If its still going I'll hop on and try to add someone.....
Time passes by meaninglessly.
I realised when I tried to figure out what happened...
The laughter has faded into the distance.
I can no longer hear them
Tears are flowing...
I would had quickly discarded this intolerable tomorrow,
if I knew that the future was going to end up like this.
I’m hiding alone in a place where I can’t hear anything.
Even if I understand the reason behind the tears of this grim world.
Even if I understand the reason behind the countless irrationality of the world.
I probably will never figure out the meaning
behind spending my days like this.
Time presses on...
[I recommend that you read the previous Kane summaries to understand his current situation. Since it is on the last page, I have embedded it in this quote.]
After taking his leave from the conversation with Dougie McGregor at the Kortz Center, Kane went to visit cancer suffering Aunt Erin's house as promised to check up on how she's doing. Aware that she is too weak to open the door for Kane, he knocked in a unique way that would allow her to recognise that Kane is at the door before going in. Entering the house, he noticed a substantial pile of letters all addressed to Aunt Erin at his feet. Taking a quick browse, he spotted a few utility bill letters that he will need to help Aunt Erin to pay but he places the letters aside for later. Smelling something odd in the air, he also briefly visited the kitchen to throw away anything that has already expired and check for items nearing expiration. Mentally noting the items that are almost out of date, which he will use in a dish for Aunt Erin to eat, Kane heads upstairs and heads towards Aunt Erin's bedroom. He opens the door, and sees Aunt Erin lying in bed with a very noticeable blood stain on the blanket. Shaking vigorously and without realising, he sprints closer to the bed and inadvertently sees everything: Aunt Erin's eyes were still wide open, possibly from the moment of death, but had sunken into her skull. Her skin was a green-blue colour instead of the pearl white skin Kane was so used to see, and huge blisters of skin had formed (some of which had already bursted open). Scanning down the body, Kane notices a familiar object thrusted into where her chest would be. Still trembling, he takes it out and identifies it as a knife and its blade had already been stained by Aunt Erin's blood. His brain attempts to crank into gear to figure out how this could have all happened, then Kane notices the window to the room. Shattered. Kane barely manages to call 911, before he passes out from trauma.
...
Kane is lying on his bed, still dazed. But a buzz to his apartment snapped him out of his reverie. Wondering who on earth would want to visit him at this time, he struggles out of bed and checks on the door. It turns out to be Dougie McGregor, the person he was talking to at the Kortz Center, who wanted to catch up with Kane. Not wanting to turn down the request, Kane invites him in, gets him a drink and sits down with him to have a chat. There, Kane tells Dougie that his Auntie had been murdered with Dougie offering consultation for Kane. Having already avenged for his sister, who fortunately survived the attack, Dougie suggests that Kane avenges for his auntie. Of course, much preparation must be done as this is a high risk task. Kane has never used a gun before and Dougie mentions that Kane is in no form to handle the recoils on them. Kane also suggests that they should contact Marcello as he seemed to know about guns, having seen him use it the time at the pier. They manage to get hold of him, and they arrange a meeting for preparations...
It was pretty much a failed chat.Uhm... anyone here? I got an invite to the chat but nobody is in it...
Past lobbies have actually been pretty successful.If the lobby goes up, ill go on GTA, but given previous lobby records, ill stay on GT6 because its looking like there wont be one, again...

I'm aware that a good amount of events never happen, but actually the last two or three have been pretty much packed. I say in the OP that "If there is something in the way, I'm not going to put Grand Theft Auto first", and that's 100% true. Even if it may not seem too important to other people, or if it's something that can probably wait 'till another time, I will still push back the lobbies, or not host them all together, until the real-life situation is handled. I have also apologized for this in the past, but apologies can only go so far and I will still have to avoid hosting a lobby for whatever reason at whatever time.
I would love to have someone to back me up on events, but I'll be honest, it's quite the pain in the ass. You have to add everyone, then create a chat room, then invite the people to the chat, then start up a GTA lobby, then invite them to that, and then keep up with who comes online so they get invited too instead of being left out. I feel bad when I can't host events, and I'd be so grateful if someone would take up that roll, but I don't see that happening.I respect that, i agree that real life should come before video games, but there are some who look forward to a good chilled out RP event after a hard day etc, so i think there should be a backup host. Now i have heard you tried that before, but from what i understand that went into multiple lobbies, im not suggesting that im just saying the should be someone who can open the lobby up before you get there or if you cant get on at all.

You would? I'd have to count on you to help me out with rooms when I'm running late or I can't make it. I'm sure you already have a lot of the members added already. You sure you'd do it? I'd be very thankful.I'd be perfectly happy to help out if it's needed.

Perhaps both? Sometimes I cannot gain access to GTP, so I won't always give everyone a heads up. About an hour after scheduled time sounds like a good time to set up a lobby, long as there is enough people. Thanks you!So should I only make a room when you specifically say in advance 'I'll be late/unavailable' or should I make one if it's been, say, an hour since the specified time and there are enough people online?
Don't worry. Before joining I also had zero RP experience and at the time I was also in the same situation as you - "Should I join? But I don't even have any RP experience...". I'll try to help out as much as I can, but please do ask in the thread if there's something you don't understand. I'm sure other members and the host @Pinkintron can help you out too.Trying to figure out if i might join or not... Never done this before
