You will find out who your targets are once your character knows.

Juuust a little tiny problem guys.

PG-14 through PG-17- These ratings contain content ranging from weak to mild blood and gore, swearing, and violence. Minor sexual themes are permitted in RPs with a rating of PG-16 or higher.

Restricted- The restricted rating is the most frowned upon rating, usually containing unecessary amounts of sexual themes, swearing, and gore. You may not make an RP that is R rated!

I didn't mind the 18+ because I was under the impression that it would include only the killing and gore, which isn't really that big a deal.

But I don't want to see any lemons, it's not okay for this forum, kay?

::coughLilyandJackaredatingcough:: I probably should have created more than one female NPC, though.

What is a "lemon"? ^-^;;

A lemon is a manga/anime/fanfic/anything fictional that has high sexual content.

Loki was most likely referring to JBC's post.

Oh, er sorry, I wasn't really talking to you. xD; Mostly JBC, but yeah, what Sublime said. It's a little too over-the-top for this community. :/

Oh yea, by the way. Serene may not be on for awhile. She's in the process of moving and her computer is sealed away in a cardboard box :/

JBCBlank said:

I never described anything. XD it's all suggestive.. trust me it's all suggestive. and I put a warning! you can't say you wasn't warned and it's hidden in a Spoiler. So you don't have to look at it if you don't think you can take it. Not like i force anyone to read it.

Well I don't see why you can't take it somewhere else, sweet heart. I'll let you leave it this time, but you- and DM, need to take that kind of material to another forum, because really, this is not the place. If we could hide everything in spoilers, there would absolutely be no reason to have the rule against pornographic images, now would there? If we could have suggestive things, there would be no reason as to many people getting their signatures disabled for that very reason.

I personally have no issues with what you wrote, and I am not particularly offset by the vague descriptions, but we're not just thinking about you or me in this case.

You don't have to edit your post if Kogenta doesn't feel you need to. But next time you'll recieve an infraction for indecent content, and I believe that results in an automatic ban, so that's that. :>

Please do not post about this issue in this thread again, and if you really must debate, then PM me, but my stand on this is firm, and is not likely to change.



And I'm sorry Kogenta, for spamming your OOC thread. :<

JBCBlank: For the sake of continuity, I will not ask you to edit your post (if that is alright). But in the future please avoid this degree of control over the NPCs. I consider attacking characters and, er, whatever it was that Lily did with your character to be major events. Also, please follow Pokecommunity rules, RP and otherwise.

Allelujah Haptism: This is what OOC threads are for, I guess. ^-^;;

-------------------

I plan to post the next plot event tomorrow.

Hey guys, sorry I havn't been able to post my second post yet. It's just been slipping my mind. I'll get it up tonight though. Promise ^_^

Re Kogenta's last post: Woww. Just wow. He actually said it. I can't wait see everyone's reaction! Please, please, someone stand up and shout angrily and throw shoes at the Captain. It would just make my day. Maybe we could get a riot going.

Sorry, Rabbit. Gregor can't riot. A panic attack is possible, though. Anyway, I wanted to ask something, Kogenta. The rules say you can kill someone who is trying to kill you. Killing that person means their target is you. Is that the same thing as killing the target, or is that just collateral and you still need to take out your original target?

If you kill someone who is not your given target, that is collateral. You will still be asked to destroy your target, and if the person you killed was your hunter, you will have a new person hunting you (unless the game is over, naturally).

-flails- I don't mean to be nitpicky, but I'm having some trouble understanding what's happening in the RP, and how I can fit my own character's reply into it. Ignoring other people's posts would be rude, but commenting on the action within them might be worse...

Goodbye, Farewell, & Amen: You've just been told by a well-dressed, pleasantly smiling captain that you have to murder a randomly selected stranger, and, succeeding, continue to murder other people, while being targeted by other strangers with the same task. You...sigh and leave the room, accepting your fate? Just tell me that I have this right.

JBCBlank: When Kayley speaks, do people see Kyle speaking, or is this all in his head? If the former, it would seen to people around him that he was speaking to himself. That might cause some strange murmurs.

Then you write that "she was standing next to him." Wait a sec. Weren't they inhabiting one body just a second ago? That's the key to having multiple personalities, right? Did Kayley just materialize out of thin air?

Then Kyle runs into a table, knocking it over, gets a knife stuck in his leg, and pulls it out. Upturned table aside, he should now be bleeding from a leg wound, which would cause yet more attention. Then Kayley disappears and Kyle slaps himself. If I were there, I would think that Kyle was not in possession of his senses and call a doctor to the scene. Is this the reaction that you intended to create, or am I reading this wrong?

I don't know if the first replier set a precedent or what, but no-one's character has addressed the Captain or shown any signs of being, well, surprised. Could my post address that issue in the time frame before Lily begins calling out names, or would that be considered ret-conning since everyone else has assumed she didn't say anything and continued on?

My character was a hardened mafioso, he's slightly disturbed, don't worry. I have something planned.

Edit: Congrats on your 100th post Rabbit

^ This is exactly why I haven't posted yet. xD

I wrote an entire paragraph of my character freakin' out in his gangsta' talk, but then I was like, "...... Hm... :I"

So I just decided to wait for someone else to post...

I have this problem as well. xD;

That's my reason for not posting either. xD

It's to...Obvious how we should react, but no one is. :/

I'm sure I'll come up with something though..

The lack of panic or general surprise/incredulity has, admittedly, been a little peculiar to me.

In any case, now I am wondering if I should have made no mention of murder in the opening post, then revealed it during the RP (true fake vacationers caught on a true fake death cruise). ^-^;;

Your post can backtrack a little, but the only reactions to anything your character says/does may occur from people who post after you.

Also, I think Kyle was hallucinating when he saw Kayley, though that would be for JBCBlank to say . . .

-----------------------------

By the way, just to clarify: After my last post, aside from NPC movement and interaction, as well as the occasional "event," I have essentially set you all loose to begin your mayhem.

Sorry for settingg a low standard. I was nervous...
