    I'm glad I'm not the only one that is highly suspicious of Alf.

    OK, if new people join this, then will they be disadvantaged relative to the people who were involved from the beginning?

    Probably, though more likely in a meta sense.

    What do you mean?

    I'm interested in this, but if I'm just going to be a bystander with no ability to influence things, then there's not really much point in me getting involved.

    I mean, relationships form, people become friends. Even though there's no straight power disadvantage, that's already happened.

    Well, if you're thinking in a purely OOC sense then, sure, but that happens out of the game just as much as in the game. If you're talking about carrying over previous relationships made in-game to this version, then that's a bit unfair, because people joining newly won't have the chance to make those relationships, even though we're supposed to have been here as long as you have been.

    Also, what about the things you've learnt in the previous thread (powers etc.)? Surely we're going to be disadvantaged in that respect, too....

    It's unfair, sure, but there's equally little way to give you IC interaction in something that's now over.

    But, giving you an extra advantage like that is going to make it hard for new people to join. Really, it should just start from scratch....

    Bro, it's not exactly good for us if new people join. Alf and I have enough work along with this that the existing player load isn't exactly easy. And we're not starting it from scratch for a few reasons, but first among them that would be unfair to all the previous IC work people have put in.

    Hey Mike, if you join you could be my friend IC! Besides, you can PM people and ask about relationships if you want to.

    Right, so what you're saying is that you're trying to discourage people from joining by screwing them over...?

    And we're not starting it from scratch for a few reasons, but first among them that would be unfair to all the previous IC work people have put in.
    And it's unfair to me that I wasn't allowed to put in that "IC work"....

    Not that I expect Shaderic to actually listen to what I have to say, because he hasn't the last three times he's screwed me over....

    Except that I can't, because your goal is explicitly contradictory to the reason I want to join in the first place...

    Besides, you can PM people and ask about relationships if you want to.
    Well, perhaps, but it's a lot harder to do that when said relationships have already formed.

    I'm not sure where you see this going anyways. Alf has a lot of work (and you won't do that anyways), I can't take you, I don't think Shade has the time... Yun might be able to, but he seems to have time issues also.

    And it's unfair to me that I wasn't allowed to put in that "IC work"....
    Not my fault that you pissed off Shade and didn't get in the first time.

    So? It's not like that's common knowledge. To the world I'm a nice, outgoing cool dude. I never mentioned my goal to anyone, so IC you'd have no reason to hate me.

    Well, perhaps, but it's a lot harder to do that when said relationships have already formed.
    Maybe, but we worked to make those relationships happen, too. Everyone talked over PMs, in posts, and over IRC to make all our efforts bear fruit. Surely simply PMing some people and asking couldn't be that hard?

    Well, Shaderic said new players were welcome. So, unless he's just outright lying....

    Not my fault that you pissed off Shade and didn't get in the first time.
    I didn't actually do anything, he just decided to kick me for absolutely no good reason. And, then, he prevariacated about accepting me and failed to actually reply to any of my PMs (despite me keeping it private, rather than complaining publically about his unfairness) until he decided that the RP was "full" and told me to piss off....

    So, what you're saying is that I can obtain an "ally" who is promptly going to stab me in the back when I actually try to do anything?

    Yeah, that's so helpful to me....

    Maybe, but we worked to make those relationships happen, too. Everyone talked over PMs, in posts, and over IRC to make all our efforts bear fruit. Surely simply PMing some people and asking couldn't be that hard?
    You've had a lot more time to work those things out, though....

    Or that he's talking about people who haven't already been rejected.

    Don't care what you did or didn't do, it happened.

    From what I can tell, I wasn't "rejected", as such. He just said that the RP was "full"....

    Don't care what you did or didn't do, it happened.
    Shut up, Leo, I'm not interested in your sycophancy....

    Rather the same difference.

    Shut up, Leo....
    I think not. Now, I'll just wait for Shade.
