Lets be honest, if Rtron doesn't have Vestec's nose everywhere at all times then we have a problem.

How could we have been so blind! @Kho, @Rtron is going to stage a coup! The Wanderer of the OOC with the help of @Slime has foreseen it!

Guys, @Cyclone and I have come to a bit of an impasse regarding how our post should be fed into the IC.

The post is in sections (each section being its own post, really, with no link at all between story taking place in each section).

I would like to see the post split into a few smaller ones (perhaps each section being an independent post) whereas Cyclone wants to post it in two parts one after the other (as it is impossible to post it all at once due to being way over the 150k character limit).

I'm just curious as to whether you guys have any preference which we could take into account when it comes to how the post should be fed in?

No preference from me. I'll try to read it either way.

I'm in favour of the 2-part solution. Clean and tidy.

@Kho, if each section is fairly self-contained, it would probably make more sense to split it into separate posts.

@Kho
Splitting it into smaller posts is easier on the eyes. I'm not a big fan of wall texts.

If each section of the post has no relation to the others, then why post it all in a huge wall of text?

*mumbles about how Kho is manipulating all of you*

To my credit the links between sections are that they mostly take place in the Firewind Desert and that they go in chronological order, bringing the Vetros plotline that is way behind everything else up to date with the brief Realta invasion.

The collab was mostly just me getting done everything on the laundry list that I needed to get done with Vetros, but then comes Kho and suddenly there's this new guy, then suddenly there's something like 2-3 posts worth of content about said new guy...

It's not my fault, I swear. I was given the vague command of 'lore-building' and 'exploring' the culture and ways of the horse people. It's only natural that an epic, Deserts&Horses adventure should ensue. Oh, and of course, lottsa poems.

ILikeWritingStuff.I'mSorryT-T

So far:

3 for separate posts
1 is neutral (jus' gimme the damn words man, don't hold out on me orIswearI'll-)
1 for mountain post

It will actually be a longer wait if we post these separately, because assuming that we go in order of section so as to keep the IC in chronological order, we'll have to wait. Sections 1 and 2 are still incomplete, so it's not like we can start rolling out the first of several small posts right now.

Then assuming that we don't just LOL and do a penta-post (something like thatwould defeat the purpose of your plan) there would probably be at least a 1-2 day wait between each section.

...actually, I kind of like the idea of just doing a penta post. Third option for us, @Kho!

He means post all parts at once. Like double posting, but instead of two it would be five posts.

The dreaded double-double post, but with another post clinging on for its dear life!

A penta-post is a collection of five post offices spread across numerous cities.

Third post in a row that I ended up trashing. Man, it is hard to get back to the flow.
