Finding someone who has a similar idea to one you desperately want to play. Then fretting after sending the invitation that something in your various writings and threads will turn them off.

If you're searching the lines for a point, well you've probably missed it; there was never anything there in the first place.

When you are a hair, just a veritable hair away from being completely caught up with all of your roleplays everywhere, when you feel you can take that one solid breath of accomplishment of having answered all of your partners...

... and your eyes start to go on you because you've been staring at the screen for far, far too long.

OH!!! You are all caught up, thinking to relax and you are inundated with a flood of new plot bunnies!! You really can't take on a few more rps....can you?

#Elliquiyproblems
I have gone off in search of myself. If I should get back before I return, please keep me here.

When, after a year, you finally have an idea for a 1:1 and you are ready to take it in instead of staying just with group games... and then you get zero interest in it. Way to kill a muse.

That would be pretty much the third Tuesday of every month...




Commenting on someone else's post/comment/picture in a Finders & Seekers thread... only to realize that you've commented to the wrong person...

Wanting to check to see if that first, sweet post in your new game has gone up yet- but you're away from home and your phone battery has bitten it.

#ElliquiyProblems
Instead of obsessing on the person you want to be, focus on who you DON'T want to be. It's much easier to not do certain things than to break your head on some ideal of yourself.

When the dust settles, you may find out you've become who you were supposed to be all along.

I'm six foot, 240 lbs, and I work in a martial arts school. "Intimidating" in the sparring ring or in a back alley is fine. "Intimidating" here, in a place where folks are trying to build a community and be friendly, approachable, and conscientious of one another? Not so much.





I know it's come up before, from lots of different corners, but it remains the same: the temptation to take just one more story... RPs are like popcorn for some of us, I think. We can't stop at just one.

If you ask why they call you "intimidating", it will often be about "writing a lot", or "long paragraphs", or your spelling, or things like that. Again, BTDT.

I'm 5'6 and clinging to my third digit.  Me being 'intimidating' in the real world is hysterical (and has happened - he was about your size and ex-military.  Not sure how that worked.)

OT:  Wishing you could try half of the yummies talked about in the SB, but your family is too picky to give them a chance.

*Laughing at myself* Being old enough and un-hip enough that you have to look up what things like "BTDT" mean...

Novak

really enjoying being on Elliquiy and starting a story you are really interested in and then real life kicks into overdrive and before you know it you've been gone a lot longer than you anticipated.  #ElliquiyProblems

Caedy

When you have replies waiting, but your muse is fixated, focused on one particular story idea and you keep refreshing your bookmarks looking for that new post but it hasn't come yet.  #ElliquiyProblems

P.S. I had to look up BTDT just to make sure I actually knew what it meant...yeah, it's been that kind of day.

Check, check, and check. Had all of those *laughs*

Also had the "Your request thread is REALLY long" for the first time recently.

Ralhend

Its quite addictive, and when indulged upon it sometimes makes you hallucinate.

Right now I think my computer screen is mumbling something to me, its sounds something along the lines of "go to bed Jackass... you have work in the morning."

Finding someone I may be compatible with only to see that their posting requirements are a great deal faster than I can post.

That's fun. I've also had it recently for the first time. And yes it is! Because when it wasn't I kept getting VERY  off-topic suggestions... My cowriters can testify that I'm cool and easy to get along with :)
