Tired of givin' up the ghost
#13726: Aug 2nd 2016 at 11:45:07 PM

So an update on the movie post.

Alley, Blitz and I were talking in the thread and since the movie group is literally going to be watching Jack's backstory there is a good chance that there will end up being more content than should be included in only one post.

So the idea is, the movie post may end up actually being multiple smaller posts instead of a monster of a single post.

Mentioning it here since thread posts are easier to dig through than skype messages, and also because somewhere between a quarter and a half of the people involved (depending on whether or not Ara and by extension Garrett (and Eun) decide to stick with the group) weren't there when we had that discussion on skype.

Alright, with that post I need to get going for tonight. Tomorrow's the longest shift I have this week, (At a total of three times longer than today's shift by starting earlier and going later, though I'm supposed to get a thirty minute break in there somewhere, unlike today.) and I'll most certainly need a bath and possibly some rest afterward. I think in the end I'll be online... Like two and a half hours later than I was online today, I'm betting.

I'm planning on probably just staying home all day after that.

@Korodzik: Huh, I figured we were going to hand wave the group passing time by exploring the City and reaching the Cinema at sunset, rather than pointing out how long they spent eating 'breakfast' at the Buffet.
Ugh, blame it on me failing to catch up with the discussion thread before writing a post. (You guys are writing so fast D:)

Editing.

Here now, fully recapped. Got to go home 45 minutes early and I'm not feeling so worn out today so I didn't rest as long as I usually do. (Also I did my math wrong yesterday; today's shift was not 3 times longer than yesterday's, even if I hadn't gone home early.) I'll try to have a post up soon, just want to check up on some other things first while I think of what I want to post.

Well, I just arrived at my destination, I must say, it's kind of weird being on Pacific time because it means Firock's hopping on at 5 pm and I'm not used to that. evil grin

Barring any sudden surprises I should be available in the afternoons/evenings from here on out, until the 10th when things go back to how I usually am.

I can still hail the Horde even though the company has shamed us. Strength and Honor even if Blizzard has neither.

I remember one time in MMFRPG s2 I posted at the exact same second as someone, and our posts got horribly mishmashed together through some bizarre glitch.

@Ms Ami: What, the morphed crazy post? I remember that too; that was years ago, would be buried deep in the massive MMFRPG thread, and I'm pretty sure it got fixed. We had to like, contact one of the site admins to get it resolved though, it was crazy.

Alright, with that post I'm gonna get going for tonight. Tomorrow my shift starts a bit later and ends an hour earlier than today's shift did; it's still just long enough that I'm supposed to have a thirty minute break so I should be able to recap during that. I wouldn't be surprised if I get sent home early again.note 

I'll probably just stay home after that, like I did today. Almost certainly take a bath like usual, and might rest for longer than I did today. But I think that even the latest I might get on is still around the same time I got on today.

For the cinema group, I recently went through and watched Ro TG again while jotting down any scenes I thought were important and broke them up into possible collab posts, if just one massive post is too much, and gives us something to start with. Be warned of spoilers.

Link is here.

Maybe I'm just being thick but I don't understand why Ben's method of recruiting people is dumb or optimistic. How else would he do it? He doesn't know very many truly "heroic" people in the city by his definition so he can't exactly pick people out and recruit them specifically.

I imagine it's being taken as the same sort of optimism Ben usually has, in that he's attributing more of a helpful nature to people than they might actually have [lol] Anyone who hasn't been doing superheroics already may just want to keep their heads down and avoid everything.

That said, I can see Sir Redring going for it grin

In Eve's case, she thinks it would be far too easy for the other factions to get a spy within the group, with consequences changing with the faction the spy belongs to (I'm looking at you, Ruckus).

Also, i'll reply as soon as I am off mobile.

Here now, fully recapped. Had to stay an extra hour at work; thankfully I wasn't actually working an extra hour. One of my coworkers asked if I could give him a ride home, but his shift ended an hour after mine so I just stuck around. Rested while I was there, though it wasn't the most comfortable rest, so all I did once I got home was take a bath. I'll see if I can't get a post up in the near future, though I'm not sure what I want to post yet. Also I forgot to mention last night that I need to do laundry today; so that's going right now and kind of distracting me.

@Alleydodger: Well, I don't know about the others but my plan for Miss Tairee was that she would be more responding to the comments of the other characters than responding to the movie.

@All Hail Thrall: Well there's two big problems I can see with it, but both seem like things that Ben wouldn't be entirely aware of in character. (or perhaps a bit in denial of)

Problem #1 is that when it comes to people who A. Have superpowers or a close enough facsimile, and B. Are willing to follow a "don't kill people ever" ruleset, that's an extremely marginal population of the multiverse. Sure there's plenty of characters who have both those traits, but they are by and large exceptions within their own universes, which means that most of the random people pulled into the city don't have both of those apply.

Like, I've been trying to think during my work shift about any universes that I could reasonably pull a generic example NPC from who would apply to both of those,note  and honestly I can only really think of one; and I don't intend to pull several NPCs from one universe just so Ben can lead his own group. Even Sir Redring doesn't qualify for that second rule. (He doesn't really apply to the first one either. He's just a fancy sword fighter, when it comes down to it.) So it's mainly only other player characters that Ben would be alright with recruiting, and even among them, I think it comes down to like: Rex, Caro, Twilight Sparkle, possibly Jack Frost, and maybe Grimlock?

Problem #2 is considering what the other residents of the city, particularly the already established NPC groups, might think when they see these posters plastered around town. (Which leads into the concern that Eve has.)

Q10 wouldn't be averse to the recruitment process. Although he's currently palling it up with Plague Knight and Rex.
