That vi is also possible. Or short for "violet". Or all of the above.

That's kinda silly. We aren't even near temperate mountains, let alone tropical forested volcanoes.

Silly avatar trends.
Then someone should translate the results into English and post them online.
((No, it isn't anything that drastic. Just a program that procedurally generates a propaganda message out of pre-recorded snippets of Charles' speeches.))North Korea's CS department should try making one of those, except for their Glorious Leaders' speeches.

(( Emphasis on *that* character. It seems to me that the audience character GWG is playing has nothing to do with his waitlisted character, since there is no way a character with the provided background should have access to secret teleporting technologyWait, that wasn't obvious?))
And now that I've read a bit of this, this manga *reads* like an RtD. I assume due to its influence, it really feels like one of your RtD's specifically, but it just sort of reads like the sort of story that develops from a good RtD. I can almost see the rolls XDInteresting.
The influence on this game is obvious, but I can also see the influence on ER in general as well. The Gantz scoring commentary reminds me of a certain green speaking AI I know

« on: May 02, 2014, 08:43:05 am »Then how do you explain how all previous flashbacks showed her in whatever form she had at the time?Ciro has some pretty well established identity issues; imagining her current incarnation in place of an old life is hardly unlikely.I expect that it was a flashback; we've gotten bindings in past lives.Past lives where we've had the exact same appearance? Ie, same race/gender/class/visible gear? I doubt it. Dream seems more probable.
Quote
"Flashback" is something that you saw that happened in the past; "Dream" is here used as a kinder word for "hallucination". It's an important distinction.
Note the fancy blue hair; when previously seen, it was an indication of Ciro getting attuned to the Astral Influx (as well as Dangerously Genre Savvy in the case of the Yaos Fight) and the voices (i.e us, currently speculated to be past life incarnations.) Plus, when asked to authenticate, she responded with "Vi", which I believe to be either the name of the past life she was hallucinating or perhaps something more fundamental (I forget, did we establish whether Ciro is the sixth sibling yet?)
N.B I'm going to ignore semantics arguments on the difference between "flashback" and "dream."
Also dang we forgot to ask Cain about the voices. He totally said he knew about them!
I forgot to point something out (and I honetly don't know if it has been said already), but:That was more or less my interpretation.
What if "Vi" is actually VI, for being the sixth sibling?
It opens up the interesting possibility that everyone's wrong about who the target is. Not a likely one, but interesting nonetheless.
Wait. What if the Soul Binding is stored in the main menu or something?+1
Check Main Menu.

Holy shit, I think we made a miscalculation throwing Grate in there, guys XDOnly one of my characters is Grate. Geez, guys, get it right.
I have no idea what the name of that character was. He was only ever referred to as 'golden fat guy', for some reason XD

That's not how it works, boyo.Pretty sure it's in my profile. That's how I found out IT's age.
I'm not actually sure how old you are, but I'd feel fine with calling you "boy" either way.
*Looks at poll*And I hadn't even voted yet.
There are three people who say that they're GWG.
And people pretending to be me are second place at the moment, behind nanomachines, enigmas, and a last-place tie between me and nobody.

Dear everyone,
The ship's bridge has been secured by Team F, and Steve should be taking over the systems now. Our work is wrapping up here.
Probably.

« on: May 01, 2014, 02:16:43 pm »it could be that the time in the Void flows much more differently in the Warrens, and the OS uses this to make it seem like a dream after kicking us out, because we were alone.Assuming we were there at all. ffs implied that it was just a dream, what with Goom-Bess not even noticing us having entered the door or anything.
I mean, if it could kick us out, why can't it remove a trivial item from our inventory?
I expect that it was a flashback; we've gotten bindings in past lives.Past lives where we've had the exact same appearance? Ie, same race/gender/class/visible gear? I doubt it. Dream seems more probable.
Can I just say when we get a binding I'm +1ing giving it to Goombess, and -1ing giving to slog, because to be completely honest, Slog is kind of awful, he has no actual use and no personality so yeah...+1
