BZPRPG News and Discussion

[Voutok S'Tythe (Ray)]

When I first saw Nuju Metru post in Ga-Wahi, I got a little nervous. Now I'm just kinda interested in knowing what the Onu-Matoran are up to. Maybe attempting what that group of Sentinels did? Regardless, my paranoia was somewhat misplaced, but I guess you can't blame meI mean, the last time Nuju posted in Ga-Wahi in media res, a giant hole appeared outside the koro and an army of Rahkshi appeared.

I doubt there's anything to worry about.

 

Also, "in media res".

I have the feeling that eventually we should be more fearful of EW posts.

[Relapse]

If you don't fear them yet, you should.

If you don't fear them yet, you should.

I know, but......

 

Yeah.

 

I kinda don't right now.

[The Lorax]

You don't want him to take that as a challenge, do you?

[- JL -]

You don't want him to take that as a challenge, do you?

I doubt he will.

 

 

If he did do some sort of challenge, It'd be us who'd be challenged.

[Toatapio Nuva]

Good. It was getting boring in Ga-Koro.

 

What's the status of that diving team? It's been ages.

[Relapse]

We're in the interview stage. So far, we've only gotten one done, and that's only because the player of the guy next in line has been absent until today. Things should smooth out to normal in a few days, and with any luck we'll be well into the dive by this time next week.

Well, I'm back after spending several hours fixing my modem.

 

And I find that EW has decided to step up his game.

 

Curse you JL.

In this thread: Me wondering why everybody is scared of EW.

[The Nold]

If you ask me, he has a loophole in the rule of having to ask permission to kill PCs: technically, sending somebody into a legend isn't killing them, so technically...

[shadow pridak money gang]

Except Stannis isn't one to misuse his mask randomly like that.

 

Tbh the only thing scary about EW is how scary good of a cuddler he is.

Still, just think, he's the only person in the RPG who can get rid of somebody for good(not counting bans and stuff)without asking them. It's just scary to know he has that within his power.

[Voutok S'Tythe (Ray)]

Also, "in media res".

Oh, sorry, that was a typo.

Well, what Tyler said, Plus, if I recall, that mask works in a way of "one thing goes in one thing comes out." So let's put it this way: Who would Stannis rather have trapped: 'ol Terri( /Makuta. I don't think it was ever made official the Makuta of this "dimension" so-to-speak was Teridax), or a character of JL's? Edited June 10, 2013 by Voutok S'Tythe (Ray)

[shadow pridak money gang]

He's definitely not the only person who can do that.

[Toatapio Nuva]

I wasn't scared before, but now I certainly am...

Wait, did Nuju and Tuck stop existing?

 

Nuuuuuu ;-;

[EmperorWhenua]

I would think the biggest loophole of that sort is that I, as staff, don't need permission to kill player characters anyway. Coupled with a staff character with no sense of morality, I'd expect that to be the biggest contributing factor of a fear of me, irrational or not. Stannis, however, has the upmost sense of morality; him going bananas is the least of your concerns.

I wasn't aware staff had the power to bypass that rule. I knew about bans and all the other punishment stuff, but not that. Thanks for the info. Edited June 10, 2013 by Toa of Awesomeness

I keep on forgetting that EW is staff now.

 

This is so strange.

 

Also posting should become more regular for me, so yay~

[Tabby: Toa of Cats]

Sometimes it's not even punishment-sometimes it's "You're fighting a staff character, you die. Sorry." I remember the battle of the Nui-Rama hive. Tons of carnage when Heauni showed up on the ground.

That's what happens when PCs attack plot-needed characters en masse.

 

Now we know to 1v1 all plot-relevant characters to avoid mass death.

[Wotz]

Now we know to 1v1 all plot-relevant characters to avoid mass death.

 

That way only one character gets to die.

 

...Yaaaayyy!

Except Dorian and Hiemalis both fought Heuani one on one and held their own pretty well.

[sunflower]

It's how such plot characters operate.

 

 

_{we know their weakness}

 

_{we'll get them eventually}

[Palm]

Your guys' fear of getting your characters killed is also implying that freaking staff would misuse their powers in a way that isn't unfair. At the Rama hive, Nuju made it clear that in attacking Heuani, you were likely to have your character killed. So anybody that died was completely aware that it could happen, and as a result: It was not because Nuju was being an insensitive jerk. It was because they attacked him knowing that could happen.Play smart and the staff won't over step themselves. It seems to be implied here that they sorta won't "play fairly" which is funny because part of the staff's job is to help us play fairly too. Don't be silly.

How, in all of Karzahni, is Kuhrin still alive?

Sorry guys, still busy with uni stuff. Shouldn't be too long. :/

I am having problems in real life at the moment, so I will be delegating more than usual and my activity will be minimal. My apologies.

I'm about to say this without reading the current RPG at large. This could become a hilarious death warrant....

 

 

I am shelving all PCs save 2: Ishi and Riaril.

[Voxumo]

If a character has a mask from last season that isn't on the list of approved masks, like a Mahiki, does it need to be run by the staff or would I have to kick them really hard in the face and give them a new mask?

Yeah i am quite curious about this as well

[They]

I second this notion, but for matoran. If a matoran has an "illegal" mask, does that matter?

[Canis Lycaon]

@Wotz and Vox: You have to kick them in the face and shove a new mask into it. If you have a Mahiki, then you have to get rid of it. Vox, this is going to be a little hard for you seeing as how your banned mask is an Anxilia.

 

I second this notion, but for matoran. If a matoran has an "illegal" mask, does that matter?

That is illegal. If the Matoran became a Toa, then they would have an illegal mask.

[BBBBalta]

Of course, it's simple enough to say that the mask is simply forged in the shape of an illegal mask but it has different "dormant" power.
