It needs some remaking, yeah... I'm considering putting some work into it and all that though... I think part of our issue was starting before we REALLY had members... A couple people I brought in were a bit more into Prince of Tennis than Final Fantasy, so I don't think they were too dedicated... I think we (as mod-types) needed to just give more of a reason to post week to week... I'll talk to you about some of my ideas and see whatcha think.

Okay, so today got a bit of planning done, which kinda sucks for ya'll, cuz there isn't any new content yet, but I have new ideas about a bunch of things that I'll be working on progressively over the next week or so (and beyond).
I'm far enough into the new school quarter that I already know how this quarter will go. It'll involve me being constantly busy, and yet, I think if I really do some kickass time management, I should still have plenty of time to balance everything in my life, one such thing being the website.
It's been a horrible dry-spell at The Goat Pen, and that's just gotta stop... This might be one of the worst non-posting sections in a long time... I hate that. But hey, on the bright side, I only have 9 weeks until this quarter ends, then 5 weeks of summer school, and then, I'll be done with college! Woo! That means a bit of job hunting and I'll be working, which means TONS of freetime... But that's in like, 15-17 weeks (just estimating...). Damn, I can't wait.
I'll be doing the progressive update thing this week. Hopefully a lot of new content will open up, and hopefully Mallboro will have a full-on revival! Could be awesome, ya never know.....

That's all well and good...could you all do me a small favor? Could you just click on this link? You'll probably find the site enticing, but if you do nothing more than wait for it to load and then close the window, that's fine too... downloads.khinsider.com/?u=94814Thanks a ton!

*sigh* Everything hit a snag. I'm largely working on the Mallboro revival at the moment, but that got sidetracked by school, like always... I'm not happy 'bout it either. I have a paper due Monday, and a midterm Wednesday for a class I only know maybe half of, but I also got bad news last week. You know that program I had that I "finished"? The teacher didn't like that it didn't work, so he's making me do a shorter, easier version of the program before I can actually get the Incomplete on my grade changed to an actual grade... Kinda blows. A lot. I'm still gonna try to get ANYTHING done in the next few days, but as of now it ain't much...
All that aside, mallboro is getting pretty close to re-opening, so if you'd like to play (which you'll probably have to base your decision largely on the new, more lax rules), start thinking who you might play. Up to three characters... I'll try to have the completed rules up on or before Tuesday.

Well, best of luck with all that...
Also, Happy Birthday to KD! (wherever you are...)

I know, it's very sad.... I only have one thing to update at the moment, and that's my review of Final Fantasy 3, so I was gonna wait until I did more than that. Lately I've had very little free time and that'll probably continue for a few days (midterms... joy), and my free time has gone to working on Mallboro. Speaking of Mallboro, the rules are ready to read! If some of ya wouldn't mind looking them over and seeing if they're clear, that'd be awesome. I wanna make sure it's all understandable before I start opening it up to the public. Also, it isn't QUITE done yet... I still need to finish a couple sections, but once those are done and if I get a thumbs up from you guys, I'll start the community up! And as the bonus for being established TGP Forumites, y'all can sign up now! I know not everything is finished, but you guys can get top priority for what characters you want to play. I don't think grabbing up players will be too much of a battle (I don't think Final Fantasy is a huge role-playing community online), but still! Priority! mallboro.goatpen.org if you're interested! *tempt tempt* ........I suppose I'll put up the FF3 review at some point... It's been done for about a week now, but I forgot to update at first, and when I remembered (yesterday) I decided I would just wait the one more day to make an even two months. Go OCD!

Everything is now officially done for Mallboro. There might be some tweaks needed, but if you're thinking of playing, then sign up and get started! If you're not sure how to start, just ask and I'll hook you up. It really won't take up huge amounts of your time to play, so if you can spare saaay, 10 minutes a week or so, then that'd be plenty. Hope to see some of ya signing up!

I'm joining! (Of course. I'm friggin' Vice Mod, after all)
For those of you unfamiliar with RP's, it's basically the same thing as SOE, only with a couple more rules and a few more options. If it's just me and Bob playing, then it'll get boring FAST, so we gotta get as many people as possible into this! If we get off to a good start then it'll be awesome. If we get off to a bad start then it'll suck!
Do your civic duty! Join Mallboro!

Well so far Fleck's picked up Squall (FF8), Ormi (FFX-2), and Orlandu (FF Tactics), and well, that's all. So there's a giant pool of people still out and about. I'm still thinking of who I'll pick up too I should be updating the site tonight to say that those three characters are taken and where they're working and whatnot. It's midterms this week, so everything is slightly behind schedule...

I figured you wouldn't want to.
More curious about nobodyspecial. I heard from Fleck, I heard from Wyvern (he's playing Zorn, Thorn, and Blank, I haven't updated the page yet and I'll do so soon), but I haven't heard much of anything from you. You gonna play?
