Server Enabled Mutators OOC thread [Dem meteors, they be rainin']

[adimal]

I spotted your post on etherpad, Gris, so I replied. I'll keep an eye on that so that it moves.

[adimal]

agh doubleposting

The Etherpad seems to have been completely cleared. Unless someone kept a back up, we've lost everything that hasn't already been posted IC. Does anyone know anything about this?

[GrisHarlequin]

Guys, Adimal's right. The whole etherpad is cleared out. Did anyone keep a back up? Does anyone remember all that was posted? If we have to start putting all back on we'd better organize. (but I hope someone did keep a backup)

[adimal]

Phew, okay. Just got done talking with vV, there's a back-up thing right inside etherpad. We have everything. Crisis averted.

Thanks, vV.

[GrisHarlequin]

All right! Way to go VV!

[sjasogun]

Whew, thanks for saving the day vV! I was pretty worried there for a second. I have no idea how it happened but a single crash of the server hosting etherpad could have cleared the thing. At least all the important discussion is still there, but I'll start heaving some of that over to either the OOC thread or the IC thread soon.

~Yay

I'm just glad there was a way to fix it. It continues to be a useful tool; but I think as we finish discussion and logs in blocks we should move them over here, maybe have one of the first posts be an archive post?

[SansDaedalus]

Just checking in to let you know that I haven't disappeared and am still working on my next post. I've got a little bit on my plate at the moment but if all goes well I should have it up by the weekend.

[fractalWizard]

Im totally still here. Just. I never check the etherpad :0 Cause i forget. Sorry. If anyone needs me, a PM is more convinent.

[SansDaedalus]

It's taking me longer than I'd like to do these pictures, and I'm starting to get the impression that I'm holding the plot up a bit, so I'm, going to go ahead and post a text-only update and edit the pictures into them later when they are done.

[adimal]

Hey sjas, Fletcher is going to try and touch base with Robin about the game. I've already set up a log in etherpad, for when you get a moment.

[dystopianScion]

So I've been working on touching up Pyrrix's sprite, now that I know a little bit more what I am doing. While doing so, I've decided it might be time to phase out his symbol for one that makes more sense. Here's what I've got so far.

[GrisHarlequin]

Awesome symbol! The sprite looks cleaner too! Will you redo your images too? That would be a lot of work!

I keep the PSD files, so it was really easy. Took maybe 5 minutes.

[adimal]

I found a good resource for anyone who want's to do sprite edit stuff for their posts.

I'll be away until saturday due to a school trip to Rome. vV's word is law during the meantime. All hail vV. At least until I come back.

[vanquishedValiant]

Pssssh my word is practically law already, my sneaky fingers pull at your marionette strings in the background, planning and organizing all of the vents to suit my whims >:]

Only slightly kidding.

Anyways, Flare-Dragon and Lexperiments we should probably find some time to discuss plans for your characters; we have lots of schemes for Kiriza, Mirale, and Pyrrix but none of them involve you guys!

Whether we can find a way to get them involved, or in addition to helping fit in your plans, I want to make sure that we account for them.

What do you guys have in mind for your character's actions and development during the troll session?

[BenBen]

Daaaaang. I really need to get a post ready. The holidays are coming up soon for me, soon I should have one soon enough. On other notes, Ben doesn't appear to be part of any plans, due to my imagination deciding the RP is less important that music. :/ I'll figure something out... hopefully.

[dystopianScion]

Today on SEM, Pyrrix gets...



...his feathers ruffled.





YEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH



*Is shot*

[Flare-Dragon]

I also need to get a post done, which may include snippits of Demeez's ancestor, Rimefire (in the form of a magical tome, Rimefire is literally Ice/Flame).
As far as plans go, mostly it's just reading the tome. Whether it includes magic or not, I don't really know. I could somehow have the cogs which I find in the Ice Temple (next post) do something, but that's as far as things go. Me being the Seer could be used to cause havoc. Maybe I could go Grimdark >w<

[vanquishedValiant]

Well Ancestor plans are definitely a thing; we have some set up for Kiriza/Mirale/Pyrrix (aka Balegear, Coilsong, Ashbrand) so it would be best if we could coordinate on that.

Particularly because the Ancestor arcs are meant to parallel / contrast current events, its important to slate them in somewhere relevant. I'd rather be able to chat about this live than through posts here though.

Going Grimdark is a bad idea. We already have a genuine Grimdark and a plausibly-likened-to-grimdark plot already... And you don't have any other real reasons to do so.

[sjasogun]

Booyeah, I'm back from Rome people.

So Ancestor = Needs live planning, Grimdark = No. Simple enough

If Ancestor arcs are to be parallel/contrast, then Kiriza's ancestor'd be like a lead weapons expert and probably went mad from lead poisoning and killed a bunch of trolls, or something like that (the second half is silly, but the first seems realistic enough). Maybe Rimefire'd be the army general, due to being foresighted and action-needing. But plans do need to be made. Perhaps a time should be arranged within the next couple weeks, since I have school holidays, and I hear Americans have summer holidays and still have them for some time. I can fit in almost any time, (except what would be within 6-11 hours time from this post, as I never seem to be awake then).

Also, !!!I STILL HAVEN'T MADE MY POST YET!!!. Sorry about this, hopefully I can get my mind set for having this post ready within the next 3-5 days.

Balegear is an elite undercover operative, Ashbrand is Space Spartacus, and Coilsong is a scary ruthless wildcard, if you want a quick sketch of what they are like. We'll give you more in-depth information once we get the chance to live chat.

ALSO: I really want to do some logs with Makkor. Probably just background stuff for now, but I am pretty interested to get a handle on their interactions. We can do something in the pad or on Trollian, whatever works. Let me know.

[vanquishedValiant]

Rimefire as an army general fits perfectly (replacing a previous players ancestor) although it changes the dynamic a little bit hahaha. I still dont want to bother typing this up atm because holy shit ive been busy with random shit.

Hopefully I will find time in the next little while to get back to work on this and put out a post or two.
