The Practice War [Complete]

[Snowfire]

Alright, I have another piece of work to deal with before actually closing this vote, but I might as well post a tally. Plan wise, this is a total landslide, though the Answer vote is actually very close.

I'll be aiming to close this vote this evening, assuming other writing goes well.

As I said elsewhere, I think we should start focusing on Skin of Steel at the latest immediately after 3BoS. Imminence does that. That said,

Going to close this here, though I won't be working on your progress report until probably tomorrow evening - other work has taken a bit longer than I'd planned, but is at the point where I should be able to hammer it out tomorrow.

-Reaction of Snowfire to the placement of this turn's dice rolls, colourised.

Man, those dice must have been really good for us lol

Eh, I've been getting used to it.
And if I tell myself that enough times it might even be true.

We rolled a mean of 73. That's only about average, but apparently the cries came about from the exact distribution of the highest numbers.

I mean, I wouldn't want to be just a crazy person. I'd aspire for Crazy Awesome, if possible.

Look, just because I have a dozen other people in my head doesn't make me crazy. It's the way they keep nitpicking my writing that does that.

Let one of the other's write, and do the nitpicking yourself.

I've tried that. If I let Michiru write then it's all purple prose and randomness, and that's with her being one of the better ones at writing. You've seen the nonsense Blanc puts out.

"Helping Baughn write" isn't what the interdimensional link is for, anyway. Considering Michiru, I suspect it's mainly for personal amusement. Amanda may have deeper reasons to do all this, but that girl still just wants to have fun.

If you say so, Cyndi.

Cyndi is the silent one, you mean Maria.

I was just looking through the character sheet, and the description of the Multi Tool is still like this:

Multi-tooI: A leftover from your time rebuilding the broken cities of Earth, this is probably one of the most Practiced items you ever created. A decade spent using it to channel your Focus into physical change has turned the basic device into a sleek thing of almost dizzying utility. Unfortunately, you've since forgotten half of its functions.

I thought we researched and integrated it, or am I mistaken?
Or is the description just not updated yet?
