People still use messenger??? j/k Didn’t mean to drag that nick’ back into your life, Rye. ;) Dean’s profile is still alive, who’d have thought it? I’ve kept a website ticking over on role-playing all these years so I’ve never really been away from any of it. I’ve tended to save some things...

The player of Dean Wolfe . . . we'll I'll be. How've you been? You nick was Twink, right? I remember you. Don't think I had the opportunity of playing in-character with you though. Also vividly remember Matrix Shocke, had some good dealings with Mike, again mostly outside of the chatrooms.

Sounds promising, Katrina. Good luck with this venture. If you need a tester, and haven't found one yet, I'd be willing to have a go (another_virtuoso on Y!Pager)

Also remembering some of these names and taverns. I caught the mid-to-end tail of chat A&E/E&A in 1999, but there seemed to be a real sense of spontaneity and impulsiveness back then. Imaginations ran riot. That vitality seemed to drain out as the years went by and the rooms went to hell...

A vague ghost of a thing I’ve become, beset by dwindling intrigues and unwelcoming landscapes for the imagination, but I still haunt some role-playing circles much as, daresay, Jeremy Beadle still haunts the hapless. It’s perhaps a fitting analogy to compare NewAyenee.org to a standing stone...

*Revs up chainsaw* *Grins, cat-like*

The difficulty these days is that everyone is playing in different locales; original Ayenee/A&E/E&A gamers are scattered to the four winds (and beyond). Mith, remember me talking to you about sharing/collaboration of information/RSS feeds and the like? I'm still getting ideas on that. For...

A feat for sure Rhysis! Mind, by contributing only OoC posts and nothing in-character, you'd still be entitled to lock me in stocks and chuck some mouldy cabbages at me or something. ;)

Yes, but do you see there are no thoughts elaborated upon in that initial description. "Self-consciously" and "pondering" describe a state of thought and "defiance" describes an emotion. It's only through the posture (hands on hips), pouting, her voice and questioning tone will the reader come...

I would agree that a character's thoughts can help convey expression and body language, but it's not necessarily a good thing where those characteristics are implied, rather than outright stated. And how do you define "proper"? There are many ways to convey expression and posture. Many...

I’m with you: post length should change depending on the post in question. Some things do naturally demand more description, background and explanation. But you do still have to watch, because not everyone is prepared to read large posts. Sometimes a quick “dumbing down” or editing of posts...

I considered not posting this, because I frankly don't know if it will offer anything. My girlfriend cut her marital ties, three children in the balance, to be with me. She came to the realisation that she did not truly love her husband. For her, there was absolutely no going back. It was...

Well, I've added (or tried to) three paragraphs and some links. Hoped to contribute a little more information on its freeform nature, and the actual workings of characters and play. Wiki are pretty tough on their entries; unreliable sources and all that . . . :))

When James (Thornbury) was involved amid the period of disarray at .org, he asked if he could potentially call on me for some help with front-page coding and facilities. James may have passed out of the circle, but that offer still stands. If you need help with files, database, artwork...

I'd personally like to see .org evolve from its dark and bland colours, hence I favour more colourful and fantastic artwork. Perhaps change is good. If Charm’s attempt has fallen through, I place a vote for Aleita, for the reasons outlined above, thus promoting the entry to second place (as...
