Across Universes (Discussion)

ok guys and gals if you have any things you want to do in our between plots zone do them today because invasive species begins tomorrow i wrote the first scene setting post already

It's alright, man!

Since shiny has confirmed he is unable to continue, we will be holding a vote yet again.

Please say if your interested in G Ming, unless some one new is we will start the vote later tonight.

I’m still interested in doing my plot.

I'm also willing to GM for everybody.

I am going to throw my hat in this time as well, am I right to assume you two are running the same plot you last pitched or do you want to update?

same plot

Aye, same plot. If you need more details, I can put something better together, but same focus of saving a goblin princess from the clutches of the evil adventurers.

Alright, take two, electric boogaloo. I hope that I'm not disruptive this time (and apologies for last time). Is my current character suitable for this RP?

A jokey version of Warhammer 40k is not inherently bad in and of itself, but the fact this guy has willingly worked for a) A morally dubious faction, b) An outright evil faction called Chaos, and c) A single working mother whose goal is to burst through our reality and drown us all out aka an Outer God...is a pretty big warning sign. And while "cares little for allegiances" sounds good on its face in regards to avoiding conflict, that also signals that this character has no regard for current ties either which sounds like he's willing to stab people in the back if he gets to indulge in his food fetish.

So I am not sure if they are suitable for this game as they are.

And on the plot end, I would also like to submit my plot.

Return to Hoshiniha; Operation Metro.

The foxes need more artifacts, and who better to collect them then the people who proved so reliable before. :D

Highlights include more exploration of areas left mostly unexplored last time, the Yomi, the inner-workings of the ring-wold.... and less dickwolf fox on account of you having killed him the last time around.

Break a stalemate in some underground tunnels, explore a city of ghosts... ride a dragon.

And with that, we will commence the vote.

So I'm planning on getting back into the RP sometime soon, and I've in big parts rewritten the sheets for Quartz and Ironscales given the changes that happened to them during play. Mind reapproving them just in case?

I miiiight play some of my other characters too, but I played them so rarely if at all that nothing changed >.>;

Voting for Rai.

Abstaining, like last time.

Throwing in vote for Bcom's plot since I can't vote for multiple ones.

Actually you can.

I'm still voting for some War Bacon

I've changed the character sheet up a bit to be more ambiguous in regards to who Virius cooks for and "cares little for allegiances" to being a good host for anyone who is willing to share in his love of food. Is this a bit better?

After much consolation with every one involved, I am afraid the answer is no.

There has been a long history of disruption and issues that we just cant ignore at this point, and it has brought up way too many concerns.

I would recommend looking for a different game, sorry.

Ok then. Maybe next time I could see more eye-to-eye with you guys since it feels alienating when everyone is talking without me, especially in regards to when I'm the one concerned. I'd prefer if everyone directly voiced their opinions about this to my face. Bye.

Eric, as someone who hasn't played with you in WAOA and only heard what happened there second hand, allow me to explain why we rejected you. When you tried to apply to AU you acted very obstinate, you left when we asked if you read the rules considering that your first character was extremely OP and then your second character blatantly violated the no-fabricators rules, which proved you hadn't read the rules. Your third character I honestly had no issue with, but it is this exact attitude that made me, personally, not want you in this RP. Acting as if you're the victim of the big-bad G Ms and then leaving by saying that we are out to get you does not endear you to anyone nor make us reconsider letting you join. Hell with your original good bye post I had actually wondered if I was too harsh and was debating saying we should let you in after all. We are not obligated to let you play AU, and considering your reactions to rejection, we're not sure you have the player personality we're looking for. P.S.: taking pot shots at us by editing your comment after you've posted it is pretty much the final straw, please do not return to this RP or WAOA once it reactivates.

To sum up my opinion on this; you come off as a powergamer. You do not seem to be here to become immersed in a character and have fun, you seem like you are here to be the biggest badass in the room, which naturally comes at the expense of everyone else - the other players for not being able to contribute as well as the GM for having the experience they so lovingly crafted swept aside because of how cool your character is.

Your behavior in WAOA, such as the time where you repeatedly had your character offer to teleport enemies we were fighting into space despite explicitly not being present where everyone else was and being asked multiple times to stop, is indicative of this. Additionally indicative of this was your signup to AU; when we asked that you nerf your character, who was extremely fast, extremely tough, extremely smart, and incredibly offensively potent, you proceeded to do so in a way that still left them extremely fast, extremely tough, extremely smart, and incredibly offensively potent.

To cap it off, the fact you posted in the game before we had cleared you to enter as well as the fact your second character signup broke the "no fabricators" rule indicates that not only did you not read the rules, but you did not consider or care for them at all. The rules are in place to ensure that everybody has fun, all of the players and the GM. The fact you disregarded them seemingly to continue trying to be the best person in the room does not paint a pretty picture.

All of these, plus the fact you are getting snippy at us for denying you since you refused to play by the rules in a game that outright advertises it has a set of rules, leads me to conclude that you are a powergamer. And given I am responding not to a specific post you made asking this, but a post you edited to try and make us, the GMs, look bad for doing our jobs, I am not inclined to assume any more good faith on behalf of somebody who isn't acting that way.

For these reasons, I do not want you here.

If this how I came across, apologies. It wasn't my intent to target any of the G Ms, but this is how I legitimately feel when you're discussing about letting me in or keeping me out. I am sincere in my words and do say them in good faith. Goodbye.

Voting for Rai, though I do stress that every option right now looks very good.
