No need, it's not technically wrong and everyone appears to under understand what you meant. Better would be to give each option it's own line, half way through they're all in the same one.Also did I really do black headed, blue headed, etc instead of haired because copied red headed? I need to do better proof reading. Will go back and edit later after votes so things don't become confusing.
Fixed, thanks.No need, it's not technically wrong and everyone appears to under understand what you meant. Better would be to give each option it's own line, half way through they're all in the same one.
If we have to fight any of these higher end models, we are so dead. Why did they even bring a Liger Zero and a Berserker Fury here? That isn't like mixing oil and water, that's like mixing oil and corn syrup then setting it on fire.
While I agree with the sentiment, even if we could get one of them to let us work the controls, nobody here is going to just let us take an expensive Zoid like that. We'd have to work for them, and while that might not be a bad gig there's lots of reasons not to trust those companys and governments, IE our might-be-a-lot-more-valuable-than-a-pilot-ancient-zoidian-innards. If we could afford one that'd be a different story, but sadly we're only on track to take place in two of the turnament events, and we're giving up a good chunk of that change for the auction.Who cares why? This is our ticket outta here since we can talk to them and all. Hard to argue when the normally temperamental Zoid suddenly turns docile as soon as we hop into the pilot's seat.
I mean, sure, if we fall into the Fury's cockpit then that Liger Zero is going to go full yandere on us for snubbing it and probably vice versa but come on. And granted that it's probably Quest Hard Mode to actually try for either of them but it'd be so worth it. Go big or go home!
They might simply be forced to hire us because there's a real chance that said zoid might choose to go with us rather than stay there on display. And in the end we'd likely have a very powerful zoid that'd be very angry if we were cut up.While I agree with the sentiment, even if we could get one of them to let us work the controls, nobody here is going to just let us take an expensive Zoid like that.

Blackheads heh...need skincare?Also did I really do black headed, blue headed, etc instead of haired because copied red headed? I need to do better proof reading. Will go back and edit later after votes so things don't become confusing.
That's a good point. That's a really good point. A powerful and known to be temperamental Zoid would make for an excellent bodyguard. Now I really wish we'd gone three for three at the tournament. If we'd managed a strong showing at the showcase, reenactment and tournament rounds we'd be getting showered with offers, not to mention the money.And in the end we'd likely have a very powerful zoid that'd be very angry if we were cut up.
Honestly yes, this is a lot easier to understand imo.Need to more formally write this up. But does this make more sense and would this be easier to understand?
Remember, we don't need the money, we just need to bond with the zoid in question. After which they may dock us some of our winnings, but hell, even if we drop unconscious via strain or something, so long as we form a bond with a suitably powerful zoid we're golden more or less.That's a good point.

You're overlooking that the money we're gunning for is to buy up the capsule from the ruins that the MC came from. Which I am 99% certain contains either an Organoid, or some other potential partner, perhaps even another Ancient Zoidian. Once we get our hands on that, we're going to need to gtfo fast, lest whoever we outbid decides to go through less than legal channels to get what they want. Especially if they suspect the capsule of being more than a piece of modern art.Remember, we don't need the money, we just need to bond with the zoid in question.

But we have a built in thread tally these days. Even works on phones. Winning vote is for white hair and going to the special show.
You're looking for zalgo. Beware, he comes.... Also bb code question that is totally not at all relevant to next update but I think I remember before seeing in threads messed up text where it was kind of broken apart with trailing pieces or something? Are there any bb code things just to make text weird or does that all have to be done manually?
Possessing a very powerful zoid is also a good way to stay alive and keep said zoidian/organoid alive/with us.You're overlooking that the money we're gunning for is to buy up the capsule from the ruins that the MC came from.

Bonding to a powerful zoid is all well and good, but don't assume that just because they've got working versions here that they're going to be available for us to pilot after the tournaments.
Ah, thank you for that information Pheist. I am fairly sure I recall that the Beserk Fury and Liger Zero here on display were the real deal, so we could still potentially bond with one of them.Also a comment on the Berserk Fury and the Liger Zero since taking stuff both from battle story, the anime, and some other media (though certain things definitely have more weight than others. Games have mostly been hey more names for countries so I don't have to name them myself and when I actually give prices how I estimsted those). The Liger Zero and the Berserk Fury are incredibly rare and hard to produce/find Zoids that cost a lot of money but are not quite one of a kind (I doubt any vendor brought even a half dozen to sell including the floor model). They are also well known to be impossible to pilot. This is definitely a factor on why all companies capable of making Blade Ligers and Geno Breakers don't have them for sale (even harder to produce with an even smaller market opportunity). If you find a team with one that you bond with you might find yourself with an automatic offer to join because it literally has just been collecting dust in their hangar bay and they can now finally field it and get some use out of it. Some military or mercenary organizations might have one and might then want to give you a better position than starting recruit. The companies themselves are still going to be wanting to be paid for them. They might decide having a test pilot capable of bonding with very tempermental Zoids is good and thus be willing to hire you but it is not guaranteed. If you find someone who made the mistake of spending a ridiculous amount of money on one of these and can't pilot it there's a chance might be able to buy it for cheap if that fellow doesn't fall into sunk cost fallacy and decides getting any money back is good. You also probably could try and take one and run and have a very powerful machine and friend to help protect against anyone going after you wanting to return it, but there might also be a lot of pilots and zoids in the area that could interfere.
HAhahahahaha... you think we're going to be allowed into the cockpit on the show floor? No way in hell, the people showcasing the zoids would never go for it simply due to the risk of the zoid going berserk and trashing the place.Overall, having one of those would give us better odds of earning enough money to be absolutely sure of purchasing said capsule and keeping it safe.
Why? Even if we could get in one and bond, they'd never let us take one into the showcase or reenactment. We're supposed to lose those as a way for the sponsors to show off their hardware and weapons with a side of historical revisionism.Overall, having one of those would give us better odds of earning enough money to be absolutely sure of purchasing said capsule and keeping it safe.
You really think a bunch of infantry are going to stop a zoid from getting us in the cockpit if it wants us there? And if they tried to stop us violently said zoid would almost certainly get violent in retaliation.HAhahahahaha... you think we're going to be allowed into the cockpit on the show floor?

Then it becomes an issue for the organizers really. Do they not allow us to participate because we are suddenly no longer scrub level opponents? Or do they let us go in and bill us as a dark horse candidate for the fights? If they insist we participate, then it becomes whether or not they can stop whatever zoid we bond with from going with us. I mean, do you really want to try and stop a determined Berserk Fury from going into a fight in the middle of a city? That's a recipe for an unmitigated disaster, it'd be easier and safer to just let us go into the tournament with it in that case.Why? Even if we could get in one and bond, they'd never let us take one into the showcase or reenactment.

Now if we'd made plans for the bracketed tournament, we could swing that as a proper contestant instead of space filler. Don't know if that would pay as well though.
You are vastly underestimating how easy it will be to form a bond with any Zoid, let alone a tempermental one. Liger Zero in New Century: Zero let Bit into the cockpit, and then basically tested him to see if he was worthy. We have no idea what it took for Vega to bond with the Berserk Fury, and frankly those two were exceptions to start with in terms of personality thanks to the "black box" around their cores, which made them both more proactive and more picky in terms of who they would chose as their Warrior.You really think a bunch of infantry are going to stop a zoid from getting us in the cockpit if it wants us there?
