Erfworld thread IV: In memory of King Saline

[Legato Endless]

Am I the only one who actually wants Bunnie's crime to have been as serious as it makes it out to be, like revealing they can eavesdrop on any Thinkamancy communications in the world or something? I don't think making the Minds to be incredibly petty and spiteful over something minor - and all the other 'Mancers seem to be taking this extremely seriously - would suit the comic's atmosphere.

No. Bird and I agreed a few pages ago that the narrative would be enriched if Bunny's crime wasn't something minor and easily dismissed as the GMTTA being overzealously controlling.

I kind of like Baddie will post the thread as it's more unique personally.

So any more suggestions?

Erfworld V: V is for Vinny - Five! Five bats! AH! AH! AH!

Erfworld V: V for Vinny - Remember, Remember the 5th thread in Splendor

Erfworld V: Baddie will post the thread

[-D-]

Just Erfworld: V is for Vinnie. Write in first post anything you like, but I prefer simplicity.

Agreed on the latter, though I'm undecided between V is for Vinnie and V for Vinnie.

I guess it depends...

on what the meaning of 'is' is.

Is... is that a Sesame Street reference?

Yeah. I dunno why, it just felt right.

I like the Baddie one with a slight tweak--

Erfworld V: Baddie will not post thread

I like the "not" because:
1) Most of of the commands given to Bunny were "not" constructions
2) It creates a bit of irony--implies that Baddie was instructed not to post, but did it anyway. This doing-what-you're-not-supposed-to theme fits Bunny's narrative.

Also, I prefer cutting the "the" before "thread" to match the clipped diction that the Great Minds are using in the scene.

That's...a significant improvement. Vote changed. Baddie Will Not Post Thread.

It's good, but I would stay with Vinny.

[The Glyphstone]

I'd like to propose one more tweak - make it Baddie Will Not Post In Thread.

I like that. Makes each post an anti-authoritarian act.

Only if you are a Baddie.

[Narkis]

I still prefer V for Vinnie.

Hey, it is cool to be bad.

I kinda want it to be the kind of awkward thing that tears at the souls of the readers as to if Bunnie was in the right or not.

[EnragedFilia]

I'd like to propose one more tweak - make it Baddie Will Not Post In Thread.

Dropping the definite article from the object like that is contrary to two of the examples in the comic, however ('baddie will drop the satchel.' and 'baddie will not enter the portal.')

[guttering flame]

it can be: Baddie will not post

[Aquillion]

Hey, it is cool to be bad.

It's so bad.

I think her crime will be both minor but significant. She'll be the equivalent of someone constructing a small scale atom bomb, and GMTTA will be against publicly disclosing it because they know someone will make an atom bomb. Parson being from our world will recognize the advantages outweigh the cons, and use it, pissing off GMTTA.

Like this twist. Seemed that the Great Minds were making things difficult for themselves with Baddie ostracism, but it turns out that that might just be the leverage they need. Neat.

Also, Bunny came off more formal and serious than I expected, given her signamancy. Though there's certainly adequate reason for her to be in a serious mood.

Bird, we've gone over to the new thread, as we've reached page 50. See the post above yours, for the link.
