Well, Dieter is pretty much the semi-competant comic relief villain of this story so far...

Also, I predict that no posts will exist for this thread. I can do that because I'm just that good .

I'm trying to make Sean the little engine that could.

If you're talking about the pure stupidity of Sean's "What attacks can I do?", then it's simply to make a funny "dick" character....Also, he's drunk, so it's not like he'll be thinking right. If you're talking about the fact that I have him take alot of damage, then it's simply that's how I RP all my characters.

In the OYW RPG, My character went through at least 9 Zaku's, a Dom, a Gyan, a couple zeon planes, and a gelgoog....I don't like making my guy out to be the invinsable character. I find it kind of cheap.

And you must be a witch!

The only thing left for you to do will be to portray Sean fighting with booze withdrawal symptoms, maybe have Neo Ireland cut off his alcohol budget for once. Mind you, I suspect that it will make Willy even more vocal and annoying

. Still, your RP style (and Fritz's) is extremely refreshing because you really get into your character. Kudos.

Neo-Ireland, Neo-Scotland and Neo-England need to kill each other already

You missed the potential fight between Ascension's guy and Sean. I forget how it happened....but it was before there was a Neo-England in the RPG...and I stated that Sean beat Neo-England, and that's why he was so pissed off at Sean....Cardi needs to do a retcon :p

But if he quits the drink, he'll never be able to enter his Drunken Fighting super spectacular mode!

But thanks for the compliment, but I should note that I modeled most of Sean after myself...like the trash talking part and the love of boiled dinners....and he has my exact name :p

I'm back.

*Insert long excuse involving spring break and a blizzard here*

It's actually why I jumped to make Neo-England when the second group of signups were allowed

Ooh, so does Willy visit you at night?

That wouldn't be very pleasant, I imagine.

Anyway, the bar fight continues. Some times, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, especially if he's abusing his kung fu...

Ok, that was so lame its disturbing.

ORegan · Wed Mar 12, 2008 5:58 am

I actually got the idea for Willy from the Simpsons. Ralph Wigum claimed there was a leprechaun that told him to burn things...and using my favorite Groundskeeper for a name..bingo..*Not very original*

She just destroyed the incoming table and shouted at Tao, actually.

Righto. Editing now.

In case anyone cared, I finally finished the fight. (Yay!!!) Yeah, so someone might wana call it...

Also, is the current situation at O'Malley going on at the same time as my fight or later? I'd at least lie to watch the fun...

Recon 5 · Thu Mar 13, 2008 7:31 pm

A bit late for that. The fight's almost over unless someone else interferes. The man will be back soon, though. You can count on it.

No doubt you have noticed my recent absence. I am sad to say that I'm sort of going through an emotional breakdown right now, and college is really being a pain, so I'm afraid I'm going to have to drop my online RPGs. I enjoyed the ride while it lasted. Goodbye and good luck. Maybe I'll see you again sometime in the future.

Recon 5 · Tue Mar 18, 2008 8:49 am

Don't feel too bad about it. After all, Mechatalk is always open. Its been great having you on this board.

CYNICISM AT IT'S BEST · Wed Mar 26, 2008 8:16 pm

so what's the good word on this thing?

Wedge14 · Wed Mar 26, 2008 8:24 pm

Urgh. I'm so sorry about this.

I've been super busy!! I'm in night school for culinary arts, and am still doing the whole police academy thing during the day.

That plus my part time job and an excessive life of drinking and partying down usually keeps me pretty sapped.

But don't worry. I'm gonna try and sort some things out before the weekend is over. Hopefully me and Cardi can either get things moving again, or we'll have things ready to move again.

Once again, i'm really sorry about this!

EDIT: I'm just waiting to discuss something Cardi.

Wedge14 · Wed Apr 02, 2008 2:48 pm

The decision was made yesterday, but I decided to wait to today to inform everyone. With mine and Cardi's current schedule we have decided that both of us are unable to GM a game as demanding as this one. Considering the high number of drop outs and the amount of time it has spent in limbo we believe it would just be best to close this game.

I'm sad to see her go. And i'm really sorry for the people who feel a lil' gipp'd because of this news. But in retrospect this game ran quite well. We actually broke an old MT curse with the AU rpgs! All in all i think we had quite a success.

I'd like to thank everyone involved, Heretic, Cardi all our players. All the people who took over abandoned characters, all the people who nerfed their suits in the sake of fairness.

Thanks guys. I look forward to the next rpg. That takes this ol girl's spot. I'll try and take a run at GMing another perhaps.
