PARTY PARTY PARTY I WANNA HAVE A PARTY
#276: May 7th 2011 at 12:18:19 PM

I've noticed I don't have a Character section. Sadness...

Speaking of, I've been caught in a wee bit of writer's block lately and my confidence in my writing ability's taken a major dive, so I think next thread I'll return to some of my first characters, get back to basics. It's been almost a year since I abandoned their story but I still think I understand them much better than any of my other creations.

I think he meant a character folder for himself.

I put my character in the 'Other,' because I've only been in one thread so far.

Yeah, Crystal Glacia got my reason for staying out of the Chatroom down about right. Furthermore, it doesn't really force characters into situations that can reveal previously unconsidered aspects, and it doesn't really make you dig into how their minds respond to things they normally wouldn't have to deal with.

That, and the only characters I have who'd end up there would be Isaac (who would be banned within 48 hours), Alice (banned within 24 hours, followed by attempts to get vengeance), and Alexander (banned within 12 hours).

None of my characters actually speak english.

And they probably don't write much either.

Let alone use the internet.

Truthfully, I actually wanted to use Vince in there so he could say, "I AM A 3,000-YEAR-OLD PHYSICAL GOD AND REALITY WARPER. NOW BOW DOWN TO ME, PUNY MORTALS."

Because he would seriously post such a Troll-y line in a random chatroom. If there more people around.

I can name three characters of mine that could do much worse, troll-wise, but two of them would break the Squickometer, so I'll abstain...

I'll hide your name inside a word and paint your eyes with false perception.

Killer Clown's Asau would probably be kicked out of the chatroom in 3 hours.

Now, to post, or not to post, that is the question.

-reads through Asau's time in the Chatroom-

Now, that's the kind of stuff that that thread is for. Learn about what your characters would do while hiding behind the mask of the Internet. ' w '

Oh god that made me lol. Though I don't think that Asau really cares if she's on the internet or not.

I quite like the feel of chatroom. It's fascinatingly informal, but it offers a quick chance to slip completely into the identity of our characters.

This is this.

Should we make a discussion for the Chatroom?

#297: May 9th 2011 at 7:25:35 PM

[up] I personally don't think so. It comes off to me as more of a game than anything. Unlike the Character Development Threads, there is no plot to keep track of, and potential discrepancies can easily be chalked up to the misunderstandings that the internet is known for.

...So, are we putting Carnival on hold, or what? Yes, or no?

I could go either way. But let's not "abandon" it. tongue

ABSOLUTELY NOT. I AM NOT GOING TO LET IT DIE.

Putting it on hold is fine if everybody else is just busy.

Yeah. I'm devoting most of my TV Tropes time to the Shounen project.
