Balamb Garden: signup and discussion

Much appreciated :) I just wanted to clear things up quickly really.
I've been really pleased with the progress the RP has made, and I've always liked the fact that nobody really disagree's on much.
Ideally, I'd like to keep things nice and peaceful ^^.
 
Sorry man...i know it's your RP and you make decisions...

How can anyone finish an Elnoyle in 5 seconds Amelia!?

Come on now...you put a lv.6 monster who as a bunch of nasty attacks, and who is without a doubt one of the strongest monsters in FFVIII. You can't beat it in 5 seconds.

A high level Elnoyle as almost 100000HP it can cast Pain and other nasty spells.

At least watch until the scan part...plus as i understand this monster is an even more powerful version of Elnoyle.

Power Playing.
 
No need for appologies buddy, I know I made the RP but I don't want to control what everyone does, I just provide advice :)

Out of curiousity, is everyone happy for me to keep running the RP or would you prefer me to give control to someone else? I honestly don't mind, I'm just checking in case people aren't happy with the way I run it :D
 
It's your RP you have to run it and you do a good job doing it...

If it was someone else then we would be fighting every time we turn around a corner and this RP would turn into chaos.
 
yeah ,I agree with Jimmy.

this is your RP, you started it, and I think you should continue running it.

Also. That was not just an elnoyle, FFGuy stated that it "evolved" so to speak. so yes, this was power gaming.

however, I have talked to Amealia about it, and she missed tat detail, and she is truly sorry.

lets just hope it doesn't happen again
 
That's fair enough. I understand that on occasions it can be easy to miss a small detail such as that. As long as people don't make a habbit of it, and are generally sorry (like Amelia) then it shouldn't be an issue :)

AHHHHHHHH!! Please guys, cool down a bit o.0

Let me just say that no one here is wrong, you all have valid points. I propose that I add a small created explaination. Just to clear this debate up.

How about this:

"The letter which was left by 'Ultemicia' was in fact not left by her. It was actually left by someone else, trying to distract the SeeD's and make them forget what their mission is."

Amelia, I'm sorry to toy with your story, but I feel this is the best way to sort our situation out. Can we all agree on this?

I do want to back up with what Fox said: the events that took place in FFVIII do not have to be the same in the RP. Feel free to use character history e.g Squall, but if we say big events such as the whole Edea/Ultemicia thing never happened, it leaves us open for plenty of possible storylines :)

My, my. Time moves on too fast in the internet than in real life. ;.;

Damo, would you still take me in?

Vegnya, I would be more than happy to take you back in :) I was disapointed at the thought of you leaving!

As I remember, yourself (Becca) and Luana (Lady Eterna) left Balamb Garden after a majority of the party. That means you would be on a different train, and would not be able to get into FH due to the barrier surrounding it (long story XD)
I'm sure we can work you back into it somehow!
 
Thank you kindly. I had so much fun here, I just couldn't leave it. I'm not sure if L.Eterna though, I had the feeling that she went into permanent writer's block for this one. I suppose I could ask her about this. Otherwise, I think can play her as well to get some character interaction going.

Now as for current events, should I just do my research or is it solid enough to summarize? The thing with RPs is that consistency in events can get shaky depending on the point of view.
 
well currently we have arrived at FH and it was over run by monsters, by ultimacia and her brand new henchmen, the Galbadian army... so the Seed have split up into groups and searched for survivors so join in anywere (if i missed anything out the others will fill it in)
 
Kira basically said it all. Just to go into further detail:

-There was a note left by 'Ultemecia' saying how she has returned. Some people disagree about whether she can exist or not, which is fair enough. For this reason we have decided to say that it may well be her, but it may be someone trying to fool SeeD.

-We have also come to the conclusion that the Galbadian forces have been recruited by whoever left the note.

-Our latest decision is where to go; Timber or Esthar. We can't stay in FH but have been trapped by an invisible barrier that we believe can be broken via force e.g. powerful magic.

I think that's about it. If any of that confuses you, I'm sure you can make mroe sense by reading the last couple of pages of the RP ^^.
 
Sorry for the double post, mod's can you merge the two?

I have hatched a new little idea that I would like to share with you all. To add more of a feel to the RP, and I know a few RP's do this already, how about we add a soundtrack?

Now the way it would work is as follows:

-Depending on the location we are in, and the situation we are in, I will find a suitable piece of music from FFVIII and post the link for it on the main page of this thread.

-From there, you can download the music, or if you already have it; great! Afterwards, you can play the track on your computer whilst posting/reading the RP.

-This is obviously optional, which is possibly the best part about it. For those of you who would like to go ahead with this idea, simply tell me and I shall find the suitable music for you all :)

Any confusion on the idea?
 
I'll work on it later today Arth :)

If anybody has any other ideas that could improve the RP, don't forget to let me know...

And before I forget, I've spoken to Vegnya and for now, I will take control of her character. Not for good, and not constantly, just here and there.
 
As you've probably noticed, I've started adding little animations in my posts. It's not something I expect you all to do, it's just something I'm playing about with to make the RP different :)

They may look crappy, but I like them XD
 
they may look crappy'ish. but I find them cool.

Also. My character name is not Al. it is Al'umar.
They just call him Al.
However, it is ok if you use Al, I wont force you to remake it, or think of it in the future. I just felt to nag.

I will at least try to be more active in the RP.
I cant guarantee anything else.
