The Internet: Where people with no balls can resort to trolling people anonymously so they don't get their asses kicked.

A friend of mine once told me that 'it's only ego if you can't back it up'. Too many people like to confuse confidence for arrogance -- there's a big difference.

Not to get all psychological, but some people are actually just 'wired' to take things people say literally. I'm like that to an extent, but I've learned that people here are usually just shitposting.

Happy Anniversary, Ailyn. Six years ago, you gave me a kindred soul, and brought light into a life which for all intents and purposes had been mostly nothing but darkness.

Valentine's Day's bittersweet when you've endured a long-distance relationship for over five years. Here's to celebrating the strength of a meaningful bond, instead of taking a shallow and easy path.

This bio will get reconstructed once I've left the site for good. I'll be collecting my data in the background for now, and sorting some loose ends. I'll be on and off to do it, so don't think I'm back if you see me around. Once I've dealt with everything, I'll log out properly and remove my 'ghost' status, and that'll be the last this site sees of me. This community is in serious need of growing up, and I'm not the least bit surprised that role-plays die here so frequently.

The 'Grim Reaper's Gambit' role-play is likely to reboot elsewhere eventually. The role-play will have some modifications, so contact me if you're curious since the original project won't accurately explain everything. There's no determined date for it to happen yet, since I've got other priorities and I'm not investing a lot of time in it until enough of the people interested have free time to properly commit (lack of dedication on the part of some players practically destroyed the previous version; it's very apparent it would've died even if I hadn't decided to leave). There's a group that're quite interested, but most of them are busy.

Anyway, come back later for an update later -- or don't; it's your life.

Contact Details

Tell me who you are or I possibly won't accept the request, since I assume most requests are bots.
Yes, people who I rarely/never spoke to - or who never met me - while I was still here are welcome.
No, those who disrespected me (and aren't sorry) while I was here or are trolls/immature in general aren't welcome.
Also, keep in mind that not all of these are currently being used actively, so friend request replies might be delayed on some of them.

Playstation Network (PSN): Shoryu_Magami
(I'm fairly easy to contact through here, though I'm not really gaming much due to my main project's workload.)

Discord: Shoryu Magami#4323
(Unlike Skype, I primarily text chat on this instead of voice chat. It's currently one of the easiest ways to find me. It causes my PC a lot of problems though.)

Skype: solitaryangel1983
(Usually running on my phone, mostly so I can talk to my fiancΓ©, so it's easy to find me here. I've currently got no access to it on PC. It might take a while to see requests.)

Facebook: James Koutsoukis - Shoryu Magami
(Barely ever on this, but it exists. Mostly exists so @Ailyn Evensen can list me as her fiancΓ©. You'll find me easily on messenger if you add me, but I don't do much else.)

Yahoo IM: shoryu_magami
(Does this even still exist anymore? It used to be my main method of text chat, but it's not on my current PC.)

"The souls that God has given us, our spirits.
Our spirits, which found a way to swim through the immense network and live in the infinity of space.
Is not the human body a mere shell, a form of existence all too small and weak for consciousness with such vast reach and potential?"
Dr. Londes (Cowboy Bebop)

"When you're in the darkness, you only sink deeper into it. Keep the light shining."
Kenzo Tenma (Naoki Urasawa's Monster)

"But you must always remember that the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
Alucard (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)

"If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.
Buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever."
Sarah Mohr (The Crow)

"Is there an indelible line dividing sanity from insanity, or do they change, one into the other, at the slightest turn of events?
We'll find out, soon enough, that the world itself is insane."
Vincent Volaju (Cowboy Bebop: The Movie)

"It's not the result of one's life that's important.
It's the day-to-day concerns, the personal victories, and the celebration of life... and love.
It's enough if people are able to experience the joy that each day can bring."
Terra Branford (Final Fantasy VI)

I haven't really had time to play anything lately.

I'm about to get some rest, since I wanted to sleep about ten hours or so ago. See ya around.
@GarlandDaHero

Yo. Welcome to the thread.
@Raddum

Yeah, the OOC discussion was good to get done, so I'm glad I decided to post the CS up.

It makes sense that you wouldn't want to rush him, given what happened.

Time to rest. Take care.
@Raddum

Yeah, I more or less feel similar. In my head it's an option though, since those two are basically cut off from everyone else right now.

Hopefully things'll move forward soon. I mean, I'm pretty busy anyway, but I'd like to see this make some progress.
@Raddum

That's painful, but makes sense -- just in a way that hurts the brain.

I've been wondering if there's any reason why Cecil and Freya couldn't move ahead while we wait for Gohan.
@Raddum

>Trying to remember if 'Ritz' is the name of a cracker or not, but recalls it being one.

Lol, really?

Status update:

  • Collaboration should more or less be done by the end of the weekend, worst case scenario (unless something unexpected happens), so the next chapter will start at that point.

  • I'm not picturing many of the Major Arcana needing to be changed in terms of who received what, a least not in the sense of making bad decisions (especially since those of you who know about the cards at all have agreed that my choices were fitting on multiple levels, even beyond just the base meaning of the cards). I used a combination of my own understanding of each card, alongside personal symbology, and merging it together with information I looked up (I went through multiple sources written by people who actually do Tarot readings, for those curious), to determine them. With this said though, a few last minute contemplations will be done now factoring in some additional information/interpretations I've been given, alongside all the new characters we've been getting. For whatever reason, most of the images that I linked you all for the cards ended up becoming broken images, so I'm planning to repost them after making final decisions.

  • Still waiting on Daniel's 'Private CS' to be finished. The PM reminder was sent a while back too.
@Heap241

Exactly right. We're hoping to have the chapter shift come soon, so I just need everyone to remain patient a little longer.
@aviendha

Another good post there.

Considering I'll be responsible for creating the last of the card bearers to fill in the missing slots, it's entirely possible one of my characters is actually staying at this hotel (really, it's a wonder no one has yet), so we might end up encountering each other.
@Raddum

Ah, right. I'm basically working on some additional character sheets on my own end, because I'm filling in the blanks left after each person's joined. We got so close to having a full deck of Major Arcana that I figured I might as well.
