I vote for option one.

It does give a firm place to go and a nice push towards storyline.

...I have to say, I agree with Ben, here, and all the points he's made. Plus, I'm too curious to see the real effects of that little pocket mirror in Fang's possession.

I believe we should wrap up this whole fight thing soon and get on with our plans of moving the action out of Chun-nan. Hopefully we're headed that direction already, but, whatever the case, anything we can do not to drag it out overly long will probably help.

I'm considering making this next timeskip pretty significant. The general idea here is that Li Fang is actually hopping out of the country to South Island. I presume the others will pursue once they learn (not only for the sake of pursuing, but also going home), but they'll basically be starting over in their search.

I was thinking maybe we'd bump things forward a couple weeks, if no one is opposed. There may be space for a minor log, here, to fill in the gaps and do a little story exposition (technically taking place prior or in the middle of the aforementioned timeskip). It'd be best suited to a character who was involved in the incident on the Egg Destroyer. (If anyone's interested in that, pipe up.)

Assuming no one has any qualms, I'll make this big jump happen soon.

I may be willing to get some narrative done if there is a call for it. All depending when I'm around these next couple of days.

Alright, so, here's the dillio with the story. Before we move on, make sure you've read this announcement.

Alright. Now, there's a thing going on in Minor Logs showing where Ace is. Except, it doesn't really show where Ace is, in that it leaves the specifics of the environment and locale hidden. This is by intention, because we have not decided on those specifics.

Furthermore, though this chapter begins with Li Fang in control of something dangerous, I don't have the intention of making him be the sole focus of the chapter. Like the announcement says, that is undecided, and will depend on decisions your characters make after he is defeated—or, alternatively, will depend on if they defeat him at all. They may not have to even deal with him much depending on how they play their cards and what they determine to be the true priority. (In other words, things are still very flexible, but take care in making your characters' decisions, of course.)

So, question 1: Where do you think would be the interesting locale? There are a number of hidden and abandoned places, owing to Eggman and other forces. They could be tucked away somewhere in the desert, or up at the very top of the mountain in the old Scrap Brain factories, or, anywhere, really. Whatever makes for the most interesting confrontation, in your opinions.

Question 2: Of the things mentioned in that announcement post, what sounds like the most interesting to pursue? Also, it may not be too late if you have another, completely divergent idea of your own. The planning is still very open.


Disregard this post. Reason coming.

I don't think there's a whole lot more to go over in the thread. Unless I missed something or someone else still had something in mind.

Well, as said, we were waiting for Greens.

But, now we aren't. Greens' thread is wrapped up, and it's tiiime to move forward.

Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

How do you guys want to do this next thread? The way I see it, the options are...

1. Come in before concert
With this option, some members of the party may just arrive and watch the show as normal, while others may forgo watching the concert at all and instead try to sneak around or break into the backstage area, and subsequently get into some sort of robo-battle with Chimera bodyguards before the concert. If the infiltrators go undetected and avoid any fights, concert proceeds as planned, then probably timeskips to its finish for further investigations and super-crazy-battle confrontations.

2. Arrive late in the middle of the concert
Same as above, but probably with less immediately-apparent motivation to get backstage. Could result in a storming-the-stage confrontation, which would be uber-dramatic, but it'd require that Ace or Geoff be that brazen or embittered since no one else would be likely to, so I don't know if this one is a good option.

3. Assume the party just watched the concert, and start the thread after it's over
Rather than writing too much of it out, we assume the party watched the concert and didn't get into any trouble, then we pick up the action while the band is packing up to leave, as our intrepid party goes snooping backstage for answers (or for trouble, as they instead crash their way back there with a big fight, if you prefer).

Thoughts? If there's an obvious, RP-friendly option I'm missing, let me know. My personal leanings are to either #3 or #1. I mean, option #2 could be cool, but I doubt it's in Ace's or Geoff's character, and no one else is quite that ticked off at Rock and Jam.

Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

I kind of like option 1 because of the open choices available for every RP'r. In a second thought though, like aforementioned, the ones who would really have the, for better words, "right", to go after Rock or Jam would be Geoff and/or Ace... I'm sure Casey may have some money involved reason to go after the band but if such said option were true, it would basically seem like option 2 with everyone attacking the band... Option 3 seems to allow a better sense of reason for the group to come up to the simian pair, and if for some reason, make up, or fight for whatever reason. I like the freedom for option 1, but it just seem a bit rash to go after people you don't really know (unless of course you are Geoff or Ace).

Not sure if it make sense, but basically I like option 3 the most.

Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

I'll have to go with #1. As already stated by Matt, it seems sort of a stretch for Geoff/Ace to just go barreling onto the stage (and probably a foolish option in the first place), but I doubt those willing to have some sort of confrontation would just idly wait till the show was over. At least with this option, there is a choice for the character to either sit back or be with the group attempting to get backstage.

Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

That makes sense. I think it kinda depends on you or Greens for the a-okay on jumping Rock and Jam. It just seems as though no one else there has much real motive on their part. Maybe, maybe not, but it's a group choice.

Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

Option 1, for sure.

Author:  Zaka51 [ Tue Jul 31, 2012 3:34 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Current Thread Discussion Thread

I'm fine with any option, personally, but I think Option #1 would be best.
