Valkyria Chronicles: Lions of the South

@Raven_Operative

Two quick questions:

Would it be ok for me to post again?

Also, would it be ok if Eris knew a bit about General Jaeger? He's kind of a living legend but I still prefer to ask before doing something like that.

Though, I realize its like asking if a WWII tank commander can know who Rommel is. Even so, I better be sure.

War Notes

I have a few more questions. What do we know about Rocs? Like do they hunt near their nests or are they long range hunters for example.

Do we know of about my weaknesses or fears that Rocs have?

How determined are they to pursue prey?

How is the weather currently(unless I missed that in the post)?

Finally, how do they usually attack? Like in swarms or are they usually solo hunters?

@Bushman501

Good questions. I'll answer them later, or at most tomorrow.

Hmm, Evan. All you want to do is sleep all day. It'd be a shame if a few girls dragged you away to go shopping....

@Bushman501

Someone gotta carry the bags. Hehehe...

The GMing Catch 22

While GMing, it's a customary thing to come across player problems where, no matter the solution you present, or the way you address it, you'll always be considered in the wrong.

For example, you post a comment on the OOC that gets misinterpreted by someone. Either they think that you are being too blunt, or outright sadistic, or that you are patronizing them. When you try to explain that no, they didn't get the meaning of what you said right (which is especially jarring when you use direct language to avoid misunderstandings), they come up with false arguments about you being intolerant and always trying to be on the right (some times appealing to straw man fallacy). Less mature players can actually dive straight for finger pointing and yelling, leaving no room for a civilized talk.

So, the question of this thread is: What do you do while GMing when you find yourself in this kind of scenario where either you are being taken as too harsh or patronizing, with no middle ground for a talk? In addition, how do deal with players that place you in this kind of scenario where no talk is viable? How tolerant are you of it?

I'll likely post sometime closer to this weeked, as usual.

As one additional note, I might begin the OOC either later today or tomorrow. I'm just trying to see if this can get some more interest before going for the next stage.

* PS: At most the OOC will be up during the weekend since beginning it during the middle of the week doesn't sound like a good idea to get interest, in retrospect.

Well, well, that's certainly interesting. Let me see...

1 - The length of the skirt is officially set to bellow the knees, though the actual uniform everyone is provided with comes with a standard ankle length skirt. You character can always be one to play around technicalities, if she feels like it.

2 - Zipper, to make them easier and more comfortable. The ribbon is just additional decoration, though it has to be tied, not premade.

3 - As one bit of anachronism, I'm more in favor of modern style underwear being introduced a few decades before they became common place IRL.

Sounds like student council would be fun. Too bad disciplinary committee is not going to be a thing, as that was my original idea.

@Bushman501

We can make it a thing if you want to. It's not like the school has any specific structure at this moment.

Goddamn, I'm surprisingly having trouble deciding what kind of character I want to play as.
