I for one welcome my Discord overlords.

I do not, however. I'm not going to be switching unless there is absolutely no alternative, and even then I will try to stick to Skype as far as I possibly can, at least until someone comes up with a more suitable alternative.

It has PC app. I don't have smartphone at all, yet it works splendid for me. Especially voicechats work so better.

Voicechats are literally irrelevant to our needs. I'm not sure why you act like it's a meaningful thing.

Skype completely doesn't work for people like Nachos and Mandy. YOLF reported five crashes a day. It's clearly dysfunctional client.

And Discord doesn't work for Franco. Also, Skype would work (for some definition of "work"...) for Names if he was willing to actually make an attempt to get it to work, rather than just steadfastly refusing. His stubbornness doesn't mean we are all obliged to move over to a platform the majority of us don't want to move to.

Yes, Skype is not brilliant, but Discord just doesn't do what we need. The way our chat works means that not reading scrollback is a bad idea, and Discord handles that so much worse than Skype does. It also handles notifications far worse, there's no way I could have Discord notifications active whilst I'm doing something else, they're simply too intrusive.

Sorry I couldn't post yesterday.  I was out all day and didn't have time to say what I am saying now.  For the record, my next few weeks will be kinda spotty in terms of posting consistency.  Until mid May ill probably be going between multiple posts a day and no posts.  However, ill do my best to do at least 1 post per day for each of my characters as I have been doing.

Names, please post Akatsuki and Alpha as soon as possible, too much time has passed since your last posts.

EDIT: Considering Franco is skipping out, then if you don't post soon I will retcon whole meeting with Akatsuki.

Sheet feedback:

Unless the doll creation is ridiculously impressive, the character's magic rank should be lowered. It's too limited to fit the description for High. Remove the letter ranks from the magic types, as they don't really mean anything in the context of the CE character sheets. Expand on the magic section and try to add relevant detail, since you go into specifics but don't really give any information that "he can make barriers and magic puppets" doesn't.

Unmotivated to continue unless someone wants to engage Aptera in interaction.
Otherwise might just remove him and make another PC.

You can introduce him any time you like, but whether he has anyone to interact with right now I don't know.

Hey Kat, could you please change your Petra post?

Rin put up a boundary field around her and Liseth to make sure they weren't seen, and Liseth did something too so they could be discreet before Rin put up the boundary field.

Unless Petra has some ability to see through the field, but I really don't think MR can cover that because it's not being directed towards her.
