False Flags Flown OOC

[Gian Greydragon]

@Darasaurus are you saying you're going to throw a grenade, and then try to pull my axe to the side? I don't think you'd have time to do an action like that and then try to interrupt one of mine, since we're at a fairly close range already. Unless I'm misunderstanding something about the rules here, I don't see how that works.

And also, in the line 'If he had planned on moving he would find his feet firmly planted against his will' how so? Is the adhesive grenade stuck to his foot, or are you using for stasis to keep him there? If its the former, I'd argue that that kind of accuràcy at night with a thrown grenade isn't possible.

Well I was thinking that originally. But @Ediwa 's post actually says he does several actions in his post like patting himself down and such. He replied to Jory which has to happen after the last post because they can't both talk at the same time. Then patting himself down and then the axe coming. So it's more or less a case of Jay's post stating there is more of a window for things to happen despite being posted after you post. If that was unintentional it is probably just a case of miscommunication among team mates.

Brent is not pulling the axe to the side. It's more or less pushing it enough so that it just misses Jory since both Sota and Brent are influencing the weapon with the force as it travels.

Grenades have an area of affect. They're grenades. They're usually a meter off and with him being down in front of the living quarters, already visible it's not like it's hard to hit the ground. Maybe a foot or two in any direction but I don't think anybody would reasonably miss that especially with his back turned and unmoving at the time of the toss.

Ah! I was thinking like they were sticky bombs from the early CoD games. I understand now.

Nope, they are just non-lethal stickiness. Hence why Brent had thought it would be funny to cover a drunk rebel. At least that is what Brent had originally planned.

Mum get the camera!

@Darasaurus Jay shot at Jory only then started watching your building unless I'm missing something here. I think noone shot at you.

Also when's the adhesive ending? I read it's two turns. Would it fade now or in the next one lol? I rp'd the effect in two posts.

@Malon I wouldn't mind if you only had your character heavily injured.

Did you turn? If you said that in your post I'll edit out that Jay's back is turned though I figured since Brent tossed it at Jay while his back was turned that he would be stuck in that direction since he can't turn around.

The affect lasts for two posting rounds. So the round that it impacted did not count perse unless there was some substantial time where Jay was rooted in place from shared time. So I believe your next post will be the last one where he is stuck in place.

Turned, yes. Figured only your feet stick.

 

[Ediwa]

@Darasaurus when will u edit?

 

[Darasuum]

@Darasaurus when will u edit?

Sorry, must have missed this since I was at work or something. Totally my fault for not seeing this. I just edited out the back being turned bit. Let me know if I missed something.

Also I don't think I answered your bit earlier about people shooting at Brent. I believe @Gian Greydragon 's character shot at him twice. "firing two bolts upward at the Jedi he'd made eye contact with moments prior" but was not sure so if that is not the case I'll edit that out too if you want.

@Ediwa I mentioned it on discord just as quick comment the other day but it's probably better I mention it officially here. The adhesive grenade is still in affect this round. The grenade being thrown, impacting and while it affected the second half of your post when it was used you are mentioning that it ends after the first half of your most recent post. It would still be in affect at least until the end of the current round if not overlap into the next.

Overlap in the next? That would make three and half rounds of effect.

#16: half way through the post Jay gets stuck from the adhesive. = 0.5 of a turn

#20: half way through the post Jay gets unstuck. = another 0.5 turn

total: 1 turn

So far Jay has not been stuck for one whole round, just split halfway through both posts. I would say at least until the end of your most recent post he is rooted in place

I'll check this tomorrow, you might be right.

Please do so sooner rather than later. Your team clock ended Thursday 4:16 CST ( @Faded timed out) so I have until saturday until Saturday at 4 PM to post but I need your edits to be made before I can do so.

I don't think mods want us to split rounds up like that. That's where things get confusing. If an adhesive grenade is thrown and goes off at the beginning middle or end of a post, it should still count as that whole round, not half of one because it was an action taken on one concrete round, not a round broken up between, say, two team members. Since time is very fluid and non-linear in PvP, it wouldn't make sense for something to count for half a round here and another half a round there. I'm gonna tag Loco and Gaba, so they can weigh in on this if they think it's necessary.

If that's the case that's fine. That would still mean that Jay is stuck in place until the end of the current round.

You interrupted an action with your grenade in the post above throwing the grenade. That was the first half it had effect. Since then I posted once, fully affected. Then now I think it would fade half way through, because that makes two posts. Especially not effected in a third?

It's shared time. You don't count based on my posts. You count based on your posts.

@Ediwa @Gian Greydragon @Faded @Malon I have reported the latest post of Jay's actions since I had roughly only an hour left until I time out. The requested edits have not been made yet and I won't ask for an extension just to ask you to make some changes to your post. I hope you understand.
