Which shows that you did not read it fully

We are still allowed to suggest our own ideas.

No, I read it before the removal of write-ins as a fully listed option with a box and everything. You could be right that the leaving of that line is entirely intentional, but my impression, based on there having been significantly more supporting such additions that was actively removed, is that particular line is legacy text and no longer correct.

The only one that he actively vetoed was your idea. The rest he only said that he really liked his own idea, not that nobody should bother. Just because he did not like your first idea, does not mean you cannot try again.

No, I'm sorry, I'm not being clear: The original post had a much larger section talking about write-in bloodlines, including a box (one of these [ ] with a write-in entry listed as an option). IF deleted the whole thing except for the one line you're referring to, which was separate. Combined with his statement that he really liked the listed bloodline, that's what gave me the impression that other bloodlines were no longer available. It's a different event entirely separate from the first veto.

Like, first he vetoed one bloodline, then separately he commented he really liked the existing one and deleted almost all the text referring to others in the initial post. My impression is that the line you're referring to was also meant to be deleted but got missed.

I mean, IF literally removed the [ ] write in option, you don't get a lot more explicit than that.

Yes, I did see that, but it is the very next line of instructions and he let people vote for their own ideas for sixteen hours now.

It just seems like quite the reach that he forgot to delete that part of the vote and then not say anything at all afterwards. Especially when he took the time to come back to threadmark the informational post.
 
Given that voting seems to have somewhat slowed down, I may call the vote in an hour or two.

That sound good to everyone?

Alright, I reckon that I'll go ahead and give you a few more hours to get your votes in.

The first update will consist of a portrayal of Barki's home life and the upheaval of it

This plan will not win, I'd suggest going for the original I Know this Looks Bad Plan,
[X] Plan: Barki the Hunter
Is plan is also probably not going to win, might I suggest I Know This Looks Bad? It has much more of a wilderness survival focus compared to the leading plan.

I've added some more details to your character sheet regarding your equipment as of this moment in time. More will be added once the story begins in truth.

Unfair must end unjust,
Unkind outlaw's mind now.

Banished Barki vanished,
Banned from his own farmland.

Step and stride to world wide,
Steady ready vengeance.

Here story he gory,
Hear how weal and woe now.

GL HF guys!

Un-fair must end un-just,
Un-kind out-law's mind now.

Ba-nished Bar-ki va-nished,
Banned from his own farm-land.

Step and stride to world wide,
Stea-dy rea-dy ven-geance. (Note: Doubles as a reference to Steady Grip)

Here sto-ry he go-ry,
Hear how weal and woe now.

....It gets easier.
