Have a nice thanks[-]iving.

I recommend reducin[-] posting in thread to a minimum to reduce the likelihood of XP loss.

My previous plan name had a forbidden letter.

[x] Action Plan: Like Reasonable Adults
  • Mari check all:
  • KEI
    • Hazou offers them a deal:
      • Adopted KEI ninja will not be required to share their jutsu with other members of Hazou's clan, unless deals are made with the KEI leadership on a jutsu-by-jutsu basis.
      • If a KEI jutsu somehow ends up as purely in Hazou's clan, we will teach it back to the KEI.
      • The KEI stop the prevention of our purchase of tickets, and offer us non-raised ticket prices.
    • Can set up expensive penalties for breach of contract.
  • Necromancy
    • Hazou and his sensei continue their work for as massive a duration as EJ is comfortable with.
    • Purchase sufficient FP for any rolls needed.
  • Offscreen
    • Continue to visit Mareo.
    • Continue to train Harumitsu.
    • Warn Akane that EM is an air-conditioner not a combat jutsu, so our current level of experimentation with it should be considered novel research and afforded safety protocols appropriate for such.
      • Far outside of leaf.
      • Cast via SC proxy.
      • Seal research conditions.

Do the user specific post postscripts count? Mine is blank, but Faflec's has many letters, some of which are forbidden. What about link urls?
 
[x] Action Plan: Like Reasonable Adults

@Paperclipped and @Velorien, would you consider an exception for usernames? It's important to be able to communicate with people and I don't think one can update their username.

Happily, not many of us appear to use that letter in their names, but some do.

Unless this is a plan on the part of the next update author to reduce how often they are mentioned and notified, in which case, carry on.
 
Seal failure!

Severity = 78
Type = 4

Hazō's brain is infested with a small amount of the Out. It has effects on his awareness of reality and his ability to think. The effect will wear off when the next-but-one chapter drops, BUT:

Hazō is in zero G mode! No, that doesn't mean he's floating, it means that he loses 1 XP for every use of the seventh letter that appears in a post in this thread. We will overlook uses of the forbidden letter in QM posts and in what we decide are troll posts. This effect will wear off when the second-next chapter (i.e. the one scheduled for Thursday December 1) is posted.

This 'seal failure' is a fun activity that the QMs are extending the opportunity for you to play with us. You can treat it as an annoyance or you can play beside us. If you find it an annoyance, please don't ruin it for those who enjoy it.
Just to be sure, I take it the XP loss only applies to posts made after this one, yes? I don't dare check how many times we've used that letter across the entire thread, but it's probably sufficient to dropkick Hazou's XP totals back to the Academy.

The amount of forbiden leters that are on the tread since its inception by users that are not with us anymore, would be sufficient to reset mr warcrimes XP to pre academy days if that is the case.

Maybe if we spam the FORBIDDEN LETTER sufficiently we can break free of the Illusion Technique the Mist Academy put us under to test our loyalty!

[this is a joke, please do not spam the FORBIDDEN LETTER]

They did say "troll posts" would not be counted, so is likely fine as far as XP "is concerned", but im pretty sure SV have a rule that penalizes that behevior.
... Fuck, i will stop now, see everyone on next update

"Madara's treasonous member, what a prick."
Well, there are several ways to read that sentence. Did Hazō find a... relic?
So you have somewhere between [8] and infinite [paramours] [who run] around
Finally someone who UNDERSTANDS IT. ("It" means Project: Omnicule)
"Exc-c-cuse me," Harumitsu said. "Isn't it [bad] t-to [datz] so many women? You can't marry th-them all."
Not yet you can't. We work on it. A man who doesn't UNDERSTAND IT.
There was no part of the stone that was beyond his control. So why did the technique's chakra feedback make him feel like his chakra [permeated] the stone in a way he couldn't yet feel, much less control?
Lavabender, metamorphic power, or stone seals by chakra ways/shifts in the stone in another dimension? All well.

"That's the pattern of my footsteps, from when I danced with Ami,"
I swear to Tobirama's abysmal fashion sense, if there was a secret code to the dance at all, and it was for Hazō to decode at all, and it was in the rhythm rather than in the pattern (such as morse)...

KEI has no more power over our chūnin than the [disliked clan] do, which means that any ninja that shared ninjutsu with our adoptees now have to deal with those ninjutsu [that are no more a] secret. It's not just that our chūnin can freely teach it to others in the clan. The ninjutsu are fully ours now – we could trade them to other clans, sell them to the Tower, or [whatever] else we wanted. Worse, if the ninja that [did a teach to] our adoptees their ninjutsu died before [they did a teach with] it to anyone else, the ninjutsu could end up our clan secret. Sure, the teacher's dead and [rots] either way, but it's a [bad] insult to [all that] the KEI stands for if the cooperation and sacrifices of their members ends up [an asset to] clan coffers.
There's a solution to the tune of "Tower-mandated paid intellectual property and licence to teach with veto from the KEI" but that will have its own issues. There may even be ways to enforce this with personal seals (think ROOT loose-lips seals in canon) but that's a bit dark side of the force if you ask me. (V: I did SAY that I [represented Belkar]'s viewpoint in this.)
Further down the line, if no action is taken, the KEI will essentially be a non-voter clan politically, except its best members are taken out of it, and its secrets are sold, all the time. If they start to parcel out their secrets, everyone loses. If they don't, only they lose. Also, there's the constant increase risk of a radical who betrays their adoptive clan and distributes clan secrets to the KEI. Which would be a terrible landmine. Of course, there's the matter of the Kei clan and its obvious ties to KEI. To prevent that eventual explosion, the Tower should probably step in and do an act that values the KEI for its jutsu production. To prevent jutsu poachers, promote sales of the jutsu they create except at an incredibly steep cost, which would be Tower-enforced?
Somehow, despite the sounds Hazō had half-[believed] he'd heard, her eyes were dry. He looked down and noted a [...] wet patch on his shirt.
To be a waterbender is incredible.

Edit: I'M SORRY I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THERE WAS A SECOND POST ;w; PLEASE FIND IT IN YOUR HEART TO DO THE TWO VERBS THAT START WITH "FOR-" WHICH ELEPHANTS NEVER DO

Finally someone who GETS IT. ("It" being Project: Omnicule)

Not yet you can't. We're working on it. A man who doesn't GET IT.

Lavabending, metamorphic power, or stone sealing by arranging chakra highways/changing the stone in another dimension? All good.

Please please for the love of all that is Jashin, avoid the forbidden letter (between F and H in the alphabet)! I know you didn't see the post where we were warned before you posted this, but please make sure you are aware of the restrictions we are currently under before you post any further.
 
With our new pile of XP we can buy EM 40 which is nuke level

[X] XP to Spend Akane: My partner is a WMD
Elemental Mastery 40 (610 XP)
Save 6xp
 
On a less [FORBIDDEN LETTER] matter, does anyone else feel that we should nip the Uchiha Minori situation in the bud before certain others become involved? She's 12 and I feel that this is the sort of situation that will lead to BAD ENDS everywhere, in and out of thread.
 
Does this include quotations?? IE if I quote your post, does it count the FORBIDDEN LETTER for XP losses?

Edit: What about Discord?
Generally, you can assume good faith on the part of the QMs.

It does not include quotations. It does not include Discord. It does not include usernames.

It DOES include unicode or etc characters that look like the seventh letter but are not. "Chi-instead-of-X" is for tricking machines, not people.

Well that's a relief, at least.
