Daiki was right about a resolution, but as Gray said he had school stuff so communication was impossible till seemingly now.

GM Ruling

Due to the resent situation, I, after talking with the admin and mods, have come to a ruling.

Right now, for a week in real time starting today, I want both Lantzblades and Gray to take a break from the RP.  No posting in character until the week's time ends next Monday.  I have been a very lenient GM so far and it has caused problems for everyone around.  Unfortunately, Daiki quitting has opened my eyes.

So, for the week neither Lantzblades or Gray cannot post In Character in the RP.  Consider your characters benched.  Luckily though, this suspension is real time and not in game time.

Godmoding and Meta-gaming are against the rules nor are they an acceptable solution to fix problems in game.  If anyone has a problem with something that someone is doing in the RP do not godmode or meta-game around it. If that does not work attempt to contact the other player via Private Message or skype or whatever.  If you cannot solve your problems like adults, then come to me about it.  If I'm not on Skype, PM me.  Unfortunately I have both a 40+ hour a week job as well as writing commitments to keep ahead of so I'm not on 24/7.  However, I will take your problems into account and make a decision based upon that.

Lantz and Gray, we'll see you in a week.

If I catch anyone else Meta-gaming or Godmoding at this point I will hand out temporary suspensions and if it keeps happening I may have to kick the offender out of the RP proper.  I do not want it to come to this, but I've been very lenient so far.  It's caused me to lose a very excellent player.

Daiki, you'll be missed.

As for me, I will be returning. ...But will yet again be delayed by taking a rest for the sake of my own health. I will try to post as soon as possible, but I cannot say for certain at what time. My apologies for yet another delay of this sort. Hopefully there will be a lapse in the drama so I can recover properly this time.

...Also, Daiki, if you ever come back and read this, please come back to us. We miss you already.

[Gray]

I don't think I took him over I just had the momentum continue from the previous post but I can see how it can be seen as cheating now and I regret that decision now. I just wanted to end the back and forth between me and lantz and get to the conclusion I wanted to reach already.

Lantz do you know what would have happened. Grim would have attatched to Satoshi try to read his memories and abilities and would have friggen bsoded after trying to download even just the cliff notes a few million years. I would have instead searched for powers manually found Avalon and the dragon contract. While I could bypass avalon's healing in the same way that a symbiote could bypass spiderman's spider sense. I'd have instead looked at the dragon core. I'd use a little classic Zouken and eat some dragon cicuits (congrats you lose half a percent of your full capcacity, weep tears of sorrow) and buggered off somewhere else.

If you angered Grim enought I would have eaten the whole core and made you a magical cripple. I wouldn't gain immortality due to Avalon only working on king Arthur and the requirement for me ripping it away from you and Grim not even knowing how (he couldn't get it due to aformentioned bsod at attempts to read satoshi's ridiculously large memory banks) wouldn't be able to get that magical energy,


As of now I think I'll just have Grim run away and screw with someone elses plans. I want stuff to be dynamic not just have everyone try to railroad their own plots.


With Forest in the house now I have to run because Grim is smart enough to know 2 vs. 1 with one of them having his weakness are not good odds. Maybe I'll try ressructing a corpse or something.


Alice do you have some health issues? I understand it wasn't my fault entirely but I again don't really feel all to great aggravating those.

I think the problem here is in the last part of the last line. You wanted to get to the conclusion you wanted to reach, even though it was clearly one Lantz did not desire. Lantz was obviously not going to go along with that, hence the argument.

You need to work more with other players and make sure that the conclusion you're going for is one that you are both OK with, rather than trying to force your own conclusion on them even if it is one that they feel would cripple their ability to RP. Then you won't get these sort of problems.

Nah, it's just this sort of drama's been occurring for awhile when it concerns lantz's RPing, and basically I got fed up with it. It's been eating at my mental health for some time, sadly. What set me over the edge today is that it got to a point where it caused Daiki to abandon ship, which is again, not your fault at all. It's hardly your fault at all, so don't worry about it.

...That, and I managed to pick up something nasty today, bug-wise. ^^" Unless you're somehow able to magically send me pathogens over the internet, somehow I don't think that's your fault at all.

I have little positive to say on this situation, besides thanking Daiki for being fun to RP alongside and hoping that he isn't gone for good.

[Gray]

Can I still make character applications? Also an I do a quick bit about Grim running to recuperate and about Avdol passing out to explain the week gap of real time away.

I can say I saw a passing image of you while you were in the other world (nexus city seems to pull the magical towards it) and I collapsed at teh point you're set to reappear. I'll be mumbling in my dreams about healing them so if that could help you get some context.

[Kurogami]

So yeah...

Brahmastra, when are you going to reply to my post? It has been up for a while. Or did it get swallowed up in the sea of drama that I have been ignoring?

[Brahmastra]

Ill get to it. I need sleep.

[Ivan The Mouse]

Well, to be honest, I am not posting anything right now because of a couple reasons. One, I am letting my characters incubate their strength in the city for now. It's because their powers, mainly Rattus, come from money and connections rather than the supernatural, aside from the after mentioned practical skills.

Two, I don't really like the direction the RP is going right now. We didn't want aliens in the RP because we are afraid that the likes of Goku pwning everyone easily. Yet we are edging close or, I dare say this, going into this level. I mean, at least Goku had the decency to take his fights into the wastelands, without civilians getting caught in the crossfire of Kamehamehas.

So you can say that I am, as of now, in a semi-hiatus mode.

[lantzblades]

Since I asked Elf myself Gray, I can answer that. Yes you may make applications, you may also post here in the discussion thread. No you cannot for the time specified post in the RP thread.

[Kat]

If Daiki quitted permamently I assume that me and Mandible have to continue without him, right? What do you think about it, Elf?

You really don't need to bother. There are people in the compound who haven't posted in about 3 weeks, so you're only getting back onto our timescale anyway.

[Lycodrake]

Having spoken to Daiki via PM, he has told me he won't be returning to Cross Effects - and possibly even DSM.
