(Roll: 3 + 5 Persuasion) Did you really think it was going to be that easy?
Ooh! Ooh! Pick me!
No.

Kindly inform wisps we are not interested in passing. Set up camp and invite them for a fine round of PLOT EXPOSITION.

You lack the requisite S'mores ingredients!

can we bloodshape the s'mores?
How large a font do you want that "No!" in?

Keep trying. We'll eventually get a good persuasion roll.
Hah, no.
((Heh. My thoughts were echoed by freeform..."Insanity Bonus"...probably shoulda been a flat -5 per attempt or something, though...))

"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Or was it trying to recruit brainless Wisps? Damnit, I'm getting old."

Another Lichenstein quote!
To the TV Tropes page! Lichenstein has two lines and a name, he must be important!

Anyways. Attempt combat!
1. Ciro shoots a wisp.
2. Cherish smacks or pokes a wisp with what's left of the spear.
3. Goom-Bess uses that Mega-Stomp thingy if there are multiple wisps left, or Normal-Stomps the survivors if only one is.
4. Should combat be completed, check Skill Tree.

We make for amazing heroes... :P
As in, "Amazingly, most of us are still alive!"

XD
Learning anything from Bay12 is NOT advised :P
Untrue! Our scientific debates are marvelous!
You shoulda seen the Bay12 Space Program...not much theoretical stuff, mostly (im)practical applications...

I've only learnt how crazed everyone is here. It's like the place for all chaotic neutrals and chaotic evils to go to. I'm a bit of an outsider as just some crazy guy who likes to help but blow stuff up from time to time. :P
Ahem, Pragmatic Good here?

If those are the stats of our ally, how hideously powerful is the shifter?
...Oh crap! ...Hey scap... mind if i ask if your writing up the combat now?
Tomorrow since today I had to visit the grandparents who are losing it so I'm a bit bummed out right now.
Okay. Looking forward to it. Sorry about your grandparents.
Same here.

Say, are we doing anything? I should get going, and will probably be back in a few hours.

Could you lock whichever thread is the wrong one, please?

((The "This thing was a big miscommunication that everyone had a part in" was what I've been trying to support ever since I realized that Irony wasn't doing what I thought he was doing.

And I forgive you.))

"Certainly. And I'm more interested in finding the Crown than non-papal ogres or elves."

Wouldn't a simpler, more direct rule work better?

Or, better yet, improved rules for such situations. Hit-and-run is realistically pretty good, but it has some drawbacks. Why not simulate the drawbacks? Maybe penalize combat actions taken in a turn where you're running.

((I don't know why its continuing past the point which Irony states its his game, and the rules are pretty defined from that standpoint...
((Because you people keep insisting that the wrong was all on me, when it was in fact shared.))
((You didn't understand the system and immediately began arguing that it needed to work a certain way without listening to any argument against what you had already thought up. Irony REPEATEDLY told you that you wouldn't need all the components of an ecosystem for things to work, and assuming you'd have to create things as a 1:1 to earth perfecctly given the pace of the game makes no sense to me. Repeatedly you were told you would not need to go to such extremes to have a working ecosystem. You didn't seem to listen, take in, or try to understand any statement that contradicted yours, and you held on to " we need all of these insects and worms because that's how it works on Earth and that's how life is and yaaay" no matter what we tried to do. If you still insist that's how things have to be, then wait till your next turn and try to do something then, and let the major gods work out how the game works and try to wrap around that. Don't be suprised when Irony denies your ability to create thousands of distinct yet mundane bugs in a single turn, though. It's not how the game works.))
((I was misinterpreting his saying that as saying that ecosystems didn't need thousands of species to function. This was because I thought that he was applying more than basic ecological laws to this game's reality, due to various things he had said.))

Don't reply to this. Don't reply to the others.
((You don't know me well, do you?
You basically called me an idiot, said I was completely wrong, said that it didn't matter that I don't think all the blame was on me, when I was apologizing and making compromises. You then tell me to not reply.
Yeah, not happening.))

Quote
no more demanding the game works a certain way,
((I wasn't demanding, or at least I wasn't trying to. I was trying to suggest that the game work in a manner different than how I thought it did, and backing up my suggestion.))

Quote
no more ignoring the other players,
((If someone claimed that anything could live no matter what, we would both ignore him. I only ignored you because of what I thought the GM was saying and how it contradicted what you were.))

Quote
Ask, and take the answer at face value.
((Um, my taking the "no bacteria" comment at face value got us into this mess...))

Quote
Drop your expectations of how you think it should be when you ask, and if the GM dosen't SAY it needs to be a certain way (in a god game, at least) then take that at face value and leave it alone.))
((The problem was, he didn't say it. Or, rather, he didn't say it clearly until the debate was well underway.))

"He requested that I attempt to find the Royal Crown, and to investigate elves and non-papal ogres. I was planning to focus on the former. And I'd prefer that you not refer to the king as 'that idiot'..."

Where did "Iron Mandarin" come from?

I mean, "Green Mandarin" had some sense behind it. The Green Lantern and the Mandarin both have rings of power, and the Green Lantern's ring was originally Oriental in origin. (Made from a Chinese lantern or something like that.) It kinda makes sense for someone who hasn't read comics or paid much attention to them to confuse the two. But Iron Man and the Mandarin are not only completely unlike one another in origin and powers, they're also enemies.
