Disclaimer: This is a long read, but I did my best to be entertaining

So I'm starting this threads OOC now to help explain the goings on.

This first thread is the thread where the Waste Rangers actually start to exist.

Now I've sent pms to all of you (excluding two who recently joined, I'll get to you in a bit) the message basically is an invitation to the Saloon, the Waste Ranger base of operations.

I have two pictures for reference on the interior of the Saloon so everyone can be on the same page setting wise

First floor

Second Floor

As of today there are 28 of us, but I want to do something crazy.

I want us all, just for this thread perhaps, to do this at once.

Duke that's bonkers!

It will never work!

You'll never be clean Duke no matter how hard you scrub you'll never be cleeaaan


QUIET the lot of you!

I intend to do this in a very organized fashion that will allow people to come in and out of the thread as they please if they wish to be objective or stick around and socialize with the NPCs and each other.

I'm going to do this by splitting the Saloon thread into three threads

But Duke you said you wanted us all together!

Duke if we're all separated we won't meet everyone and Christmas will be ruined!

You are tearing me apart Lisa!


Quiet you!

The three threads will all be during the same time period, rather than splitting the group, I'm going to split the Saloon.

Going back to the reference pictures, I'm going to split the Saloon into three distinct areas. The Bar, The Garage, and the Second floor.

Now everyone will post in the bar, it's immediately beyond the front door and it's where intros will be made. After that you need to meet the NPC that assigned your mission, Ross and Vince will be in the bar so again you can do that immediately, but Pepper and Scalia are in the garage.

Now that you've posted in the bar you can now post in the garage thread as you move into the garage from the bar, see how it works?

Okay so what's the second floor for? Simple it has no objective it is a relaxing space for those who wish to casually talk, have their character relax from a long journey, or use the bathroom.

So down to brass tacks, 28 is a big number, one bad apple and the thread will screech to a halt.

Except

There will be no posting order. All I ask is that people not double post. This will allow quicker rpers to get in and get out and get on their missions if they really want to as well as allowing a lot of witty banter and quicker action, if you find you haven;t posted in some time don;t worry, just think of it as a big family gathering at thanksgiving, sure a lot is going on but everyone is entertaining themselves don't feel compelled to react to every little thing.

I'll be NPCing and hosting this thread as soon as the skip comes so watch out for it.

Now

Any questions?

Will you be posting a drink list so we can order and not have to get surly about the bar lacking the drink ordered?

Sounds like it will be fun. As long as you promise Christmas isn't going to be ruined. :CStern

Vince can make anything anything he just wont serve human blood. It's more a health code thing than a moral thing

Oh I also forgot to mention after every mission well do one of these, do three missions with a single contact and in the next Saloon thread they'll give you a reward, there will be some two part missions that will speed up this process and of course special events have special rewards.

Depends who you work for, people like Ross, the information broker both can give a faction wide benefit of new info on old missions and personally you'll get some ranger design tech that helps you strategize, complie information...things like that.

Meanwhile work for Scalia and you'll help the rangers get new vehicles and she'll look at customizing, modifying or repairing your armor and vehicles

So it all depends on who you work for

Can't wait.

Rowdy Rowe has had far too little screentime on this site. It's time he gets to work shooting holes in the badguys of Zonjou. :CStern



Speaking of which I'm going to have to get him a suitably Winchester-esque rifle to get the right feel. :CIsee

We're a smoking bar...no durn nanny state in deep space.

Also every Ranger will be given a hat, a duster, and an extra special goody at the meetings conclusion.

Well this is an interesting way of doing this. Should fun. For some reason while reading your post I imagined Gollum in one of his monologues with Sméagol.

Yeah it's either going to be complete chaos, lots of fun, confusing, ineffective, or all of the above
