Name: Trap Economics
Trap type: Continuous
Effect: You do not pay Life Points to activate Trap Cards.

Also, I also plan to spend 31 points on a Sanctuary Temple, two Nova Sanctuary's, and a Cestus of Dagla.

Seems really really abusable.

Depends kinda. It is only when the card is flipped up? Do things that have a cost every standby phase or whenever an attack is made or something get this perk too?

The standby phase thing is a maintenance cost. Those you still have to pay even if Trap Economics is up. As for an attack response...

I'd say it depends on the wording of that card.

Actually, even that may not apply since Trap Economics only works on other Trap card activations, not Trap effect activation, like for a Continuous Trap. At least, that's how I think it works.

Trap economics is fine the way it is worded now. It doesn't trigger on maintenance costs nor continuous payments. Only when actually activating a trap card. So accepted.

I'll see about posting later today sometime I haven't really been motivated too post.

@Joshua Tamashii@vancexentan While I appreciate character development, this conversation between Ben and Amelia is a bit on the thread-hogging side.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to tell you to not have a conversation between two characters. But when you do converse, and intend to do so for an extended period of time, please make it a collab. It's a tad jarring to see you guys just talk as if time stood still for those two whilst other events are happening, especially when one of those is in the same room those two are in. Also, while I'm lenient on this, please try not to post a reply so quickly after the other's post @vancexentan. It just adds to the thread hogging, considering the fact a big chunk of this and last page is the interaction between Ben and Amelia.

Again, I'm not trying to dismiss character development. I think it's needed. But please try to wrap it up or take it over to a collab post, it's much easier for me and probably for the rest if I could include them a little better.

Hey sorry about poofing out a while back; have been spending a lot of time working, playing Hearthstone and Overwatch, and running a D&D campaign.

None of those have changed but I will make it a priority to post more. Now I just need to get caught up and I'll throw up a post.

Sorry. I don't think we expected the conversation to go on like this. But other then the two gossiping near them, which Amelia didn't notice and Ben ignored, what else is happening near them, cause I haven't been paying attention to other peoples post. If they want my attention, they need to mention me so I begin looking out for what they're posting in regards to my characters.

Then I suggest you start reading my posts, since I had an older Dark Dorm student kick open the door, shove someone to the ground, tell everyone to shut up and then proceeded to tell a few Earth dorm students to scram so he could sit at a table. Something that isn't directly related to Amelia, but pretty hard to ignore.

Also, I'm sorry, but telling someone they have to mention you in order for you to pay attention is pretty disrespectful. Some people like to try and make this entire thing read somewhat smoothly, and dropping in a mention breaks the immersion (in my opinion, anyway). There's valid reason not to do so. I'm also of the opinion you should read every post, no matter how tedious that might be. A detail that shows up in there could be crucial later or contain some sort of important character development and you wouldn't know because 'They didn't mention me.'

I get it may be hard to keep track of it and all, but at least a minimal amount of respect towards other people would be appreciated.

You know, I don't know how to reply to this, as I feel like I just stepped into the middle of a minefield.

You aint Xei. I'm not going to get pissy over every little thing you reply to me with. But if you're going to reply, at least do so with a proper argument or with agreeing to do what I ask you. Not this, since this doesn't help resolve the issue.

Sorry, your response seemed rather heated and I don't want to push you if you were upset.

Anyway, I found the post you mentioned and I can argue that it is rather vague. I can imagine there being a lot of tables around the school and Earth Dorm members at several of them. So, the table that the Dark Dorm guy is at could be nearby or it could be in another section of the building. So I can justify their lack of response by saying that it didn't happen near them on that account. Then again, you can argue that I never specified that Amelia didn't sit close to the shop. But that this point, Vance and I have already ignored it, so responding might be a bit... awkward. Until something else happens that might draw their attention.

Though, that might break your immersion since I always add mentions. To me, that is the polite thing to do, since it lets others know you replied, and helps them out if they have to be away for an extended period of time for whatever reason, especially if they don't get rid of the notification.

But, we all have our own opinions in the end so do what you think is best.

@Joshua Tamashiisorry if i just but in and say something for second, the mention thing could easily be fixed if its tossed in then removed because i believe people still get the notification if it gets removed instantly?

I think people may be a little confused about the Duel Tower's architecture.

It's a circular skyscraper without hallways for the most part. There's a door connecting to a hub are which has elevators and a stairwell, that's it. Most rooms are one-piece. So there's no way to ignore it, since he came through practically the ONLY door there is. There is no 'other' section. It's one piece. The only ones that have hallways are the underground floors since they're not limited to the same restrictions, they have more space to build. The arenas have hallways built INTO the audience seats so you could get to the arenas, and every seat in the building is built amongst the wall and up into a sky. (Think GX Duel Academy audience seats and class seats)

If you guys want me to, I'll update the description of the tower to be a little more specific on that point.

Onto the other thing.

I mentioned that you should read every post because if you did, you don't need mentions. Missing someone can be resolved with a quick edit in 90% of the cases. If you think it's polite, great! I'm not against it if you DO it, I just don't want to do it myself. I still would like to request you read every post, though, since they're all important to making this story one whole. Also my reply was heated because, well... I converse like that IRL too. Makes me come off angrier than I actually am sometimes, whoops. Sorry if you got that impression.

In regards to the event, well... Not really much I'm able to do about it now. I'm not going to force you to participate in it, but a mention it at least happened near you would be nice.

Possibly.

I will try but likely not succeed to read every post.

I'd appreciate it.

Updated the description on some of the Tower's locations and added a bit more details in the opening paragraph. If anything is still unclear, tell me so I can edit it.

Timeskip happen?
