I know the origin of 420, thanks. And seriously, why would I consider it a good thing?

It was a joke, CLY.

My explanation for why Asagi unconsciously started hating on Ma'reh for being a Mary Sue is that in my particular version of the Disgaea-verse aka the Netherworld, much like how Tau inherently have a great resistance to The Warp, demons/beings there have a great resistance to Mary-Suedom due to their unusual brain structure, aka how they view life as being a literal video game. Of course, Asagi is also a human with mental issues, so her inherent resistance is giving her a massive warning sign the entire time, causing mental distress.

Sound too meta to you guys?

Also, now's the point where it's bugged me for too long, due to having introduced another character; Dee Bunny really needs to get Avatars for her other characters.

Long as it doesn't break the Fourth Wall in game it's fine, just comes off as being Genre Savvy about a particular thing.

Speaking of Mary Sues, I hope Dee Bunny plans to get an avatar for this new one if she plans on keeping her around. So far her only avatar is Deanne's.

lol ninja edits.

I don't plan to break it, Oz. And it's more like finding a way to turn Genre Savvy behavior into actual explanations through things such as culture and society. Partially as a challenge for myself.

And yeah, I just noticed that new char of Dee Bunny's, why I edited it in...

In addition to the avatar issues, just WTF is a "harem girl outfit" anyway? It's not even a good description.

Are you not entertained?

I got no clue. I googled it and it came up with bellydancer outfits. But that barely does anything, as a sultan that owns a harem could dress his wives up as anything he wanted.

I am not even asking what she's doing as long as she doesn't try to railroad.

But yeah Rai that sounds fine.

@Rai: Go for it. Makes sense to me if you pull it off properly!

@Sapph: ...Basically, a skimpy outfit that shows off a women's...features. Really, why am I telling you the obvious?

And yes, Dee needs new avatars...

I hope my space core gag was not too annoying, I will post the video that inspired it soon. Might make it more funny if you get it. tongue

Dee needs to come in the discussion thread so she can explain what the heck she is doing.

...Not it.

...No, that's not the attitude one should take in this situation...

And Sapph, try to refrain from posting snipes at Dee Bunny in the main game thread because she annoys you. Leave it in the discussion thread instead. tongue

Yeah, I'm trying to ignore the stupid. Though I worry I'm contributing to it with Nichole caring about dead trolls and stuff. ('Though I'd say she has at least something of a reason, what with her still looking like Vriska and with her good friend Jacky reminding her a lot of Terezi it'd make at least a small amount of sense that she'd be concerned about those two. Or maybe I'm not making any sense.)

I find it best to either ignore it, or take it in stride, Sapph...

You're not contributing to it, Ozzy. Really. And Gear, at least you're trying and have actually managed to improve somewhat, so yeah, not mad at you specifically... at the moment, anyway.

Just... -sighs- I don't know. Seems I'm becoming way more ranty and mean-spirited lately.

Okay, lemme just give you some very simple instructions to help you relax, Sapph.

1. Pour your favorite drink of choice
2. Load up your web browser
3. In the first tab open up http://www.rainymood.com/
4. In a second tab load http://www.endlessyoutube.com/watch?v=DIx3aMRDUL4
5. In the last tab open http://www.endlessyoutube.com/watch?v=HMnrl0tmd3k
6. Sit back and enjoy being awesome

Seriously, try it out. It feels great.

Gear, just remember to try and keep your character development fairly reasonable and realistic. Having Kyle suddenly realize something is stupid immediately after being called out for it in the discussion thread is a bit... I'm not sure of the word I'm looking for. Convenient? Maybe a bit too meta? Keep in mind your character would not know about everything IC that you know OOC. Does that make sense?

I just try to soldier on. Yes, we can get snappy. Yes, we CAN be judgemental but we've simply got to vent it through other means and not at each other.

...I know I'm pointing out the obvious, but...

Hope you weren't expecting anything witty here. Maybe some day.
