Ideally I'll do that before the weekend's up, and then discuss who's going to be taking part in the next installment and the one after that provided I've got sufficient activity. I'm tired of people saying I can't get shit done when only like one or two of the 5-10 players I have posts at crunch time and it's somehow my fault.

Now this is how you run a forum game. If the players don't feel like posting, then they'll have to suffer the consequence of not being able to alter the next update. No train stops because there's someone asleep on the tracks, you just got to run them over. All you need to do is continue updating, then the people that are bumming around are all like "Fuck! I got kidnapped this update, I better get my lazy ass in gear before I wake up with a condom in my ass and a $5 bill between my asscheeks!".

Anyway, I've got high hopes for the next installment, keep on truckin'.

Chapter 2 resources are mostly done. Will post here, of course, when I choose the participants.

o_O Now that I'm done with tons of work and tests, I don't think there's a whole lot standing in my way in the department of chapter 2.

Participating in this installment, and let's hope it'll go better than the first for me:

Meatshield
Desert Sleepy
Snowwolf
Slacker Hero
Flasktoss
FoundDaKiwi

With Hulk in this installment, things are probably going to go even worse.

By the way, I've had this on my mind since the green haired chick came into the story last installment but kept from saying it 'cause I didn't want to interfere. How come NOBODY had any problems with her statement of "I'm going to hijack this ship and crash it into a big building"? I realize all the participants were kidnapped, but I can't be the only one who that set alarm bells off for. I don't recall her even mentioning if it was one of their buildings or not, so as far as I could tell, it was just crashing into "a big building". Even if it was one of their buildings, that's still awfully shifty.

I personally would have gone with the whole "Reaching my full potential" option over the really terrorist-y sounding one, but that's just me.

Dear, sweet Eagle, thou shalt knoweth that I'm prepared to play the shit out of this forum game.

It's time to get old.

It confused me too, to be honest; I expected the players to make decisions in a certain way, or perhaps approach the situation in a way that would have made a bit more sense, and because they didn't, I ended up doing some railroading that I hadn't intended to do and am largely disappointed with.
