yes

they may be subject to change however. I need to contact the admin to see if the time's are ok. They were used last year, so i think they will be.

Don't mind me as I copy the list and paste it in Dark Room. ^^

*YEAAAAAAAH FOR LISTS*

Btw, must the list of helpers be PMed to you too? And how do we solve the helpers problem?

I just need the list of hosts & co-hosts, RP names are not a must. As for the RP problem, i'm going to search the RP forum and see if i can get anyone interested. I would suggest everyone try that ^^

I have a whole guild of literate RP people I can ask. As for the manga, I think I could help work on it. Like cleaning it up and polishing the colors (if any). I would help draw but my scanner's down right now.

i could probly help with the manga i could edit and change sketches into lineart or colouring but the actual writing of the story i cant do since i've never made comics with frames or comics in general. but if it just turning sketches into lineart that can be done fairly quickly per page. probly an hour and a half max.

Angel is working on the wording for the Manga.

I have a girl interested in drawing it, hoever I think she just does it by hand. I will have more information and sketches from her this weekend.

If this is true, we might need it transformed into lineart, or colored depending on what we have time to do.

I've been wanting to speak directly to you Bliss, but I seem to be constantly missing you. I don't mean to drop this bomb on you, but my hands are tied with the room of wisdom of arts. Upon getting my account back its stripped of items, money, and even friends/contacts. I'm also very limited on time. There really isn't much I can do right now to help this project. My suggestion at this point would be to drop that room completely to allow focus on the other rooms. If dropping it is out of the question then it will need someone very determined and creative to get it going.

On a side note, I do tend to have a bit more free time on weekends, so I might be able to act as a helper of some sort during the ball. Can also do as I did last year of reviewing the rooms if you need an extra hand with that.

it's ok envy i totally understand.

I think it would be best to maybe leave the room as is,(scrap it) and put the character's in another active room. Why i suggest this is because we are really limited on help this year, and i don't believe that we will be able to spread the resources more thin then they already are.

I would love it if you still would like to help in your spare time. I have missed you alot ^^ <3

any word if you will be getting anything back? sad

Thanks for being so understanding, I wish there was more I could do about the room/ball. As for the account, I don't really know whats going on. From the last PM I received it seemed as though there is some serious communication issue going on. I almost get the impression they think they have returned my items-- trust me when I say, thats not the case. At least not with items of any value if you know what I mean. I just hope I find out one way or another very soon so I can stop logging in so much in hopes of a response only to become even more disappointed. This whole experience makes coming on Gaia very depressing. I don't have the heart nor the time to truly start over. It amazes me those who have. I'm still trying to be optimistic, but that is fading faster and faster as each day goes by. lol.

But, more back on topic.. despite the hacker deleting a lot of my recent PMs, which had some contacts from artists who were potentially going to help with the ball-- I do remember that I was in contact with the Newbie Support Guild.. trying to recall the name of the vice I was talking to.. and when I talked to her she was very interested in trying to see what she and her guild could do to help us. Unfortunately its been a while since I talked to her to know if she would still have the same interest, but it couldn't hurt to see if that interest is still there.

If you want that name I can try to dig it up. I'm going to also try to wrack my brain to see if I can get in contact with artists who might be still willing to help out. I'm sorta out of touch with the ball needs right now as well as the community, so I'm a bit more limited.. but as the saying goes, the show must go on. I am sure we can pull this off.

awwe *hugs* I know everything will be ok. If you don't mind me asking, who are you in contact with in reguards to that?

Also it would be wonderful if you could do that! I hope that they are still interested. I know we still need alot of RP people for the room's as well as artists.

Right now i think all of the room's are not doing bad, however I am worried about the newsroom. They still have alot to catch up on.

I got a few more items back today. ^^ Getting my favorite hat inspired me to make an avatar. I hope they're still working on the rest. Went over to the NSTG guild and found the name of the person I was speaking with.

Ebony the Peacian -- she's a vice captain. I'll let you contact her so that you can better answer any questions she has. And let her know that I am sorry I had not spoke back with her sooner, but I had unfortunate circumstances preventing me from doing so.

Well I told you before things got all crazy that I'd color the manga. Trust me, it's for the best that I don't draw it..XD.
