[OOC] The War of the Three

[TheWendil]

@Lucius Cypher

It's almost like you almost got the point. Almost.

[Lucius Cypher]

Be mysterious as you want. At some point people are just going to stop caring and do their own thing. And when they do, they'll probably end up doing stuff they aren't suppose to anyways. Stuff like Fran getting out of prison, or Grafdakka actually defeating someone. Or someone making a neutral area to have a beer and, gasp, mingle with the enemy. At some point you just got to take shit into your own hands and make it happen, regardless of who says it can or can't.

Getting warmer.

@TheWindel

Even I tire of your mystery :/

@Lonewolf685

I'm not obliged to cater to your personal whims as the GM.

[Flamelord]

Meh, I'm not going to waste my energy trying to play a guessing game of 'read the GMs mind'. Windel is clearly okay with the current status quo in spite of whatever flaws there may be, so why bother doing something that could ruin his fun by worldbuilding the Nexus in a manner he doesn't want.

@Flamelord

I'm not obliged in giving you straight up answers. You can search for them yourself IC. So far you haven't given me direct suggestions as to what you want. A slice of life? Then go interact with Miyu as Gecko suggested.

Even then, I'm not going to bend the base foundations of the RP to please one individual.

[Mega Birb]

@TheWindel
Everyone: Will we ever get a straight answer from you?

Windel: Maybe.

But seriously, I'm not exactly opposed to some slice of life with the cast we have. Ease some tension of many natures and all that.

@Mega Birb

The problem is that you've had plenty of opportunities for slice of life. Between battles, there's been down time almost every time. What usually happens here is that people don't post because they're either bored or don't know what to do. Activity only kicks back up when we move onto the next battle.

[Lucius Cypher]

@Flamelord

Ah but that's the key. It doesn't matter what's Windel wants. Or rather, if you want to do something, just make the nudge to make it happen, and eventually things will fall into place. And if it doesn't just pursue it yourself anyways.

Take this raid on Heaven for example. What started as merely my poorly thought out attempt at seeing people get themselves killed is now almost a fully fledged mission to get free some demons. And I didn't really do shit beyond suggest it and tell you all it is a good idea. If you want to do something, just mention it to someone and sell your pitch. Chances are there's someone who'll go along with it.

[Flamelord]

I mean you say that, but I'm leery because I have had bad experiences where Wibdel has decided that the ideas I've had are not moving to his satisfaction, being forced back into what he wants me to do. Forgive me for being sceptical that it won't happen here too when he and KoL have a bunch of ridiculously powerful people to lay down the hammer with.

[Lucius Cypher]

That's why it's important to rally. You know well that when I can't get things done alone, just ask your friends to back you up. If nothing else, get an idea, find people interested in that idea, and then just go ahead and do it. If they want to drop the hammer they'd have to do it IC, where supposedly things are suppose to be more fair and equal. Making powerful friends help too.

[Mega Birb]

@Lucius Cypher
So you're saying everyone should gang up on Deva.

[Lucius Cypher]

Sure. I've in fact had some funny ideas about how to do it, that it'll involve a portal gun and a distraction. But yeah. Let's commit deicide.

@Mega Birb

Is it time to form an angry mob already? Awesome!

[TheWendil]

@Flamelord

More often that not, your ideas end up delaying or hindering an RP.

[Mega Birb]

Sure. I've in fact had some funny ideas about how to do it, that it'll involve a portal gun and a distraction. But yeah. Let's commit deicide.

@Lucius Cypher

So bare minimum this plan involves either Henry or Greg, probably both for the distraction.

[KoL]

@Mega Birb@Lucius Cypher@Flamelord

Stop discussing this issue. None of this makes sense and I'm growing tired of it quite fast.

When you signed for this RP you knew that it was based around War, we went out of our way to provide more diverse opportunities of entertainment to you. Thinking that is not enough and doing things just to annoy is is really unsatisfying to is.

Actually, Cypher, do this revolutionary speech. You are not taking over this RP. If you aren't interested, you know that the door is just a click away.

[Lucius Cypher]

Take over? Nah. Just giving everyone ideas. I'm here to help after all. If you want players to make their own ideas and be proactive, someone's gotta be there to help get their ideas off the ground, instead of killing it in their infancy. Still if it's not something you want to deal with, it'll just have to be discussed in private.

[Lmpkio]

I've been in stuff like this before... especially with a Mr. Holy Soldier. Guys you aren't going to get anything other than twisted messages and hints and clues. Trust me, I tried before, it failed. I couldn't really get anything. Just hush down and let's see where this all leads.

(Meanwhile Im watching Star Wars Celebration 40th Anniversary, so good)
