Newbie question....

Okay, this is probably covered somewhere else, but I absolutely cannot find it anywhere if it is. Are newly-accepted players allowed to jump right in whenever we get accepted? I remember a mention somewhere about there being an Intercom post introducing us before we're allowed to become active but I can't find it again.

And in the interest of not spamming the lounge with multiple posts...

Hiyas! *waves frantically* I play Harry Dresden from "The Dresden Files" (the novels, not the television series). My app showed up on the list of "Umm, what is this from? *confusion*" applications, so I don't know how many people here read Dresden. But if you don't you should for it is made of pure awesomeness. As for me, I generally answer to Sanity, but at least one person on here already knows me as Daisie/Dazed, so I'm flexible, really. "Hey you with the wizard!" works just fine.

I know him only from the TV show, from like 3 episodes XDD I play Kaido Kio ([livejournal.com profile] stalksperverts), nice to meet you!

Dayshift starts on Saturday, so it's probably up to you if you intro him now or then. I am not a mod, though, so don't take my word for it XDDD

Oh yeah, name's Ale :D

Also not a mod, but I think it's still possible to intro your character during nightshift. The intercom post you're looking for is over here (http://community.livejournal.com/damned/543907.html), but like Ale said, dayshift starts Saturday, so I don't know what you'll want to do. XD Also, should you choose to, [livejournal.com profile] damned_links is a godsend for finding out what rooms/halls have already been posted instead of having to go back through about two or three pages' worth of posts in the comm.

They usually put up polls before it starts for dayshift introductions, to figure out when everyone will be introduced provided they didn't during nightshift. They also usually put up an "introduce your new character here" post where we all get to flail over you guys. :3

Anyway, welcome to the game! My name's Alleria, and I ramble. XD Nice to meet you!

I'm a new player myself, but I asked the mods just to make sure before I threw Irene, my character, in. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

HARRY DRESDEN. *tackles*

[translation: Yes, I may be somewhat familiar with the series.]

I can't answer your question, but I can jump on the 'WELCOME' team! I've only ever seen a few episodes of the TV series, I'm afraid, but it does look good :) I'll certainly have to look the books up (as if I don't have a pile I still need to work through...)

I'm Bex though, hello :)

It looks like you've already been pointed to the intercom post, and it's been mentioned that NS ends this weekend, plus the intro post and the polls have been gone over, so I'll skip on repeating that and simply say...

The Dresden Files novels are made of win. :D

This reminds me that I really need to finish Dead Beat...

...I LOVE YOU.

XD I'm only on book two, but I LOVE the Dresden Files and very much look forward to seeing Harry around. Would he be interested in talking to a young goddess, a half-elf, or a slightly insane teenage girl with a bit of magic herself sometime soon? Skuld is probably the best choice, she's usually not b busy and she REALLY needs to talk to people more often. And Harry won't need to worry much about being believed after she mentions who she is!!

LOL! Hokuto would be thrilled to have a mentor, actually; she's such a social butterfly that THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH SHIFTS IN THE DAY, but she'll be free at least once tomorrow. ;-)

Until then, got plans for who'll introduce Harry to the insanity? Skuld wouldn't mind, and I kind of suck at making plans for her!.

Everything useful has already been said, so all I have to say is: holy crap, Harry Dresden! Novel-verse Harry, even. I have ridiculous amounts of love for that series. It needs to be April already.
