Masters of Man and Beast OOC

[Oreus]

This seems like a fun one. Do we want to establish any rules beyond standard manaan? Also, any idea on timeline compared to other events for this one, Sith who started it?

 

[Phoenix]

Hey @Darth Magnarus just a heads up that you're up, i'd hate you to get skipped since we're approaching the 48 hour mark

 

[Darth Magnarus]

Yeah I've be down with the flu but I used all of my strength to post :) so you can carry on with the thread now

That sucks, feel better mang

 

[Oreus]

Hey @Maxx you're up I believe and was still looking for an answer from a few posts ago here ;)

Also might be a good idea to edit to an ask thread. We got enough of a crowd.

 

[Phoenix]

@Maxx don't forget to post

 

[Maxx]

Alright, I've posted and closed the thread to any other newcomers.

@Bauren, as for any special rules, I don't know about anyone else here, but with this being my character's first thread I'd prefer he didn't die. Injury however I'm more open to.

So if you all like it, have this be a no death, but injury allowed fight.

@Maxx

Open thread, no-death isn't really a thing, unless I'm mistaken.

However.

I, personally, can assure you that if my character ends up with yours on the wrong end of a lightsaber, I'll refrain from death.

 

[Crim]

It can be if we all agree, if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Jabonicus]

Just a side note: Acklay are not native to Geonosis. They originate from Felucia, their appearance in Episode II was due to them being imported.

 

[Arcangel]

So fyi this thread has technically timed out (2+ weeks).

Idk what you all want to do about it.

@Phœnix @Maxx @Darth Magnarus @Crim @Bauren @Jabonicus

I know that's technically a but it seems a bit impractical to have this many people in a thread and then only give it two weeks. It opens the possibility to have a bunch of people from the opposite faction jump into a thread, post slow, and then prevent any missions from the opposite faction from ever completing missions (not saying that's what the intention here was, but it does set a really bad precedent). I mean, in duels with only 2 people, they have two weeks and usually don't finish. For 7 people? Yeah never gonna finish. Food for thought.

 

[Oreus]

I get that but we weren't the ones posting slow we've all been waiting on Sith to post for days and want to move on. That argument might be valid if it was happening but the Sith side takes a week to post per round I don't want to be locked into that.

 

[Phoenix]

I'm not saying that's what's happening here, i'm just saying it's something for you guys to think about in the future. I get that you don't want to be locked into that but that doesn't change the fact that it's an impractical time for a thread of this size again, even if it's just for future reference it's something that the FLs for both factions might want to look at. Plus, I don't even know what will happen to the thread now. Seems a bit silly that it's an auto-loss for the Sith as there's nothing that's been done to prevent them completing their mission, but since the thread's barely even underway, there's no evidence of completion of mission either.

*shrug* seems like a rule that might need to be looked at. That might all be beyond this thread though, idk what everyone wants to do with this

 

[Oreus]

I get it. Yeah. I guess my point is that the thread moved slowly because we had a lot of people and some of them would take 2 days to post. Which quickly ate the whole time limit. I'm cool extending it or handwaiving the result with a few final posts. I just don't want us to drag on for weeks and be locked in per agreed upon faction conflict mission rules.

 

[Phoenix]

Yeah, I feel ya. It's cool, it's just a possible future concern

 

[Crim]

I'm fine with continuing this or just ending it. Doesn't seem like the Sith really want to fight, doesn't seem like some of the Jedi really want to fight.

Eh.

 

[Maxx]

I'd say if we can wrap it up in a few posts that's good.

 

[Oreus]

This really seems to have gone nowhere. I am happy to put together a closing post for the Jedi side and let y'all close it on your end. I'll get something up tonight if all goes well.

 

[Oreus]

Ok so if a Sith can post and end this thread that'd be great. Mine was short and sweet but we obviously are not going anywhere. Learning pains!
