Actually ended up playing skyward sword lol

Or decide to go shopping/dragged along into shopping for a dishwasher and new oven. But, hey, loot was gotten and socializing occurred.

So, can I haz a small recap? I do want to try to catch up with the RP.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing of real relevance happened.

...I did introduce a new character, but they're not really relevant at all anyways.

Ah, okay. So I'll jump in when I can then. Much appreciated.

I have to leave about now, and I'll return at around 10:30 P.M.

Recap? Shop Rite was OK today.

Well.... that was challenging...

Attempting to write something like that without coming across as smug, or assholic.... but charismatic...

Hope for once I susceeded. xD

...

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh as terrible as I feel for saying this...

No, not really charismatic...at least not to me...

...But that's mainly because, well, the arguments presented were filled to the brim with False Dichotomy and Shifting The Burden Of Proof and other issues with the "logic" I had, not that this is an entirely cerebral sort of thing anyways.

Not the character itself, really, at least, I don't think so, so you did okay in that regard.

The entire argument doesn't seem charismatic to me. The logic is Insane Troll Logic and I don't find it plausible that one stranger is enough to turn a kingdom where Magical Girls were previously universally considered heroes against them.

Thats the point though, but the problem with attempting it, is the players already know that option a has no harm.... since they control option a.....

When things start to fail, humans start to turn else where... see below though, she knows the logic is crazy, she is just trying to get ANY THING she can started.

Providence is trying to stir stuff up, with people who would not have the 100% certainty the players do about option a, and even then it is not her goal.

Her goal is trying to stir up any feelings of doubt she can, over there abilities, or even better them if she can... so that... well when what is planed to happen later happens the result is much more effeient...

She is not trying to cause any thing directly, but become a primer if that makes any sense. :/

I like to think the people are desperate at this point. They have just went through Aion and Mordrus attack and are now being struck by an illness which over 10 per cent of the city has. Already there are six confirmed fatalities and vivian has the virus too someone who a lot of people love. The crowd are not acting rationally at this point...

Actually, the problem is, there was definitely a third option for the False Dichotomy problem.

MODERN MEDICINE.

As far as I was aware, those were the guys responsible for the hospitals and crap, not the Sailor Scouts. In fact, I think more people would be outright blaming them, not the weirdos that go gallivanting hunting monsters outside these peoples' homes.

...And no, I'm not counting the under "machines".

And I hate to back up my partner in crime but there is that, and thats why she specificly targeted them

Oh that machines has more meaning then you might think.... considering word of shiny is there are no robits in arcane.

And well there's a certain quote from a certain MIB agent:

"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow. "

That the people of Arkenea can turn on a dime if pushed hard enough...

something Hal and Ro better realise before the already betrayed populace realise what they are up during this...

...So basically, the argument is "Idiot Ball is in effect".

...

You see, while that's a legitimate thing for a role-playing game, that's why I can't consider such a character "charismatic".

Because "by comparison" is not a descriptor you should be using.

Oi, I really gotta keep up with background events better. I guess this is what I get for skimming through pages.

I am probaly using the word wrong, I am not the best with english. :c Sorry.

How about this, compared to previous Antagonists, is there performance more believable? and less Saturday morning cartoon?

I'm sorry but if they're this desperate shouldn't people be trying to use Kyubey to wish away the problem? I'm sure if they're deserate enough to blame what are essentially cops for the whole thing someone is deseperate to contract with Kyubey for a solution.

shhh stop spoiling stuff

(and the thing is you don't know if I'm joking or not...heh)
