  • Diplomacy might be a cross-class skill, but dropping some points in it was one of the best decisions of my life.
    Currently being driven mad by a high-pitched humming in the seminar room. I think I can now sympathize with Reaper indoctrination victims.
    Status update: Nearly all better and am making progress on quests again (1.2k Ignition words today, can probably do more tomorrow).
    So after seeing some hilarious stuff in the Girls Frontline Images thread, I went and tried it. It's surprisingly fun, but I need friends.

    ...Which sounds so sad when I say it out loud. It makes sense in context, I swear!

    It's nice to see people picking up a game I enjoy! My ID is 59976 if you want to fill out that support/battery-thieving list. I haven't been able to play for a while because of circumstances, but it definitely is fun to keep up with the memes.

    Request sent. I'm Alivaril, 561275.
    Don't you just hate the professors who forget people have other classes? 15 hours of homework for each of his lecture periods is a bit much.

    It seems to have been a one-off incident. He's still assigning a bunch, but it's a reasonable amount now (8 hours per week instead of 30).
    Status update: Next chapter will be for Fragmentation, then (probably) Ignition. I'm working on adapting to my class schedule right now.

    Neither of those will come out today, though, thus the update. On the bright side, I WANT to write right now, so it's just a matter of time.

    I miss Extriction or tricking fate it was a fun quest.

    It was almost over anyway, and unfortunately, I found that the concept of Echoes didn't work so well in an open-world quest. I do intend to eventually go back and finish it, though; the next update or two were going to be the end anyway. It was designed to be a proof-of-concept.
    Please, people, get yourselves vaccinated. I mean, I know this is SV and there won't be many people here who don't, but still.
    Phone will make updates slow(er) for a bit. The next Frag update is mostly done, but I have to do a bunch of formatting and Upgrade's text.
    Note to self: Your feet cannot handle walking 25 kilometers in one day when lacking shoes with proper arch support. Ow...
    I'm still annoyed by how my brain is structured so that the meds letting me avoid being a forgetful, lethlargic puddle help take themselves.

    Or rather, by how the lack of them leads to an unpleasant spiral. Bah.

    Profile posts only have generic likes, so have this instead. (っ・∀・)っ
    Home at last! My schedule should now be mostly clear until mid-December-ish; I'll almost certainly have some busy days, but no big chunks.
    ah you changed your sig... the by line for Fragemantion about turning the puzzle into your sister is what got me to read it.
    Writing from a phone may be more difficult, but that apparently hasn't stopped me from writing 1.2k words for Ignition / 550 Consumption.

    (4-5k Con, 1.5k Ig) Annnnd updating Revision in a few hours, apparently. I just need to color some text. EDIT: Revision updated.

    Were those words the interlude you just posted or do we have more to look forward to?

    Those particular words (for Ignition) were posted several months ago. I do have most of the next Ignition update done, but I still have to do a few tricky parts and some formatting.
    Vanishing off the face of the earth for about the next half-month. So very much to do, too little time to do it in.

    Apparently there was a scheduling miscommunication/error, so I'll actually have about 10 days (August 5th-15th-ish) to GM before needing to vanish for about a week. I'll still be busy until then, though.

    I'll just have to wait for the next quest then.

    So it turns out that I'm actually learning some useful things by helping with BTEA. Some new methods I've tried out in order to communicate something complicated have turned out to be easier overall than their original versions. E: Especially for votes. Ye gods, that's going to save me sooooo much time in the future.

    That's nice. Sometimes a perspective shift is just what you need.
    I think you might benefit from running a CK2 quest. You're style has a clear influence from your experience as a RL GM, which has it's strengths, but also weaknesses. Updates of mostly back and forth talking are quick IRL, but much longer on a forum. Not great for pacing or on a reread (I noticed when I reread ignition). Also, reached character limit.
    Ignition has been back for like two days and is already locked for mod review.

    Hey, it was never that bad. In this case, it was caused by basically the entire thread speaking to one poster who has himself been threadbanned before.
    Alivaril
    Alivaril
    Welp. At least the Ignition kerfluffle gives people time to reread the most recent chapters if they need a memory refresher.

    I wonder how long his thread ban will be this time? I think he has been baned about 4 times from Ignition.
