Welcome Post | Meet & Greet

Hey hey, Everyone!

All of our December applicants are in the process of being ... well, processed! Thank you all for your patience, as you know it's been a busy month. We'd like to take a moment to roll out the welcome mat, get to know all our new players and muses, and give you all a very warm hello! We're really looking forward to getting to know everyone!

To get you newbies started, your mods are here as always to answer any questions you may have, so you will see some helpful links below. This space can also be used to meet, mingle, plot CR, and update other players on who you play and where their Intros are. Oh myyyy~!

OOC contact and information: Now that you're here, you can hit up our OOC Contact Post to let us know who you play and what the best means of getting in touch with you are. This post is locked to members of the OOC community, and it is optional. You can leave any fields blank if you don't want that information public, and post what you're comfortable with. All of the mod contact info you may need is right over here, so don't be shy about poking us if you need anything!

Game updates: We strongly recommend you join, follow, and/or track our OOC Community [community profile] ten_fwd_ooc. It's the best way to stay up to date with the game and any announcements from your mod team as soon as they happen.

Getting started: You can intro your character as soon as you have your game clearance. The standard setup is to be winked into Ten Forward by Q, but you can also tag into someone else's post or enter your character anywhere that isn't in a restricted area (ie: the bridge, engineering, crew operations). If you need special arrangements—such as an immediate Sickbay visit—leave a comment letting us know!
Quarantine, Sickbay, and Rooming: Your characters' first few days on the ship will involve a lax quarantine to guest quarters, Ten Forward, and the lifts/hallways between the two only, until they've passed a basic medical check and had some vaccinations. Due to the holidays, our next Sickbay log is TBA. After their Sickbay visits, characters will be released from quarantine, assigned permanent rooms, and allowed to move more freely around the ship. All new characters are assigned a room and a roommate by random draw. There will be an OOC post about room assignments this weekend, once all pending apps are completed, where we will announce when the IC Roommate Mixer-slash-Holiday Party will go up. This will include a linked IC tour and introduction to the ship.

--> More questions on WHERE TO BEGIN? Head over here!
--> Need more BASIC INFO about life on board and in the Star Trek universe? Head over here!

Plotting and CR: December's plotting meme is located here, or you may leave a comment directly to this post if you're looking for any particular plots or CR for your character. Tag around other people's requests, and make some new connections! Plotting/CR Memes typically go up the last Monday of every month, as do announcements for next month's plots/events and a log swap meet.

Mod Announcements: You can follow mod announcements using the admin: mod post tag here in the OOC comm. Our last announcement can be located here, have a look at your earliest convenience! Please note: AC will run January 10th - 23rd, but all December apps will be exempt until the next AC period.


Are there any other questions? Did the mods overlook something important? Please feel free to contact us, night or day, using the e-mail address tenforwardmods [at] gmail [dot] com, or leave a comment on this post. You can also friend our game plurk, [plurk.com profile] ten_fwd. We'll get to all your questions as soon as possible.

We look forward to meeting everyone! Come, say hi in the comments below!

And you know who I want to add. >.>

so... yep. And I manage most of my games fine... until AC sends me into a panic spiral. One of the many reasons to love this game, AC happens so much less often.

:: stabs AIM:: I miss chatting with you!!!!!

But I probably should get to bed soon. I have to be up in 4 hours for an 8 hour shift running around.

More like ugh me. It's well into what some people consider morning here. I consider those people heathens. I'd say insane, but why insult my own kind? :D

Okay, hopefully making it to bed this time.

I, uh, may or may not have a Fisk muse floating around my head. And I haven't played a villain in ages. You make things very very tempting for me.

Matt is just post Ben's funeral so they most likely would wind up on the brig at least once

However.....doesn't make me want it any less.

So I know this comment was answered on Plurk, but.

I just noticed something.

And it gave me a good laugh.

So I had to reply and say thanks, I'm glad you feel comfortable asking me questions as a mostly person. XD

"the full Pete experience," lol. Yeah, this phrase is a thing that exists for good reason. XD

I welcome ANYONE giving Pete shit, seriously it's too hilarious to waste. Sorry Zoey, but you and Helena are beautiful women, he can't not think about it. Also he has a vested interest in this relationship working out so Myka doesn't run off on him. :D?

I realize this now, and I HAVE NO REGRETS. YES PLEASE, ALL THE THREADS. I AM DOWN. ♥♥♥♥!

PFFFF get out of here with your incorrect use of the word "gross." Jackal is awesome and I will welcome ALL the CR with ALL the characters, true story.

We'll just have to thread all the time until we figure out which pancakes are keepers. :D

[personal profile] greystreetgabby 2015-12-21 08:44 am (UTC)(link)
♥!

LOL no sorry, I thought it was a common colloquialism but it's possible it's just a Southern thing. You always throw away the first pancake.

But lmao Guinan's hats. XD!

Welcome to Ten Forward! I'm Phaerie and I play Trip from Star Trek: Enterprise and Cat from Red Dwarf.

Olan'atar sounds really interesting - I'm looking forward to seeing him in the game.

I'd love to have Trip and Geordi meet sometime. Trip hates the Temporal Prime Directive and wants to know everything about the Warp Engines on the Enterprise D, so would bombard him with questions, and ply him with drink :) Plus Trip is working in his department, but ranked higher than him, which should be interesting...

Re: Gabby!

[personal profile] greystreetgabby 2015-12-21 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
YES PLEASE! I would love that! Ahaha, I actually have no idea how Geordi would respond, but plying him with drink is an excellent tactic. More Engineering bonding time = always, always good. :D

[personal profile] braveheart_clara 2015-12-22 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry so late to this! I did get you added to plurk though, and haha, it looks like we share another game together. Your Thea is a delight, though I don't know the character all that well yet. I also need to catch up in Gotham but Kris is adorable. Luna I DO know though haha. What a lovely cast of girls you have!

I'm hoping to be able to bring Clara into the game here shortly, and I would honestly love to see any of your girls interact with her. :D
braveheart_clara: (Happy: Smile Soft smile)

[personal profile] braveheart_clara 2015-12-22 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my goodness. Sorry so long in a reply. That thing that was happening ended up being a ER trip to the hospital today, so we're still working out the details now. Looking at another surgery though, which has me on a delay here.

And don't apologize at all for a late tag back! I don't mind! I'm so excited for Amy, you have no idea haha. BUt man, what a fun update you're going for. Clearly Clara and Amy need to go run around and give the Doctors all duel heartattacks and get into trouble together.

And yeah it does look like we have a lot of related fandoms! Oiy, my interest in Coulson is everything. Everything. I love that man. He can do no wrong LIES. He can do wrong but i dont want to admit it, my dumb baby, and yeah.... I always have interests. Always. He's my forever MCU love.
braveheart_clara: (Happy: Amused at your dumbness)

[personal profile] braveheart_clara 2015-12-22 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Hello! At first I was like "I can't say I know who this is!" Then I read, canon OC! Ah ha! That is a horse of a different color hehe. So I read a bit of her info, she seems pretty interesting. Poor Twelve.
braveheart_clara: (Happy: Charmed :D)

[personal profile] braveheart_clara 2015-12-22 03:14 am (UTC)(link)
Hello! Thank you for the greeting. More Who Cast is always a good thing, I like to say! This season was fun, I think. At least, I enjoyed it! But I have the worst crush on Twelve And Ten, and Eleven, and Nina, and, and, and... yeah, just the Doctor, I guess. I hope I enjoy it as well! Everyone has been very friendly :D
braveheart_clara: (Sad: Thinking)

RL STATUS UPDATE OF GANN

[personal profile] braveheart_clara 2015-12-22 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
So I ended up at the ER today, and I will more than likely be going into surgery here in the near future (aka: week or so). So I am def going to be slow. I'm starting to look into bring Clara in but I might be tag slow. What a horrible way to start a game, but I am so grateful you all are so nice and welcoming!

Thank you!
major_egret_msfsod: Jackal is not very impressed (Skeptical)

[personal profile] major_egret_msfsod 2015-12-22 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Yes that's true sorry about the confusion! XD

But yeah despite some differences in tactics, their personalities and priorities seem to me to resonate quite a lot. I'm looking forward to them butting heads and maybe figuring out how to work together, and Clara either mediating or just facepalming at them.
