    Do you guys need help with anything else? I probably won't do voice acting again (ugh, what a nightmare I was!) but I could probably draw up some backgrounds if you need any.
    Also, what other voices (preferrably female ones) do we still need? I know a pretty good voice actress who I'm pretty sure would be willing to play someone.

    It wasn't a nightmare for others like me, I say.

    I'm taking a break from voice acting right now to work on writing, but that Maxilyah for thinking of me.

    ^ Very funny. :p
    While I thought you were pretty good at acting, I know someone who is really good at impersonations who I'm almost sure you guys are unfamiliar with.

    I'm un familiar with a lot of good imperinators...wait is it Nuclear Reactor?
  • edited December 2009
    I endorse this project. I think I may be able to do a passable Winslow, so I'll upload something later on.
  • edited December 2009
    Cool :)

    Maxilyah, some backgrounds would be great! (if you have some free time) I'm sure Tpravetz would like to see some too :) And so far the only female voice we've cast is Morgan, so maybe your friend would like to audition for Elaine, Krebbs or the Voodoo Lady. Or maybe the merpeople (not sure if we're going for males or females for them!)

    Cool! I might not be able to work on them until the weekend, though. My computer's broken right now (on my mom's) but my tablet works pretty good on my dad's computer.
    I'll see if I can get her to send in some auditions. ;)

    Still haven't finished RotPG for multiple reasons. 1. I don't want it to be over. 2. Not enough free moments. 3. I spend said free moments checking up on here.

    We always will accept help!

    Another endorsement? And Winslow! Always needed!

    You know me too well. I love to here the tryouts. Merpeople... I guess they could go either way. I think they're more female-ish, but a guy could still do it (so if any guys want to try, go for it.)

    All right. Glad to see your doing well. Also, if you want, you can follow me on Twitter... Just search for Tom Pravetz. All right. I hope to be able to be more helpful soon. Time to go work on RotPG!
  • edited December 2009
    Cool to see this project is still going on. Any word on what else is needed ASAP?
  • edited December 2009
    OK! Finished RotPG... Now I'm depressed... Hurry up TTG, and make another!

    Back on track. Did I miss any tryouts/major achievements/script ideas?

    Not mentioned, but Guybrush should eat a monster made out of spaghetti just because.

    Monster: ME KIDNEYS!

    Just say lines you'd expect a character to say that really shows off your stuff! Either post 'em here, or PM them to me. :D

    You can do it! Yay!
    Heh heh, not helping, am I? XD
  • edited December 2009
    Why, you're always helping.
  • edited December 2009
    Ooh! A project! Which sounds really great! :3

    I hope you still need... no wait, that sounds like I'm a must-have.
    Could my drawing/voice-acting/coffee-making skills come in handy at some point? Cause I'd really love to take part in this, you know. ;)
  • edited December 2009
    Yes! I'm worried this project is falling of the map... Now the season is over, people are losing interest. We need to keep it going! I'd love help. Especially with scripting. Now show us what you got!
  • edited December 2009
    Losing interest in Monkey Island? Kind of can't imagine that. ;D
    Oh, and stumbling upon this question:
    Tpravetz wrote:
    How are we going to stay in touch after the game is over? Everyone just going to stay around here?
    I'm thinking that Skype might be a good way. At least I think actually TALKING things out rather than just TYPING would work more efficiently. And for sharing the script with the others, I'd say Google Docs might work better than anything else, like sharing the text document via eMail and having everyone in the team manually change it all the time.
    Said combination has proved to be successful. (If it weren't... well, that radio drama for Majus wouldn't have been released already. ;))

    Oh and in case there's something else to be done... I'd try me best. Like graphics and all that.
  • edited December 2009
    Great to see so many people are still interested in the project! Sorry I've been so inactive lately, I'm still here though! :D

    Skype could work; even just making sure we all have each other's email addresses would be a good start. I've never looked into google docs myself before but that does sound like an ideal suggestion, Mandahaya. :)

    I'm not really one of the "official" writers for the script, but every so often I've had a few rough ideas for certain scenes. I don't know if they will be any good, but I can gather my ideas and type them up here if it's helpful!
  • edited December 2009
    I have Google Wave... That's always a good way. I can send you all invites...
  • edited December 2009
    Well, the thing is, together with four other Star Trek fanatics (one of them being [Hunter.Wolf]) we created a radio drama inspired by Majus' ST birthday flash movie trilogy. Production took us about 2 1/2 months but it really was a blast (and in addition to that, freaking hilarious!), plus it couldn't have been any more comfortable than setting up that pretty little group conversation and just expressing and talking out ideas, and then noting them down. Best thing about this is that you really grow close and you can imagine that communication between buddies works way too good to be true. :D

    I'm not an official writer either, but I'm kind of creative. Furthermore, having just finished Chapter 4 of Tales, I'm super-inspired and full of ideas too! :3

    If it helps, I could already set up a script on GD and share it with you.

    edit: @Tpravetz, what's the difference between Docs and Wave? (Haven't seen that one yet.)

    GD?

    I don't know what Docs is, but Wave is an invite only (as it is in its testing) room, where we can share work instantly, talk to each other, and edit one an others posts, so we can show our ideas and build off each others. I'm new to it, but I'm using it with StLouisRibs to make a game review site, and I really like it...
  • edited December 2009
    GD is just short for Google Docs :3
    Using Docs, you invite someone via their eMail address and give them permission to review or even edit your documents. So you can't really talk directly to each other, but if we used Skype it might be easier to communicate either way, I guess...
    After all, working on the script itself it'd prove really useful.

    edit: Oh, and as far as I know this'll be a flashfilm series? I found out that if you try to get PaintChat to work you won't succeed unless all participants work with either Mac or Windows. There IS, in fact, a tool that works for both but it's pretty simple, don't know if that's good enough for this project.
  • edited December 2009
    I don't have Skype, nor any way of using it...
  • edited December 2009
    You don't? Might come in handy though, I suggest you download and install it ;)
  • edited December 2009
    I don't have a mic nor a camera though...
  • edited December 2009
    Chat function works fine too for now. :D

    (I don't think we should spoil the board with too much information on what's going on, should we?)
  • edited December 2009
    Personally, I recommend Wave. I really like it, and I don't have to download anything...
  • edited December 2009
    Well, okay then. Got a link or something? Or do you need my mail address for that invitation thing? (I have to apologize, but I've never before heard of Google Wave...)
  • edited December 2009
    I have to email you an invitation... So if anyone wants to PM their email... I apologize, I only have eight invites, but you guys can invite eachother.
  • edited December 2009
    Just PM me your addresses, I've got 25 invites to wave. It's a lot like Docs, but it's a lot more user friendly. Plus, you can see the changees people make, and even rewind it back to see the original draft!
