Marked for Death: A Rational Naruto Quest

Rafin · Oct 13, 2023

I gave my reason for voting for it. I genuinely consider the currently winning plan, as it is, that bad. I specifically do not want Hazō to survive throwing Ami under the bus for no good reason, all the while achieving nothing positive whatsoever in this conversation and then going home to try and pick up the pieces of his own folly. Again.

I'd rather play a new character and ascribe Hazō's mistakes to temporary insanity that he never has to answer for, due to being dead. And if Hazō is to go crazy and die, why not do it specifically in the way that most satisfies one of our beloved QMs?

Do we negative plan voting in here?

We don't. The only thing that beats a plan is another plan, so you'll be wanting to vote for one or more of the others and/or post one of your own.

As others have said: nope, no anti-voting.

Normally.

For this particular vote, I'll allow it. For this vote only, I'll subtract all instances of "ABSOLUTELY DO NOT 'I Hits A Bits'" from the count on my plan.

Note: you need to use an [x] to make it count as a vote.

Do the badass speech without being so insulting about it. No I don't know how it works exactly, it's your speech, I'm sure you can remove a couple instances of calling people stupid somewhere.

I probably *could* come up with a more polite way to say this if I really put some work in but the entire point was to have one last Moment of Badass and then free up time for pottery classes.

This, though... just seems to be pissing off Leaf's higher-ups for no reason?

Yeah, they're only invited because they're fun to write, not because it makes sense.

Noumero said:
Far be it from me to nitpick a divine plan; if there's a higher vision behind this, by all means let it remain unmarred by these foolish mortal concerns. But, like, yeah. Floating that.

Like I said to redzonejoe, the divine purpose is really just a goof. Heck, the plan title is an acronym for "This Is Bait". Call it a social experiment. Which, unfortunately, returned some very surprising data.

Eaglejarl is unfortunate collateral, but I think it's necessary.

What do you expect Hazõ to do with this instruction?

It's a heavy sacrifice, but one I am willing to make (on your behalf).

He's a sealmaster with special Out expertise. He'll figure it out.

This is a good point, but you do know you can fork the plan or quote the plan and ask for changes, right? Personally i also approve on not throwing Ami under the bus for no good reason.

But @eaglejarl, with lithosealing, MfD is pottery classes.

We've voted in meme votes multiple times in the past, not sure what you expect.

Cease to take insight from the banned parties.

Y'all think I'm joking about this vote but I'm dead serious.

Bah, sigh, fine. Let's be sane again.

I unironically would vote for a less insane version of that over what is currently winning (post-recent edits anyway, it used to contain very good stuff and then changed drastically), which I'm currently voting for because the alternatives are worse, huh.

Hey! That's unfair! Or is the following vote also a valid one then?

[X] ABSOLUTELY DO NOT 'Action Plan: Not Actually a Fleshed Out Action Plan'

I am not meme-voting. By all appearances Ami has done more for world peace than Hazō. Suicide (especially suicide with style) is the preferable option.

I would assume Akatsuki to be well aware that Ami probably knows about Necromancy, I mean, lets be real here... not that we should be turning their attention onto her like in the plan, no. Or parading our Kurosawa bloodline around as if it were some S-rank Sealing trick, instead of revealing 3D Sealing which actually rings a bell to a non-Sealmaster like Itachi, and which we will need to share anyway if we're to join Akatsuki because otherwise we simply cannot actually level it while being around them, and we'll always be around them if we do that.

Not to mention um, I think Itachi is already aware of the Kurosawa bloodline, with the whole bloodline clans and mutants thing he mentioned in the chapter? So its likely just pointless to even mention...

This is a special case which absolutely should not have been necessary. The plan you propose would only go into effect if it won outright (at which point we would probably default to the next most voted-for plan).
