ABR Discussion Thread XXIX: Where we talk about bears....

[BRC]

I really, really don't feel like that, BRC. I just want to avoid this subject in the future, and I don't like the idea that my personal feelings of being upset can be declared wrong because of a comic.

I know you're trying to help, but please.

Pfft, who said anything about the contest declaring whose right and whose wrong. I'm not even going to attempt to solve that issue.

This is more along the lines of a way to blow off steam and ease tension through friendly competition. Like two people who are mad at each other have a race, or play Mario kart or something. Nobody pretends that such a competition actually declares one side right and the other wrong, but the two people feel like they've had an objective way to oppose each other. At best, the debate is over (It's been over for awhile) and residual bad feelings are gone. At worst, it was still fun!

[Darklord Bright]

I really don't think I have the willpower to do a comic after this. Grem will win by default. Contemplating handing management of my plot and my characters over to Singuin. I just don't wan't to deal with the drama anymore.

I know it seems like an overreaction, but Grem, you've honestly been seriously upsetting me for quite some time now, and I really don't want to deal with this anymore.

Meh, it seems like a bad idea to judge it, then. Just let both people post their comic.
/\ I'll not bug you about taking the argument too seriously. That'd be a pot calling the kettle black.
It's fine, but do you mind if I do a RK/RS anyways?

Woah, were not talking immediate, like "You have to have this done by tonight". You'd get a week at least, if not more.
However, you seem sad, have a Commiepuppy, it will cheer you up.

Go ahead. Besides, you knew how seriously I was taking it about a month ago when I told you up front and you said you would keep doing it anyways.

I'll still be in other plots, I just don't want to deal with CoN anymore. I love the plot, but I never wanted this.

[-skimmer-]

Awww, a commiepuppy

Please do not leave CoN. I promise to drop the Ogre debate if you stay. I just value this plot a lot, and take any disagreement about it personally. Please do not leave.

[BRC]

Awww, a commiepuppy

Now available in the alignment of your choice



Also, the enemies of the People did tremble, for they saw their doom approaching

It's not my plot anymore.

[BRC]

It's not my plot anymore.

You make the commiepuppies sad.

[Silverraptor]

It's not my plot anymore.

This is all my fault isn't it. I had to accidently rekindle the argument between you 2... I was actually looking forward to working with you on CoN.

[Darklord Bright]

Sorry.

Back when I made it, I was looking forward to it, too. Things change. THe plot isn't what I imagined it would be.

[The Gremlin]

It's not my plot anymore.

FFF is KP's plot. FI will be MM's. They direct it as best they can, which is what you do. Just because you occasionally have to argue about one aspect or another doesn't mean that that has stopped.
Even if it isn't your plot, you didn't start it so that you could have your own plot. You started it because you thought we needed a high fantasy plot. And because you liked the idea of a new world. Does whether or not it belongs to you that important?
/\ Has it really changed that much?

[Silverraptor]

Sorry.

Well what's wrong? What happened? Maybe we can resettle this.

[Darklord Bright]

I'm really sorry to everyone involved in it.

Just... don't let it die because I left, okay? Do me a favour and keep it running as best you guys can.

[The Gremlin]

If it has changed so much, have you no interest in what it is now?
I will not let it die. This has always been my favorite plot. Yes, I argued. But I never wanted you to leave.

[Silverraptor]

Sure...

Just atleast consider about coming back eventually. Remember what I have planned between you and me.

[The Gremlin]

This is a big decision, DLB, and should not be made in the heat of an argument. Wait. Take a break. We can pick up the slack. I think I'm going to do this the same way I revive my favorite PbPs:
Hey! Who is still interested in this! If you are, say so. If you aren't say so. We have to figure out who to cut out.

[kpenguin]

FFF is KP's plot.

This is what bothers me the most about FFF:R's hiatus.

I took a break from making comics after cranking 20 comics over the course of a week and nobody else except Siniguin and Q made a comic.

I don't want to be the director of FFF:R anymore than I was the director of FFF.

Gonna quote 'cause I made fancy font changes!

[Darklord Bright]

Sin, if you need tips on personality stuff, just PM me until you don't need my help with it anymore.

It's a big decision I've been mulling over for a while. I didn't just decide it, this just... tipped the scale.

Wait, is SP getting control of the plot?
CURSES! My plan didn't work!
That's right., kids, Gremlin has been planning this coupe for years! When DLB was vulnerable, he started an argument, and sure enough, DLB decided to quit CoN! Will his evil plot work? Find out next time, on the ABR Show!

I want to make comics, but it's hard, you know? I barely have enough time for my own fancomics!

Will do, if CoN ends up coming back.

I'd really rather you didn't leave CoN at all, though...

[Falgorn]

Well, I've got news. It might be good; it might be bad. Depends on how you look at it.

Well, I'm officially not making comics anymore. Not like I ever did, but what the hey. Now it's official.

Oooooh!

[Falgorn]

Oooooh!

I'm sorry, -skimmer-. You wasted a lot of time on me. It wasn't worth it.

I'll probably be back, when I get motivation and/or time.

[Lyinginbedmon]

Pretty much the same here for me, though I tend to have more time here at Uni than I initially consider.

Right now the only reason I'm not in FFF:R at the moment is because the intro comic for Lying is fairly huge and I'm waiting for an appropriate moment to drop him in so he's not just sitting around in the waiting room for time on the main stage.

[kpenguin]

But... he's a mattress salesman.

[Lyinginbedmon]

But... he's a mattress salesman.

You can keep saying that but it doesn't make it any truer than saying "Rangiramon is a potion saleswoman" or "Richard is a sadistic undead warlock".

Sure, it's true in a blunt sense, but it's not nearly the full extent of the character.
