That was a riveting conversation. I do agree with Yamagi, with so many opinionated people it's going to get hard for them to do anything, hopefully they'll manage to do something before something happens to them...
I do want to chime in on something I saw, remember that a person and their character aren't the same thing. There is a difference and lets do our best to keep that in mind. Just because a character sees something a certain way doesn't mean they're wrong to do so. They don't have the kind of omniscience that we, as RPers, have when it comes to how other character's mindsets, reasonings, etc., so don't knock characters over that. These characters know very little about the others (unless, of course, they knew each other prior to this meeting) so don't assume that they should be able to understand how and why your character is feeling, thinking or why they're doing the actions that they are. I'm sure we all know this but sometimes we all need a refresher.
Aques Keus - Check should know that not everyone in the room is a civilian considering he was invited to a military meeting for members that are top-ranking individuals in their field to discuss war. I get that he doesn't pay attention much to news and things, but the chance that he hasn't heard of any of these people is very slim.

Ozymandias - Baratheon, eh? What a lovely surname. Allison seems delightful. I think she'll definitely bring something to the table, especially for the current predicament they're in. Heh, I'm loving all the tidbits about Summer Grove! It's great because that's how I imagine people talking about it. Don't worry about the RP Sample, I think it's fine. Gives me enough of an insight into her personality and that's all I want. 5th best sniper? Wow, she's good, can't wait to see that in action. Lovely SU, so I'm going to say that you're Accepted and with that say that you can either write your first post like everyone else's or you can just start from Allison waking up (late, if you want) since we've kind of moved passed that.
CarefulWetPaint - That background color is absolutely blinding when you have a dark skin. That name tho, how original and thought provoking. Okay, homeboy has a lot of knives... I hope he doesn't cut himself a lot dealing with that. I'm interested in what Mayte is going to think of all these people he's stuck with. Will he stay with them? Or leave them all behind? Whoa, your RP Sample though, that's a good way to have gone about it. Well, since you've done the first half of the first post you might as well put it in your post when you post it as some people don't really read SUs, especially the RP Samples. On to what you really want to hear, denieddenieddenied, (I guess) you're Accepted. Like I said earlier, free feel to have Mayte wake up late or have him been awake the whole time and just watching how everything unfolded. It's ultimately your choice.
