Demens Chosen [PL: Into the Abyss - CLOSED]

*brings the WD-40*

[Monfrox]

Well, on the bright side, this gives us more time to try to get our collective shit together before that happens.

[Fvaarniimar]

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Also, darn it Trump. Go save the day, Cer. *nodnods* I think we can hold down the fort meanwhile.

Once the new chars are settled in, you folks may (and augh, why does Autocorrect think I mean the month?) need something to do. I have an anthill I can run, along with three other businesses.

(Speaking of which, Sal, part-time/during timeskips work at one of the established restaurants could be an option for Henry. Does he prefer grease or mushrooms? )

@Mon: This, this exactly.

Also, I can yank Paper!Nick out of storage if more help is needed, or even have Kwa'a come looking for Rmwtyliin (with predictable results.)

NA, when you're done (and when you're done, Gio and Slo), maybe you could give some feedback on what it was like to run an encapsulated story.

But we'll be old then!

What challenges you faced as a GM, how you worked your way around them or overcame them, etc. We have other PLeeps that want to run long-term stories but they hesitate - it looks so daunting.

Oh, there's no need to wait. I can give y'all the feedback y'all so richly deserve right now! Just kidding.

But in all seriousness, I can provide some feedback already, and if there are specific questions potential GMs have, I can try to answer them now. It's quite possible that their questions will help me improve Raiders, because I'm very rusty. So, please, ask away! (Or TG away, or TG the Co-OPs who will pass your questions on.)

[Holy Lykos]

I can give some feedback what it's been like so far as well. Just the me or catch me on the IRC.

Good luck with everything Cer. He's ruining more than he ever promised to fix to begin with it seems.

[Giovenith]

No need to apologize Cer, thirty people keeping their jobs is infinitely more important than an RP. We'll hold the fort.

Oh, that's easy: we just need to get more collective RP fiber in our collective RP diets.

Try Dr. Sloth's Ascalon Tales, with Dark, Gritty Ghetto Clusters and Shiny Glam Flakes! Or Gio's Sugar-Coated Pony Stories, with Chewy Plot-Filled Centers!

Part of your complete RPing breakfast of champions. Some assembly required. Use only as directed.

[Fvaarniimar]

Tori, I know you have different opinions, and think this will be a good thing: any reassurance you can provide would be wonderful. You've made it clear how you feel about the fearmongering, but seriously, please just tell us what about him encourages you, because we your liberal friends are scared and frustrated and your opinion may well help us not to be!

@Slo: I'll take the sugar-coated ponies.

Admittedly, let's try not to derail the OOC in the process.

Copying edit so that this post isn't totally off topic: Also, I can yank Paper!Nick out of storage if more help is needed, or even have Kwa'a come looking for Rmwtyliin (with predictable results.) Neither is a standard Resident but both know their way around.

With a touch of Civet&Penguin's Special Sriracha Blend. Guaranteed to produce the runs in any and all individuals.

[Fvaarniimar]

Ah, are we aping Dr. Who?

"Run!"

"Allons-y!"

"What's the plan?" "RUN!"

[Tiltjuice]

I'll remind everyone to keep politics out of here. There's an entire OSF for it.

Mushrooms for the win!

[Fvaarniimar]

@ Sal: Link! But not Zelda

[Saldinado]

Oooooh. Interesting. Interesting indeed.

After The Zone, I can never look at mushrooms the same again.

[Holy Lykos]

Since Ive been told I probably should do this, and eith Fvaar's encouragement I figured I should say this along with change up my signature.

I am nonbinary/Genderqueer, and prefer they pronouns. I made it more obvious in my signature to hopefully help with reminding people too. Don't expect people to remember perfectly from now on of course.

But this is PL and I should be able to be open here, with the redicuously diversity we have.


Anyway, back to normal things.

Oh my god, Mon! What have you been doing to Zone mushrooms???!

Oh my god, NA! We have to kick you out now!

I'm kidding. You'll need to remind me about pronouns... I'll never use the wrong one intentionally! But sometimes I forget.



Thanks for your understanding about the god war story delay, peeps.

And now the elephant in the room. YES, I have seen Torsi's "Anti-Antifa Action; Vorwärts! Vorwärts!" sig. YES, I understand why some of you are deeply offended. NO, it doesn't violate anything from what I've heard. NO, I don't care if people hold differing views from my own.

That aside... after all the Golden Dawn stuff (they kill Rom), and the Nazi stuff (they killed Rom) and now the Anti-Antifa stuff (they beat the fuck out of my anarchist Rom ass back in 2009 because I rallied for a woman's right to choose), I'm not personally comfortable associating with you, Torsi. I ask that my fellow CoOPs handle OOC questions and IC responses. I will no longer be able to receive your telegrams or see your posts, Torsi.

I do not insist that anyone follow suit. It isn't my place to tell any of you who you can associate with, and I don't discourage your friendship with her.

[Torsiedelle]

You know a simple "don't use that sig" would make me change it.

I'm stubborn, but I'll also change a sig or flag if asked.

Now I'll try to be a bit more active about reminding people yeah

And its no problem, things are tough right now for you guys.

[Monfrox]

Oh my god, Mon! What have you been doing to Zone mushrooms???!

Oh no, the question isn't "what I've been doing to Zone mushrooms", but rather "what has Zone mushrooms threatened to do to me". The answer: Things I can't explain to in good company.

For similar reasons, people will have to let me know when Torsi's characters want to interact with the Belas. I'm very clear on the OOC/IC distinction, but I don't see Torsi's posts any more.

Posted. Finally... Spent most of the day cleaning around the house.

And guys... Ace Combat 7 is a thing! And on PC!

Now I can have my nostalgia-IV, without having to buy whatever Playstation is out now.

[Tiltjuice]

Done.

I want to make it explicit that I will handle RP-related matters with the same professionalism you've described before, Torsi. That does not translate into any sort of a desire to associate with you socially. Erasing elements of a signature or changing a flag does not change what you truly believe.

For the record, I regard all your political advertisements and your statement that you wear those colors for Swith as arrant hypocrisy one way or the other. This is something I've long thought but kept to myself - no one has heard this before despite my not being shy about sharing my views, which you all should know from before.

Either way, perhaps it would help you to be clear in your own mind which way you are going.

It's okay Mon, we all did things we're not proud of in the 60's.
