[Nexus] OOC 27: I saw Moffy kissing Wolfy Claws

[The Bushranger]

Why So SRS HAT?

[Lady Serpentine]

Wait, I'm supposed to take a plan to attack places with Exploding Siege Sheep seriously?

*was not informed of this*

I can try, in that case...

[Reinholdt]

Moff is SRS about his silly. It's a talent I cannot say I possess.

[Moff Chumley]

If you walked outside one morning and a flaming sheep fell on you, I'd like to hope you'd take it at least a little seriously. I'm worried about you guys.

[Lady Serpentine]

You have a point there... Death/maiming by flaming sheep is still death/maiming, even if the cause is silly.

[The Bushranger]

I still say they need to be SHEEP THE SIZE OF A VW CAMPER VAN!!! though. >_>

[Terumitsu]

Singingnoodle. Can I call you Noodles as a nickname? I think that sounds kinda cool, actually.

Anyway, Noodles, that post in the Black Dragon's Den with the device was already stated to be directing the messages directly into Kirk's eyes through a projection system and it would be unseeable to anyone else unless they were reading his mind.. Which is godmodding in either instance.

Just letting you know in reference to that post of yours there

[Reinholdt]

I'm reasonably sure he doesn't read the OOC thread Teru. Might want to post it in BDD.

[Terumitsu]

I'll just use a PM in that case. Less obtrusive.

[Hattish Thing]

Noodles Has Arrived!

Singingnoodle I don't know if you have read things here, but it really seems you didn't.
See the post in the spoiler for futher instructions and if you have questions you could ask them here.

Okay, singingnoodle? I've been mostly avoiding your posts, since they were, up until this one, harmless and in threads I haven't posted in. This one though, and any like it, violates the rules Nexus FFRP follows about godmodding.

I'm not sure whether you have read much before jumping right in, but before you continue I recommend reading FFRP central's opening post, and anything else you think would help clear up what you've done wrong here.

Some good advice in general to follow.

1. No godmodding. You can say what your character does, but not how others react to it without the player's permission. If you haven't asked for permission, then assume you don't have it. It is always up to the reacting player whether or not something happens to their character.

2. Always use locations tags in threads that require them. Most of the bars don't, but otherwise it can be assumed that you should be using them. It helps clear up where your character is at all times.

3. Try to use proper formatting. It goes a long way to make your posts readable if you don't mash words together and keep everything on one line.

4. Perhaps add more description to your posts. This helps others decide whether or not they want to react to a character you introduce. It isn't necessary, and I've seen people get by without it, but it is a big help to people who want to know more about a character than their gender and what instrument they're carrying before they post.

5. Read the OP of a thread you intend to post in. It always helps to have a clear idea of where you're putting a character when you post, and what Out of Character rules the thread follows. For example, The Gambling League of Gambling requires people to submit to a search and hand over all weapons before entering. Your character showed up in the middle of a show plucking a fiddle with no buildup. Similarly Mallside is a non-combat thread, as well as Temperance Teahouse. These are things you can only find out by reading the opening posts of those threads, which explain things in more detail than I can here.

6. Happyturtle's links. Happy has provided two links to the tools you need to get started with FFRP, including the stickied FFRP Central thread I mentioned earlier. Both of these are great guides for beginners, or things to touch up on if you're foggy on the rules.

7. Have fun with it. There are rules yes, but it's still Freeform. Let it suck you in and you'll have a ball.

[TechnoScrabble]

Heh.

Lann may very well turn out to be the best worst warrior I've ever played.

"OH****EAWEREWOLF!"
*skewersmashstabkickbehead*
*chains werewolf head to belt*
"I AM VICTORIO-*vomitprofusely*"

This is what happens when a culture of mini deities expects a half-breed boy to be killing armies by the age of 10. He gets shy, doesn't earn himself any heads until he's 16 and in a bar in the NEXUS of all places, and then wigs out.

I wanna see the look on his face when he finds out what a werewolf is when it's NOT the full moon.

[Lady Serpentine]

Yay! I finallly, after far too long, got up a post in Inside, for Distraction Street.

Now I just have to hope that no-one kills me for what I'm doing with the Harvester, rather than being paranoid about that happening because I haven't posted! >.>

Watch Father Ted.
See how Father Jack reacts to anything?
I'd react like that.

Whoo! It's a good day for both of us!

...
Also, I'm starting to think that maybe I should update Johannes' character sheet, especially the 'Power Level' and 'Abilities' section, since apparently I've stopped treating his combat abilities seriously.

[bladescape]

Well...

I've thought things over, and with my lack of ability to find time, as well as my own slowly lagging enthusiasm for the plot, well, I'm not sure I'm going to finish the Skirmish Arc. I intend to keep doing Molodai, unless Murkas doesn't want to continue, but I would like to apologise for my own tardy and unkempt attempt at running the plot. :/ Especially to those who dropped because they couldn't keep following it properly.

(Also, because I need to relieve some of my depression, Reis has made an appearance at Trogs.)

[Gullara]

You took his combat abilities seriously to start with? =O

And now that you got me on the topic, I actually removed power level from my character sheets. Of course, my characters don't do combat all that often, but that's not really the reason. It's mostly for the same reason I removed alignment, you can pretty much determine how powerful a character is by reading the rest of the character sheet, namely the abilities section. Add that the scale only works best when applies to melee fighters and it is so easy for it to be inaccurate. So yeah, bye bye power level.

[Ashen Lilies]

WELL, when I first introduced him, he was never meant to be more than a slightly over-the-top fantasy hero. The upper limits to his strength would have been, say, bending metal bars and smacking people with tables.
...
Okay, and also tearing through a magical forcefield with his bare hands, but he was magically enhanced by one of his sword gimmicks at the time. Also, I think in every combat he ever did he actually ended up losing fantastically. Cal made him his bitch, Amor kicked his ass without breaking a sweat (not that Raistlin ever gave me any other option ) and Draken's old god thingy ended up consuming him without even knowing he was there.

Nowadays he's a goddamn superhuman who can hurl buses, take landmines to the face without blinking, get thrown into an anvil at about a thousand miles an hour and dent the anvil (In Soviet Russia...) and makes the very pavement his bitch. And this is actually tamer than what I was originally planning when I wrote that post, which was to have Johannes pull the entire road out from under the Titan like a tablecloth, and then attempt to wrap him in it. I decided that this was slightly too over the top.
...

So yes, I think it's safe to say that power creep has been an issue.

[TechnoScrabble]

So...remember that time I said the dodtenwyrm had a family?
And they lived near Inside, and might want to explore the weird big THING OVER THERE WITH ALL THE STUFF sometime?

Well...I think I'm gonna live up to that threat idea.

Starting with a baby, of course. The young adult was in and of itself almost the death of four dragons at once (six if you count Rebo's as three).

That magical force field tearing always did impress me.

Impressed Cal too. Probably why he took Johannes to begin with.

In terms of pure physical strength, Johannes will always be on top.

Well, folks, my laptop's crapped out on me. It'll be at least a week until I get one. Posting will be abysmal till then, as I'm relying on my phone and DSi (of all things) for it.

ohai, I'm back

Welcome back!

[Hattish Thing]

Singingnoodle I don't know if you have read things here, but it really seems you didn't.
See the post in the spoiler for futher instructions and if you have questions you could ask them here.

How do I get my character out of the league? Delete the post?

[Eadin]

@Noodle:
Don't delete posts.
Just RP your character requesting to leave the league.

[Hattish Thing]

@Noodle:

Thank you SO much for help. Sorry for being incompetent.

[Eadin]

@Noodle
No problem.

Hi again!

[Zefir]

How do I get my character out of the league? Delete the post?

League? Don't know what you mean by that. I saw your posts and they leak a few things. Since it seems you are just a beginner in this I tried to give you a good hint. Please read the OP and look up the posts of others.
Oh and don't forget to make a blank line between the Location tag and your discription/talk.

And at least I'm just playing my char in AMEn so don't worry if he is a bit testy.

ohai, I'm back

Oh. Hello! It's nice to see you again. Not that I ever did more than see you in the first place (I believe that the closest we got to interacting was posting in Rebonack's splinter thread for the return of the Old Ones at the same time), but they were good, so...
