The Jest

Ok, fair enough. But is it exactly, with the same characters, and Arthur, and what-have you? Or is there anything different? If so, what's that difference?

...Uhhh, ...Hello there. ...First off, I'll just move this over to the OOC area, if you don't mind. Secondly: Give a little more detail as to the story of what's going on? Location, the basics of the plot at least? Not asking for anything like giant paragraphs, but I think it's best we know a little more about what we would be jumping into, that's all.

Oi, Dylan. You know what posting here without adding a number means? ...It means you divided by Zero

@Gemini Man: Seriously though, Happy Birthday you magnificent Synchronist Master of Robots. ^_^

*Is about to go to bed when I check this place first.* Oh hey, you guys got pretty far...*Presses Delete* G'night. P.S. I didn't want to hack anyone or interrupt this early to say this, but really, Congrats on making it to the triple digits. You guys are awesome!

And Just this once, Just so I can say I did it...

Pizza turns out to be a bomb... House renovation's in order.

No, stopping you at 249 is mean. Stopping you in small numbers like 15 is Mercy. ...Speaking of which... ^_^

But don't go too fast. ...You might trip and stumble into a rift in time and space. In the end, there is only silence boys and girls. ...So run...Before it catches you once again. ...RUN! XD (Warning: Flashing lights)

Well, personally to me at least, this isn't writer's block material. ...But there really isn't anywhere else to put this kind of thing (Cept maybe the Fan works, but that's debatable) and I do appreciate you keeping this area alive while I work on my projects to put here. ...Or at least try to. So I suggest continuing what you're doing here. ^_^ That said, while I don't find these necessarily hilarious (Don't worry about it, my sense of Humor's weird. XD) I do find them somewhat clever, and in that sense, pretty good. Do keep it up. :D

"Broaden the Audience/Demographic"... You know, I think in any, ANY form of media, those words should be some kind of blasphemy or taboo. Can anyone tell me one time someone has ever "broaden the audience" and it turned out good? What is it with people and trying to press their luck with trying to expand the fanbase, especially when almost all, if not all, past experiences with doing so led to disasters for the franchise? And yes, I also agree at this point with Hypermetal. The victory apparently made him think he's on top of the world and wanting to be higher and higher, and it's getting to a disturbing point. ...But alas, All the better a spectacle it will be to watch him fall from such inflated heights.

Ok, that's where I draw the line. It's one thing to get kicked and make his own stuff with his own characters. I never liked the idea of the Lara-Su Chronicles, and never will, but it's still his characters, and he can do whatever he wants with them. Even if it means turning them into some alien race. Whatever floats his boat. But now to mock and insult Archie for something HE made them do, that officially makes Penders a jerk in my books. I don't care what he had to go through or what hardships he's been through, he has no right to go and insult people for the faults he MADE them make and then go "Oh, but I don't do those faults." Thus, my respect for him is lost, not that he'd care.

...66?

While I don't see much of a problem with Knuckles' plot, I'd prefer Skye's. This is for New RPers after all, so simplicity is probably the best course of action. I'd probably still join Knux's idea though.

As it stands right now, I wouldn't. If things on my end change, then maybe that decision will too, but until then, I'll have to pass.

So, basically, you want Option 4 without Option 2. That's not combining option 2 and 4 together, that's adding a bigger roster to option 4. Right, Skye, I personally recommend you split it to two RPs then.

...So basically your plan is "Lost in Space: The Sonic RP Edition". 1 problem with that: You have to remember that the purpose of Option 2 is to continue where the Comic's original continuity left off. If we combine it, we have to at least finish all the plot lines that were made in that continuity, that were never completed, before we get into space. ...That's part of the reason why I said that going between one and the other is drastic.

Yeah, all those problems you just mentioned? ...They can be easily solved by, again, changing the name. If you ship two characters by pretty much calling them spouses or something, of course the hate mail for shipping two incompatibles is understandable. Same for the whole Gay Marriage thing, which is something you don't want to get involved in, especially not right now when the states are in such an uproar between wanting it and not. (For the record, I'm not Homophobic. I have at least three friends, good friends, who are gay.) Just call them something that's not intimate at all. Marriage system sounds like a system where you and your husband/wife relies on each other out of love. ...Well, Best friends don't need love to rely on each other, partners don't need love to rely on each other. Personally I like your idea, it has potential, and I HAVE seen this kind of thing done before in an actual game. Just that name for it you need to change up. The ONLY real problem I can see with this is that it's a hell of a lot of extra work.

Or you could just rename it to something that isn't as intimate. After all, Sonic + Tails.....In marriage... How about calling it something like....I don't know, Partner, or Eternal Bond, or...Social Link? XD

As interesting as it sound, I'm afraid I'll have to decline. ...At least for now. Mine is a writing project, and if all goes well, will turn out rather differently, effectively making it possibly incompatible with the RPG. I can't afford RPG Maker right now, and I have alot on the plate as is. ...That said, I may consider a Rain check if things on my end turn out exceptionally well. ^_^ Also: Here's a taste of what a Sonic RPG entails. ...It was made with RPG Maker 2003, so imagine what VX Ace can do with it.

Don't worry about it. Just take your time with it. Even with this version of RPG maker I'm sure everyone understands that the process may take quite some time. Fun fact that I too am working on an Archie project. Ironically enough, it happens to be on the opposite side of the comics, the beginning side before space. ^_^

Ok, in that case, I know just the thing. Look up and try to get something called "RPG Maker VX Ace" ...Well, actually, I would think any PC RPG Maker would do, but that's apparently the latest one. The only problem you might have are the sprites. Not a lot of Archie comic characters were made into Sprites. Not alot of them that were made to sprites are made in as much quality as the Advance sprites. As for the 3-D models, ...I'm not going to make any promises mate, but I think I know somebody who could do it. http://themysticalforestzone.com/Sprite_section.htm Here, This place has most of the sprites you may need. Look up Other for the Archie characters. But again, not all of them may be there. I know Geoffrey isn't.

...Let me ask one thing Mr. PK. Is this a Sprite RPG, like the early Final Fantasy games, Or are you going for the actual 3-D model RPGs?

Hmm...Well, combining them seems like a good idea for you personally. It solves the issue of worrying about two RPs for the price of one. My only concern with it is the fact that the switch from the continuation to the space RP will be a pretty drastic one. Though the fact that OCs are allowed certainly works for me either way. ^_^ If you can find a way to make that drastic switch, Skye, then by all means, make the two RPs do the fusion-dance. But otherwise, I recommend keeping them separate.

I can understand that, but I'm afraid for all but the Megaman/crossover arc, that's not possible. Even as it stands with 160, you still will need to use Pender's creations for the Enerjak Arc, not to mention the Dark Egg Legion. Pender's creations are unavoidable, so you might as well bite the bullet and start at 130. Besides, only a pathetically paranoid man would strike out at a NON-PROFIT FAN GAME that just so happens to have work put into it. If Capcom can let fan games of Megaman get away, fan-games that are just as good a quality as the NES library of the Original series, if not a little more I might add, I don't think Penders will do any better. ^_^
