@Delta44

Never played it unfortunately. I do have the anime on my watchlist though.

@Guess Who

Perhaps so. Maybe it's just because I kept on reading people talking about her that I kind of just... eh at her route. Though you gotta admit, all of their stories are pretty good.

@Polaris North

Yep, can agree.

@Guess Who

Indeed. It has been a while since I've seen someone else who didn't tell me that Hanako is best girl. One does not simply finish Katawa Shoujo without feeling depressed.

@Polaris North

Her story was good, but I think it's way overhyped, especially compared to the others.

@Guess Who

Yeah. It really pulled on your heartstrings. And once you get to the near-end point of Lilly leaving, you just can't put the game down. It just pumped my blood up so much. While it didn't make my cry, I just felt sad. And none of the other stories made me as sad.

@Polaris North

Yeah, like I said, I almost cried. Can still keep my manly pride intact with the knowledge that no game, book, movie, show, etc. has been able to make me that sad. It still made me extremely depressed though.

@Guess Who

Yessss, someone who shares my opinion on who the best girl is.

@Polaris North

Lilly's ending was the closest a story has ever come to making me cry, even thought I got the good ending, which is really saying something as stories about romance have never made me feel that way before. The possibility that she left without Hisao getting the chance to talk to her one last time was just heartbreaking.

All this talk about body types.

Lest us not forget the power of the irish.

My favorite Irish hero has to be Conchobar mac Nessa. You can't tell me that a man being officially recognized by the church as being baptized in his own blood is not metal as fuck.

@Guess Who

Gah, I always forget to ask this. But do you know where your FC came from? Because I absolutely love that game's plot.

@Polaris North

If you're referring to the image I used for my character, watch this video all the way through for my thoughts on best girl from Katawa Shoujo:

Alright. Alls fun and games. I already did this in the discord. But for funs, and those not in it.
I did a ranking. Being that this is a dxd rp. It goes like this:
Rin -> Kohana -> Ekibe -> Nora

I could be wrong. But for now. How it is lol XD

@Demon Shinobi

Seems fair.

Tree has just informed me that that ranking was in fact not for power levels and now I feel like an idiot.

Nora Evans

@Demon Shinobi

Nora was quiet as she listened to Tsumiki's words, her facial reaction staying fairly consistent throughout his explanation. Had he shown up hours earlier before her Sacred Gear began to flare out of control, she probably would have mistaken him for an intruder and thrown him out of her home, thinking him either high or a pervert with a very creative imagination. After witnessing for herself the power she now wielded and its possible consequences though, she was much more open to the bizarre truth of her situation. Of course, that didn't seem to at all quell her desire to know more. In fact, it strengthened this craving for knowledge.

"So... I'm a devil too? With wings, a spaded tail, and all that?" she asked, that statement from her new master being what seemed to really stick out to the girl. "Does that mean I'll get my own pitchfork?" Nora added with an awkward sounding chuckle, quickly apologizing for her joke if Tsumiki didn't find it humorous with a shy, "Sorry."

Having now received a moment to really consider everything the silver-haired boy had said, she decided to stop hiding her stress and anxiety behind terrible jokes and asked a more serious question. "So what would be my duties under your... peerage I think you called it? I won't have to hurt people will I?"

First things first. I'm going to read over the IC one more time and then write a quick post.
I'm prioritizing this because @Guess Who can't post until I do and I need to move things along as the GM and make sure you all know I'm still here.

THEN! I'm going to go over these two characters, whom I've heard and read good things about thus far.
Sorry for the delays. And thank you for putting up with this unreliable King.

@Demon Shinobi

It's no problem. I know full well how busy life can get. I myself have been dealing with work, finals, and the stress of moving recently. Take however much time you need.

@Awesomoman64

I was just including people I know from real life, Awesome. Otherwise, I probably would have included half the entire cast of the RP.

I will thank those responsible for opening my eyes to the team thing. Never thought to use a 5-why on the problem, which is kinda derp since I use it daily at work, ugh. Not that I would miss them, but I can see why others would.

Regarding the credit system - I'm fine with the proposed changes for acquiring, but I would put forward a change at usage options as well. Right now it sort of hinders your ability to change your own character - Heck, even a creative way to use one's semblance requires credits, that's part of the reason why I had Diamond's be so unspecific. It's kind of pay to win, when you consider the differing amount of time and experience the players have. How about we change the credits to be more of a reward thing than necessity?

What I think the credits represent here is the individual player's ability to do things - high quality work, having the ability to dedicate time to it, ... - Let's give these players the option to run subplots (Ability to drive an engaging story others might ride on), create additional characters (Can dedicate time to more than one), things like that. But I don't think that having to depend on the subjective opinion of a contest judge, competing with people who may have more experience with the setting or just writing in general, or plain having the time to actually enter a contest on top of IC just to add 10 feet of chain to your weapon is the way to use this system.

That said, I also propose to give a fat credit bonus to someone actually running the mission for others, not just completing it - retroactively. Those people earned it.

@Forsythe

Pretty sure we did give people who ran missions some credits, because I remember at one point needing just a few more credits to buy the sub-plot I wanted to buy, and still haven't actually purchased yet, and Lugu or someone else pointed out that I should have enough thanks to running Team Jumpercable's mission.

@Write The only possible problem i can forsee for getting rid of GMs would if we have new people show interest in joining the RP. I guess we could all nitpick their CS as a group, but part of me can't help but think of how chaotic it may be if we're all trying to decide if there's room or not for them. I like everything else you've said and if you can come up with a solution for the problem I mentioned, or you're just sure I'm crazy and what I said isn't a problem, than I'm okay with it.
