I thought I'd try a new game I thought of. Basically, you take a snippet of post, like this:
I knew Subdern meant well with his tweaking and toying with things, but ultimately, I also knew how the government worked. How the Army worked. Troopers carried the old E-11 rifles into 15 Galactic, AT-ATs still made the backbone of heavy armor units, and AT-STs were still the main skirmishing units. The Empire wasn't exactly big on changing things. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but I had noticed he'd been devoting more and more effort to his idea. I'd even heard that he managed to make a demonstration. I just hoped that if the most likely outcome came to pass, it didn't hit him too hard.
-Kendra Jendob
Then, you explain, in your own words, what the player was thinking when they wrote that, like this:
"I just don't want to admit that Jase had a nice weapon idea..."
-Moff
It's irreverent; it's probably always wrong; and it might just be fun to do. So, you know, enjoy! Or don't.

Quote: | Badim Soilding
He finally made it to the Docking Ports, devoid of life as it seemed. Covered in shadow with construction and remodeling equipment laced everywhere as The Union workers took their natural lunch breaks. He saw a landing pad with a shuttle ahead, Badim walking slower this time against the wall in an attempt to conceal himself. As he got closer, figures meshed and formed in front of it. He got closer, the lead man yelling out, “I see you, Soilding!” he said, kicking his feet hard as a datapad slid across the floor to him. Badim was exposed and left the datapad where it stopped as he left the shadows. Boldly and cautiously approaching the man.
“That’s far enough,” the man, in a crisp clean cut suit replied. Armed guards taking his side, aiming loosely to detour him from coming any further.
“What do you want?” Badim asked aloud, his fists curling as he waited.
“Recognize her?” the man said, waving two guards into the shuttle, then bringing out a bound Clare in front of him. Clare… No, not--
“You Frakking--!”
“No talking! Just watching,” he yelled in reply, cutting Badim off halfway into his cursing.
He snapped a finger, a guard tossing a blaster to the man, promptly pointing it to Clare’s back. “You killed the only one I had left in my life. The only one I had left to love and cherish. Now… I take one of yours.”
Badim only got one glimpse at Clare, dazed and confused. Only able to glance at him with a sad, hopeless face that donned her. Then a flash of red exploded, screams from Clare ensued, then a deathly silence falling over her as she fell to the ground. Dead and motionless. |

Quote: | Kris watched his father. For the first time in years, he actually saw his father. “Oh,” he said quietly, bewildered. He knew of no words that fit this context. “So, you held onto this since then.”
“Well, I intended to give it to you,” Dad continued. “A couple years ago,” he said with a hint of accusation.
He had meant to give it to his son on the day of the birthday party, when tensions had erupted.
Kris looked down, surprised to feel guilt. He closed the box carefully as his father went on. “But it’s more important that you have it. I know what it meant to you.”
“Well, I’m glad you kept it,” Kris offered, not able to express his gratitude in any other way. He let himself feel the moment, not able to analyze it. After some time, he spoke again, slinging his bag around his shoulder and taking the little box into his hands. “I’m done, so I’m going to head out.
“All right, then,” the elder Jendob replied. Kris nodded to his father then walked past him, quietly, as he descended to the first level of the house. “Take care of yourself,” Dad added, almost involuntarily.
Kris was glad that his father couldn’t see the look of confusion on his face.

I might if I had remembered this game still existed. Not that I'm the only one who's apparently forgotten about it.

Hey, you're the players. It's your job to play the game... we admins just set the stage. <_<
Plus I've been out of power for the last 15 hours and nearly lost a post I'd been working on last night, so give me a break. _________________ Emperor Ams Jendob, Ruler of the Imperial Remnant

Here, Ams. I did one just for you.
Quote: | "Your Majesty, with all due respect,” Nosfer paused as a look of alarm flashed across the Empress' face. “I'm used to it. I've been serving the Empire, off and on, for half of a century. Humans are humans: some can accept others, some can't.
“Nevertheless, I do appreciate your sentiments on the matter,” the engineer added, giving a respectful nod.
The empress nodded in agreement. “We have no intentions of tolerating any discrimination... on any grounds." |
That's right, folks. I'm a competent Gungan. Deal with it. - Ams _________________ Morgan ZIM: Bounty Hunter, Gun for Hire, Freelance Peacekeeping Agent, Cybernetic Scoundrel, and all around disruptor of the normal order of things. |

Awww, that's so sweet... also, he's not just a competent Gungan (since George is putting them into the Clone Wars show as revenge for Jar Jar hate)... he's a Gungan Daniel Graystone. _________________ Emperor Ams Jendob, Ruler of the Imperial Remnant

And now, won't you join me while I take advantage of 'It was all just a dream' in order to reminisce about and proxy roleplay the days of VII and VIII...a time when the Empire still ruled Coruscant, when new posts were a regular thing and major players didn't commonly disappear for weeks at a time, and I could actually get away with Shayera being a crossover expy of DC Comic's Hawkgirl. - Moff _________________ Morgan ZIM: Bounty Hunter, Gun for Hire, Freelance Peacekeeping Agent, Cybernetic Scoundrel, and all around disruptor of the normal order of things. |

WRONG! Bwahahahahaha! But close.
That actually is quite different from... well, almost everything in my old Ams character beyond his physical appearance, which I didn't get into. It's more of a backdoor pilot that will likely never go into production. >_>
...And if it does, the wings are likely to be absent. Raises too many questions about tailoring and I just don't know enough on the subject to deal with it. Also... godmodding, but... the tailoring issues are worse. _________________ Emperor Ams Jendob, Ruler of the Imperial Remnant

I'm not deceiving anyone. No one wants to do a VII reboot. Hell, I can't even finish the pilot post that would cover the Battle of Coruscant... mostly because SW is so horribly inconsistent and illogical that even trying to reboot it from a basic level seems doomed to failure. Cray won't make the board, Han likely won't play... so there goes the admin team (and, you know, infrastructure ). And 60% of the time, I don't really even want to play it beyond fixing the godawful backstories I wrote for Ams and Shy. Oh, and because I occasionally miss playing Master of the Navy Squadrons. So, building an RPG around fixing two characters and slapping a bulky asset system down that everyone hated and led to horrendous power-plays, skirting on the edge of rules, and turned the game from "cooperative happy fun time with nationsim elements" to a Civ Domination match a good RPG foundation do not make.
But, eh, it's been bugging me a while... so I thought I'd see where it went. It was fun. I might be willing to extend it in a fanfic series... except that cuts into my time for writing 6700-word novellas on Unity.
And Jawa... you vindicated a couple stylistic choices I made. For one, I was getting burned out toward the end of the dream as written, but it was intended to go much further. And... perhaps disregard a content rule or two. Flagrantly. Mostly to troll Cray, who was obligated to read it and encouraged said violations. <_<

All I ask for is a consistent application of the laws of physics.
Oh, and maybe some safety handrails for epic railing kills instead of just "aieeeeeeeeeeee!" Not to mention, I dunno... like redoing would erase a bunch of mistakes CMAC—and I especially—made in setup, handling, approving stuff that shouldn't have been, denying stuff that shouldn't have been... plus the ENDOR HOLOCAUST!
Not to mention undoing that all-time favorite design... Akulas. <_< _________________ Emperor Ams Jendob, Ruler of the Imperial Remnant

Hopefully we'll have some more posts soon to hilariously take out of context...? And people to take them out of context?

Well, the battle just needs some setup posts from us... on that front, anyway. <_<
In general... well, that's actually the only part I can help you with. Once I finish my Fluoro and Spec reports for my instrumental analysis class, I actually get back into this much more fully.
