DO NOT USE THE SEVENTH LETTER OF THE ALPHABET, OR ANY WORD THAT CONTAINS SAID LETTER, IN YOUR POSTS

PLEASE USE SEARCH (Ctrl + F) / ( + F) TO REMOVE ALL INSTANCES OF THE SEVENTH LETTER BEFORE YOU POST

FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN XP LOSS FOR HAZOU

QMs if you don't want these posts to be made, please tell me and I'll stop.
 
This missin[-] letter idea is fun. I almost re[-]ret that I'm not more active in the thread just so I could enjoy playin[-] alon[-] with it a bit more. it's a real sneaky letter, huh? [-]uess I'll just [-]o back to not postin[-] unless I spot somethin[-] particularly important bein[-] overlooked.

Note: Despite watching myself carefully, two instances of the letter almost snuck by me and were only caught by the ctrl+f search function just before hitting 'post'. Sneaky sneaky. It's not even a lon[-] comment!

EDIT: FUCK. THE SEARCH DIDN'T UPDATE WHILE I WAS TYPIN AHHH IM SORRY I'VE FAILED YOU

USE THE JASHIN DAMNED SEARCH FUNCTION BEFORE YOU PRESS POST

bleh I need to step away.
I USED IT. I THOT I WAS SAFE. I WAS WRON. NOW I TYPE IN CAPS. IT IS MY CURSE. jk. I already commited sudoku on a differnt forum with the profile picture to match so i won't reuse that joke here but i do feel rather bad about it.

so learn from my mistake; havin' the search bar up with the forbidden letter hi liten does not mean that new instances of the letter will also lite up. you'd need to freshly reapply the search. it was a costly lesson.
 
[X] Trainin' Plan Hazou: None

I have been informed that the previous plan further delays ES 50 and the next detour.
 
@hYJP hey your link is broken
Not sure if is joke, but just in case: you can reference whatever username you like; usernames that contain the forbidden letter are not counted.


Could we have a threadmark for the information on Orochimaru's Ninjutsu Scrolls?
Done.

They're a real help, but maybe the risk-notifying ones could be a little less frequent? Once every couple of 25-post-blocks-with-a-linked-nav-number or so.
 
[X] Trainin' Plan Hazou: None

I'm aware of those concerns but still consider the current plan to be ideal. ES 50 has been our objective until now because we believed that to be the threshold at which we would reach our next ES perk, which we believe to be 'ability to make 3D seals'. This is fine and reasonable, and until this last update it was reasonable to aim for ES 50 and skip ES 40.

However! We have in this update observed Hazou feel that he is close to another perk. This is evidence in favour of the idea that the ES perk we seek is found at ES 40 rather than ES 50. It would be nice, I feel, to reach this perk as soon as we can, and if the perk truly is at ES 40 then the fastest way to reach it would be to pursue ES 40 now.

I confess that I am not entirely sure how much this affects the next detour, but I am content with the current plan that aims for immediate acquisition of ES 40 so that we can craft our first 3D seals posthaste.

I understand your perspective and your points are well-made. I still find myself a bit leery of delayed detours, since Hazou's brushwork is one of the skills that we plan to raise (which improves the speed and quality of seals he can research). I find myself torn, and will weigh the options until the voting session has concluded.

Frick.
 
Since I apparently can't make a sin@le post without fuckin@ it up, I'm @onna step out for the duration. See y'all then.
Please don't beat yourself up. It's a new entertainment-thing and unfamiliar. It was completely certain that there would be one or two slips at least and the fact that one of them is yours is mostly luck of the draw and unfamiliarity. You have lots to contribute, and I believe Hazō recently made an entire speech to Mari about a mindset that relates to continual improvement and re-invention. Wise advice isn't only for characters!
 
until the voting session has concluded.
Hazō clutched at his head as a sharp pain hit him between the eyes like a judge's...ow...short-handled-hammer-thingy-object.

EDIT: Hazō cried out in embarrassment as though some enormous Outer entity had failed utterly to observe its own rules. Fortunately, the pain was not reflected in any particular way other than that momentary embarrassment.
