot of water and sets it on the burner.
Looks around and peers into lounge room"
"AGGGGHHH a slig!!"
*Hides behind table*

*stare's at Tad*

Have'nt you ever seen a slig before buster..
*take's out some coffie* *sip* mmmmm cafine...

*Slowly stands up from behind table .
"Sorry, I've had some bad run-in's with sligs before, us mudokons dont have a whole lot of social skills, being slaves and all."
*Walks over to him and extends hand out for a handshake.
"Hi, I'm Tad. Who are you?"

*Long pause*
*Pulls hand back and walks back into kitchen. Pours boiling water into a cup. Dips teabag in cup.*

"I don't suppose you like tea?"

Heh
 

This is Big Brother.....
 

*A voice echoes out of.....well, it seems to come from everywhere.*
This is Big Brother.
You have all had a week in order to settle into your new abode. This is now your first task.
Outside, you will see a Meep pen, and a large amount of Meep.(Check your map if you want.) They need to be penned and looked after, but they are very aggressive, from being used as Vykker experiments.
You must herd all the Meep, but I will warn you, they will attack if provoked.
Have fun!!

BTW, you must also spend at least one session per week (that means a post per week) in the Diary room. See my post above, if you don't know how to do this. This is a mandatory post per week.

*Walks over to door and looks outside*
"That is a large amount of meep. How are we going to do this?"

I have no idea.*lightbulb comes on*Wait!I know!*runs off to get a vykker poster*

*Puzzled expression, turns to others in the room*
"Do you guys know what he's up to?"

*wakes up and walks down to the rest of the crowd*
Yo my dudes!
*long silence*
Uhm... So... What did you do in the kitchen? That was a kinda freaky voice, ya know.

*looks at new arrival in the kitchen*
"You missed quite a bit didnt you?"

Don't look at me
 

*scratches head* Meeps...look...scaryyyyy. *gets guitar out*Do you think a song will lighten them up??

*meeps growl*

Maybe not...This is not going to be easy as pie. :fuzconf:
I'll think about this for a bit.....*obeserves the meeps carefully*
Mmmm... :fuzcool:

Okay got the poster!*holds up in front of them just in front of the pen*Sic 'em!*they attack and run into the pen**closes door*GOTCH YA!

Again Im not entirely sure where this belongs, its seems to be interactive, but more of an RPG, Ill keep it here for the time being but Ill check back in tommorrow on the subject. EDIT: It will stay here, it is an interactive story type thing. But please read the following.

And I would also like to remind people of having more "In Depth" posts, after this if I see the short posts again, I will reporting those individuals, Im not trying to be mean here, Im trying to do this for the better of FC, it has been quite polluted lately, and if this continues, how am I going to be able to make things a lot more user friendly, and fun, with new features. Please just follow my guidelines and help this story develop, I would hate to have to take serious action against you guys but if the pollution doesnt stop I will have no choice. Please follow these guidelines and have fun, for those who that are doing fine and doing what there supposed to keep up the good work, for those who arent please just meet my expectations. Thanks again.


-your fellow member and Mod, Al the Vykker

*rubs feet against floor*
Well, yeah... I've been kinda sleeping, ya know? I loove these beds...
*grins and looks out of window*
Wow... That dude with the piece of paper sure knows how to handle those... things.
*opens window*
*yells* Hey! Good job! *does thumbs up*

To Al: Eh... How long must the posts be then?

As I have said before its not always the length of the posts Im looking for here, its the content and development that the posts contribute to a story or interactive thingy, like this that I am really looking for it to be in depth and connect to what the other peopple are posting. I will be updating my simple reminder topic soon, with my updated guidlines so everyone knows what is expected for certain topics in FC. Hope that clears that up.

I have yet to see anyone using the diary room either. I would like to see some more diary entries and some interaction with other characters. So far, it could be taken that each of you are totally obvilious to each other, which isn't really working. :)
So, how about we get people to interact more, that way it might be more interesting for you guys.
