duct tape equals love
Commence RP-talk.

I figured I'd get the ball rolling on this one.

1) Are we actually going to attempt to RP the actual race or are we just gonna do a summery of events sorta thing?

2) Book, you mind filling us in on what exactly you're up to? I can't speak for everyone else, but I would at least like to be filled in on what's happening.

1) Well, I think it'd make more sense to just do the summary, but I'd say Stab'll like to do the actual race. -shrug- It's not a huge deal.

2) I'd like to know, too,

I guess it's not, it just helps to know what we're actually doing when the time comes.

Another thing, is it just me, or the fact we can constantly come up with our own subplots and stuff for this making it too flexible? I mean there doesn't seem like there's much of a defined path as how we move from one major point to another and it's just allowing things to drag on and there's just a lot of meaningless crap going on?

If you ask me, we need to all sit down and work out a determined path to the stuff with the mayor, unless Ran already has one that is, and bring in some moderators to game to make sure we actually stick to it and don't go beyond a part 3, which would be rather ridiculous if you ask me.

/Food for thought

I'd agree with this. It does seem to be wandering a bit, and a planned path would help a lot.

-Nod- I'm glad to know it's not just me being weird again, haha.

The way I see it is, we use the remainder of Part II to tie up all the current subplots and all that crap and anything that doesn't tie directly to the mayor plot, then we focus on the mayor purely in the third part, which should allow us to wrap it up by the time we finish the thread for Part III depending on how much there is to do. Others might disagree, but I figured doing something like that would allow us time to finish up stuff we're doing then get straight into things in Part III, plus it allows us to have a time skip between Part II and III if we feel we want/need one.

/Is rambling.

If we can, it'd probably be best to try get the two families joining a little bit before the end, so we can work stuff out before Part III.

I guess it'll come down to how much we've got to try and wrap up before Part II finishes, really. But it seems like a reasonable idea with we want to get straight into the mayor plot in Part III. -nodnod-

I agree with the both of you. Part three needs to be all about the Mayor.

Which leaves me with a suggestion.

The Spike plot which ties in with almost everyone now. I was thinking that after the street race, our finalé of sorts for part two could be the Caduca Tredicim/Spike buisness finally coming out in the open to everyone.

With this done, and all other side plots cleared up it would give us a nice clean slate for Part Three.

-shrug- There's my suggestion. Discuss.

Hardly almost everyone. You, Dobby, Rand, Fang.

So's Chris and therefore you, technically due to the fact that Chris was around in those days.

He knows about it, but that doesn't mean he's interested. He's answered questions, but he's never really cared about it that much.

2/14/2011 #12
Dobi Boushi

Fair enough, then.

Like I said to Stab on MSN, if other people agree with it as the finale, then go ahead. But, to me, it doesn't seem as major as it's being made out to be. Again, that could be me being biased, because it doesn't concern me, but that works both ways.

That it does, and you have a valid point, I believe. I just think we'll have to wait for more input on the matter.

I'm just gonna say it.

Sub-plots are important. They give the RP backstory, we can't just rush through them.

So unless its agreed by everyone that we go with your idea, I'm not going to reveal anything.

Subplots aren't that important, hence why they are subplots, usually the events within them only effect a handful of characters, the whole Spike thing as Uri mentioned would be a good example considering it only involves about five of us. The way you're setting up this whole thing with Jason seems more like it well affect the entire RP. And if I'm right with that guess, then the rest of us have a right to know.

So unless its agreed by everyone that we go with your idea, I'm not going to reveal anything.

And I personally find that bullshit, you're trying to dictate the RP and you're not telling us what you're planning. If it really is something important then it is something we should all have the right to know and voice our opinions over.

First, the Spike sub-plot has pretty much affected the RP a lot.

And also, I said I would reveal my sub-plot, if everyone agreed.

I wouldn't say it was that big.

I don't see why anyone wouldn't want to know, so I guess I'll just wait for a while until the people have their say.

It has involved about one sixth of the characters of SHOT.

Contrary to your belief, but the characters themselves are more important then the plot itself, for they are the ones who affect how the plot goes.

And Sub-plots are important cause they center around those characters.

That's still a small fraction of the over all character pool.

Point a) If we have no plot, why the hell are we even doing this RP in the first place? Seriously...

for they are the ones who affect how the plot goes.

b) No shit, Sherlock?

Yeah, and if you're subplot has the potential to spill out and become something major which affects everyone's characters, we have the right to know before hand, is all I'm saying.

I can gurantee you guys.

I'm 90% sure my sub-plot will not affect the whole RP.

I thought I wasn't suppose to take everything you said seriously? :P

Uh-huh, there's still ten percent up in the air there, Book.

What do you think 'guarantee' means?
