The WAR IS OVER!!

[LaughingTurtle]

Heh, just kidding or am I? Read on and see what the hell I'm talking about

Alright I’ve been talking with a couple war posters and we’ve come to certain consensus on the current state of affairs. The war as we know it has become that questionable dish left in the Tupperware at the back of the fridge. Curious observers check in on it now and again but only for a brief time as they realize how massive and bloated it has become. This is not even to mention the fuzzy eyes staring back at them on the mold. There are a few hardcore hungry people but even they can only stomach the stench of expired mystery meat and rotted cabbage for so long.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying the war is bad or to abandon it. That is the farthest thing from my mind. Unlike last year’s leftovers, we are not talking about tossing this out in the trash. We’re merely going to cut some fresh onions, whip out the Worcestershire sauce and nuke this baby for five minutes on high! Namely we plan on closing down the current story (only temporarily), clean up some loose ends, update the info threads (like character list), put up an abbreviated summary and then reopen with a fresh start.

Thus, new people will find it much easier to jump in on the action and readers won’t find it as such a daunting task to follow along. This isn’t written in stone, but barring any strong opposition it is going to happen in the near future. It will be clearly announced so people can find a good stopping point or cliffhanger in their next few post(s).

So thoughts, comments, yay/nay? Anything’s welcome as long as it pertains to the war.

yay

~claps~

Its been good, but I've created a boulder that I've only just edged to the bottom of the mountain in which it needs to climb....this solves my problems and has me ready to start again somewhat refreshed

so yay again and ~applauds~

puts forward tht the next war should be called....shadows

Sounds like a plan to me.

I know I've been kind of lax with my character...

[Tatum]

Sounds good. I may need one more post before we shut down though.

[wiggin]

For a sec I thought you meant Avy Wars, and I was going to smash your head in.

[Anita Blake]

coolness. sounds like a good idea. t'would be good to get it all cleaned up fresh and shiny-like.

[Buck]

you know what LT, can you shut own Avy wars just for kicks? Id really like to see wiggin actually cause physical harm.

On a side note, this locking of the war may actually get me caught up and posting about Kreyce again. I always likes him as a character.

[QuirkyTemplate]

Yeah, i like this idea as well. When do you plan on doing this (so I know how long I can procrastinate in posting some loose-end-tierupers)?

[LaughingTurtle]

Well hopefully in the near future, but not before the 'active' posters get a chance to put up a closure post.

[Buck]

So, let me get this straight.

1. The war is not over, it is being paused so people can catch up and get in on it.
2. The war is not paused yet.

Are you trying to advertise the War, or is this a plee for attention LT?

[LaughingTurtle]

*sigh* no it's not stopped yet, this is merely a notice for people to sum things up. Then it will be as you said, paused so that clean up and summary can be done. Then re-opened again. Advertising would posting about it not in the war forum

[~KA3AK~]

That's a great idea. I'm actually ready to come back to the war, but I'm sure that when I finally read the last few pages I will be overwhelmed by the kaleidoscope of events.

[QuirkyTemplate]

Well, my loose ends are tied for the break (well ... for the most part. if tats wants to finish that bit with dorian, then just add that on)

[sir archely]

i.. uh... you know... ~runs away~

[QuirkyTemplate]

if tats wants to finish that bit with dorian...
