And then everyone gets laid.

One possible path I already predicted. Typical romance plot line of minimum level complexity. I keep wondering where it get's subverted, though... Perhaps everyone should try to push towards this ending and see how the GMs react. It would be amusing for sure...

Let's hope it doesn't turn into Titus Andronicus.

Why do I get the feeling that this isn't a good plot development?

Oh dear... while I'm tempted to find this amusing, and he's brought it on himself, I can't help but feel slightly guilty about the whole thing. I think we freaked him out a bit too much.

Maybe I shouldn't have brought up Rosaline.

Don't worry Scarab, I'm pretty sure that you didn't push him over the edge. And he had it coming anyways.
For now is there anything we can do, or should we just let this run it's course?

Yeah I guess you're right, it was a combination of factors more than anything. And msot of it could've been avoided if he hadn't been a collosal idiort. And yeah I think this is just a Slice of Life type plot which is going to keep running it's course without us. Hopefully Romeo will have learned his lesson from this. (Or at least he'll have figured out that drowning his sorrows in Booze is not neccesarily a good idea.)

On an unrelated note, it's so strange to use the name Romeo in a sentence regarding somebody's social behaviour, and NOT be meaning it ironically...

See, this is what I meant when I warned you guys with my Wall Of Text a few pages back. Reality is already ensuing.

As to what to do now, I suggested above we should nudge this toward the generic plot Dryu mentioned above just to see where the GMs would change things up. I'm kinda interested to see that. This means nudging Juliet to go visit Romeo, not really for any romantic reason, just because.

Secondly, perhaps we should gain his trust by making a lot of comments on his blog wishing him well. As many people as stay updated on this topic should post get well soon messages. I'll post mine shortly.

Great idea. I was already planning on doing that. Doing it now.

I am also doing so... although in part, because I feel a little guilty anyway :/

Sometimes a lie can do much better than the truth. No need to feel guilty if you are trying to help them.

Meh, in this case, I have no real use to directly lie at the moment. The GMs have been doing their best to catch people doing that. It's more useful to just assume a personality. It's all in how you act and present yourself. With the right bearing and behaviour for every situation, it always goes as planned.

Technically I didn't even LIE the first time and I'm not lying this time either... I think it might have been honesty that got him in this state.

Always telling the truth makes it much harder for them to pick you out, right? Apparrant honestly projects it's own aura of trustworthiness. People don't think so much about what's NOT being said provided they can trust what you ARE saying.

...I've been hanging around you too much, Sicon. Still I'd rather be honest where I can...

Yes. Yes you have. You really are getting quite good at this. Grats. I'm very impressed.

Guys, someone called The Great Gatsby has been posting on both blogs. There is a chance that he is another player, but his posts are all remarkably well done, this is a situation he WOULD pay attention to, and his actions are all in character. I need someone to get confirmation of identity from Mr. A.

I noticed that, too, but I was sure it was just a troll.
If you think it's worth looking into, though, can someone with twitter check with Mr. A?

Need someone with Twitter...

SH*T! NONONONONONONONONNONONONONONO! WAIT! That guy is me! DON'T DO IT! PLEASE DON'T!

Shoot that was not the intended result.

Not again... I am so sorry for that!

A little warning on the forum ahead of time would've prevented that.

Yea... I really screwed the pooch on that one...

Whatever. They don't look harmful to the characters' plotlines this time, so now that we know what it is, the danger's neutralized.

Original Thought: If I use characters that can relate to the fictionals then maybe I can get them to open up more.
Second Thought: Wait... What about my Gatsby ARG? That will totally conflict!
Third Thought: Crap! What if the Meta's think it's a fictional!?
Fourth Thought: I CAN'T DELETE THE POSTS!

My thought process. My apologies for an idea gone very very wrong.

Okay, this is off topic now, the problem has been made aware thank you.

New post from Romeo: http://romeo.ezblog.twwf.info/?p=48
Good news: He's being very mature and responsible, finally.
Bad news: He wants to stay. (I still don't think this will be a problem, since Vanessa's his reason for staying-- see my plan above.)

It's addressed to Juliet. Should I direct her to it in her blog? Or wait for her to find it on her own?
