adopt_a_muse's Journal

tech_smith @ 11:46pm: Forge up for adoption
Due to there being far too much uni work, and far too little time for anything else, I'm afraid I'll have to put Forge up for adoption. I don't think I've been giving his journal the time it deserves.
His journal goes with him, but may he be loved and snuggled muchly.

john_h_holliday @ 7:20pm: Doc Holliday Up For Adoption
Due to personal schedule conflicts, I am unable to continue writing for Doc Holliday in theatrical_muse. Please comment if you are interested in adopting him, or you may contact me at willgrizz at gmail dot com.

strangemuses @ 8:11pm: ADMIN: - All TM members please read
We are adding a new rule to the TM community that affects all members in all fandoms. This rule is going into effect today.

Since the beginning of theatrical_muse, we've had some members who join but then never participate in the community writing challenges, or who only participate when they have been warned that their muse will be dropped from the community due to their non-participation. In some of these cases, non-participating members have been holding onto muses that have been waitlisted by other writers. The member will go weeks without participating, get warned, post once, and go back to not participating until the next time the moderator emails them. In the meantime, the muse may continue to be waitlisted by one/more other writers.

In the past, there has been no formal limit on the number of times that a person could be warned about failing to participate in the community, then post once and then stop participating again until the moderator emails them again.

As of now, theatrical_muse is implementing a '3 strikes' rule. If a member has been warned about their inactivity twice in the past, the 3rd time that the moderator discovers that the muse is inactive, the muse will be dropped permanently from the community with no further warnings from the moderator. This is true whether or not the muse is waitlisted. The writer will not be allowed to reinstate that muse in the community.

The only way to keep a muse that has received multiple notices about non-participation will be for the writer to contact the moderator(s) and request a hiatus with a valid hiatus reason and a defined time-frame for the hiatus. Once that hiatus is up, the member must post something that week and then participate regularly per the community rules or the muse will be removed. Members on hiatus do not get to skip an additional 3-4 challenges and then get warned again by a moderator. This is true whether or not the muse is waitlisted.

If a muse is dropped and there is a waitlist, the muse will be offered to the next person on the waitlist. If there is no waitlist, the muse will simply be made available to the next person who requests it.

This rule is going into effect now, and it will be retroactive as of the next time that the moderators check their fandoms. If members have been warned at least twice about inactivity in the past, the next time the moderators check their fandoms, if the muse is inactive, it will be removed, unless the member contacts the moderator first with a hiatus request.

Members who have already received what may be their 3rd+ warning up through today should consider those warnings to be their final notice. If you aren't sure about the status of your muse, email the moderator in charge of your fandom.

If anyone has been waitlisted for a muse that appears to be inactive, they should contact the moderator and/or me directly to inquire about the status of the muse. Always bear in mind that it is possible that the writer may have been granted a hiatus, so it may only appear that a muse is inactive.

Reminder: Muses are granted on a first-come/first-served basis:
The first person to request a muse gets the muse. It does not matter if the writer is a long-time member of the community or a newbie. Moderators record waitlist requests in the chronological order in which they receive the requests.

In popular fandoms, it is common for more than one person to request the same muse at the same time. (In the fandoms that I personally moderate, the record is currently 4 people simultaneously requesting the same muse on the say day, two of them within minutes of each other.) Before members go through the trouble of creating a journal for a new muse, please remember that there may be someone ahead of you in the queue for that muse. It is easier to email the moderator first with all of the necessary details, and then create the journal after the moderator has replied.

If anyone has any questions about this rule, please ask them here or email me at saraqael2000 at yahoo dot com.

truthand @ 4:35pm: Connor MacManus of The Boondock Saints is now up for adoption. The journal is not.

gareth_keenan01 @ 10:30pm: Hey, if no one wants Captain Barbossa from Pirates of the Carribean, I'll be more than willing to take him!!

And if anyone wants Tumnus, from Narnia, he's available!

greyblood @ 10:49pm: :(
Fenrir Greyback of the Harry Potter fandom is now up for adoption. The journal goes with him.

facelorran @ 12:53am: Yoda
lil_green_troll is up for adoption. Contact the TM Mod for Star Wars to get permission to take over the muse, and then you can e-mail me at wraithloran @ aol dot com for the journal codes.

ladyevenstar04 @ 1:12am: OOC: Open to Adoption
I would like to place this muse up for adoption as I no longer feel inspired to really write for Arwen....

If you want to adopt her, you will need to contact the TM mods and create a new journal for her as I want to keep the one I made for her.

Is there any place else I need to make this post?

strangemuses @ 3:12pm: Misc. TV muse "Gonzo" from The Muppet Show up for adoption
The muse journal bluenosedweirdo Gonzo from The Muppet Show is available for adoption. Email the Misc. TV moderator (that would be *me*) for the password: saraqael2000 at yahoo dot com.

betareject @ 5:06pm: legate_damar Up for adoption.
Due to lack of time and fellow DS9 muses to rp with I've decided it's time I bow out as legate_damar. It's been great fun but I'm finding it increasingly difficult to keep up with the weekly questions and with lack of action going on in the DS9 universe here, it just seems it's best i toss in the old hat and move on.

However I am still keeping the journal active and should anyone wish to rp with my muse by all means feel free to do so =D

col_kira_nerys @ 5:57pm: Departing, Sadly
I just can't keep up and haven't done so properly in months...so much as it pains me, I am putting the character of Kira Nerys up for adoption in theatrical_muse. I will be keeping this journal but am removing myself from the community. It's been great fun.

sotto_voice @ 11:28pm: I can hardly even believe I'm going to do this. I'm the mun for both Reno of the Turks (pass_the_vodka) and Rude of the Turks (no_subtlety), from the videogame Final Fantasy VII. I adore them both, but I've been having trouble with my schedule lately, and it's not fair for me to just sit on them when I don't have a good chunk of time to devote to writing. They're from a fairly obscure fandom, but I'm hoping that someone will take at least one of them and give him a good home! Their journals are not up for grabs and will be deleted. Thanks.

betareject @ 5:28pm: //cross-post from Theatrical_fen - passing the torch Adama muse now adopted!
Hello I just wanted to drop a note to say that admiral_adama journal is now under the care of karihan. I will no longer be rping him as she will be taking over my muse effective immediately =)

sanguinepen @ 7:50pm: Character LJs up for Adoption
_mrs_smith_ from Mr. & Mrs. Smith - made the LJ, and then lost the inspiration for her.
babe_o_steel Supergirl - made for a game that didn't make it off the starting line.
chesires_kiss Chesire - DC Comics
gothams_oracle Oracle - DC Comics - Barbara Gordon


Email me if you'd like them, and I'll give you the password.

betareject @ 12:07am: Commander Adama up for adoption
I would like to place the muse admiral_adama (Battlestar Gallactica 2003) up for adoption. Unfortunately I no longer have the time to upkeep with the weekly questions due to RL so I've decided it's best i offer up this muse so that someone with more time and energy can take him up and bring him to life ^__^

Though his journal will still be active it will no longer be a part of TM so to those who do rp as BSG muses, if you are ever interested in rping with said muse I'm still up for it that is if you don't mind my slow replies ;.;

All the same it's been a blast thanks so much! =D

want_take_havex @ 7:58am: Faith of Buffy up for adoption.
Yeah, you heard it right.

Holy shit I can't believe I'm doing this... but God I have to. You can have the journal or I'll just delete it. Someone please take good care of my 'baby'. I absolutely love Faith. And I just would like to talk to the person that gets her once at least so I know she's in good hands. I'm sure you'll rock if you get her. And I apologize deeply. I love you all,

Kate.

_ohgreatone @ 12:54am: I hate to do this, but I've been having severe brainfarts where my muses are concerned. I don't feel that I've been playing them as "in character" and it's really just a shame on them and their creators to keep butchering them and then not posting when they refuse to speak to me.

Luke Skywalker of Star Wars (not_a_farmboy) is now open. He's retired. He's done. I will be keeping the journal however. So, if you want him, please create your own journal.

Also, the character of Todd Manning of the soap opera One Life to Live (_toddmanning) is up for adoption. I will also be keeping the journal for him.

wolf_at_sunset @ 12:19pm: Retiring Navarre
Hi all,

Just wanted to give any interested muns a heads-up that I'm retiring my pup, Etienne Navarre of Ladyhawke. I love this character, but have done a truly shameful job of answering the challenges regularly. It's high-time I gave someone else a chance at him. I will, however, be holding onto Navarre's journal (can't help myself).

Thanks!

urbandruid @ 1:08pm: Mace Windu (Star Wars)
I've really been struggling with this, but I decided it was time to retire masterwindu. I like this muse a lot, and writing him was a lot of fun, but it's also really hard. I can't seem to get a grip on him the way I have with my other muses, and with Revenge of the Sith just having come out last week, I figure there has to be some fan out there who's dying to write this guy, and it's not fair for me to hang onto him. If the SW fandom weren't exploding right now thanks to the movie, I might try the next couple topics and see what happens, but as it is I think this is the best thing.

Thanks to everyone who made him feel welcome, confused him, or drove him slightly nuts, especially the muns of Obi-Wan and Anakin. It was fun. :)

His journal comes with me, so a new mun would need to create a new one.

finishedlast @ 9:10pm: Zoe from Firefly is not speaking to me.
If there is someone who would like to have Zoe, please contact me. I would be happy to send her to a good home.

mythros @ 6:59pm: Up for adoption
Maedhros, from the Silmarillion, is up for adoption. He's housetrained, and (relatively) well behaved.

This journal goes with the character if the new player wishes to use it, please contact the LOTR mod for the password. All previous TM challenges that I've done will stay in the journal, feel free to keep, delete or change as you wish.

Also up for adoption is his brother Maglor, who has not spoken to me for months, however in his case I'm keeping the journal.

Thanks for a great year. :)

vampry @ 10:54am: Kosh
It is with deep regret that I retire Kosh from TM. The last few challenges have been difficult for him and therefore he has not spoken to me about it. (You try to get a Vorlon to talk when he's not ready.) Plus, he is a being of few words. His journal alien_oracle is available if anyone is interested in picking him up.

I am currently waiting on approval for a new muse though so, hopefully, I will not have to be out of TM too long.

Thank you.

justin_crowe @ 11:20pm: Justin Crowe available
I have removed my journal from Theatrical Muse. I hated the second season and lost my interest in this muse. I am keeping the journal.

best_blue_eyes @ 9:16am: Boone and Shannon from Lost have been retired and are once again up for adoption in [Bad username: theatrical_muse"]. I'll be keeping the journals I maintained for them.

guardian_leo @ 11:11pm: A Note
It is with great sadness and much regret, I give up Leo Wyatt from Charmed.

He has stopped talking to me and I hope he can find a home with another.

The journal will not be coming with the pup, I'm far too attached.

Thanks for allowing me to explore the inner workings of Leo Wyatt's mind but now is the right time to give him up.
