I'm figuring that we'll be going to the hospital a lot so I'll work on a character sheet for Locket (why did you have to name her so similar to my name!) So yeah I'll have that up after my bath.

Ooh, ooh, Locket is actually Lockette, the R63 version of Locke from another universe!

Name: Locket
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Appearance: Locket is a Pink earth pony with a blue mane (I think these colours work together). Her eyes are green. She wears a silver heart shaped locket with a hole on the left side to look as if a chunk was torn out.Locket always wears her nurse cap at all times.
Personality: Locket suffers from Self esteem issues. She doesn't have confidence in any of her skills aside from her special talent, nor does she like her appearance. She's very complacent and will do just about whatever is asked of her despite what her own thoughts may be. If given a compliment she will grasp on it for dear life, and will possibly become attached to anypony who gives who says something nice about her if she lets it sink in. She deals with stress horrible and is liable to cry under extreme pressure.
Cutie Mark: A golden heart necklace
Cutie Mark info: Her special talent is making jewlery, especially necklaces. She made a locket for a picture of her parents after a fire, and that's when she realized her special talent.
Other: She wears her hat all the time because it makes her feel better about herself.

Stats
Strength: 7 (being an earth pony is nice about that whole strength thing)
Perception: 10 (have you ever made a necklace? Neither have I but Imagine it takes a lot of detail)
Endurance: 6 (physical, not mental)
Charisma:2 (you read the personality, right?)
Intelligence: 9 (could of been a doctor, wasn't confident enough)
Agility: 4 (.... it's 4. Nothing much to say)
Luck: 4 (could be better)

I actually had to keep increasing her stats until it rounded up to 42. Also I'm not sure how much she'd need to be used until we end up in the hospital again. She sort of has a job to stay at. Unlike all these self employed ponies

you know that 42 is just a maximum, right? you could go as low as 7 if you want.

How is that a reason not to post anyway? I mean, the more we post without them, the more uninturrupted progress we get before their posts break ours up...
Don't make us wait on Penwrite! If you can post for him, go ahead and do so, then we can get to the action faster!

so Equestria has Chinese and Italian? shouldn't it at least be Istallion? but then again, that would mean from Istally, and that doesn't make much sense.

HERE, LET ME MAKE MINE "SALAD PLACE" INSTEAD OF ITALIAN.

It's worth noting that fluttershy said French before. Implying that the place is just called france. I dunno about that french guy though, I never bothered to watch the train episode.

Daemon, why do you quote my entire post? You know you can just erase the parts that have nothing to do with your character?
Also, I'd like you to make longer posts, with more than just a simple action and some speaking: there's not much for me to read or respond to in the last one...

Uh oh. Bad idea guys!

We need to avoid trying to keep the group together, ok? If we have too many players in one loop, it'll take FOREVER to go through rounds!

Re: MLP:FIM RP: Grand Castilia OOC

probably should have paid attention and tried to stop it sooner.
both Sunset and Penwrite clearly expressed their intention to go to the Chinese place, Penwrite even said you needed to talk to Sunset.
Sunset was clearly in a group with me.

we're already there, but how will it take forever with just two more players, one of whom replies fairly consistently?

It always does. No matter who it is. We're not all on the same time, remember? Me, Rayne, and Penwrite have been going about 2 or 3 times a day lately, but that's in the afternoon. You post later in the night, and CTC has a tendency to drop off for a while. That could be an issue.

I say we 1) avoid getting all players into the same loop for too long, 2) Don't sit at the same table, and 3) have any character whos player isn't going to be around for a day get up to get more food or something...

Re: MLP:FIM RP: Grand Castilia OOC

well, Penwrite already expressed interest in talking to Sunset, so ctc would probably be in your group anyway.
and that would leave me alone with nothing to do unless another member of your party came with me but this would still not make much sense since Sunset is buying a meal for Shin and moon, so they'd probably stay together.

Had you intervened sooner, something could have been done. at this point, nothing makes sense story-wise except for everypony eating together.

maybe if Galaxy came and interrupted things.

I came forward as soon as I realized the mistake. There's nothing I can do to FIX it at this point, so I'm saying we need to compensate.

Re: MLP:FIM RP: Grand Castilia OOC

Well, we're open to suggestions on HOW to compensate.

Also, Galaxy's there now.

Oh, I have an idea! Have Galaxy's endless flirting with Penwrite make Navy get all huffy and go to sit at a different table than him! Locke could go with her to, well... be Locke, and maybe Sunny could go too. I dunno.

Daemon, you need to check the OOC thread every day. That's kind of a rule...

Anyway, one suggestion is that, in my last post, I had Hate sit in a chair. Did Daemon sit down in one like Hate intended? How nervous is he? Maybe he's squirming uncomfortably?

In the latest post, Hate is conjuring a very full illusion around them. How does Daemon react? You don't need to try and go over the top (actually, going too over the top would break the serious nature of the situation) but it'd be nice to see if he's surprised by the magic, or rolling with it...

Yay insults!

By "Gem Digger", Navy means that she literally goes out and digs up gems, which are easy to find all over Equestria and are therefore, not worth much.

That's easy. you erase the parts you don't need, while keeping the quote tags. Ex:

Not sure how "impossible" it is compared to that thing Rarity seems to be able to do, but that's a bit more descriptive now Daemon.
I would've liked for you to have quoted me though, since it was the previous page...

...Just trying to give advice, sorry if it's too much...

-- Edit --
To be honest, it's occurring to me that I've gotten you into one of those things where all my posts are going to be flashbacks, and yours are just going to be reactions... I'll try to pace it well for you, maybe toss something in there for Daemon o interact with...

-- Edit again --
By the way, you guys at least find the flashbacks interesting to read, right? I should ask that, seeing as they're about to become mildly violent...

To be honest I don't read the posts where my character is nowhere neartoo much. Partially due to lazyness. I usually go back to read those later.

By the way, I kind of want us to choose a GM for this RP, seeing as that first post needs to be maintained and we might need one at some point...
I'd say Brent, Penwrite, Exranio, and Me all seem like viable GMs at this point. Any other thoughts? Keeping in mind we can structure this however we feel like...

Organize votes, approve new characters, watch the RP and make sure rules are followed... Nothing really major... Just general leadership within the RP...

If we don't have a GM, we should figure out a better way to approve new characters and stuff...
