[OOC] The Dust: Begin Again

[TheMadAsshatter]

Just FYI dudes, I'm currently in SC, and my laptop is... well... old... and pretty not good... neither is my hotel's wireless... so yeah.

But I'm going to see about working on my next post.

@TheMadAsshatter

Does your laptop reach 100C and randomly lose important System32 files as well as graphics driver .dll files and such?

[TheMadAsshatter]

No, it's not THAT old or bad, but I do have two that are.

[Darcs]

Yo guess which busy, perverted, little worker bee just earned themselves a promotion?

jk, you don't have to guess. You can see the Co-GM status. It's RIGHT THERE.

Oh.

Wow.

Already, I hear you asking--- crying-- to me; 'Darcs' you say, in a bored monotone, 'whatever does this mean for me?'

First off-- I don't appreciate that sarcastic tone you little son of a bitch
Second off-- It doesn't mean anything. I'm still going to be doing, like, everything. Honestly I'm not even sure what being a Co-GM means in this RP, in fact, I'm not even sure what being a GM GM means. It's really just Aeon's RP, but then you've got to ask: is it? Does intellectual property exist?

I'm actually really not sure it can.

Don't tell the contest staff tho, they were freaking out over plagiarism recently and I basically had to refrain from saying 'lol calm down y'all, it's not like you were giving away money to the winner literally no one cares about these contests but us and like the 5 people who regularly enter them'

Is that a jab at you to go write in the Guild contests? Not even. It just came out that way, I'm sure. Eris fuck. Good job, Lightning, doing real work as a Co-GM already. We're all proud of what you've done.

It's like 2 posts now right?

@Darcs

'Grats!

For a moment you were about to say you'd gotten a promotion in real life in a rhetorical manner. I was all geared up for a jealou- I mean joyous reaction!

Also does that make us pirates? (/joke. I remember the permission granted etc from the IC.)

So back on topic: All bow before the Demi-GM!

@Darcs
>offers ME the position
>heartfelt acceptance on my part
>calls me a pervert
>sarcastic little shit about how much i've posted (twice)
>wants me to take on a share of the work

thanks for the promotion m8

(of course I joke, thank you, I'll try to make Dust as awesome as possible)

@Jinxer Thank you! If you want, you can draw a work of art praising my greatness. Use the existing ones in mine and Mono's collab as inspiration.

[Darcs]

@Lightning Fast Shut up I'm quirky.

[Lightning Fast]

@Darcs more like you're jerk-y ooooooh

EDIT: Also mind if I add a post-apocalyptic tag to the RP's description?

I'm actually really not sure it can.

@Darcs

Yes, actually :3, it does, and copyright protection is automatic.

@Lightning Fast Congratulations on the upgrade. I wonder if Mahz still plans to outline specific abilities for CO-GMs and what that entails. There was a lot he actually wanted to do with the position, like creating a shareable first-second-third post that GM's and CO-GMs could all edit, but that would require a server-side save system to protect against malicious deletion. He had a lot of grandiose ideas for the position, but I haven't seen any of them implement yet.

@Jinxer Can we Petition Mahz to grant "Demi-GM" titles? That sounds a lot cooler.

[Antediluvixen]

@Aeonumbra Demi is half though, so only a half-GM?

[Syben]

@Aeonumbra Demi is half though, so only a half-GM?

@Monochromatic Rainbow

I mean half gm and co gm aren't that far apart, grammatically speaking I suppose. It would be a cool idea though.

[Antediluvixen]

@Aeonumbra Eh, I'd say there's definitely a difference. Co-GM is a GM who works together with the "main" GM to do things, a half GM would be more of a moderator (make sure people don't start flining slurs) to Admins, whereas a Co-GM would be more of an Admin who can't currently do Admin things but carries Admin/full GM authority in a sense, power to say, "Yeah that's a thing feel free" or approve CS's and such.

[Syben]

Anyways. To all the Dust players, I leave the management of this version of Dust to Darcs and Mono. I'm off to a different horizon. Make sure to thank your lovely game managers for sticking around and running this project, otherwise it would no longer be running.

Anyways, off to other things.

Always Lurking.

[Darcs]

@Lightning Fast You do you, boo.

Yes, actually :3, it does, and copyright protection is automatic.

@Aeonumbra

La propriété, c'est le vol, mon amie-- But I heard tell you weren't supposed to bring up politics at going away parties, or something in that vein-- so I reiterate my latter point; You do you, boo boo!

We'll think of you whenever we see your name appear at the bottom of the thread.

[Darcs]

@BingTheWing YES! WE'RE OPEN.

[Syben]

@Darcs La propriété est la liberté. =)

[Darcs]

@Aeonumbra La propriété est impossible. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

[Antediluvixen]

Vive la résistance!

No, but seriously, my French is terrible. I have only circumstantial knowledge of it.
