Threads of Fate OOC

[Cosmosis]

I'm kinda waiting for a character to annoy Ikari and her make illusion copies of herself and bug them for it. Like, think of that. xD  Ten Imari's all glaring at you. 0-0 :3 X3 xD

Marth could do it! xD He would literally be like, WHOA! Dere's sew many! =3

Ikari is a bit like me in regards to food. 


If Quarkie/Ikari have 10 boxes of yummy food, and someone wants 2, how many will they have left? 


10. Because they aren't getting any. 


But yeah, "do you use it for yourself, or share with others so that they can also survive"? That's an interesting question, and Emi would certainly probably have a bad impression of Ikari when he hears about it. 


LOL. Poor, poor Kurio I have a feeling he'll be half confused why she's hitting him.I think at this point Eri is concerned and likes him to the extent that she'll be there to stop if she can (though ... her combat skill isn't too great yet)


@TheHappyPikachu

So... The monk should be in reserve until Solemn gets back right...? Like his character was never there?

I haven't activated the pit in the plot yet, but I will be soon. But Mr Monk's actions have been intercepted though. Unfortunately I don't think I can make much changes to that latest post. 


And no, not like his character was never there. 


That's the same for Jess and Neil, and all of the other characters who've been dragged into the pit. 


Our characters shouldn't be forgetting them, otherwise it'll defeat the purpose of the plot .

@GoldenChari


Speaking of which, looks like Peach will be witnessing with her own eyes of the pit probably. 


That'll be important info for the group.

Wait really? WHAAAA?! That'll be insanity! I'm down for letting her as long as she comes back.

not her. It's  Mr Monk bejng dragged to the pit. 

 

[Cosmos]

xD  Well, Ikari is probably trying to survive herself as that's what she's been taught and learnt, defend herself first and foremost. This is an almost instinctive skill that may become a pain later~ (It's even mentioned in her CS, when I eventually un-tangle its coding~ 0-0)

But what's this then quarkie?

 

[Quark]

She's going to witness someone being dragged to the pit. -.-


Not experience it herself. 


That's if she's still there. You are free to move her if you wish, since the pit isn't something you can detect by magic.

Well i don't know where to have her go. ANYONE FREE? To interact with i mean.


And i guess she can witness it. Pm me about how it will effect her/What she could see

 

[Quark]

Oh, that last part was just a suggestion that she's not forced to have to witness it. If she'd rather just run away, there's room for that as well. I want to avoid characters acting OOC. 


Rest assured. I'll be describing in the post when Mr Monk gets sucked in what it's like. So everyone knows LOL. (Not too different from the first time it happened)


You'll probably know more what I mean later on when the post is up.

I was originally going to post a lot sooner than this, but I ran into a few problems including my wifi going kaput yesterday @x@


The format I used for my post this time looks weird when I post it on RPN. >v>;;

It looks like a slide, but I had no problems with reading it. Was this on google slides? 


Also, when I was reading up to the part where Chizuru started to follow Ikari, Quarkie was thinking "uh oh, a chain of followers... or stalkers." Benton <--- Erika + Kurio <--- Ikari <--- Chizuru

It was done on photoshop.


I was actually thinking the same thing when I wrote that up. xD

@TheHappyPikachu


Hey Pikachu, just curious how far is Ikari from Team Benton right now? (That way of addressing... felt like I was talking to a pokemon...)

Honestly it'll be good intel for everyone if she stays. =3

 

[Quark]

It's good intel, but it is just one of the ways. 

Spoiler

One other thing, could I get a confirmation of how far you intend for the character to be in the RP? (I recall back a while ago you mentioned that you didn't really mind if Peach is dissed) 


This is for future RP purposes

Well i wouldn't know. I want her to stay for a long time but things can change.

 

[Quark]

Well i wouldn't know. I want her to stay for a long time but things can change.

What I'm asking is that are you willing to commit to use her to the end of the RP. It was bothering me when you can so easily say to Jester a while back that you'll just remove her. 


Since you've given me the confirmation you want her to stay then that answers my question. I might send a PM when I have time. 


But yeah, as said, if we want her to stay she can, since there's the plot armour and as long as things remain reasonable.

Well i was ready to remove her so easily cause i wasn't going to deal with him ruining the tension build up and just ruin the scene ya know?

So does this mean whenever something doesn't work out here you're just going to "pull out"?


No need to answer the question, but you might want to have a think. Granted, it's not wrong to do in this way to avoid conflict. However, what does it say about you as a player if you can't hold a discussion? (There was an attempt to do so previously, but it wasn't long before both of you stopped caring). 


Actually on that note, let's address what happened before. Anyone who's reading this, let me know if you have thoughts. It's a long read, but I want to make sure that we're all able to have an enjoyable RP experience. 


@Solemn Jester might have had Mr Monk moving a tad too fast without giving much of a chance for Peach to react. Not the best but he wasn't doing anything wrong in the post. 


In terms of discussing it would have been better if he (and you) could have given suggestions for alternatives instead of waiting on the GM to do so.  


Anyway, not going to talk about him for too long since he's not even here and I don't want this to be a potential gossip fest. 


One thing he pointed out with a good point is not to have his character acting OOC. This is something we've been stressing about for all main characters and I'd like you to keep this in mind. 


From what I see, Mr Monk just acted in a way that wasn't the best outcome for Peach. If I may suggest, it would have been better if you had just been honest with him why. It seemed he wasn't understanding why Mr Monks' actions would have resulted in something bad in the RP. Keeping 'interesting" things about your character's bio and personality might be good surprises, but it defeats the purpose if it is causing confusion and in this case it wasn't really helping with defending your point. 


Cooperation in a group is always more important here compared to entertaining the team with bursts of suprises. As the GM I don't even want it because I need to give sanity checks. There's nothing wrong with letting players know in OOC either, because we're collaborating ideas anyway.  


Now regarding Peach being mentioned of being scrapped and why it bothered me. As GM for TOF, I had said I would put effort into ideas for all our characters. But if the player themselves are having a "screw this" attitude without much of a try, why should I bother? 


If I had misunderstood, and you were saying it to warn him the "consequences of his post", then all I can say is that is not how one deals with discussions around here. The decision of scraping Peach would have been your choice which you are responsible for, one can't just say it was the result of the post. 


With that out of the way, for future reference (applies to everyone as well):


- For this RP, we're working as a team. Teamwork is important. Where there's people, there's bound to be some form of conflicts. Deal with it in a professional manner, please. 


- Be careful about asking other characters to act OOC. Discuss in OOC perhaps for alternative ways. Don't just keep tagging me to come up with ideas and do nothing because I will stop caring. 


- My effort reflects how much you put in as the player.  


Particularly for Peach:

Spoiler

I asked you to add to the cs to help others know what they need to be cautious of about her. While you have edited (I preferred you to have notified me you had changed it... ), it seems even more vague about the issue we've discussed. I still prefer you to be more open about it in the cs though and write it if you can. Look at Benton, Kurio, and Chizuru. They have things hidden about them but with it mentioned in the cs, it's opened opportunities for discussion and interactions.


 


Otherwise, you can PM the person involved if something similar happens so that only they (and me) would know about it.  

@Mitchs98 @Mykinkaiser


Just for precautions, please stop me if I'm being unreasonable or being too harsh, since you both are GMs as well for other RPs.  


Suggestions from everyone is welcome.

Ikari stalks all. 0-0


*Cough* I-I mean~


Like, a few steps maybe? Not too much but enough to give that sense of 'somebody's following me' in the way of footstep noise and so on~ :3 X3 xD

 

[Cosmos]

@Nano You tried to insult her my friend, but you underestimate just how dense this girl is. .-. She's totally gonna think you're talking' bout yourself or someone else, not her. xD  'Huh? Who!?~'

OK cool. Just that after you post and it's Erika's turn, I gotta make sure to know whether she had heard them or not. 


Thanks for clarifying.

Well... Seems i got bashed alot here unintentionally. Ouch...


I did tell him the main part of the problem quark. I stated the scene was crushed and the mood, causing the spur of rp to shatter pretty bad in that area. Not to mention i asked for one damn thing and he had to be stubborn as fuck.


It's not like i straight up asked him to not even think of lifting her skirt. i only asked him to not have his character do that in that particular area of the rp. I would have pulled her out so easily so he didn't get angry AND i was and am still uncomfortable about his character, and looking back, he creeps me out a bit too. Why? When you get asked randomly about what your character wears, then see a post of a MONK lifting her skirt out of nowhere in a tensish situation, it is not the best. 


I understand thats how his character is but doing a action and changing it to thinking of doing it is so miniscule on certain subjects it should have been a easy, "Oh. Sorry bout that" and done. 


Ya want me to go be unvauge? alright cool. i'll gladly do it at this point if you stop repeating yourself quark. Honestly. This never shoulda escalated to this. And the punk isn't even here!
