Hey, Lug, I wrote that I'm working on a Practice teacher next to the to do list XD I passed out last night before I could finish her. #narcolepsy

Oh, I see. Hm... Well, we might consider having two Practice teachers that work together. One that specializes in target/dummy practice, and the other that specializes in creating and managing obstacle courses. Or one of you can be the teacher and the other the teacher's aide. Basically I don't want to you have three characters while Harine, a co-gm, has only one. By the way, the classroom for Practice is outdoors, though in a sort of controlled area, like the Quidditch pitch in Harry Potter. It comprises a big shooting range, as well as a bunch of terrain that's perfect for obstacle courses. @Agent, I didn't delete it actually, even though I said I might. I'll take a look at the history and see what I can get for you.

Yeah, mine is far, far more specialized in the target practice department XD

Oh yeah? I draw from real-life experience in the firearms/obstacle course departments. u w0t? u wanna 'ave a go mate?

*throws up his hands* I surrender! No, but seriously, I have quite a bit of experience with firing guns myself. Not so good at the names, though. Obstacle courses, I suck at those. Honestly... If I hadn't already typed up half the profile I'd just tell you to take it, but I like my character concept and I've put effort into this. I would like to partner up, though...

@Kaithas Sure, who would be the main teacher and who would be the aide?

Well, I was going to follow what Lug said and have an expert in target practice (which is what my char is) and an expert in obstacle courses/maneuvering But if you want to have a teacher/aide relationship, which would you rather have?

When imagining how Sabrina looks like, look at the Lugo Version of appearance except with the anime face. I like it that way. I will also try to reply as soon as possible. I'm going to get cars tires replaced.

I got something, but it is mostly dialogue directed at Oswald for now. I put it up in the MODA pad so you can look at it and possibly add your own response immediately. Would prevent us hogging post numbers IC.

Well, the character I have in mind is a female soldier type. Either teacher or aide is fine. She wouldn't be an expert in precision long-range work, but basic combat skills and training would be more her forte. She would cover ranged weapons, weapons manipulation, and hand-to-hand combat.

Wait, I just realized, what's the point of a dedicated "Armory" class if we can only upgrade our weapons if we win the bonus challenges? What will our characters be doing all period? And what about people who don't take Armory class? What will the excuse be when their weapons are upgraded? All I can think of is "They're a real tinkerer and found the time and resources necessary to do this solo." But that seems like a stretch for most characters.

At the end of the day, Armoury is still a class with a dedicated teacher and unfortunately, not every student that signed up for Armoury can make tanks which means that things will have to be taught assuming that the students only have a basic knowledge on engineering and designing. I do know what you mean though so maybe if we have some form of afterschool class where you can spend points to upgrade weapons?

So, Lugu, I should have the music teacher's CS done tonight. What do you want done with it when it's ready?

Oh, yeah, that makes more sense. Sorry, I just get confused sometimes. As for the second part, I guess upgrades could be given better explanations, like, as you said, an afterschool class or an NPC friend helped or something. I'll be sticking with my vote then.

Everyone congratulate me I just 100%ed Majora's Mask 3D.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I would have gotten that game to but I spent all my money on Evolve. :(

@Krayzikk, post it here. @PoS, nice work! I'm thinking of buying it myself. @Lokileo, we should play sometime. @Kafka, I'm going to continue with my comparison of Armory to Wood Shop. Let's say weapons are chairs. Chairs are among the hardest things to make in wood shop, and they are very useful in the individual's everyday life, but if you take the class you're going to want to make some hat stands and spice racks as well. Basically, Armory is more than just upgrading weapons; it's making devices, gear, all sorts of things. It's basically a hands-on Engineering course. As for the actual upgrades, they can be done in class by the students who picked Armory, but the classroom can also be visited in evening hours for those who don't have the class, much like Narc's 'afternoon project' bit. Right now, 16/25 people have voted for contests, with one against. I'm going to go ahead and call it: we're having these darn things. Sorry Beo. Perhaps you'd like to explain your reasoning, and I can adapt it to better suit you? Anyway, of those sixteen, nine have voted for an Option, with eight for Option B, and one against. In my book that's good enough to declare Option B to be the official rule. With this in mind we're going to have to take another look at the credits rewarded by all of the suggested missions, perhaps having a number directly related to the difficulty level. Pertaining to contests, a winner will recieve two credits, and a single runner-up one. As for the shop values, shall we say that it takes 4 credits to significantly upgrade a weapon or gear (or make a really awesome new thing), 6 to acquire a substantial natural ability boost, and 10 to purchase a subplot? The way these subplots will work, by the way, is that the buyer gives me something to incorporate into the story or allow them to do, usually to aid in their own character development I'm guessing. Keep in mind that it might work out that an A-class mission rewards 4 credits. @Sho Minuzaki, acknowledgement of your presence is required. I understand that your last post said that you were busy, but still. @Sixsmith, acknowledgement of your presence is required also. It's been five days.

Curses! My plans! My plotting! Ruined, all because of those fifteen other people and their mangy mutt.

I went ahead and posted my character in the appropriate section. I hope that's alright.

A delightful character, Seven! Should a spot become available you'll be the first to know.
