Gero the following message is not meant to be taken in a negative manner whats so ever. I hate being the one who has to get near potential "combat/fights" with other people OOC but this kinda needs to be said.

In a way team Shinichi is locked in place. I refuse to post because logically from a roleplaying standpoint Kato would not go against his own plan and risk ruining it. Therefore, there is virtually no way Kato is going to move from his spot which also means that Im relying on someone else to post to give me something to post about other then waiting. Gowl has also mentioned that they don't want to move as stated by them saying that they don't want to make a post about "waiting" because they feel it would be terrible filler which I honestly do agree with. ForcedSmile has been afk for sometime now (I do realize people get busy but come-on, its been weeks and not even a very simple paragraph has been written) and a post from him is honestly the only thing me and Gowl can rely on to progress the story.

You have mentioned that Shinichi is basically "staying in place" or at least a clone of him is. This effectively leaves us with very few options. Option A would be to compromise the whole plan (which non of us want to do from a roleplay standpoint) by rather attacking from the shadows or send a clone out to attack Shinichi, etc. Option B would be have ForcedSmile's character fuck up the whole plan and attack Shinichi, however we are locked out from this option due to him effectively being AFK and a god-mod would be the only option to fix this if he doesn't post himself. Of course Option C would be Shinichi walking right into the ambush which he initially wanted us to set up anyway however your last post basically shows us that you don't want to do this which is kinda understandable.

I think the problem spawned from a misunderstanding at the beginning. I personally thought that when you asked to form a ambush your character meant for us to hide and then he would go ahead and simulate a group walking through the forest that is going to need jumped. I didn't think you mean form a "trap" which basically would have been an ambush that someone would have had to lead you in to. I can't speak for Gowl or the others but that was my understanding and apparently I was completely wrong making my plan not appropriate for the situation. You could argue that Kato could just "speak up" from the bushes but at the same time we now don't have those 5 minutes to formulate another plan plus we are all relatively far enough from each other that we'd need to speak relatively loudly for everyone to hear. 

This message is not meant to start a whole war and I honestly don't even want a small conflict, I just wanted it to be know that me and Gowl feel basically "locked" in the situation. This is literally just a training session and it has taken over 3 or so weeks, nearly a month. I wouldn't be to pissed if this was a long, well thought out mini-campaign for our group but this is just a short training session that should have just been a "alright show me your skills. Cool now show me how you work as a team, Cool thats a wrap, now we're done for today so go ahead and walk around and talk to each other (lil breaking of the forth wall there teehee)." Im trying to send this message as respectfully as I can and Im posting it in the OOC incase Gowl wanted to contribute to it.

What should be taken away from this message? Basically we just need to find a compromise or something that will progress the story along. Roleplaying is suppose to be fun and enjoyable and being locked because both sides don't want to do what the other side does, and because someone has been AFK for a little bit, is simply just not fun. I hope you understand the need to figure this out and I also hope you don't take this in any negative manner.
