[Desolation] Desolation Discussion

Making the roll for the disease gave me an advancement!


Now I just have to go back to that list I posted in OOC here and choose something.


And Damn, for making my coolness under fire so I could do something, only to fail at reading the sitch.

If I presume too much here, just tell me.

Never. This is "emergent play". That's how it's supposed to play. Nice work.


Acutally, you're all really getting into it and creating some amazing stuff. I love it.


At least, I feel like you are...

Also, @Skrakes, @Grey, and @Cabin Girl Frixz, this discussion is all you guys for a moment. We keep seeing you guys split up. I'd like to see an interaction between you guys.

Well, any of you want to add anything for this conversation? I mean, I think we've gotten the point across, it's just a good RP opportunity at this point. If not, I'll tie up the scene and finish with Red Bean(@solyrflair).
 
Okay, a couple things.


First, I'm going to change the format to better suit Apocalypse World. We'll do a Chapter stat highlight in a Chapter Discussion thread. Then, in the Chapter Discussion thread, I'll tell you/we'll decide on which scenes to play next. This way we'll be breaking the Chapter into scenes that we can open and close as needed. Sometimes those scenes will flow naturally from one to next. Sometimes there will be a time gap to the next scene. Sometimes I'll ask where you want to go next. Sometimes I'll just place you. This means that some scenes will be taking place before, during, or after others that are currently taking place. You might be in several scenes at the same time.


This will also include the potential for flashbacks where we can establish further details, if need be.


The point is, this is no longer a linear game. I'll be making the scenes most likely at the start, but I'm sure we'll find as the game progresses and we draw to a close you guys will be calling for scenes more and more.


Second, Claire (@DreamingofRoses) will be joining us again in this next Chapter. I'm excited to have a Skinner back in the ranks. I've never seen one played, really. And another player to add a nice angle to the mayhem.


Last, I should have the new Chapter up tonight, in the new format no less. Looking forward to seeing what happens.
 
I thought it was a good idea, but I'm actually going to close the Chapter 5 OOC. I thought it would be good to have an OOC thread per Chapter, but it just adds to the complexity. All OOC will stay here instead. We'll highlight stats here per Chapter as well.


Sorry for the confusion.
 
Highlights for Chapter 5:

OK.


So I am apparently very tired and read Howl Itzahs as Howl Itzvahs for some reason, so 'Taber' came from a shortened version of Tabernacle because it's almost 1 here and I can't read.
 
I have no idea what a Itzvah is, but I can go with a group of ruling Tabers. Sounds almost like a Russian noble title.


I still think its interesting that Red Bean spurts these bits of poetry, and no one says anything about it.
 
You mean spurting random lines of poetry and songs is supposed to be abnormal?


Well, boo to normal then.


And this game amazes me since it was just a throw-away remark at the beginning of the first chapter that led to the genesis of the Howl Itzahs. It's so amazingly random and silly and awesome.
 
My thought exactly. If Ryoma had 1barter for every time an eccentric started spouting poetry at her, well, she wouldn't be living here!
 
I want to complete Sister Red's maelstrom roll, then we'll have Koch come in. Clearly she's been invited to this meeting. I'll let her explain how when she does.

Thankalanks~


Alsoooo, while revving up for my chance to renter I've been thinkin' on what Koch may have been doing in the meantime. I was wondering if Koch might've been musing on that golden age piece of tech, possibly consulting the psychic library for answers.


Yay or nay?


(Also, Desolationland makes me think of some kinda post-apocalyptic Disneyland)

Well it is a lot like a post-apocalyptic Disneyland. Except our princesses tend to kill you, make you say your prayers before they kill you, or fry you brain. Your typical Jasmine, Belle, and Ariel.

*crawling out of the pit of slime* Okay, let's keep this going. Alice, you can jump in after my next post. Enter the room somehow, late to the party. If it comes up, we'll have the reason emerge in play.
