Hold on... since when did we pick YOU as time keeper, Blue...? And it could be a late lunch...
Come on... after all that happened, why is it still mid-day?!? It's already starting to get dark for the Tamers!!!

...Because no one else seems to be doing it at all and we have to for when we do things like sending Mr. Damon over to the us with Lilia and such and have them go back and forth between Japan and the US?
And if you don't want one person as an official timekeeper, then we as a group need to keep better track of it so that way there aren't any issues.
And I already told you why it'd only be past midday (And I gave allowance for it being as late as four). Unless you want the events in the states taking place at two in the morning, you can't bump that far forward. The earth doesn't work that way, man. And from what I've interpreted you guys are planning on something over there.

It just don't make sense!!
After 4...? Look... they had school! Then, all this stuff happened... it cannot be 1-4 hours past like that!!! That's just unbelieveable!
Anyway, the lunch thing came from you... could have been snack or dinner...

Regardless of what either of us thinks, let's put it this way: we've got MASSIVE continuity issues that are starting to pile up. Between switching between the US and Japan, and doing all this other stuff with all the battles and concentrating in one place then another rather than running them simultaneously, we've got a canon/time issue.
Let's back this up for a second, man, and think, alright? No need to get angry or jump to anyone's throat. I'd like to get it solved as much as you would, k?
Just sticking with facts:
This whole conflict takes place sometime in May/June 2012, right? And this takes place on Earth? That means that when it is 12PM, noon, in Japan, it is 10PM the previous day in New York, if my calculations are correct. So, techincally, the people in the US WOULD BE in the middle of the night, anyhow. So someone or something is WAY wonky in time. Say it was even seven PM in Japan on the Third Day. That means that it would be 5AM in the states on the Third Day, too.
What I think would be BEST would be to have some sort of compromise, where we skip to a certain time AHEAD in all threads, let things sit for a couple hours in that time period. Lets everyone and everything regroup. I can do the calculations for how much time took place in the DoDDW fairly easily, so that's not much an issue.
So. We COULD move to the Fourth Day in Japan, given that we make sure that New York, which is kind of underused at the moment, jumped a proper amount forward as well, and that the characters there got some sort of credit for doing something.

I disagree, I think keeping the timeline straight makes it simpler when we DO have to screw with such great distances. If we kept it straight to begin with, there wouldn't be any issues. Maybe in other RPs you ran there wasn't as disparate action going on over such great distances. I can't speak to that. I've run plenty of RPs, and keeping a straight timeline is simple if everyone can agree to it and the amount of time used. Doesn't 'suck the fun' out of anything, but that's my opinion; it looks as if we will have to agree to disagree on that one.
And sorry, man, I can't do anything about anyone else's post rate.
And I'm sorry that I try and explain everything in order to make sure that everything makes sense. I write novels for fun. That's just how I am.

Kelik, do you want to do the training, or do you want to skip it and do something else?

Up do you. We may end up repeating what we do in training, to be honest. XD

Right, because obviously we'll be the ones fighting the real things...
K, we'll skip. You mind doing some character building stuff?
And we'll obviously hand out some SP for training. You keeping track of your totals through this? Kaz should be getting up there.

Let's see...he got six for the train. One for that one training session. Two for that other one. He's at least got nine more so far.
