[OOC] Spiderweb city

[AngelNoire]

I guess balthy missed his net deadline...

[GingerBoi123]

It would seem so

[Balthazar]

I did what I could with one post, I'll be looking for a co-GM just to handel things when I'm not here.
This post explained: here is your opportunity for your character to leave to go to Florence if they want, or for you to stay with the crowd. Since introductions are pretty much over, I'll be time skipping soon so we can get the show on the road and do missions and stuff

Hi everyone, so deathdaeg (hope I spelt that right, can't copy and paste on here) has agreed to be my co-gm until my internet has returned. Incase anyone is wondering how I post- I have a blackberry and when it is not rebooting, I use my mobile internet to post. But I loose so many posts it's ridiculous.

I'll try to keep the RP healthy and running!

Anyone who can't copy-paste, Death or DeathDay is fine, too :P I may or may not be an Anglo-Saxon/Old-English nerd xD

Waiting on the GM'ing, really. If the story doesnt advance, theres only so many small talk posts that we can make. You gotta keep things moving for us or we're gonna keep having these three day lulls. If nobody's posted for a day, then its definitely time to add a new development.

I just had some RL stuff.

[Deathdaeg]

Post is up! Tell your friends! Hopefully I kept Jed within character!

[Balthazar]

Guys c'mon. It's Christmas and we all have our own lives. Just because not everyone is constantly posting does not mean we're inactive. On a lighter note, I went cosplaying on Sauturday, which was a lot of fun! Was thinking of doing my own warrior character for next

[AngelNoire]

Yeeeeeaah I'm out. The whole first season of the walking dead, and years supply worth of diesel thing is too much. Also the reasoning behind the entire farm is better in the short term thing was poorly done. Sorry man, but it's badlogic. Theres only so much ridiculous you can put into a realistic rp. Youre turning this Jed character into some kind of flawless champion of the people, and even from a GM its basically god-modding. And anyone with experience with godmodding knows that the only two ways are get the gm to kick the godmodder, or leave. Since the GM aint kicking himself, I'm a-gonna go with leave. I know most of you wont see it yet, and thats fine... but im willing to bet alot of you will get what i meant in the weeks to come as it becomes more apparent.

At any rate, I'll write myself out. No killing me off, I find that distasteful to do without the writers permission,

How is this in any way illogical? Hiding behind walls is not going to help anyone escape the enemy which surrounds them in the air they breathe. So toodles it is.

Cool! Who'd you go as? I've never really gotten a chance to go, since I don't live near any Cons or anything.

Hey, if this isn't your thing, it's not your thing, but I don't really think you can be very critical of the 'logic' when you scaled a roof, gave a speech, swung out a window, built a set propelled cart and then surveyed the town and a castle in less time than the Town Hall meeting took place. If you'll look over the amount of time it took for those discussions to take place, you achieved 6 hours work, minimum (including hammering, carrying wood, unhooking trailer hitches on two cars with (I'm assuming) a wrench, scaling rooftops and the bell tower of a church) in less than 10 minutes.

Jed's an idealist, sure, but he didn't Assassin's Creed his way to and from his bed. Now granted, you apparently know some free-running, but I don't see how that makes you an Ezio/Knuckles the Echidna hybrid.

If you this isn't what you thought it was, then you just need to say so. You don't need to insult the people here.

Actually those are all pretty viable and I spent several hours doing them in game time... You may have noticed that I arrived back at the place at night, because I assumed you guys were taking several hours to talk. also, a second story window is actually a real simple climb. i didnt climb the damn empire state building I climbed one story. Not hard. like a novice learns that shit man. Unhooking trailer hitches doesnt require a wrench unless theyre old hitches or theyre locked for some reason, which some are, still not unreasonable. And the self-propelled cart thing? It's basic science. Tension in the rope would provide circular motion, The wood would have had a draw weight of around three hundred pounds per wheel per second. They wouldnt have been fast, but they would have worked. Learned about it in shop. Furthermore, I wasnt insulting the people here. I was stating very clearly that it wasnt what the GM said it was when he first posted the idea, and I left the game non-confrontationally.

To conclude, I used several hours, read my posts, they were specific about the amount of time I was using. I climbed one story. ten feet and that does not make me Ezio, and this was my thing before, and I was disappointed to find it ruined by bad story construction.

[Deathdaeg]

Well, I hope you find an RP more suited to your tastes and play-style.

[GingerBoi123]

I will say I find it very strange you tried to get us to leave Angel. At least that's what it seemed like to me. Furthermore, I don't find anyone's argument terribly reasonable such as the bad story construction or the whole parkour/free-run thing. Just saying.

[Deathdaeg]

Eh, those are just problems I had. I didn't say anything because I figured "To each their own play-style", but the criticism just bothered me. If other people were fine with it, then it's my problem to deal with. All that matters is having fun.

Nah, I dont want you guys to leave, I'm just saying my instincts are going off, i'm sorry if it appeared that way.

Now that I get, I kinda ran off from the group. My issue is mostly that I was expecting a very different roleplay structure based on what was said in the GIC. I was expecting event-reaction not GM-MC. And that was how it was presented. Perhaps I was too aggressive, and I'll admit that, I just didn't want to leave without explanation.
