Previous Clubs

I made friends with Laura of Arolos many years ago (I don't remember how now, probably Pern Alliance related! *G*). Most of the BoD of Arolos that I know I've met through her! We have great adventures involving attempting to order cakes for delivery across the Atlantic Ocean. :D

And yes, the real battle between Arolos and Triad has nothing to do with the world... we're fighting over who gets to harvest Emma's organs for the good of the club. She has to sleep with one eye open, that poor girl...

Now where's the chainsaw icon...

:kettensaege:

THIS WILL ONLY HURT A LOT, EMMA! :D

I admit that I am at a disadvantage, as so many of them already live on the other side of the pond. I may have to start recruiting some Ninja-Surgeons from our European members...

** Note to self: Never let Bree introduce you to Laura... Stay away from Arlos... **

Patrick · March 01, 2007, 03:09:33 AM

Glad I decided NOT to join Arolos...

Laura convinced me to subscribe to Arolos one weekend to see what it was like.
Unfortunately, it was a Hatching weekend.
:fucyc:
In one weekend I received more emails than in a year's worth of full-post.
I couldn't cope.
Couldn't cope.
I'm breaking into a cold sweat just thinking about it.

I'm in Cibryen Weyr, which is the only round-robin that I've tried that's kept me for more than two weeks. Partly because I love the canon (come on, they blew up Igen Weyr. that's awesome.), partly 'cause I like being a little bit looser sometimes in my canon than here (since I do like female blueriders), partly because the people are awesome. Cibby's not small, maybe 20 active people and anywhere from 0 to 40 posts a day- it can get busyyyyy. *sob* And the hardest storyline I've ever had to write I'm currently writing there.

Honestly, I think it's not as hard to adapt as you think. I find that using Gmail helps because USUALLY the RR threads get chunked into one Gmail convo which makes your life so much easier. When I tried a Yahoo account I got lost but Gmail can really help you comprehend round-robin.

I'm NOT touching Dark Fort or Arolos, though. Too big. *sob*

Quote from: "emma"Dark Fort certainly allows both types of posting. Sometimes round robin can be fun, if it works right, other times it can go off at wierd tangents.

I think the control freak in me would find that ... difficult. I like being able to stop. discuss, and change the direction of a copost, or abandon it if it's not working. Round-robin always seemed like publishing before I'd even finished thinking about it!

Patrick · March 01, 2007, 12:08:48 PM

My point exactly Jane. I'm in ONE Round Robin style group and its okay, but my posts are ungodly short because I can't think that fast on my feet. Then of course you get the time when someone can't post and EVERYTHING stops short.

Quote from: "Bree"I don't think I'm capable of writing happy relationships, and the character's partners very rarely have anything to do with it. :(

Writers beware! Getting your characters involved with mine is asking for pain and suffering!

I can't help it. I've got a problem!

You still have Nalilie around somewhere????

I'm sure I know where T'shen is... ;)

Jane · March 04, 2007, 09:23:22 PM

And thank you for a reply in this post that I started. Without your help (and my stopping on my way past to welcome you in your own thread) I wouldn't have earned enough marks for:

Forever Reqs Free Level 4 Persona at a Hold/Hall.
Rank limits do not apply.

Thank you! I shall now run off and spend my marks!

Kaysea · March 04, 2007, 09:34:21 PM

You're welcome.... I htink. I'm still not the full quid on what goes on around here.... :-

Look at how many marks I have and I'm still not sure what to save for or why.

Yes, I know, there's a list. I still haven't decided on anything that I want.

I can't understand how I amassed so many, so quickly.

It's easiest to e-mail me (mailto:ajkraier@gmail.com">ajkraier@gmail.com), since my AIM time is limited at the moment -- 5 subjects this term and all of them have horrific, bleeping-ly boring textbooks from which we do tons of reading. ~_~
