Nuklear Wright, Power Attorney Case 3: Initial Complex

[Fenris]

(For the ill-equipped, and for the lawyers.)

Nothing will happen after this game, it is purely fictitious and in no way should it be taken as a declaration of intent.



January 10, 10:00 PM
District Court
Courtroom No. 4

Court is now in session for this unusual case of POS Industries. In this trial, the defense will be required to prove that POS Industries is worthy of being a mod at Nuklear Power Forums, whereas the prosecution must refute those claims. The trial will last for two weeks and then I, the venerable overseer of this trial will make my decision. A result of Not Guilty will result in a victory for the defense, whereas a result of Guilty will result in a victory for the prosecution.

In other words, the prosecution is accusing POS of being unfit to be a moderator and the defense must ward off their accusations.

The victim, Newb, formally lodged his complaint on December 31st, claiming that when POS is put in a position of power, he abuses it for his own amusement, claiming that POS let many people down with his "unsatisfactory" ending. I will let him testify as to why, where, when, what, and how.

Especially how.

Newb, get to the stand immediately and deliver your testimony with truth and tact.

The prosecution is ready, your honor.

(What? I like young Edgeworth...)

(Ack! I should have reviewed this case more thouroughly! Maybe I would have known what I was getting into then!)


The defense is...ready, your Honor.

((Truth and tact? I'm not sure how I can possibly combine those!))

Very well!

As you all know, POS' birthday happened recently, but a few days after he ended the game with his crappy ending!

I believe that he did this just because he didn't want to run the game on his birthday.

What's more, his game was so ****### bad that there's now a temporary ban on avvy RPs! Sure, the official proclamation is that the ending "awesomized" the game, but really, it's easy to see that the post was dripping with sarcasm.


It all began when POS blatantly stole the position in line that both Pyros and myself had been separately waiting for since Avvy 2 and Avvy 3, respectively. He wasn't the first to steal a slot like that, but he was certainly the most recent.

From there, the adventure that he claimed was only going to be a quick tournament, over in perhaps a month or two, transformed into an insane, over-involved chain of shenanigans in which he supposedly became a god and began erasing people from existence for acting up in the RaiRO forum.

The message here is clear. If he were a mod, he would go banhappy on people who are just trying to play a game.

And then, just as we were all about to confront him and defeat Pedro, his character, he ended the game, saying that it was all a dream! What a cop-out. What really happened was that he didn't want to be defeated, and he knew it was going to happen pretty darn soon!

I believe I already answered that question. Your attempts to pretend that I didn't already address that point annoy me.

Also, Your Honor, can I have permission to directly answer the defense's vile implication that I have a bias? Your limitation is currently preventing me from addressing that.

[Demonlink2]

I see a few things that are not helping your testimony, Mr. Newb-Blue Badger.

The first is that you were playing the game yourself. This automatically gives you a more biased tone towards the game and it's end, especially if you were to not play for another six months.


Secondly, The judge himself, Fenris, was the mod who locked it, so I believe he can speak for us when it comes to sarcasm about how awesome that ending was.


Lastly, The key piece of evidence lies within the final post itself. If my client were truly godly, as it is described, why would he want to end it?

If power and the abuse thereof would be too much for him, why would he willingly give up that power by passing it off as a dream?

[Bailey]

Meh, I have lots of games I can play. I don't think I'm biased because of the moratorium. One game more or less doesn't make too much of a difference to me. It's the making of the new characters that I like best, anyway.

Also, I suppose that Fenris can tell us for himself whether he was being sarcastic, but I'm saying that it's easy to see sarcasm dripping from that post, whether it's really there or not.

As for the whole getting rid of his power thing, I already answered that. He knew that we were going to beat him and simply claimed that it was all a dream so as to get out of the thrashing that was due him.

I would like to direct the court to the thread again. Upon further notice of Newb's posts on the last page...

Newb had last posted in it on the 19th. This is a 12 day span in which he did not do anything to counter any other post or further this Dragon plan- am I reading this right a DRAGON WITH FIVE HEADS?

Good sir, may I remind you that the client had the powers of a god. Godly wisdom and destruction and Godly Wrath. Which I believe a dragon cannot withstand, regardless of magical creature status. The witness is even a little unstable as seen in that when he goes to destroy my client, the dragon is wearing cutesy hats and a vest? This is not something a normal person with a death machine dragon would do.

In addition, I provide reasons why he was not sarcastic in the important part of the post.

I submit to the court, as evidence, Testimony from my client himself, concerning the Judge/Administrator at hand...

my RP was actually quite awesome but ran entirely too long and needed a break for the players and GM to recharge their batteries.

The "ending" was more or less a joke that was kicked around chat8bit for several minutes involving input from a number of people including Fenris himself, who assisted in locking the thread so as to not allow an in-game response from the other players.

The Judge, FenrisWolf, had a part in all of this. It was premeditated locking, and would no doubt have been locked by Admin Deus Ex Machina if my client had not suggested the amazing fix that he did. In fact this proves my client's responsibility if nothing else.

[Fenris]

What's all this hubbub about me being involved in all this? I'm not FenrisWolf! I'm the honorable judge, Judge Whitey!

Newb's Testimony added to Court Record

I would like to ask the defense to wait for me to allow cross-examination before harrassing the witness.

You may now cross-examine the witness, Mr. Wright. I should penalize you for your hastiness but I figure I didn't explain myself all too well, so I'm letting you off the hook. This time. Everything but Mr. Newb's testimony has been off-the-record.

[Mirai Gen]

The judge might like you Mr Wright, but I will not be so gentle.



So please, commence with your Cross-Examination. Only on cue this time.
