[center][b]Episode 4 Knock on wood![/b][/center] [INDENT][COLOR="DimGray"][FONT="Tahoma"] Two of the destined children, Rem and Russel as well as Russ' Digimon had been wandering through the same forest for what seemed like days now. They were passing stumps they could've sworn they'd seen before and were generally getting more depressed and tired with every step. "Guys," Guilmon pleaded. "Guys, please." Both boys ignored the red dino. He had been pestering them for the last hour to stop and take a breather. "My legs really hurt." said Russ. "Maybe we [i]should[/i] stop." Rem stopped walking but said nothing. Guilmon and Russel glanced at eachother and patiently awaited his response. "Fine," Rem let out. Guilmon and Russ let out a sigh of relief and slumped down onto their behinds, finally being able to stop. "You two stay here, I'll keep looking. My Digivice is still beeping so my Digimon [i]has[/i] to be near." Russ stood up and quickly grabbed Rems shoulder as he was leaving. He pulled him back and talked right into the goggle-headed boys ear. "Look, Rem. We want to find your Digimon as much as you do but we've been walking for hours and still there's nothing. We have to rest and if you leave us we have to follow you to protect you. What good is having Guilmon here if he can't digivolve because he's too tired from walking?!" There was silence. Rem slouched down onto a stump and stared at the ground. Russ let go of his shoulder. "You're right." Rem agreed. "I'm sorry." Guilmon glanced sadly at Rem. "Rem... we'll find him eventually!" he encouraged. Rem smirked a little bit and just at that moment the stump he was sitting on uprooted and grabbed his arms and legs. A face appeared on the front and grinned at Russel and Guilmon. It quickly made off into the woods with Rem leaving Russ and Guilmon behind. "Come on, Guilmon! We have to get Rem back!" Russ shouted. Guilmon tried to stand but slumped back onto the ground. "Russ~ I can't. I'm too tired... I'm sorry." Guilmon yawned sleepily and rubbed his growling stomach. "And that was a [url=http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Woodmon#Woodmon]Woodmon[/url], they're very fast." Russ glared at the ground angrily and clenched a fist. There was nothing he could do but wait. [center]~~->>>-~~[/center] When Rem woke up he was in a damp and dreary cave. It was very dark but after feeling around he realized he was in a cage. Off in the distance he could see a small fire pit and a bunch of Woodmon dancing around it. Were they planning on sacrificing him? Or going to eat him? Either way he didn't want to stay to find out so he began tossing and turning to try and break the cage. "That won't work." said a gentle voice from another cage. "These cages are made from Woodmon wood which is nearly impenetrable." "Damn. There's got to be a way... huh?" Rems pocket started to vibrate and he took out a wildly shaking Digivice. His Digimon had to be near. He looked around and as far as he could see there was only one other cage. The one that contained that sweet, gentle voice. "Excuse me but... I believe you are my Digimon." Rem said. "I believe you are right, Rem." it replied. Rem was a little surprised it already knew his name. "When I was waiting for you to come to our world I was whisked away by an evil Woodmon and I've been in this cage ever since. With you here, I feel more powerful then ever before!" the Digimon took a deep breath and shot out a stream of bubbles. "Bubble blow!" It didn't even scratch the wooden cage but it was enough to bust open the poorly constructed lock. The Digimon jumped out of her cage and revealed herself to Rem. "Those Woodmon sure know how to craft wood but when it comes to metal work they have no idea what they're doing! The name's [url=http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Tanemon#Tanemon]Tanemon![/url]" she said excitedly. It was a small green plant digimon with bright red eyes and two leafs on her head. She attacked Rems lock and it fell apart instantly allowing him to escape. Realizing Tanemon had small feet he picked her up and ran out of the cave. Just as they thought they were going to make it out alive, a nearby patrolling Woodmon noticed them leaving and sounded the alarm. They were now surrounded by 6 stumps. Tanemon was quick to act and leaped out of Rems arms to fight. Noticing the trouble they were both in, the small green Digimon began to digivolve. "Tanemon digivolved to..." Tanemon grew long arms and legs. A caveman-like cloak fell onto her and a giant slingshot strapped to her back. "[url=http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Koemon#Koemon]Koemon![/url]" "Whoa! You're a monkey!" Rem exclaimed. "Swing swing!" Koemon yelled. He took the slingshot off his back and swung it around, knocking some of the Woodmon into others. He was doing decent damage but there were just too many. Just as all hope seemed lost the Woodmon all fled in terror leaving a baffled monkey and a very confused DigiDestined. "Thought you could use some help!" shouted Russel. He was riding on the back of a very large and intimidating Growlmon. "Pyro Blaster!" he roared as a huge ball of fire engulfed the whole Woodmon camp. After the fire settled, not a single Woodmon remained and Growlmon shrunk back to Guilmon.[/FONT][/COLOR][/INDENT] [center][b]Episode 5 Trouble brews, Lopmon refuses to lose![/b][/center] [INDENT][COLOR="DimGray"][FONT="Tahoma"] "I don't know what I would've done were it not for you guys." said Rem. "I'm in your debt." "Don't fret! After we ate we saw some smoke from a fire pit and figured you'd be near so we rushed here asap. I see you found your partner?" Russ asked. "Yes! This is Koemon." "I'm pleased to meet you." he said very kindly. Koemon looked up at Rem inquisitively. "So what now, Rem?" "Well.. I guess now we meet back at the waterfall."[/FONT][/COLOR][/INDENT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"][quote name='Aceburner']For reference, I was thinking of starting with [URL="http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Leviamon#Leviamon"][U]Leviamon[/U][/URL], then going from there with the others if we like how it turned out. Of course, him being a Mega, we'd probably have to start with some random subordinates. Sound good?[/QUOTE] We could start with Leviamon but it would take too long to finally fight him. Let's start with just a really strong evil champion Digimon. How about [url=http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Boogeymon#Boogeymon]Boogeymon[/url]?[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"][quote name='Aceburner']Did not know that. Purity seems to fit her well. I still like reliability for Joe, but eh. Sincerity works, too.[/QUOTE] I have to agree. Purity seems to fit Mimi more but Reliability definitely fits Joe more then Sincerity. Good ol' reliable Joe, haha. But now I'm just off topic. ^_^;[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Just thought I'd pop in and say that Teh Silly Circus wasn't just a marathon chat that lasted a week. Sure, that was probably the first Silly Circus but after that pretty much any OB chat that was created was called that. And there used to be a lot. And they went late into the night. :animesigh[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]So, you've just woken up or gotten home from school or work or what have you and you sit down at your computer desk, log in and click the bookmark for OtakuBoards. What do you do first? For me, I always start with clicking "Subscribed Threads." This is the equivalent of checking my e-mail and seeing all those "reply to thread - yadda yadda" notes but I get so many of those these days that I just delete them. So once I've looked through my subscribed threads that have been posted in I move onto looking for new or interesting threads. When you are looking through OtakuBoards which sections do you hit up first? Last? The first forum I check is always Arcade. This is probably a habit I picked up from when I was the Mod and would always check there first but it has stuck with me even after that. After that, I usually either check out the Auditions/Backstage for a new RP or the Art Studio/Art by Request for something to create (I really need to make a new worm entry soon...). I would say the next thing I do is just look at the most recent topics to see if anything catches my interest. Usually there's a title that does so I check that out and go from there. I don't know how but I could probably sit on OtakuBoards for hours straight without getting bored (not that I would want to, I do have a life you know!). There's so much to do and post about. So, what about you guys? What's your OtakuBoards Routine?[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='DeathKnight'][color=crimson]I've worked at pretty laid back places on the night shift so people PDAing and goofing off only mattered to me when rushes hit. What really bugs me is when, out of three workers on a shift, the other two guys go and smoke marijuana with four or five hours left for them to be **** out of their mind, haha.[/color][/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Even as a smoker I have to agree that smoking reefer at or right before work is still really dumb. I tried doing it once and I constantly screwed up orders, forgot things and it just wasn't fun. As for relationships in a workplace I don't really care so long as the couple doesn't let it slow down their working. I work at a movie theatre and with so many teenage employees there is always at least 3 couples going around. But I found that since the people in the relationships were good workers before they dated, they stayed good workers even after. We still get things done properly and on time as if nobody was dating at all.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='Aceburner'] -Sincerity (Mimi's, obviously a virtue.) -Reliability (Joe's, there's a strong point to be made here.)[/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]And if you want to get even more into it there's the fact that in the Japanese version Mimi's crest is Purity (being pure is probably the hardest thing to do of all the crests, hah) and [i]Joes[/i] is Sincerity. But eh. There are a lot of things anime screws you over with aswell. I'm in this group on Facebook called "Disney gave me unrealistic expectations about love" and I think anime did that aswell, haha. It definitely helped me learn to draw better, though. :/[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]So now that Jude has joined the group all we need is for me to post finding Tanemon and for Pyrus to post finding Mist. Then whenever Ugamon decides to write his Digimon sign-up we can find him too. Guys, I don't know about you but this is the most fun I've had with an RP in a while. :animesmil[/COLOR][/FONT] [B]EDIT:[/B] Reminder to Darren and Aceburner, you guys can still post just as long as in your posts we don't find Tanemon or Mist. Maybe one of you could hint at a evil digimon trying to stop the destined or even write from their perspective? Try to stay away from previous Digimon Villains though. No Devimon, Myotismon, Etemon, Dark Masters, etc. That's just an idea, there are tons of things to do in the Digital World that would make a good filler post. [b]EDIT 2:[/b] Just had a thought on location. In case you guys are wondering we are currently on File Island (the one with infinity mountain and all that jazz). Us, our Digimon and all inhabitants of File Island have no idea that another continent exists on the other side of the Digital World (the Server Continent).

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]"Spicy Onion!" "Delicious Patty!" both Burgermon appeared from behind some brush, followed by what seemed to be 20 more. They all launched their attacks and while Flymon was swift he was not fast enough to dodge 20 onion attacks. One of the delicious patties smacked his feet and he lost his grip on Jude. "Somebody catch me!" she screamed. A bunch of Burgermon scrambled to get underneath her and, piling ontop of eachother, created a comfortable landing for the scared DigiDestined. "Oh thank goodness! Thank you Burgermon!" the Burgermon just blushed and bowed to her. All of the Digimon moved to the side as Papa Burgermon and Mama Burgermon walked up to the group of destined children. "Jude, this is where you belong.. With the other DigiDestined." "Thank you Burgermon! You've been so helpful." Jude said sincerely. All the Digimon and their partners waved goodbye to all the Burgermon as they disappeared over the hill into their village. "Why couldn't we have gone with them? I'm hungry." Guilmon complained. "Because," Rem smirked. "I think there's someone else near here." All four DigiDestined looked at their Digivices and noticed there were a few red blinking lights. "Hmm, well mine only beeps when I point it in this direction." Kredion said. "And mine when I point it in this direction." Rem noted. The two looked at eachother and nodded. "So why don't we split up, get these lost Digimon or Destined and then meet back up?" Rem asked. Everyone agreed. "Alright, Russ and Guilmon, you guys come with me. Jude, Lopmon, and Veemon go with Kredion. We'll meet back at this waterfall when we've found whoever's missing. Good luck you guys!" And so Rem, Russ and Guilmon ventured into the deep woods while Jude, Lopmon and Veemon traveled with Kredion towards the beach. Rem could only wonder what his Digimon would look like.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='Nerdsy'][color=deeppink]Clarity, I believe, which is also what the Otakupedia page calls it.[/color][/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"][i]Clarity[/i], that's right. Thank you that was bothering me. :p[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"][quote name='Nerdsy'][color=deeppink]As for the secret mod forum... I can't be as sure, but I'm pretty sure it's dead too. I managed to find it (you'd be surprised what a simple google search for "secret ob mod forum" can do), joined (but my account was never activated, heh), and I haven't been able to find it again.[/color][/QUOTE] Oh man, I forget what was the code name for that forum? It's ironic that I'd forget it because I'm pretty sure I came up with it. I remember it was like the name of the skin of the forum at the top of the page or something. That forum was intense, though. Literally all of us were given admin powers so we were just running around editing other mods signatures and posts. Havoc, lol. Good times, though. [/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]If I'm mentally worn out and need to finish an essay or some sort of homework then I'll usually just drink a [color=red]Red Bull[/color]. It energizes me enough to keep me alert and allows me to concentrate on doing whatever I need to do for at least an extra 3 hours. Another thing I'll do is roll a joint but not actually smoke it. I just let it taunt me and tell myself I can't have it until I've done all my work. I manage to get things done pretty effectively this way. :p If the work I need to get done happens to be something artsy that doesn't involve writing then I smoke beforehand and just work at it straight. I get pretty creative. :animesmil Lastly sometimes I'll go for a run (or just exercise). You wouldn't think it's energizing but once you come in all sweaty and have a shower you definitely feel rejuvenated even if a little bit sore.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Start your engines because this Friday (the 25th of April) Mario and his friends come to the Wii with an all new control-style and a bunch of new karts and bikes to ride! woo~ [center][img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/dc/MKWiiBoxart.jpg[/img][/center] Alright, so I basically get excited for any Mario Kart game that comes out (so far Double Dash is my all-time favourite for the cooperative play) and that's no different for MK:Wii. For new characters we've got Dry Bowser (from New Super Mario Bros.), Rosalina (Super Mario Galaxy), Baby Peach and Baby Daisy, Funky Kong (!!!) and your Miis. There could be more but that's all we know about thus far. As far as I'm concerned all the characters from Double Dash and Mario Kart DS will be returning. We've got a buttload of new tracks here as well. Literally, they took tracks from [i]every[/i] Mario Kart game and altered them to fit the games new style of play. I won't bother naming them all but I will say I've seen some of the revamped SNES tracks and they look great. Let's get to the newest addition to the series, the Wii Wheel. [center][img]http://i.usatoday.net/tech/_photos/2007/07/13/wheelx.jpg[/img][/center] Apparently the wheel is very comfortable and works very effectively. Of course if you don't like it you can use one of the many other control types (GCN Controller, Classic Controller...). I think I'll be using the wheel, though. The game has been received fairly well so far.

[B][center]Episode 3 Digimon Switch-Up![/center][/B] [INDENT][COLOR="DimGray"][FONT="Tahoma"] After a long night sleep and a good hardy breakfeast, the Destined went off in search of something to do. They still had no idea why they were in this strange world and the Digimon had no clue why regularly nice Digimon were attacking them. "Lopmon," Rem said, Lopmon glanced at him. "How do you know I'm your partner?" "Well that's simple! I was able to digivolve to Lopmon because of you!" Rem thought about this for a minute. "We've seen tons of Digimon already and some of them are even higher leveled than you. Is it possible each one of them has a partner too?" "Nope, not at all. You guys are the only humans here. They must've digivolved on their own somehow." Lopmon responded. "Right, that's what I thought. When you, Gigimon and Demiveemon digivolved to what you are now, I noticed that only Russel's digivice was glowing. And if I'm right, and the digivice is the connection between the partner and the Digimon, then that would mean you and Veemon digivolved on your own." Just as Kredion was about to reply with his own theory, some rocks on the ground shuffled apart and a bright beam of light escaped from the cracks. Inside the light a hologram of a short old man appeared. "Greetings" he said. "I am Gennai." "Wah!" Russ yelped. "Are you an evil Digimon too! Kill him Guilmon!" "No, I am neither human nor Digimon. But I am here to help. You see there has been some trouble." "What kind of trouble?" asked Kredion. "Well, when you three children were called to the Digital World, 2 others were meant to join you. And you Digimon, when you were waiting in that forest for you partners there should have been 2 other Digimon with you." Gennai explained. "So.. what are you saying?" Rem wondered. "This absence of Digimon and Destined Children has caused a mix-up of partners. Lopmon and Veemon, you were able to digivolve to the Rookie level because you wanted to save your friends but you'll find neither of you can digivolve further withour your correct partners." "So..." Veemon trailed off. "Kredion and I aren't partners?!" the poor blue dino almost seemed hurt. "I'm afraid not. Veemon and Lopmon, your partners are not here with you right now. Rem and Kredion, your Digimon are not with you either. Guilmon and Russel, you two are the only correct partnership right now so do whatever you can to protect the others until you're all together." at that moment, Gennai began to cut out. The hologram faded and only his last words were heard before completely ending transmission. "[i]The digivices will lead the way!"[/i]" There was a short silence between the troupe as they all thought about the meeting with Gennai. "Well, if he's right and we need our real partners to get back home then let's go find them!" Rem proclaimed. Kredion jumped to his feet beside him and for the first time since arriving, he smiled at the others. "I agree, I'm a little excited to see what my Digimon looks like." he said. Veemon glared at him. "Not that you aren't great or anything, Veemon!" Everyone laughed and stood to get ready to go. Just as their things were packed, Rems digivice started beeping like crazy. "Guys!" he shouted. "I think one of the missing kids or digimon are near!" and off he ran in the direction the digivice pointed. The others ran after him, slightly annoyed that they were running.[/FONT][/COLOR][/INDENT] [SIZE="1"][CENTER][b]OOC:[/b] Wow, long post. So basically in your posts, have the group finding the different missing partners. I will post when we find Tanemon (Rems digimon), Kredion can post us finding his Digimon, Darren will post us finding Lopmons partner and Pyrus will post us finding Veemons partner. Aceburner, if you want to post you can do a filler post of whatever you want. How you guys come across your missing partner in your post is entirely up to you. Maybe they've been kidnapped and need rescuing or maybe they just happen to stumble onto the scene by chance. It's all your choice. Once we've got everyone in the group with their correct partners we can finally begin the real adventure.[/CENTER][/SIZE]

[quote name='James'][font=franklin gothic medium]My thinking is that on its maiden voyage, there might even be ways that people can win tickets for the Von Braun. So we should see a good cross-section of characters (i.e. not just the rich and famous).[/font][/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]That's a good idea. I was also thinking of a possible reason my character is on the Von Braun is because he is either 1) a stowaway that somehow makes it onto the vessel that brings people to Von Braun or 2) an engineer of some sort for the ship. I know you probably wouldn't mind the 2nd one but what do you think of a stowaway in the hotel? Would it be possible or would the security be super tight? You two posting this thread was like a teaser for the RP and now we've got even more information as a trailer. I feel like I'm waiting for the launch of a big movie! Come to think of it, around when will this RP launch? I'm a little excited. :p[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='James'][font=franklin gothic medium]I haven't tried this yet, but I do own Mario Paint on SNES.[/font][/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]I really loved that game as a kid. I rented it all the time with my brother and we'd take it home and play around with the music maker for hours. The SNES mouse was pretty sweet too, even if it was a little clunky. These are pretty insane, though. I'm amazed people have the patience to work so long on these. I'd like to see someone make their own original song with this program, haha.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Now I have nothing against DC Comics and I [i]certainly[/i] have nothing against the Mortal Kombat franchise but something about this game just doesn't sit right with me. While it is cool to see our favorite DC heroes fight against Mortal Kombatants it almost seems like the DC characters were just thrown into a Mortal Kombat game as a bonus. I realize we haven't seen much of the game yet but already you can tell the fighting style is exactly the same as any other Mortal Kombat game (save for the free fall fighting, which looks kind of neat). Seriously, when is Midway going to take their heads out of their ***** and add something new to the series? And no, adding 50 new characters (even if they are from another franchise) is [i]not[/i] something new and interesting. I love MK and I like Midway but it's been the same game for the past 10 years. It's time for a change. :/ MK is good, and DC characters are cool but honestly, if the DC characters don't have some bad *** super hero moves and just have regular punches and kicks I'm going to be severely disappointed.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='Darren']Well, my only question now is how we'll deal with the continuity???[/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]My question is does it really matter? We're the only ones reading/writing the RP so really we can do whatever we want with it. :animesmil It [I]would[/I] be convenient for someone to get Seadramons DigiEgg, though. Maybe the Digivice purifies it or something. [/COLOR][/FONT] [b]Edit[/b] Alright I've written and posted my Digimon sign-up sheet.

She had [i]the best[/i] Digimon fan art. :( Determination is a great one. I think Rem will either have Truth or Reliability. So I guess let's write the new sign-ups into the posts with our first ones in the Audition thread. Just edit 'em in. That way I can link directly to each post (which will contain that persons Digimon and Destined) in my first post of this thread (seeing as eventually the Audition thread will be off the first page).[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Now this is interesting. I have a question, though. Is going into space a normal thing for humans now or is it kind of like we have the technology but only rich people can afford to go frequently/stay in space hotels?[/COLOR][/FONT]

[SIZE="1"][b]OOC:[/b] Aceburner I hope you don't mind but since you already are controlling your Digimon and Destined I'd like to give the first evolution to Guilmon.[/SIZE] [center][b]Episode 2 Howling fury! Growlmon appears![/b][/center] [INDENT][FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]"Okay, Guilmon! You're the fastest of us three and also the best hunter so Veemon and I will stay here and keep this snake busy while you go get food." Lopmon directed. "And hurry!" Without even thinking for a second Guilmon nodded and dashed in the other direction towards the woods, Russ on his back. Rem looked at Lopmon with a worried look and back at the forest where Guilmon and Russ just disappeared into. "I really hope they're back soon..." he said to Kredion. "He better be." Kredion replied. On the battlefield, the two child Digimon were struggling to stay alive let alone fight back. They had been in there fighting for a good 10 minutes and they had no energy [I]before[/I] the Seadramon even attacked. Finally a crushing blow was delivered to Lopmon and Veemon at the same time. With one swift bat of its tail, Seadramon sent the two monsters flying into the arms of their Destined partners. Lopmon looked up at Rem with sadness in his eyes. "I'm sorry Rem, I tried so hard." "Stop that, you did great." Rem glanced at the Seadramon who was starting to zone in on him and Kredion. Just as all hope seemed lost a yelp was heard from behind them. It was Russ. "Hey! Seadramon! Yeah you, you big ugly worm! Over here!" Over and over Russ taunted and threw rocks at the serpent. It turned its head towards him just enough so that Guilmons oncoming sneak attack squared him right in the face. It seemed to do a decent amount of damage too. "Has Guilmon eaten?" Kredion asked Russ who was still taunting nearby. "Yeah! We could only find berries and shit but it was enough to give hi-" just at that moment Seadramon's tail shot out of the water behind Russ and latched onto his feet. It instantly pulled him down, deep into the lake.[/COLOR][/FONT][/INDENT]

[quote name='Darren']I would be okay with that... But would I get to take Lopmon or you keep him??? Or, I have an idea. Since you could get Lopmon, Ace is adopting Russel, and Ugamon is going to take Veemon, maybe if I were to create a character, you guys could choose my digimon just to keep it fair...[/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Each member keeps what they signed up with. So I keep Rem and make my own Digimon, you would keep Lopmon and make your own Destined and so on and so forth. That way each person only has to write one new sign-up as opposed to a Destined [i]and[/i] a Digimon sign up. The only exception being Aceburner who already has Russ. So for stopping the whole partners thing and changing so that each person controls their own Digimon and Destined, we have 3 yays and 0 nays. We just need to see what Ugamon and PyrusDragon want.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[quote name='Sayrin']I think that if we give 48 hours to poeple to do their artwork, they will claim more often...[/QUOTE] [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]The only problem with that is they can potentially take 1 day and 1 night to work on their art. Lets say on a busy night like Saturday there are 5 different artists who are online and available to make a piece they'll have to wait 2 days before they can and by then they might not have time anymore. I think the system we have now is working fine, it just doesn't seem that way because people happen to be busy atm. It is picking up, though. :animesigh As soon as I get home I'm making a piece! And that's the nice thing about our current system... Even if I get home one hour from now and someone already claimed the next spot, they'll be done within 3 hours and I'll still be able to make mine. :whoops:[/COLOR][/FONT]
