Second Post/ Chat room

Hey guys, good news, this isn't the only spot where we can talk now!  In case you haven't already seen it, Cosmogyral already set up a chat room for team Hermes on irc.mibbit.net under the name #teamhermes.  I'll difently be dropping by there off and on to see if there's any activity, and I suspect that as the game gets more players and gets more complicated it will be even more convient of a format than this blog for us.

Any who, on to the post:

Basic Summary:
Malcom wakes up and gets ready for his job at the bank.  We witness his daily routine, see find out he is intrested in several fandoms, and we observe some of the results of our meddeling in his life.  All in all, a short post, just giving us a minimal amount of insight into his life.

My Observations:
It seems like this post was really made just to show how much control we have over the story, it seems like almost ever comment was fulfilled, in some way or another, except for ones that conflicted with each other.  Some of the suggestions were even quoted directly.  The comment at the end seemed to be prompting us for more dramatic input next time.

My Plans:
Like I said above, it might be intresting to provide more dynamic input and commands, Malcom seems willing to do whatever we suggest, so long as he is capable of it. I'm almost thinking that it might be a good idea to put out several diffrent conflictaory comments, just to see which ones will be chosen.  As for specific stuff, I haven't thought up anything suitable, yet, what do you guys think?

Team Hermes/ First Post/ General Objectives

Hello everyone, I'm FC.  If you know me from elsewhere, than I'm FreedomCaged in those parts, but that doesn't really matter to the game at hand.  Anyways, If you're here, it's probably because you got my e-mail.  I'm not an avatar, and this blog isn't a part of the game, so you don't need to hang around if you don't want to.  I'm just another player like you guys, and just because I'm used to it, I feel like the blog layout is a better way to go about this than chain e-mails.  Basiclly, I made this blog as a place for us (Team Hermes) to talk about the posts and the game, and find ways to collaborate and stratagize before we post on each update.  I think haveing a place like this to interact will help us stay strong and organized.  

I'm going to leave this blog as open for a little while, but later I'm going to close it to a members only blog, so that Team Mercury can't spy on all of our plans and such, so you'll probably want to click the "follow blog" button right away after you read this.  I may also add some more authors, I haven't decided yet, but really all of the nessecary communication should be able to happen in the comments section.  My plan is to follow each update on Herme's blog with a corresponding post here, summarizing what happened and then opening the floor to plans and suggestions on how we are going to interact with Malcom (or whoever might replace him, assuming that's possible).  Any member of team Hermes is, of course, welcome to comment here and talk about what they think should be done.  Also, any member of team Hermes who does not agree with the majority plan or direction is free to go about with there own plans.  Basiclly, as long as you are a member of team Hermes you won't be blocked or moderated so long as don't personally attack or try to troll any of the other members, lets keep it poilite as possible.

Anyways, on to the post.

Basic Summary:

We learn a little about the man whose life we are going to be influncing, Malcom.  He is basiclly a geek, kind of a loser, though he's evidently good at faking conversations.  We don't know what his job is, which means we may be able to pick it for him later.  The post is short, and it ends with him waking up and a prompting from the great Hermes himself to provide direction for Malcom.

My plans:

I've already posted, directing him towards getting ready for the day ahead of him.

General Observations:

It's really to early in the game to glean a whole lot from this post.  Basiclly all we know is that we're supposed to direct Malcom, though to what degree, and how much effect our comments will have is still unkown.  I'm of the opinion we take it slow, until we can figure out where we're headed, how much control we have, and what those mysterious points are for.

Questions? Comments? Plans? Theories? Ideas? The rest is up to you guys, what do you think so far?
