Okay, this is basically how I envision the RP working. Post your general projection for what happens in your part of the arc. This is more of a guideline, to be honest, than a script. Deviations can and will happen, so be flexible.
I'll update my arc as it progresses.
For now:
STORY BEGINS - illicit copy of SBURB obtained - pester a friend about the game (Brittany, possibly) - shenanigans, including the allocation of specibi and modi - game is installed END OF ARC 1, PART 1.

Murray's Arc-
Set up ALL the Chekov's guns
- Just for kicks, claim to be uploading Sburb onto the Pirate Bay
- Be convinced to play Sburb instead of another game
- Install the game, helping the poor soul enter.
- ? ? ?
- Profit

Murray, no. We're trying to be more serious about this one, remember?

That is his serious face. Well, at least he's not the most important character anymore.
Past that. I wanna say, aren't our arcs combining? Twisted all up in each other?

Yes, they are. This is how we ensure that happens without creating a massive clusterfuck.

I'm grabbing the Timey Wimey ball and running with it like motherfuckin' Forrest Gump.

Yeah, my first arc is mostly irrelevant, though the idea of actually uploading it to the Pirate Bay was something I considered amusing.

I think we can allow some silliness, Homestuck is relentlessly light-hearted, remember? Aren't we basing it off of that? Heh. PERSONAL OPINION. NO1CURR~
(I'm at school, I'm in a weird mood, forgive me.)
My arc?
-Am pestered, apparently -Install game
That's all I have right now. I have a question. What are we keeping similar to the original? Besides being more serious, what other changes are there?

Our first arcs should feature a bit more 'goofing off' than the rest. One good reason for this: To show as much of our houses, and as much of our stuff as possible.
That way, when we get to our alchemy binges, we won't be introducing a tonne of new items, as most of it would have been seen earlier.

Point was made. I agree. HOWEVER there is a line that shouldn't be crossed... :/

This I do know. It's not necessarily 'silly goofing off', more 'not doing anything plot relevant goofing off'.

...See, that's kind of the problem. Goofing off is great. And it will be done. But we can't have someone use up their arc doing nothing plot relevant. Everyone has to work together to progress the story, or it'll end up lopsided.
