Best Game Ever | Dudley Quest [HP/The Gamer]

There's a difference between sticking to canon and sticking to character.

Most of these votes go out of character.
I do not see as a complete perturbation and the WTF, from the words of Harry's reaction is not canonical. And until it wins. Bond villain more doubtful, but you can barely fit it. Just as the cry, or hit Harry. The only reaction of the OOC is a lecture about how Harry does not think about Dudley as human.
The way I see it, playing as a 'not very attractive character' is part of what makes this quest fun and unique. You're essentially telling me that you don't like Dudley, so this is no longer Dudley quest.

Nice to see somebody being honest about it at least.
As shown in the canon, Dudley can realize that maybe what his family is doing with Harry wrong. Perhaps we're too rush things and it looks too fast, this is a reasonable criticism. But I do not think that anyone here wants to Dudley Dursley remained meaninglessness blunt bully. Heck, he even ceased to be such in canon

I don't see the appeal of most of these votes, bond villain one included, no matter how you try to spin it.

Harry's been through our stuff, he's confronting us, insulting us, and we're responding... By goofing off, confessing, and apparently trying to scare him?

No. Harry is right, you guys have killed Dudley and replaced him with a SV hivemind. There are a few of those quests out there, but this wasn't supposed to be one of them.

Lots of people are voting for the "Dudley is outraged" option. Which is:

[] ... What.
-->[] No, seriously, what.
-->[] Did he just call you stupid!?
-->[] Has he been in your room?!
-->[] Who the hell does he think he is?!

I suggest you go with that since it's one of the leading votes and has the best chance of beating the Bond one.

Keep in mind that we should approach this from the viewpoint of Dudley Dursely, who just got called an imposter by his terrible cousin.

Woah woah woah woah woah. I'm not suggesting we do this out of the kindness of our hearts. Give and take.

For example, we can do it to make Harry do what we wish, like Partying so we can leech off of his XP/higher level.
Or anything else later on.

I agree with this. Dudley is entertaining. Particularly the way we play him now. Being "Generic Nice Guy Quest PC #2235" wouldn't be fun. I don't think we have to stick completely to the rails now that we're mechanically a more intelligent and wise Dudley, though.

@Ivar : Dudley realized that as a highschooler and after Harry saved his fucking life.

Were the Bond vote not dangerously close to winning (if it isn't already) I'd go with this:

[] Smile smugly at Harry and say: "Me, stupid? You're just mad I got XP from winning the Vinda-who? quest and you didn't."
-->[]Walk away

This I think is funny. Plus it'd leave Harry frustrated and further confused. It would also let something slip while Dudley is gloating.

I did, at least the initial '[] ... what.' part, and since we're not voting by plans it should count towards it.

But voting for the competing option just doesn't do justice to the... Outrage? Disgust? Contempt? That I'm feeling. Like Big D, I will let nothing stop me from punching Harry SV when I'm mad!

Yes.

This is actually perfect. Can somebody run a tally so I know if we can afford to start switching to this?

Are you sure? It might just be a separate "...what." vote.

I agree with you, yeah. I don't think Dudley would let an insult, him messing his room up or his attitude fly. Plus, it hasn't even been an entire day yet. He may be smarter, but it hasn't even been a day since we became The Gamer.

Not to be a smart-ass, but since you left the X's in the tally, you just did switch to that.

...not completely sure, I'm still hoping somebody will post a tally soon so we can see where things stand.

For what it's worth, I didn't come up with it.m the last line, I me
Please redirect your "Funny" rating here.
Ah, I missed that. Thank you and I have. I gave you a like instead.

Ok. Here's what I got at 3AM! Results may or may not be accurate. Maybe someone can do a proper version?

In the future can you put the vote tally in a spoiler or quote? That way it doesn't tag everyone that voted.
 
34 for inviting him in (38?)
-23 for bond villain
-12 for telling him everything.
There's some overlap, and a few other options but nothing really competitive.

32 '... What.'
-unknown minor variations that aren't competitive

So theoretically right now we invite him in for sandwiches, but the intent behind inviting him in isn't clear enough to do anything with it.

Bond villain joke has more than half of the inviting him in votes, but it's very much a minority of the total votes. Not sure what'd happen if vote was called right now.

Well I hope the "What" wins. I chose it to avoid the bond choice winning out.

You don't really join a party with someone two levels higher to leech XP. Where are we gonna leech XP at anyway? The only place we can grind XP in the HP world that I know of is the RoR and most people seem to want to avoid Hogwarts. If we did go we'd have no need of him.

Hm...point. Still, it's something to consider if we ever want something out of him.
