Another Doctor in Town Discussion

[Starflower]

Welcome to the Another Doctor in Town RPG. You may join in if you like but be sure to read the back up story on it first:

lotrscrapbook.bookloaf.net/stories/serial/dw/index.html

These are the characters in Doctor Who. You may take any that are marked "open" or not marked at all. "open" characters are characters that are in the roleplay but are being dropped. They will be played by their orignal owner until someone else picks them up. Not all characters need to be played so don't feel like you need to fill all the places. Even if a character was not with another characters they may both be there if they were in the same era, time being messed up and all that. (Zoe and Victoria for example) You may have no more than two Doctors and one Master.

Can I request one of the open Doctors? Either Eight or Nine (not both please!) surprise me.

[Starflower]

Eight is granted. =)

[primsong]

Just so it isn't too confusing to those who might follow the link - yes, that is a Lord of the Rings site, but only because it happens to be the archive I run...not because we're doing a crossover or anything. Popping it into a template there was simply the lazy way of getting it all cleaned up and online somewhere.

[gondorgirl]

I'm bad, now that I've cleared out the characters I just kind of took because we needed them I might considering taking Harry just because Harry was awesome...



but I'm just considering

Since you don't seem to have much of a preference, would you mind if I took Eight instead? I'm happy to pick someone else but if as you're just as content to play Nine, I'd rather like to be Eight.

I've been listening to more audios recently and have his voice stuck in my head at the moment.

[clocketpatch]

Sure thing! I'm more of a nine girl myself anyway.

hmmm... now I just have to read through all of the backstory...

[Starflower]

Prim went through and moved stuff around so it was easier to read. =) The stuff with Ten isn't very good at the begining because... well we didn't have a very good Ten. But they shortly left and I picked up Ten and Rose.

[Stripes]

Is the RPG going on on another message board all together?

[clocketpatch]

I am confused at how this is working also... ?

[Stripes]

because if the RPG is going to be on another site, why don't you all work out the details there? If it is going to be on this board then ok, what ever, work it out here.

[clocketpatch]

I think the backstory is being hosted elsewhere to avoid spamming the 50 most recent posts, because from what I've looked at it's quite long

[primsong]

No, it'll be here - that's not an interactive forum site, just an archive.

I just archived everything from before so it wouldn't be this HUGE post thing here...Didn't want to overwhelm. We can go ahead and pick up soon, and again I am very grateful as it would have otherwise been rather abruptly dead.

I'll bring over the last bit of action and we can go from there.

Yeah! I'm excited to begin (though, it's going to take me awhile to play catch-up with the backstory)

[Starflower]

Hopefully One will get more into the story now. It's hard when I'm playing near all of the team. =) Susan is easy, One is easy, but Ian was a bit hard. So thankyou, Clocket for taking Ian and Barbara.

[Stripes]

I think Clocket you should make an whole new secation for the RPG but just have it password lock or something so it won't take up 50 posts thing. That way they can post back story etc. I know people really don't like the password and I can agree with topic boards about the next doctor not being password lock. However if this is going to be alot of posts I rather not want to shift through them to read other boards. Password lock boards isn't so bad. You can see if someone has updated one the side.

[Starflower]

I thought you couldn't see if there was an update unless you had already put in the password. Anyway you can put it under password lock if you really don't want that...

[gondorgirl]

Yeah from what I've seen of locked forums you can see when the last person posted you just can't see the thread title, not that we would have to

[Starflower]

Alright. =) Sounds good.

[IMForeman]

I think we should at least try it out here. If it gets overcrowded, the topic can always be moved into a password locked forum.

Possibly a silly question, but would contents of a forum that was locked for members only (you can do that, right?) also show up in the 50 most recent posts?
