Vezok's Friend Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I just wanted to add my 2 cents and say: Just because the staff-plot affects the game the most does not mean other player-driven plots are any less good. Look at what EW has done with Ambages alone. Or the mark-bearer-plot. Those were/are great stories, all told by players. You can tell amazing stories within the framework of the game that hook in other players as well and suddenly you got something epic on your hands. You just have to do it. Once I find the time to get the Aitua-plot moving when the 2013 arc I just hope I manage just a fraction of the awesome of those other player-driven stories. And remember that unexpected things happen as well. Just my personal example: Leah started out as an NPC, she wasn't even a full character and was there so that I could give Sisk's chracter more depth, but in the end it seems it worked just the other way around ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuRon the champion Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Well Said, JL. The Matoran Team is inactive, right? I just need to check that.Matoran team is active, and getting ready to head towards Kini-Nui. "So at this rate do you suppose the "2012" arc will end this week? Just curious." "I doubt it. The Maru have to fight through the Manas, then the shadow Toa, then take care of Makuta. There's still a good two weeks left, I'd say, give or take a few days."I asked for something to be approved, and told to wait just a short while longer. I'd say a week, from an observational point of view... BZPRPG Characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

- JL - Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 The Matoran Team is kind of a group that'll simply get caught up in other plots. I made them with a matoran team in mind, not a plot. So technically, they're never inactive. They're just...out of a job. Also, 'le koro'. le.

Well, there really only is one huge battle, and it is in the most secluded place on the island, and no one knows about it. The higher members might be informed, but I doubt it, since Makuta had bigger things to worry about then telling rich businessmen his latest adventures. They really aren't reacting. Also, I haven't seen Emzee lately, so the CG actually hasn't done a whole lot recently. -------------- Tarrok | Korzaa | Verak | Kirik -------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I haven't seen Emzee lately, so the CG actually hasn't done a whole lot recently. The huge battle is taking place with people who were there already, or were logically close enough. Echelon and Utu were, I believe, already going there. Zauk and Aurum where there already; far earlier than Agni, Angelus and Joske even began their fight against Heuani. (hehe) Dalia and Verak I don't know as I didn't read the posts before their arrival in Kini-Nui, and Trivzan I know arrived due to him being 'one with nature'. The CG I doubt will actually know of it; Joske still has his light powers since his battle with Joske, and in that limited time the Maru already completed their tests and went underground. Makuta, meanwhile, is busy preparing for their upcoming battle, and Heuani is warming up alongside his Shadow Mata buds.

Coz I recall you being shot there. Also, a helpful hint - saying *shot* doesn't make your post suddenly sarcastic, it means you are either bad at sarcasm, which is just weird, or you're trying to make it sound like a big joke.....the effect being instead redirected to making YOU a big joke. If you keep on offending others, what you SHOULD do is first apologize, then stop doing it. Not make your offense a joke. That, and we aren't going to misinterpret text if they are easily interpreted as some form of sarcasm or internet humour. riiiiiiiiiight guuuuuuuuuys?

Eyru Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hold on a second. All we really so petty that we're jumping all over someone just because they choose to put "*shot*" in their posts? That is, without a doubt, the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on here.The GD topic, as has been explained more times than is worth counting, is for discussion of the game. If you are not discussing the game, you are off topic.Whatever happened to the rule "If you dislike something someone does, PM them"? That piece of common sense should apply everywhere, not just in-game. Calling someone out in public concerning an insignificant, inconsequential attempt at humour that just so happens to get your goat is not cool. It's petty and mean.Seriously. Stop it now.

Well, Utu is in the state he currently is in because of player plot...and I don't want to sound harsh, but if he's supposed to be Echelon's puppet, he's Echelon's puppet. It's not really fair and kinda lessens the effort to get the character to the point he is if him being a person trapped in his own body is dropped at the earliest convenience because it means his participation in the battle comes down to "standing around until Echelon says otherwise."
