Pokemon Umbral Discussion 24: I Can Has Pokemon? - Page 2

Hey, I never said it's a great idea. Just someone's gotta do it, you know?

I mean, Renny and Impact are best buds now, Matthias doesn't do anything, and Charlotte is more likely to side with Impact.

Also, no. If you post your strategies in the discussion threads then you'll only be posting the revised strategy in the RP thread and Renny and Pierce won't get to do anything.

Unless you either decide to have Impact give an incomplete revised strategy, or make your RP post and then post the strategy in discussion.

And I'll contradict you whenever I damn well want!

Probably this. We've already been doing it really. We each discuss what we think we should do, I post it with intentional mistakes, the two of you post pre-arranged corrections, usually related to the suggestions you made OOC.

Alternately, though I'm not really sure of this: I could imagine giving both Pierce and Renny a share of authority. Like, Renny could be in charge of the medic as well, while Pierce works closely with the Shock Trooper. The bigger our group gets, the more authority the two of them would receive. And you'd be controlling them yourself. The other two could always suggest actions (like, there's a high-value enemy target, and me and Renny suggest that Pierce have his Shock Trooper attack it, he'd comply if he wants to, but he'd have a choice).

Mind you, I felt rather hesistant to post that last suggestion, since, I think that, if not Menarker, then at the very least Drac will get rather... hungry for power, once he gets a taste.

Hey, don't you lump me in with you, power-hungry mongrel!

I am totally cool with power! It's Menarker you should worry about. That nice-guy act is just a ruse to get you to give him power!

Menarker · 05-28-2010, 09:19 AM

Oh please. Renny had power for the last two missions. Things went well. ^^

Although both times he wasn't with Impact or Pierce.

And yeah, Medic totally sounds like something Renny would support and ensure goes right under his guidance.

As for the whole contradicting thing, Renny will continue to do it in character if he thinks it benefits the situation. Impact got assured Veto, so there is no harm to him if Pierce or Renny contribute their tactics. He'd get to pick and choose and be advised of any mistakes, but the assured veto ensure things go smoothly. Trying to request that he not be countermanded is not only suspcious, but rather stupid because it's part of their job to contribute alternatives where possible, and making them hold back cruical info from their leader is not doing their job. *Shrug*

As for on the discussions. I'll do it when I want! *Which is to say, when I wanna debate tactics relevant to the situation, and not for the sake of shits and giggles*

Edit: Off to work for 8 hours. Be back in around 9ish hours.

I'll get to posting right after I've checked out the other RP threads my dumb ass is in.

I should've posted last night, but I got too deep in Dead to Rights: Retribution. Jack Slate and Shadow are just fuckin' awesome. Nothing like missions where you play Shadow, sneaking up behind criminals and quietly ripping out their throats so the other guys don't notice that they're being slaughtered one-by-one.

Oh, yeah. Totally creating a dog NPC for Rayleen. Not even a Pokemon, just a dog.

EDIT 1: So that post by Geminex in the second page. That's the one I should follow, right?

Spitz issues a request for battle. Right now. He already knows he can't beat Buck or Sol-leks, so he challenges this new one.

I see your point. But I'm not saying that they should just sit there and do what they're told. That would be, like you said, rather stupid. I am saying that, if they have a better idea, they should be suggesting it. Instead of, y'know, just giving orders to the contrary of what Impact gave. Cause see, battle is really not a good place to present a divided front, so to speak.

Dracorion · 05-28-2010, 06:10 PM

"Excuse me, Mr. Impact sir, I think maybe we should try concentrating o-"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP BITCH, I'M IN CHARGE AND I GIVE THE ORDERS."

Yup.

I'm making this battle short to get you to the good stuff. Cerulean Wildfire is far from the most interesting highlight of this mission.
