I joined this rp with the following rule in place.
5. Players may say whatever they want to say and do a number of actions, but they want to do something that affects another player, stop the post after you say something to the effect of “(attempts to do X)”
It is generally expected that an OP will play by his own rules. If April would have attempted to kill Kier, she is more than welcome to do so; I however should be more than welcome to respond before the final blow is struck.

it was a zero sum event
either you noticed and turned around in time... or you didn't and got killed
I rolled the dice on it and April won,
hence the outcome in the current timeline

He could have ran for it and left Ashley for dead. He doesn't have to die.

Unfortunately the dice did not work out in favour of Kier (in that stage of the game the dice generally favoured April)
Look, I understand you aren't very happy about how this RP turned out for your character
I offer a compensation RP somewhere else (where your character will have plot armour to win the day).
In THIS RP though, characters will (by discretion of the RP manager) die "cheap deaths"... you signed up for this =(

I'm saying it doesn't have to be zero sum. It could be that neither Kier nor April is dead, and with Kier gone she's still free to kill Ashley.

There is. When I OP an rp and someone has an objection to something that's happened in it, I pause the thing to sort it out. It means that this sort of thing doesn't happen.

Alright... look...
I'm really sorry you don't like how this RP played out for the character.
I am unwilling to retcon at this point (however, if you want, I will allow the name "Kier" to be substituted for another name so that he can be used in a potential sequel, if there ever is one). I will also have all players edit the Kier mentions to the new name.
If you insist.
...
As compensation for Kier's untimely death in this RP, I offer a high quality Compensation RP in which you are the main character, have plot armor, and can take on high quality NPC enemies.
If you accept this Compensation RP, please make no further demands on this RP (except maybe to change the "Kier" name)
This is an offer of settlement.
Please telegram me (if you accept the Compensation):
1. A brief description of your preferred setting for the RP and the types of enemies to take on
2. A bio for you main character
We can exchange further details on telegrams and set it up on another thread.
The following is promised:
1. In the Compensation RP you will have very very high plot armor
2. The RP will be of comparable quality and length to this RP (assuming you maintain interest in it to get there)
3. The RP will run even if its only 2 players (you and me) and I will carry it out in Good Faith
Do we have a deal or not?
TG details if you want.

I don't do 2 person rps unless I know the other person very, very well.
Honestly it's not the fact he died that I'm most annoyed about. If he'd died in a fight, which I was given an equal chance to rp, you'd likely have heard nothing back from me on the subject. The fact that you just killed him off without warning is what I don't like, because as I stated the rule you gave in the opening post clearly stated that actions against other characters were not to be done, but were to be ended when the character 'attempts to do x.' Naturally that's what I expected would happen here.

The 2 person rule favours you.
I am bound in the new RP to follow the good faith rule and to respect your plot armor... if we included more players and conflicts arise, it could lead that other RP to collapse
I think I can write scenarios decently well to flesh out whatever fantasy you have in mind

I'm not bothered about plot armour and I actively avoid rps with set endings though. I avoided one of the largest rps in ns history because it had a set ending, they're just not something I like.

there is no set ending for the Compensation RP
you will have 100% agency to push it towards any particular resolution you'd want
we can open it for sign ups too, I'd run it as RP Manager but I would ultimately be guided by principles of Compensation (which means that you are the focus of the RP)

But as I said, for any future rp I'm not bothered about plot armour. If Kier dies in that rp, he can go die in that rp because it's a different rp universe.
