Also, what time is the zombie fest going to break out?

Everyone is using "Day 0, XX:XX" but it doesn't really tell me anything. Can we set it up so that the time is relative to zombie time?

That is:

"-6:00 hrs."

1am, yes...though that' merely the first recorded case in the area.

We've got a lot of Ev characters. It's going to get seriously confusing with Kev, Mev and Evan. xD That's really cool.

Ah. I didn't even notice :p

His name was originally Emmanuel, but it didn't at all fit his character.

I wasn't sure how exactly the time frame would work, but everyone else seemed to be posting pre-zombie intros, so I was all, "When in Rome..."

BTW, a few people were talking about names. If anyone was wondering what the heck kinda name is "Lilliah", it's mostly based on the Hawaiian name "Liliha", meaning "angry disregard".

You double space paragraphs so your post is more easily read...

Attention Everyone Who Was In Chat

--Bubbles, Brad, Jenna, and Insanity: Post as planned. Order is Bubbles, Brad, Insanity, and finally Jenna. You all have your individual assignments.

--Tony and Squallz: post at will.

--Whence: work yourself in where you can.


Everyone Else

--IHOP Group: Take your cues from Brad and the others--they know what's going on. Go ahead and feel free to post, just don't take our group out of the IHOP.

--Convicts: You guys have your own thing going on; post at will.

Everyone Else: Work yourself into the story.

Will do.

Also, TNcowgirl, do you need to be worked into the convicts plot somewhere? I've noticed you've been observing Dave and I when we've just been released and I'm not too sure how you fit in. If you want to chat or mull anything over PM Siegfried and he'll inform me (or the other way round lol). Just contact either one of us and we'll sort something out.

And all you other guys, to be honest, I've no idea how we fit in with you lot but I'm sure Sieg will think of something! With any luck, the main introduction character development is almost done and we'll be able to start integrating with the rest of the plot. I'll have to have a chat when we're all on.

Also, do post if things get a bit too out of character of the story book, Hunter/anyone else responsible. I'm not sure how Derrik will react to a horde of zombies though! Could be interesting.

Well, I worked my way into the story... into IHOP, hah. Didn't read this thread until I posted, so I hope it doesn't mess up any plans. XD

(Sorry I wasn't involved in that chat, but then, I was probably watching Pirates while you guys were chatting. Wink )

I think Lilliah's gonna have to meet up with y'all after the zombie outbreak. She doesn't strike me as an IHOP type of girl, and she sure as hell isn't hanging out with convicts.

In fact, she probably isn't hanging out with anyone. Unless she's in survival mode, and she has to. So unless I see some other opportunity, I probably won't be posting for her until that time. Just in case anyone's wondering. Smile

Okay, I'm pretty sure the order of posting got screwed up. And I just got ditched listening to the professor lol. I'll just post something now and I'll work it out later. Smile
