Yeah... really do. Wrote the whole thing and it timed out so... yeah, that was a waste of time. OK, done venting. Time for bed.
I forgot how much I hate RP boards

I spoil things.
Yep. Happened to me like 12 times. Just remember to copy the whole thing before you post it and if you time out you can always log back in and then repaste what youy wrote. Learned that the hard way...

Yep - Lesson learned. Frustrating because I had appropriate shout outs, I think a good opening promo to intro Deac to a new crowd and cover the "where has he been" question. And I hate rewriting something I've already done.

D'oh!
I actually never finish an RP usually in one sitting unless it's a really quick response. So, I end up emailing myself to save it. hehehe

There's a plug in for firefox that will save forms that you write in case something like that happens again. I hardly use it but it's a life saver in times like this. It's called Lazarus Form Recovery. Check it out.

Where's my money, Chad?
My M.O. is usually to write the RP in Microsoft word, and post when it's ready. I used to write them in the form box, but I learned my lesson the hard way. Now I've got most of my RPs saved to word.

Yeah... write 'em in Word and save, save, save. lost far too much stuff back in the day from doing otherwise.

I've saved every roleplay I've ever written.
Geocities ate the vast majority of them.
I'm using google docs now.

Let me put it this way.
DEF uses it to write shows.
There's nothing like seeing five other people in a doc working on it when it's due out soon.
Also there's a chatroom on the side.
Google Docs is a god-send for eWrestling.

I got it posted. I wouldn't call it my best ever, nor as good as my first draft, but it'll work to get things started which in the end was all I wanted to accomplish. Let's play!
