No need for anybody to raise their hand btw, as it's now a free for all, oh and don't forget your additional information or has the remarkable Ella decided it doesn't change things? :P

Ella just loves to raise her hand. I thought we were discussing the original situation? If not, then she will probably continue with her original point. She's quite stubborn.

In the interests of speeding things along a bit, I introduced the additional information in the envelopes and then had ten minutes pass as I can tell some people are getting a bit cranky over things slowing down, so everybody is now pretty much going to be trying to argue their point in a free for all debate, fortunately the furniture is beyond anybody's capability to throw around :P

Oh and wood Cadmus isn't yelling he just said very quietly and calmly indicating to both alex and ella to focus on their work, and if you tried to tell everyone else what was in your envelope your toungue will stick to the roof of your mouth, your meant to debate the point without giving away that information, I do love how apparently Cadmus is a bad person :P

This is what's going through Alex's head though. He thinks that Cadmus is angrier than he is but I'll edit it so that Anthony doesn't give away what's on his paper.

Some people get on late. And they don't like to read one or two whole pages of of IC. Simple.

People work hard on their posts, completely ignoring them is disrespectful to what they do. Earlier on in the RP when we had times of 4 pages an hour, I can understand, but right now, a page doesn't take long to read through.

Malfoy was actually a pretty complex character overall, and Snape was probably the most tragic character in the series, so I disagree with the mindlessly evil. The other problem was because of how the hat sorted, Pure-Blood supremacy was taken into account, which tended to mean assholes were put in there.

She needed a group of bad guys for the series, but I don't think they are all mindlessly evil. I think they just have Slytherin's main trait and are ambitious, so they side with Voldemort because he has the most power at the time. That's why when he disappeared they pretended to have bee forced.

Kinda nice that I made Adair and Mist good friends because it makes it easier for me to just ignore them while on vacation instead of getting them into slow conversations with people I'm not going to be able to finish. Even though I feel like I should do something with their conversation....

Also, coincidentally (Well mostly) watched two movies today that had the person I used for Agatha's appearance in it. Two where she was like, 10 or younger...

It freaking sucks with me watching movies or seeing a bit of a show now. Saw some cute girl in a show in passing ( :blush: ) and the character was some sick person, and then after that I wanted to make some character that was actually sick instead of in perfect condition like my characters seem to usually be in (Well, until I treat them like crap). It'd be nice to play someone who was just, you know, sick a lot.

And then I watched Divergent, and while the story felt kinda meh and poorly executed, I liked the concept of the world and now I want to do an RP based off of that world. A cool world with a poorly executed plot. I could try and make the plot better in an RP :P

Seriously, my mind gets hyperactive watching movies or shows now. I watched 3 different movies today and got ideas for like 2 different things. I always like to challenge myself as a role player in different types of ways...

I tend to binge watch things whether they be movies or TV shows. Like the Harry Potter Binge I had, three days (I could have easily done it in half that if I wanted. Apparently I have no life right now... ) I go through whole series before starting a new show, though I do get burned out after a while. After three series of Star Trek, I didn't think I wanted to see another space ship again. I generally don't come up with ideas when I do that. :P Reading and video games on the other hand, gets my brain going crazy with ideas, ASoIaF in particular leaves me with an insane amount of ideas that I'm not going to be able to use any time soon.

I binge watch sometimes, but not really all that often anymore.
Another problem I have a lot now is with stupid things happening in movies where someone gets away with something dumb they shouldn't, or survive longer than they should if people weren't dumb, I always think "What would my character do?" in that specific situation.....Well, a specific character, anyway.

It is hard to post when you're helping "Babysit" a hyper puppy...

All I know is any time I'm a round a baby or puppy for too long of a period of time, it always reminds me why I never want to have kids...Or in the least, a baby. Adopting an 8-year old I've actually thought about in my head on multiple occasions, among all those things that float around in my head

I'll let people argue this out a bit more before wrapping up the class, it's only a matter of time before someone advocates turning the villages water into Polyjuice with Hippo hair in it or something!
