OOC thread for Returning to the stage

Sarzonia
17-10-2008, 16:03
Not that I think the RP (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=568813) necessarily needs a OOC thread, but if you have any OOC questions about how the RP is going or want to address issues, please do so here. Thank you.

One thing I would like to point out is that I just came back from the doctor's office yesterday and got a mostly clean bill of health. (My main issue at the moment is high blood glucose readings.) I picked the date of 1 December 2007 and time of 4:32 p.m. because of the ironies involved. 1 December 2006 was the day I found out all my cancer markers were normal. The time I found out was 4:32 p.m.

Good to hear your doing well. I have been enjoying your thread thus far, great work.

Thanks so much for the vote of approval and for your well wishes.

It's definitely good to be back...

Oh, Romandeos, do you want to do a joint post for the presidential debate?

If so, please let me know when you're available. Thanks.
Romandeos

I believe a joint post would be a good idea. Do you want to use MSN or what? My AIM had to be uninstalled. Corrupted.

Good to know you're doing well, too. Seriously.

MSN sounds good. Sorry to hear about AIM, but there is www.aimexpress.com, which would allow you to access AIM through a Web browser.

I'm very glad to receive the good news I did yesterday. Makes life a lot more enjoyable.

I appreciate the advice. By the by, my MSN is Shaneedgington251@hotmail.com, like always. My screen name is currently "Xavier the Mad."

18-10-2008, 18:45
BTW, Sarzonia, do you want to actually write the debate out as one long, fully joint post, or go through it in stages? Both methods are fine by me.
Sarzonia
18-10-2008, 18:55
Actually, scratch that. I'd like to go in stages.
Romandeos

Right. I'll set to work on a fresh post, then.

Excellent reply on Tyler's part, Sarzonia. The next question's yours, by the way.
Sarzonia
20-10-2008, 19:56
Thanks. I wasn't sure how that would go over.

I've posted with my moderator's brief bio and her question to Haffner.

Now you get to ask Delgado a question.
Sarzonia

For reference, there's a Wiki article (http://nswiki.net/index.php?title=Sarzonian_Great_Isolation) on the Great Isolation, as I'm calling that nearly one RL year I've been away from NS.

Thanks to Pacitalia for writing it ... and for his help editing the Grant Haffner (http://nswiki.net/index.php?title=Grant_Haffner) entry!

Great post, Pacitalia.

One minor point, though: Sarzonia's presidential elections are every six years. Other than that, brilliantly-written treatise.
Romandeos
26-10-2008, 15:13
Interesting. I finally got 'round to writing my next post, BTW. 'Twill be posted in the next few minutes. It's very short, but I'll hopefullly make up for that with the next one.
Romandeos
26-10-2008, 16:06
By the way, Sarzonia, if you have any more questions you would specifically like to have my moderator ask I am usually on MSN around this time. I still need to find out just what happened with my AIM so I can fix that.

In addition, Pacitalia, I must agree with Sarzonia. That was a great piece you wrote.

Right, though I was unsure simply because it's your first elections cycle. :p

Thanks for the props, guys.

Lamoni, you can go ahead and RP as if you've gotten approval to send an observer.

I might RP having one of my people observe your observer, though. ;)
Pacitalia
29-10-2008, 00:43
OOC: Just for clarification, The Economist is published in glossy magazine format, but it refers to itself as a "newspaper". I realised that, after reading Lamoni's post, it might have been confusing.

But basically my hope is that The Economist is seen as somewhat of a newsmagazine of record in Atlantian Oceania. That's why I save it for the more poignant, eloquent and lengthy news pieces.
Sarzonia
29-10-2008, 00:56
Even during the nadir of Paci-Sarzonian relations, The Economist definitely wielded the most influence of any non-Sarzonian media outlet within Sarzonia proper. Prae's The Parliamentarian was not far behind, but The Economist wore the crown.

Of course, Paci's RP of it made me pick up the RL version on a couple of occasions. ;)

If there are any questions those of you involved with (or following) the RP think we should ask the candidates, feel free to post them here or send me a message on Jolt. Or once the game's technical problems are fixed, you can TG me.

Thanks.

I was wondering just what might be going on with NS.

I'm also open to telegrams, PMs and so forth if you are unable to contact Sarzonia. I'll just send 'em on to him.
Sarzonia

Hey Romandeos,

Could you post your next question when you get a chance?

I've saved the four questions we talked about over on MSN, so if you need any of them, I can supply them to you.

I'm not trying to be a pest, but I'd like to try to finish the debate before my planned RP of the election itself.
Romandeos
03-11-2008, 00:24
It (my post) will be up within thirty minutes of this one, but it will be very short.
Sarzonia
05-11-2008, 06:47
I suppose now is the time for statements from governments, etc.

Obviously, if you still want to finish the debate Romandeos, we can do that.

I'll post the inauguration most likely on this thread on 15th December.

I'll see about writing a question, sure. If you want to cut it at some point, let me know.

Say, Tim, could you respond to Tyler's invitation (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=14195135&postcount=54) to the Inaugural Gala? I know your "friend" Haff sent it, but Tyler really would like to see you there. ;)

glad to see you back, Sarzonia!

Sorry I'm way late with the reply, but it's good to be back.

15-11-2008, 09:13
My bad, I intended to and then forgot. I shall get on it now.
Sarzonia
24-11-2008, 15:51
If anyone else wants to come to the Inaugural Gala, send me a TG.

If my TG box is full (not sure if they still do get full or not), feel free to post on this thread.

Thanks.
Sarzonia

Quick question: Inaugural Gala/inauguration in THIS thread or create a new one?

I'll take everyone's thoughts into consideration.

Perhaps some condemnation from the Imperivm basically dismissing Tyler as the "same old shit" Sarzo?

The inaugural gala/inauguration ceremonies will take place in this thread.

If anyone who wants their leaders to take part, please TG me.

I know confusing you is the utmost fun, but I meant the IC thread.

That's where the inaugural ball and the inauguration are taking place.

I just wanted to get Tyler inaugurated on the Inauguration Day itself and not postpone it with a RSTF attack. :p

Nice post, Paci, but the Sarzonian anthem is actually "Freedom." "Destiny Rules" basically is for Sarzonia what "Hail To The Chief" is for the president of the RL United States. :p

Fixed, and the second post is up!

I don't feel like logging out of my FT puppet and logging back into Sarzonia at the moment, so I'll say sure, go ahead.

I'm Sarzonia and I approve this message, lol.

Hey Tim,

Do you want to do the bit about Haffner's and Lewis's visit to Timiocato in Returning to the stage or do you want to create a new RP for that?

If we do create a new RP, I think it ought to be closed. What say you?
Pacitalia

We should probably create a new one to keep things organised. I would also agree it should be closed, but with limited third-party perspective (such as allowing other players to comment ICly with news posts, but nothing more).
Sarzonia
08-01-2009, 00:41
I'll go along with your suggestions. Perhaps third parties can ask either of us if they can comment? I'd still rather not have just anyone being able to post...

And, do you want to start the thread or should I?
