Why wouldn't House recognize a Jedi and someone from GTA? He spends a great deal of the time he should be working playing video games among other things.

[up]Point taken, but it does feel more out of place than with Konata

Nonetheless once characters start talking the idea that at least some of them are fictional characters is an obvious one. From there the idea that we're computer downloads is a natural step.

^ Um, no, it's not. Many R Ps on the site are crossovers and that subject has never been breached.

It was in the original Multi Fandom RPG. Particularly with Miles from Lost. The problem comes when you have characters from things where popular culture is just the way it is in real life.

[up][up]Take it to PM if you want to debate this more.

Otherwise, make an RP post in the main thread. Doesn't matter what you do or where you go, but post something.

paulie, some of us aren't posting. There is a reason for that in most cases (for example, my brainfuckery), and keeping on probably won't change it.

[up]That's not an attack on you, if you can't post for whatever reason, that is perfectly fine, but if you're wasting time arguing over how it should be played, it'd be better to redirect that energy into a post. That's all I'm saying.

And here I sit, at work, mostly all day and unable to really post anything.

As for or at least in my own fic multiverse, Many series exist in different worlds. You'll find a cardcaptors manga in the Nanoha's earth, while in Gurhal there's stories of both Nanoha and Sakura. Sometimes IRL intervenes, And for example Nanoha in the psu-verse got Screwed by the Network while Fire Fly is about to go into season 8.

That's how I like to see it. Why for Yuria, she read children stories of kirby, (and how I planned, Lucky star was done by a mad prophet (with the reference jokes changes) and a midveil version of K-On (they're bards).

But yea, I won't bring it up again. Or what I just said. I just wanted to get in my 2 cents before everyone shut up for good.

Anyway, I'll be post cappable late Saturday est and the tommorow.

btw, where is the GM? Shouldn't moving the story along and giving us an occasional poke in the ass as needed be his job? Although I am posting now.

If the GM's title is to be believed, the GM lives in China, so the timezones may be off.

At the moment for my own self interest (delay until I can play well too), I don't mind one bit.

But yea. Or at least here, so we the players have a sense of direction and / or goal, so we can head towards it.

Also, might I ask about this city? I thought this was a giant crystal city? Mr GM, can you clear this all up?

Also, Ragna, Haze, sorry to hear you two dropping out, but I do understand. Sans real life issues, You can't spread yourself so thin doing 1000 things, or else you fail at them all...such as me.

that first Touhou RP has been one of the few things I've seen accomplished from start to finish in 2011...saddly but true(y)

Know what you're doing and put ALL of you into it.

After sleeping on this issue, I have decided on passing another official rule.

No more references to characters being fictional in the actual RP. While it could be seen as reasonable that Konata, being the nerd that she is, would know who the characters... Having Yuria recognize who Dedede is something that I just can't allow. Between that and the book thing, there had been too much abuse of the freedom to do so too early on.

Also, it's a regular metropolis. Just the castle in the center is crystal. Also, I've been sleeping I will try to move the plot along, momentarily.

Well, I'm sorry about you four leaving. To be fair, I was actually supportive of those references. It was just the early rampant abuse that forced my hand to make a ruling.

Also, I might be busy today. I'm sorry about such the lame post from me.
