Man, I dunno what it did to you but I didn't get the "can't post twice" thing. Admittedly, I didn't try to post at all last thread after it glitched.

And I suppose I can make a new thread. Is that what you want Menarker? More Yaoi?

Technically, I said the RP thread, which we don't have the tradition of posting a pic on the first post. And I was asking AB too.

*Mad about it eating my post.*

EDIT: ANYHOW! AB, Here is the plan for your easy reference.

Moon: Construct Power Amplifier.
Rachel: Rage Rocket on Impact, Rage Rocket on Renny.
Impact: HV Rifle on Tinkerer, STAB due to armor. Use Signature Sequence Command, Control and Communications, pays for Milsha, Kurika, Cecilia, Aster and Shannon.
Pierce: Aria to use Thunder on Honchcrow. STAB and Amplified.
Signature Sequence Solidarity Counter on Golduck Pokebrid, Noctowl, HoA Acolyte A, Steelix, Kingdra Pokebrid and Pelipper.
Kurika: Devil's Dance on Bibarel. Fighting Type tech bypass Wonderguard by hitting Normal type weakness to Fighting. OHKO Bibarel.
Matthias: Sleep Powder on HoA Acolyte B.
Milsha: Fatal Five Strike on Tinkerer. Flinched on top of a bunch of status afflictions (Although Tinkerer is immune to paralyze). 50% chance of Instant Death (If Tinkerer does die, redirect other attackers to another target.)
Shannon: Florescence to use Worry Seed on Steelix to remove Sturdy.
Renny: Swampert Mimic Worry Seed on Pelipper to remove Volt Absorb.
Magnezone Thunders Pelipper. STAB and Amplified.
Wilhelmina: OHKO Steelix with Sniper Instant Kill.
Charlotte: Super Fang HoA Healer with Spitz.
Thunder on Pelipper with Pike. STAB and Amplified.
Moon (2nd): Fathom to use Blizzard on Honchcrow and HoA Healer. Amplified.
Shannon (2nd): Abomasnow to use Blizzard on Honchcrow and HoA Healer. STAB and Amplified.
Harliette: Illumise to use Helping hand on Harliette.
Vespiquen use STAB Attack Order on Tinkerer (High crit chance). If Tinkerer is dead, target HoA Acolyte A.
Charge Shot on Noctowl. Amplified.
Cecilia: Bo Strike on HoA Tinkerer. If it's dead, target Noctowl with Amplified Splash Bomb.
Aster: Switch to Gastrodon, Brine on HoA Healer. STAB and Amplified. Has 130 Power before STAB and amplification due to Healer being half dead before attack.
Trainer Attacks: Target HoA Acolyte A.

End Result:

Noctowl: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter. One Helping Handed Amplified super-effective attack.
HoA Acolyte A: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter.
HoA Acolyte B: Asleep.
Steelix: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter. OHKOed.
Pelipper: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter. 2 quad effective STAB Amplified attacks. Deemed KOed.
HoA Tinkerer: Milsha's Final Five Strike, one STAB neutral damage Slayer attack, one neutral damage attack. Deemed KOed. Flinched if not dead.
Bibarel: OHKOed.
Honchkrow: One super effective move, two STABed super-effective moves, all Amplified. Deemed Koed.
HoA Healer: Super Fanged, two STAB amplified neutral damage attacks, one STAB neutral damage 130-power Amplified attack. Deemed KOed.
Toxicroak: Untouched
Golduck Pokebrid: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter.
Kingdra Pokebrid: Turn nullified by Solidarity Counter.

Dracorion · 07-25-2010, 08:13 PM

Y'tried posting again?

Menarker · 07-25-2010, 08:20 PM

Took me quite a while to write the post and it disappeared. >_<

It's nothing really super special though. Renny impressed with Kurika, starting to see her somewhat like a role model although says nothing of the sort. Rejoins the group for the fight, agrees with Pierce's assessment but adds that Pelipper and Steelix seem like big threats too. Notes to Impact that most of them are trained to avoid standard combat tactics and firearms (physical evasion) and that the group should mostly focus on special attacks and should probably come up with some unconventional ideas. (Hinting that Moon should use Special amplifier and Shannon should probably pipe up with her pokemon's ability to use Worry Seed.) Has Swampert and Magnezone on the field.

Dracorion · 07-25-2010, 08:21 PM

Just post something stupid like "test" just to, y'know, TEST IT.

Menarker · 07-25-2010, 08:27 PM

I'm saying that in the previous thread that even when it did the "cannot post twice thing", the thread still worked for a period of time (people were posting on it), until something triggered the glitch and wiped stuff. I'd rather not tempt fate.

EDIT: BTW, the plan we agreed on, I updated it above (the one I colored for AB) just to touch up on moves, adding which ones were STAB, amp and what not as well as a few details.

Dracorion · 07-25-2010, 08:29 PM

Phhhbbttt.

I went and deleted my test post and then posted my real post and the thread hasn't glitched.

I betcha if I posted again it still wouldn't glitch.

Astral Harmony · 07-26-2010, 05:54 AM

Evening guys. Got home waaaay too late to do anything but laundry, eat a bowl of stupid, and peace the hell out watching this or that harem anime. Maybe Familiar of Zero.

Honestly, there's nothing stopping Pierce from becoming leader...except Impact. I'm certain that's obvious to all of us. Incidentally, I do recall suggesting a climatic battle on a runaway train heading towards a dead drop during a terrible thunderstorm.

Eldys Asherah is an enigma and even though it won't be long before she's introduced, much will remain a mystery about her until a good bit of the sequel has passed. Basically, she's an extremely sexy elven chick with a killer staff and tattoos that make her seem wild and even more ravishing than she already does. She's got her own reasons for believing Impact would be a good candidate (what "candidate" refers to will not yet be revealed, but more of Mena-chan's wild conjecturing might hit the mark) and intends to help him achieve his goal because god forbid Impact has the natural talent for becoming a world conqueror on his own. You know Lucretia from Suikoden V, the extremely knowledgable and beautiful tactician? Eldys is that type of woman, but she also brings formidable powers of her own. She's not up to Dinner's level. More like Ruin General or Gabriel Force strength. She will be instrumental in Impact's plans to become the villain, so long as he doesn't do anything to screw it all up and just does as she tells him to.

EDIT: As for post glitches, just do what I do. Copy. You don't exactly have to put it in a notepad or whatever, but just selecting it all and choosing to copy will make sure you still have the post in case there's some server hiccups.

Dracorion · 07-26-2010, 06:42 AM

Clearly, there is only one possible course of action here:

Kill Geminex.

AB can take over controlling Impact. He'd probably do a better job of it.

All in favor say "Aye!"

Geminex · 07-26-2010, 07:55 AM

The reason Impact is still the leader is that I had 15 minutes to come up with a plan, I had minimal info on our enemy or the resources available to us, and when I had formulated a plan, my laptop deleted it and I had to post what bits of it I remembered once I reached the internet cafe.

And despite all of that, looking at the plan we've finalized, it seems uncannily similar to teh one I proposed.

Soooo... yeah. If there were a contest for leadership, I'd do what I could to have the final decision depend on some sort of large-scale battle between the parties (probably just a punch-pulling contest, to prove our worth). And as long as the forces at our disposal were of appreciable size, I am moderately certain that I would come out ahead.

Also, we're trying to save the world here. Respecting the lives of your peers and superiors is real nice and all. But I was under the impression that we're attempting to save literally everyone, here. Any sacrifice that makes success more likely is justified a thousand times over.

Impact: Or don't you care about the billions of lives we're trying to save, Renny? Are you a corrupt little maggot, too enclosed in your own little world, too unwilling to truly comprehend the magnitude of our mission, that you'll let petty morality and concepts like "right" and "wrong" dictate your actions? You're competent, I will submit. But you aren't ruthless, and that... that would doom our cause. Place your competence in the service of one who can use it to benefit the greater good, Renny. Or are you arrogant as well, arrogant enough to insist that you would suffice as our leader?

...

Ahem.

Oh, and "Aye!".
Seriously, I'd like to see you try.
