Oh god, I'm looking at an old forum of mine
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:16: 45PM)
We have a filter for cussing
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:16: 49PM)
What was it?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:17: 26PM)
"Before: Bullshit. After: Bollocks"
"Before: cunt. After: Keanu Reeves"
"Before: fuck. After: Keanu Reeves"
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:17: 50PM)
You're a Keanu Reeves D:?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:17: 55PM)
lol
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:18: 05PM)
It was an injoke all the creators had
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:18: 13PM)
The forum was supposed to be made for an RPG
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:18: 28PM)
We joked about the backstory being like the Matrix
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:19: 24PM)
lol
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:19: 37PM)
So, whoever the admin was that set the word filter set them to Keanu Reeves
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:19: 50PM)
I lost.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:20: 21PM)
My friend and I said we'd try to bring the forum back.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:20: 32PM)
We never got anywhere, but we had like a 20 member base
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:20: 39PM)
Which was how many years ago X3?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:21: 08PM)
Almost two
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:21: 14PM)
Ouch
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:21: 30PM)
Well, the creators all had a falling out
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:21: 38PM)
Fallout
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:21: 56PM)
One figured that she had the proper authority over everything because she made most of the backstory
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:22: 10PM)
Kusy, anyone?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:22: 14PM)
Another had college start up and had lots of family troubles
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:22: 30PM)
I myself got aggravated at the memberbase because they wouldn't tell me what they wanted.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:23: 07PM)
The forum was originally created because of a catalyst effect that ripped apart another RPG forum that had been around for about three or four years prior
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:23: 42PM)
So, it was up to us to come up with a new palce for people to hang out and power level
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:23: 51PM)
Thus, we created Shihirin
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:24: 42PM)
shiririririn
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:25: 21PM)
The initial idea was that because we had all stemmed from a forum that was basically a turn based RPG where you RPed as video game characters, we'd create a sci-fi story that'd put players in the role of an average person who obtained powers of an "avatar" imprinted upon them
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:25: 40PM)
Ah
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:26: 11PM)
The initial backstory was that a starship full of people from Earth would run into troubles and undergo a bizarre experiment
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:28: 38PM)
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:26: 11PM)
The initial backstory was that a starship full of people from Earth would run into troubles and undergo a bizarre experiment
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:29: 01PM)
I got that
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:29: 06PM)
Sounds complex
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:29: 12PM)
The original backstory I created before the rest of it came to be was that the ship would be split into various zones that would shift and change ecosystems and environments, where during entry of these zones the people would shift into their chosen "avatar". Very VR themed. It'd basically be clan warfare of controlling zones of the ship.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:29: 53PM)
The second backstory was that Earth was pretty much destroying itself, so humanity's last vestige was placed in a starship that would land on the planet known as Shihirin
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:30: 55PM)
There, a city would be created by those woken out of stasis first, and the rest of the people would be placed inside living VR simulations where they live their lives in various eras. The experiment would be to see how society could best run itself.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:31: 26PM)
Hm
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:31: 54PM)
The final backstory was that the people would be woken up after being implanted with false memories, then placed within various ecozones created specifically for them based on different eras
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:32: 05PM)
Hm
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:32: 21PM)
INteresting...and...complex sounding D:
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:32: 26PM)
It'd make a great RP
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:32: 35PM)
If there was effort put into it, yes
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:33: 02PM)
Basically, there would be 16 zones split across four regions of the planet
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:33: 33PM)
In the crossroads of these regions lay two places: The city of Shihirin, and the site of the starship Far Horizon
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:33: 39PM)
...You know, I'm kinda wondernig what's really becoming of SoaH these days >>
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:33: 44PM)
Heh
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:34: 00PM)
I mean, most of the better or more popular people have all pretty much left
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:34: 21PM)
The RP forum is practically dead
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:34: 23PM)
It's why I keep wanting to make a side community made of the people we want around plus newbies we can find
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:34: 49PM)
True.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:34: 59PM)
Maybe use that as the backup when the main fails lol
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:35: 04PM)
Plus, we could have an RP forum that follows the rules of the majority
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:36: 52PM)
I'd go for it...as long as it didn't turn into yet another dramafest
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 06PM)
It's all find and dandy to let it happen every once in a while to kep things interesting
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:37: 11PM)
"No goddamnit, no fucking Star Destroyers"
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 14PM)
But if there's a figh ever other hour >>
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 24PM)
...Yeah. That's why I'm hating the whole
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 31PM)
'LULZ WHAT R SOAH LIKE'
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 39PM)
It's whatever I goddamn feel like it is D<
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 56PM)
You know how hard it is to have a flexible canon like that and have it make sense?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:37: 59PM)
Fuck, just leave it be
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:38: 31PM)
I'd just like it to be simple with its rules.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:38: 36PM)
It takes place in a Sonic-THEMED world
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:38: 45PM)
It is a large city
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:38: 50PM)
With shit around it
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:38: 54PM)
It does not have Star Wars or Mario or any other outside influences
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:38: 58PM)
There's a city floating in the sky
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:39: 02PM)
it has many ecozones
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:39: 16PM)
There's furries
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:39: 23PM)
And I don't get what Stroup was whining about his Star wars ATST
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:39: 34PM)
I mean, c'mon, who cares anyways
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:39: 36PM)
These furries, as chosen by the community, are either loved, hated, or a combination of both
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:39: 44PM)
We decide if vigilantes are good or bad
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:39: 44PM)
You can just bullshit it came from some where else
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:39: 54PM)
And yeah, that's what I was trying to say in my points
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:40: 19PM)
I mean, there's very simple points I want targeted.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:40: 38PM)
And one is that we don't just go "OH HEY LET'S THROW IN BATMAN AND STARWARS AND PREDATOR"
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:40: 55PM)
Not that I've seen anything Batman related in SoaH
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:41: 02PM)
Copyright stealing is bad mkay
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:41: 31PM)
Maybe just sum it up into a general 'no recolours' rule
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:41: 43PM)
...Well, somthing a kin to it, but you know what I mean
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:41: 55PM)
I don't mind recolors as long as it really isn't part of another universe
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:42: 08PM)
You want a giant mecha, fine, don't call it a Gundam or have it related to such
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:42: 28PM)
You want alien invasion, fine, but don't call the Gravemind in to settle things
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:42: 35PM)
Heh heh
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:42: 35PM)
and such
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:43: 32PM)
Yeah, I think that'd be the biggest rule
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:43: 44PM)
Then general midgar appies
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:43: 48PM)
applies*
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:44: 04PM)
I mean. why fight over something that trivial?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:44: 21PM)
That's what I planned on getting rid of with my topic
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:44: 22PM)
'OMFGZ WATER LOCKS DUZZ NOT WORK IN REAL LIFE SO IT CAN'T EHRE'
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:44: 25PM)
To get rid of trivial maters.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:44: 37PM)
*matters
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:44: 39PM)
Real Life =/= SoaH. ur doing it wrong, Akiri D<
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:45: 44PM)
I mean, I know Akiri is a detailfag, but COME ON
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:45: 49PM)
At any rate
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:45: 50PM)
Akiri is synonymous with boring
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:45: 54PM)
I couldn't care less what they come up with
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:46: 02PM)
I could*
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:46: 16PM)
Because in the end it won't effect how anything is run anyways
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:46: 35PM)
If anything it's needlessly putting people off from RP entirly
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:47: 18PM)
But that's how they want it all
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:47: 53PM)
And apparently if it's not their way, the rest of the forum is too controlling and like the clique
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:48: 21PM)
GOSH how ironic
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:48: 30PM)
It's the clique all over again
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:48: 37PM)
And what's worse is that they don't even realise it
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:49: 45PM)
I feel I should blatantly point this out to said people
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:52: 16PM)
It's kinda weird though
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:52: 27PM)
They aren't ragey at all.....it's like..
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:52: 35PM)
...a passive-aggressive clique
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:53: 51PM)
Quite
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:54: 02PM)
And passive-aggressive is the absolute worst
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:54: 34PM)
Exactly.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:55: 34PM)
Aww man, looking at all this Shihirin data is making me squee inside
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:55: 47PM)
Really good stuff.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:56: 13PM)
My friend and I, who wrote the full storyline Shihirin was going with, have been contemplating a new RP project
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:56: 46PM)
Oh? Maybe I can help?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:56: 52PM)
Perhaps
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:57: 02PM)
I'll give a basic overview and what backstory we've thought about
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:58: 02PM)
In basic, it's a sci-fi RP that takes place in a very politically controlled world, with the player characters having certain superhuman powers
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:59: 14PM)
The backstory has a corporation and its associates wanting to perform illicit genetic experiments on people, and so colonize a planetoid for themselves.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (6:59: 31PM)
I have to go make dinner. I'll be back in an hour or so, mkay?
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (6:59: 35PM)
Sure
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (7:02: 11PM)
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says:
I think it doesn't really matter where shit is, as long as it's consistent to other people in that RP
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (7:03: 17PM)
Referring to SoaH, of course
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (7:03: 26PM)
The genetic experiments create people able to commit superhuman feats, each specialized to a specific means. Some people are altered to the point where they become the ultimate assassins- They can camouflage themselves, phase through solid material, become soundless. Others may be able to harness powers of flight or super strength or etc.
The PolterGhost - "Protomen: Unofficial band of SoaH" says: (7:03: 38PM)
and I'm still spitting out information
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (7:03: 49PM)
Still gotta have dinenr
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (7:03: 52PM)
Bye D:
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:26: 06PM)
THEY SAY
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:26: 08PM)
THIS CITY
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:26: 12PM)
SHE'S BEEN DEAD FOR YEARS NOW
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:26: 27PM)
Shut up with your Protomen crap
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:26: 44PM)
I haven't even heard of it until you potheads starting singing like it was your bible
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:27: 19PM)
It's the unofficial band of SoaH
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:27: 26PM)
The official band is of course The Offspring
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:30: 21PM)
WE WILL STAND IN THE LIGHT
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:30: 24PM)
WE WILL STAND IN THE LIGHT
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:30: 26PM)
YOU AND I
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:31: 38PM)
I WILL SHOOT YOU
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:31: 41PM)
IN THE FACE
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:31: 43PM)
IN THE FACE
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:31: 48PM)
WITH MAH SHOTGUUUNNN~
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:33: 11PM)
Hey, this is fun =D
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:33: 48PM)
So where did I leave you off at?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:33: 57PM)
I dunno
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:34: 10PM)
This old MSN doesn't have Plus or chat logging
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:34: 42PM)

Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:35: 26PM)
And then: the obligatory downside
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:35: 49PM)
The trick is that these experiments are completely mind controlled and programmed by the corporation and associates to do their bidding
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:36: 14PM)
Unfortunately, the conditioning may wear off after a little while.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:36: 58PM)
Some of the associations make use of this to see if they can intergrate superhumans into society. Others send hit squads after the experiments.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:37: 51PM)
Mmmhm
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:37: 57PM)
The issue is that none of the associations has the same agenda, so they all work in tandem on different things trying to wrest power from one another
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:38: 30PM)
Oh, so each ahs there own little superarmy and such
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:38: 33PM)
And they battlez
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:38: 56PM)
The main trick is that they try to keep this out of the eyes of the public
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:39: 19PM)
Isn't it cool how I summarize your tl;drs into one sentence =3
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:40: 16PM)
So it's all political warfare, filled with bureaucrats and assassins and little private wars
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:40: 35PM)
Corporations fight each other for victory
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:40: 40PM)
Or power. Same thing.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:40: 53PM)
At any rate, this is very intriguing, especially if it's pulled off right =o
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:41: 00PM)
One question though
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:41: 09PM)
The population.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:41: 31PM)
Consists of...what D:?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:42: 17PM)
Colonists who were lead to believe it was an industrial star
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:42: 25PM)
No nonono
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:42: 32PM)
I guess I should have been more specific
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:42: 45PM)
Furrys or not
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:42: 49PM)
Oh
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:43: 05PM)
Non furry
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:43: 22PM)
The only furries that may exist are in the experiments
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:43: 43PM)
Hm. Alright, just wanted to clarify that
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:44: 28PM)
This and Shihirin fall under the concept that humans are the only thinking race.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:44: 41PM)
Alright...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:44: 53PM)
...Ugh. I haven't RPed a human in like....ever, actually >>
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:45: 04PM)
Well, it's not much different, I would suppose
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:45: 14PM)
..Well, no. I had hobo boy. He was interesting, but greatly underused
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:45: 16PM)
Unless you're like me and you actually care about the animal part of the furry
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:45: 35PM)
Not really.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:45: 47PM)
It's more of an excuse to get ragey more often
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:45: 58PM)
Animal instincts olololol
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:46: 10PM)
Plus interracial stuffs
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:46: 28PM)
Or the fact taht fuzzy stuffs is soft, mmm
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:46: 39PM)
....Kidding, lol
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:46: 58PM)
But anyways
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:47: 11PM)
I think I might considering signing up for this....but I may be a bit rusty >>
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:47: 32PM)
Not to mention consistently busy. Last year of high school and all
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:48: 05PM)
Oh, I see you also don't fall under the old concept of "The last year is the easiest"
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:48: 08PM)
Bunch of liars >.>
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:48: 27PM)
Yeah D<
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:48: 30PM)
Anyways
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:48: 44PM)
Interesting.....but I might be a bti busy for it
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:48: 57PM)
Not to mention I haven't made a proper character in years
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:48: 59PM)
Well, no idea when or if we might start working on it.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:49: 25PM)
I'm also entertaining the thought of that and Shihirin running concurrently
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:49: 34PM)
Perhaps Shihirin being a sort of sequel to it
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:49: 49PM)
I thought they were the same?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:49: 55PM)
....Ohhhhoho
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:50: 17PM)
You could have the corporations work together to send their experiments off into space as a last vestige of hope, etc
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:51: 08PM)
That, or if they destroy themselves then maybe someone will take a look at their records and see the progress they made.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:51: 51PM)
Then go ' Ohshi we're gonna die anyways might as well make superhuman clones'?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:52: 16PM)
So, obvious player characters for the RP would be the "awakened" experiments, the ignorant human populace, and perhaps maybe people in the companies.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:52: 56PM)
Then when we move onto the sequel, the experiments would be shipbound to fuck nowhere?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:53: 15PM)
I would think that the companies and the "dazed" experiments would require proper authorization so that people can get filled in on what they should and shouldn't know and let other people know about
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:53: 40PM)
Ah, yes.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:55: 26PM)
SOAH
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:55: 29PM)
IT LIVES
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:55: 31PM)
ZALGO
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:55: 51PM)
Finally D:
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:55: 53PM)
Anyways
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:55: 55PM)
Holy fuck, it's slow
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:56: 28PM)
So players wanting to join up would have to request to do so, and exchange info for the experiment they want to play as, as well as be filled in on the role. Right?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:56: 37PM)
Yep
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:56: 48PM)
I'd assume that there'd be an interview process
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:56: 50PM)

Error D:
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:57: 19PM)
Apparently he filled the server
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:57: 33PM)
Spam bots?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:57: 46PM)
interview sounds good....and damn I wanna join this ;-;
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:57: 49PM)
Well, he was talking about forum pruning a little while ago
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:58: 06PM)
And there are two forums hosted on SoaH's server
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:58: 08PM)
plus music
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:58: 11PM)
plus programs
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:59: 09PM)
Shihirin is an interesting parallel given that it's about rebuilding society rather than exploiting it. Instead of the corporations, you now have the city of Shihirin and the underground dwelling Engineers
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:59: 31PM)
Engineers? You didn't tell me about that =o
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:59: 47PM)
The Engineers would be the antagonist force, if they were to be classified as anything.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:59: 49PM)
though i'd assume they're quite like Covenant ones, or even ones from ME
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:59: 52PM)
They're the guys the players want to heate.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (8:59: 56PM)
Oh D:
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (8:59: 58PM)
*hate
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:00: 05PM)
Why's that?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:00: 15PM)
I assume they control VR land?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:00: 37PM)
The Engineers were bestowed the power to alter the memories of anyone, as well as genetically alter them.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:01: 07PM)
They live under the city in a network of tunnels.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:01: 30PM)
On Shihirin, right?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:01: 34PM)
Yeah
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:01: 43PM)
They oversee the development of the Biospheres, the twelve zones that the experiments are brought to live in.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:01: 44PM)
So the city is already built?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:01: 58PM)
Or is there going to be a VR phase, then that one
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:02: 05PM)
Yeah, before the RP the founders of Shihirin made preparations.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:02: 32PM)
Most of the Far Horizon, their starship, was designed to be used as raw material for the city
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:03: 27PM)
A handful of men and women, the Administrators and the Engineers, oversaw the city's creation
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:03: 44PM)
So when they leave the ship, do they still have their previous memories?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:03: 48PM)
The Civilians were awoken from cryostasis afterwards in order to live there.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:04: 05PM)
The Administrators, the Engineers, and the Civilians are allowed to keep their memories
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:04: 23PM)
The Experiments have their memories shoved into the deep recesses of their mind.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:05: 18PM)
The Experiments had lifetimes of information put into their brains so that they would be prepared when the Biospheres were finished
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:05: 33PM)
Hm...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:05: 48PM)
God, I really, really wanna do this D:
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:05: 55PM)
It's just that awesome. Even in words.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:06: 06PM)
Any information that needs to be altered, added, or removed is taken care of by the Engineers in their underground facilities
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:06: 38PM)
Then they basically have a subway system that transports them to the North, South, East, and Western sides of the experimental area.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:07: 28PM)
Each of the four sections are the Biospheres, split into three smaller Biospheres called Chronospheres
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:07: 29PM)
Can different ecozones interact with each other? if not...is it possible to do so anyways, through unconvential means?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:08: 01PM)
The people of each zone know not of anything outside their zone
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:08: 24PM)
It's been implanted into their minds that there is nothing outside their dwelling area, and if there is it's vastly dangerous
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:08: 53PM)
Ah, I see
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:09: 04PM)
So Each biosphere is a specific envirnoment
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:09: 29PM)
The Chronospheres share that environment, but at different periods of time?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:10: 19PM)
The four Biospheres are split according to specific ages
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:11: 07PM)
North has three Chronospheres based on ancient times - One before history, one during the bronze age, and one nearing the fall of Rome, with the intracies in between each of them able to be implanted
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:11: 40PM)
The South contains the European Era, involving the Dark Ages, the Renaissance, and the discovery of the New World
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:12: 52PM)
The West is known as the world of yesterday, involving the Napoleanic era, the 1800-1900s, and modern day
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:15: 20PM)
lalalalala
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:15: 22PM)
The East is of "present" and future Earth, with the near future of computers and electronics and giant mecha, a sort of Cyberpunk dystopia, and the future's version of the Dark Age.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:16: 08PM)
Ohhh
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:16: 10PM)
All four Biospheres thus contain the twelve Chronospheres
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:16: 19PM)
Was gonna say, 'What's the East D:?'
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:16: 22PM)
Hm.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:16: 29PM)
Those Chronospheres then contain the Geospheres.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:16: 43PM)
...Oh boy
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:16: 50PM)
Examples would be the Middle Eastern empires and the European Empires within the Dark Ages period, etc.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:17: 25PM)
So, hold on a sec
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:17: 44PM)
Our the people limited to their Geospheres or Chronoshperes?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:17: 50PM)
Chronospheres
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:17: 56PM)
They can cross into Geospheres.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:18: 22PM)
Like, if you wanted to be a Crusader, you could go from the Mediterranean Geosphere into the Near East Geosphere.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:19: 01PM)
The planet is under constant terraforming by the Engineers in very key places so that it can be as close to history as possible.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:22: 26PM)
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:19: 01PM)
The planet is under constant terraforming by the Engineers in very key places so that it can be as close to history as possible.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:22: 49PM)
So essentially aging?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:22: 54PM)
The Experiments are also made to believe that a day's walk may have been a huge trek of miles.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:23: 32PM)
Hm.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:23: 49PM)
So their view of the world is that it's supposed to be relatively small
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:24: 07PM)
They're made to believe it's large
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:24: 11PM)
But it's not as large as they think
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:24: 24PM)
Mmmhm
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:25: 02PM)
Of course, some might catch on after a while, especially when their imprinted memories deteroriate as was with the old experiments.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:26: 02PM)
Once they start having dreams of flying machines and horseless wagons, it's about time to bring them underground for refitting
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:26: 18PM)
So the 'older' experiments would be pining to the newer ones that all isn't as it seems?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:26: 39PM)
...until then, yes.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:26: 39PM)
Perhaps, though the Engineers would stop that as soon as possible.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:27: 16PM)
Any Experiments that go where they're not supposed to also are sent for refitting, or if it's just necessary for life to go on as simply as it's supposed to
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:27: 52PM)
The trick is that they don't want unnecessary death, or that some things are really difficult to replicate
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:27: 59PM)
So technically the Engineers protect and hinder people?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:28: 18PM)
If you wanted a plague to strike, you'd shut down the mental processes of various people so that they would "die"
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:28: 28PM)
They would then be refitted and sent to a different Chronosphere
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:28: 43PM)
Hm. Interesting
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:29: 06PM)
Of course, if you need symptoms of the plague, you just create one and try to make it as non contagious as possible
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:29: 13PM)
Then you'd have people really dying
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:29: 49PM)
If in modern day we say that someone was sent on a plane off to war, you could do the same "killing" just as well.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:30: 03PM)
Hm...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:30: 13PM)
Nobody knows that there's no actual war, but hey.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:30: 33PM)
But wouldn't it be tedious to reprogram anyone related to that person?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:30: 45PM)
Why would you need to?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:30: 57PM)
You could have greiving parents
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:31: 04PM)
....Well, I guess it would depend on how this works...but ehn
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:31: 21PM)
You would just need to reprogram the one person.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:31: 22PM)
...hmmm...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:31: 34PM)
Or kill them
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:31: 37PM)
Everyone else would just know that they won't be seeing their boy/friend/worker any more
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:31: 54PM)
And...so...the experiments would lead normal lives then, aside from their alterations?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:32: 02PM)
Yep.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:32: 29PM)
And it'd be commonplace for people to have extraordinary ablilites...I see...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:32: 32PM)
It's a very meticulous experiment to carry out.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:32: 40PM)
.....What about these civilians you mentioned?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:33: 04PM)
The Civilians are made to believe that the experiments are for the better.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:33: 11PM)
Most Civilians live pretty upper crust lives
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:33: 34PM)
The issue is that they have no real power, aside from being elected as Administrators or Engineers.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:33: 48PM)
Those who talk against the experiments may end up one themselves.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:34: 02PM)
=o
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:34: 47PM)
Very tense life for everyone who wants to make it that way.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:35: 49PM)
Then you have the Clones.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:36: 04PM)
...Oy vay
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:36: 11PM)
Because you need to be able to have animals and such
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:36: 29PM)
So it's a very protected and seclusive society
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:36: 47PM)
Regulars on top, experiments on the bottom
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:36: 50PM)
Then there's the Clones developed specifically to be antagonizing forces for people living in the Chronospheres.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:37: 05PM)
Which is ironic, considering the latter has more physical power
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:37: 33PM)
A Clone is simple- Mindless, soulless. Controlled by being given very specific programs like a computer. Essentially zombies that act like humans or animals.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:37: 50PM)
And, not all the Experiments have superhuman power.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:37: 54PM)
So they'd simulate an outside world?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:37: 59PM)
Mmhmm
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:38: 13PM)
Only a select group of Experiments are altered to have powers.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:38: 13PM)
In the sense that 'lulz came back from the UK mate'
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:38: 24PM)
And the rest are...?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:38: 31PM)
Normal humans with altered memories
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:39: 04PM)
People need heroes to look up to.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:39: 20PM)
While some may be imprinted in their minds, sometimes you need a living legend to look up to.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:39: 29PM)
So they have greater morals than your average human
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:39: 53PM)
Whether good or bad is debatable, but all the same, right?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:39: 56PM)
Some may be designed to. Others may be cruel and malicious like some celebrities
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:40: 20PM)
That, and they are capable of performing superhuman feats.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:40: 49PM)
Need someone to act as a Houdini? Make it so that they can actually transmute their surroundings or transfer their body elsewhere.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:41: 10PM)
Need a Babe Ruth? Give him superhuman strengh and reflexes.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:41: 13PM)
Ah, see not crazy powers
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:41: 24PM)
Just something fitting to their role that they're not aware of
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:41: 44PM)
so not*
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:42: 12PM)
They all will believe that their powers are completely natural to them, and that there is nothing else to it. They are pinacles of humanity.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:42: 37PM)
All feats of magic and legend are made real.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:43: 00PM)
Perhaps the near-future environment could have actual superheroes and supervillains
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:43: 09PM)
And the people who use them think it's a gift, or entirely normal, right?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:43: 18PM)
Hm.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:43: 21PM)
Mmhmm
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:43: 41PM)
It seems ver complex, but would work well with a large enough following
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:43: 59PM)
Considering their's like....let's see...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:44: 12PM)
It's obviously not a SoaH-esque RP where you make one thread.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:44: 34PM)
- Experiments
- Clones
- Civilians aka Regulars
- Engineers
- Corporation leaders and lackeys
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:44: 54PM)
ALbeit this depends on which era we focus on
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:45: 24PM)
City era would probably include significantly less than the sequel Planet era
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:45: 34PM)
For obvious reasons
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:46: 05PM)
And, as a bonus, people from previous eras can fulfill similiar roles in the next
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:46: 08PM)
Nice thing you can do with the clones: Make mythical beasts or alien invaders or whatever you need for your environment.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:46: 21PM)
Corporation leaders would become Administators or Engineers
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:46: 45PM)
I think the Clones would be better as a led by one person
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:47: 03PM)
Individuals would be too difficult, obviously
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:47: 13PM)
Each Chronosphere contains the following:
-Superhuman Experiments
-Experiments
-Clones
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:47: 27PM)
The City contains:
-Civilians
-Administrators
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:47: 30PM)
- Civilians >>"?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:47: 42PM)
And the underground consists of
-Engineers
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:48: 14PM)
Right...I think we should be thinking in terms of starting out in the city, or starting point of this whole RP
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:48: 43PM)
If that picks up, we can easily transfer roles to when they take off in the ship
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:48: 46PM)
Starting point? Let's just say that the board the RP is posted on...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:48: 51PM)
...well, the board IS the RP
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:49: 00PM)
No no no, what I mean is
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:49: 20PM)
We should discuss the prequel before the sequel, hm?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:49: 38PM)
The city with it's Corporations, I mean.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 00PM)
See, I was just thinking of having the two run concurrently, with it being knowledge that the results of one leads to what happens in the other.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:50: 10PM)
If we eventually build up a nice userbase, then we could move onto the Shihirin-based sequel
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 16PM)
Ah
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 19PM)
Yes
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 21PM)
That could work
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:50: 26PM)
Well...I'm saying that it'd be bad to do it at the same time >>
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 30PM)
Start with what takes place beforehand
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:50: 39PM)
Conflicting events and such
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:50: 52PM)
Not so much.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:51: 05PM)
...Well.....still...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:51: 13PM)
Think that it's mandatory that Shihirin has to take place at least 100 years later.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:51: 28PM)
I think one should lead into the other, that way we don't get clusterfuckery of to huge RPs at once, and everyone wanting to be in both
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:51: 38PM)
...Oh...well, yes.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:51: 54PM)
But just take a moment and look at the RPers side
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:52: 09PM)
Why make two different characters for essentially the same RP?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:52: 24PM)
One leading into the other would allow
massive development
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:52: 49PM)
That's not to say you can't plan on it beforehand, but I think it'd be better to start out small and work up
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:52: 59PM)
on Shihirin beforehand*
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:53: 24PM)
Do you see what I'm saying?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:53: 28PM)
ALSO
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:53: 35PM)
Transferrable skills.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:53: 59PM)
Someone used to being the corporation boss would easily fit into the role of Administator or Engineer in Shihirin
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:54: 44PM)
Do you understand what I'm getting at D:?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:54: 58PM)
Perhaps
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:55: 05PM)
My thing is
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:55: 24PM)
What we planned was to have the Administrators and Engineers be uber exclusive
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:55: 25PM)
Like
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:55: 31PM)
Admin/mod area
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:55: 39PM)
...Ah....I see.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:55: 48PM)
And have the players in Shihirin play only as the Experiments
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:56: 00PM)
Same with Corp. bosses?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:56: 18PM)
The corporations in the other one...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:56: 32PM)
...the bosses are more admin/mod material
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:56: 55PM)
Though, other antagonists, like sub bosses and "dazed" experiments could be RPed by others
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:56: 56PM)
Okay....just...hold up a sec.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:57: 25PM)
Before we go any further, I just want to point out a very significant flaw in the way you want to do it
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:57: 28PM)
Which is manpower.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:57: 59PM)
You'd need a lot of people to pull both of, and if it you make people pull double-duty, it'd be very taxing and/or difficult
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:58: 08PM)
both off*
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (9:58: 20PM)
and even if you*
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:59: 09PM)
We originally had 5 admins and 30 members
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:59: 17PM)
I don't think it'd be way too hard
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (9:59: 39PM)
This being said, it's not that the corporation bosses are completely restricted
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:00: 10PM)
They just need to have an intense interview session in order to know the goals of the corporation and what the player's personal motives are.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:00: 15PM)
Well...no. But what I'm saying is that starting out small would be beneficial in the forum and RP growth
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:00: 30PM)
Well...yes*
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:00: 57PM)
Then localize the starting region and restrict players to very specific roles to start.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:01: 06PM)
As more people fill in, more can be revealed
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:01: 15PM)
Exactly.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:01: 34PM)
Then, as the city RP reaches its peak, we can move onto the Shihirin one
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:02: 30PM)
The trick with Shihirin is that the players only need to fill one role, and that even still only Chronospheres deemed important can be revealed at first.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:02: 50PM)
Intentionally, Shihirin was to unlock only one Chronosphere for each Biosphere
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:03: 06PM)
And then at various points, a Chronosphere would lock and a new one would open
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:03: 47PM)
Those living inside would be tucked away from the rest of the forum, with only those with active plots going on having access to the forum
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:04: 15PM)
It'd allow players to make new characters, or to fulfill plots behind the scenes.
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:04: 36PM)
It's essentially twelve mini-RPs that branch off of one big one
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:04: 55PM)
...Hmmm..
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:05: 01PM)
Even with a small number of people, Shihirin can be kept fresh.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:05: 09PM)
Why would certain ones lock though? I don't quite understand what you mean
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:06: 52PM)
http://z15.invisionfree.com/Shihirin/index.php?
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:07: 08PM)
Look at the bottom where the Shihirin East, Shihirin West, etc. are
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:07: 23PM)
Those would be the unlocked areas
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:07: 30PM)
They'd be open to RP in
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:07: 32PM)
Right...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:07: 45PM)
Okay...
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:12: 44PM)
>.>
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:12: 51PM)
So, back to the site again
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:13: 07PM)
So, you have the four regions with four Chronospheres opened up.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:13: 15PM)
Sorry, this MSN is kinda sketchy
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:13: 25PM)
Is the page still up?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:13: 29PM)
Right
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:13: 39PM)
...Never opened it >.>
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:13: 49PM)
http://z15.invisionfree.com/Shihirin/index.phpKitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:13: 53PM)
*Sigh* one sec...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:15: 28PM)
Right, I see the zones
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:15: 33PM)
Okay
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:15: 36PM)
East West, etc
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:15: 45PM)
So, say we wanted to open a new one up and close another
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:15: 50PM)
So then in each of these would be 4 geospheres....?
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:15: 59PM)
Oh...okay.
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:16: 09PM)
....Wait, wha do you mean by that though? D:
The PolterGhost - Shihirin says: (10:16: 26PM)
Well, say we wanted to get rid of the Rome one for the moment
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:16: 29PM)
I thought each direction was a biosphere
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WLM D< says: (10:16: 40PM)
...Oh, I think I see...
Kitsune - Alternate MSN. CURSE YOU WL
