Eclipse Princess and Stinging Butterfly had a fight in a grocery store, in a reference to Ben-To.[/Spoiler]

You are right, but the fact that Princess used a shopping basket as a weapon is the real bite of the joke. And the reason why @TheWindel would get so exasperated.

If I don't post tonight, expect something early tomorrow.

@RoflsMazoy Help is on the way, crude lancer comrade.

Mind what you are going to do. At the current moment not even one of your characters is within close range (much less visual range) of Rocket Lancer. If you are going to try a trick that might earn an edit for being unbelievable/outright impossible, you are better off not doing it in first place.

To make it clear, Lancer ran away from your closest character, over the buildings, was engaged by the helicopter in the distance and followed a random path during the fight.

You'd better not have a Deus ex Machina pop up there, cause I'll obviously void it.

@Jedly

Your last IC post contains a serious inconsistency that makes me think that either you aren't paying attention even to what you write, or are trying to subvert the facts to gain some unfair advantage.

Namely, a few OOC pages ago, you wrote this:

@KoLErm, I think the Stryker cavalry has yet to leave the premises of the guild hall. Or is this 105mm gonna be able to pen a sanctuary too? (Not quite sure if the guildhall is a sanctuary).

to which my reply was:

<Snipped quote by Jedly>

Some of them left after Cypher's last post. They are the ones being attacked. Your post and his are just confuse in establishing an action flow. Either way, the gun does have range to shoot almost anywhere within about half of the city, when combined with the aircraft's movement.

All of this on order to avoid being within the firing range of the gunship.

Thus, I avoided attacking Paper Moon or any of the War Machines that weren't under fire on my 1st post using the attack plane. All of them which, as I remarked, were piloted by NPCs and none within Paper Moon's sight, given that (as per your own declaration) he's still at the Black Sanctuary during that post. In fact, Paper Moon isn't even close enough to Arms Slave to see the War Machine teleport that building into the sky.

That post of yours is basically 100% invalid.

You won't use word tricks to gain an advantage that's unjust over the rest of everyone else.

The fact that is not only you, but a sizable part of the players here who are blatantly not reading others' posts before replying, twisting words, not paying attention, trying to do obviously illegal actions, plain out cheating, etc, makes me think that you guys really don't care for the story at all beyond your own full of cool things and unhealthy need to always win.

It's becoming grating to have to do this at least once per most of everyone's posts. To come here and call an edit, I mean. Especially when this annoyance could be avoided if people decided to do 02 simple things:

Pay attention/Read before posting and play fair , is that really that much to ask for?

You want to start axing people now, or later?

Oh, god. I hope I haveddn't done anything wrong in my posts, i do try to read everything...

I was just gonan say I'm in the process of a post...

@Caits

You're fine.

Given the issues that happened in this RP for quite some time, but took unforeseen proportions these last few days, we have a message to all of you.

First of all, let us say that the circumstances which led to this declaration are too unsavory to expose publicly. Likewise, there's no interest to ruin the image and relationship between certain members of this group and the rest of it. Suffice to say that the behind the curtains behavior of a certain individual greatly disappointed us. This person can step forward and reveal what was happening if they feel like it; we just don't want to force it.

That said, we will strive to do things right from now on. We are going to assume a compromise on our part, but we would like people who have any kind of problem with anything happening on the RP, even if it relates to complaints about our conduct as GMs, to tell us. All of us. Secrecy had a heavy price on this RP for many people who are part of it either in the past or present. We want to avoid that at all costs from now on. I hope this bit of the message has been clear enough for all of us.

The first measure on this attempt to get things right again will be the removal of combat vehicles from DGO. It became a problem serious enough for us to decide on this route of action. Vehicles for transportation purposes will still remain around the world of DGO. Any form of war machines will be banned unless the permission for its use is granted by us for very specific situations.

Other alterations may come in the future, but for the time being that's it.

As a final note, here are some words from myself:

I apologize for my behavior in these last post months, being erratic and changing between depression/snarkiness and being harsh beyond the necessary/exploding with bolts of unpredictable (many times uncalled for) rage. There may be circumstances that validate my conduct as an understandable reaction against the same events that are mentioned above. Even so, that doesn't make it right which is what I'm apologizing for. I'll do my best to not let it happen again.

Finally, as it turns out that my wording of certain terms cause some unintentional problems a lot of time, I'd like to apologize for that too. English isn't my first language and, while I'm proficient in it, I have my shortcomings. I'm constantly seeking to improve in this regard. I just ask that you don't assume that my words are meant to harm when it might just be differences between cultures and translation.

While on that matter above, I also happen to live on a different time zone. If it feels like that my replies for important OOC discussions are either delayed or coming after some other resolution had been reached know that this is the cause.

To conclude this message, let us ask for your forgiveness once more. We are all humans we commit mistakes be it for lack of skill to defend one self without causing harm to others, lack of foresight and judgement or overzealous behavior. Working these things out and trying to do better with the lessons learned is the duty of us all.

Let's just hope nothing of this nature happens ever again and try to keep on having fun, right?

Oh. Well, I was hyped up to fight that tank but nevermind I guess.

That should be no problem. The vehicles will go out after the next time skip, to not generate anymore inconsistencies (to avoid inconsistencies). You still can have your fight, until we decide when is a good time to move forward.

Which means hold tight till Caits posts. She'll be good soon.

Alright then.

For those worried that you may be in trouble for some reason, let me come forward and say that I am the cause of all the problems currently happening in DGO. The details of what happened and what I've done isn't something that needs to be discussed openly, and some of you are already quite aware of what I've done. If you want to know the details you're free to ask me in a PM, or if you don't think you'll get the full truth, you may ask Windel or KoL for a short version of it.

Just know that despite some grievances we may have had with you in the past, none of you are at fault for what has happened. You've been simply caught in the crossfire of my own stupidity, hellbent on achieving his own selfish agenda that I've thrown away my duties and responsibilities as a GM just to satisfy myself. Judge me as you wish: I won't defend what I've done and you're free to think of me however you like. All I ask is that you enjoy DGO for what you make of it.

Will be posting for Strawberry tomorrow, sorry for the wait @KoL

I'll also be posting, maybe not tomorrow even but eventually.

My post is still in the works, just been too lazy to work on it. Playing FFX and stuff.

Nearly finished

@TheWindel

What's up with Bel and guys with dead fish eyes? Is that one of her "ideal man" characteristics?

@KoL I was surprised too. Bel must have a type

I think we can safely say that it is going to be difficult for Maribel to enjoy the position of Blue King after this incident.

A King in exile is still a King, is she not?

Well, I guess Yoshino showed us that a King with no one to follow her is technically still a King, but she won't be doing anything particularly fun in the meanwhile.
