[OOC can i remind everyone this fight will be Enki only we raeched this agreement to end the RP and bury it forever for various reasons, NO none Enki will fight against the Dermorians unless they actually win in which case everyone is welcome to kill them off for good, also i think ojaroad2 would be a perfect spot for this event but we will all reach that decision.]
really? well how about this?
[ OOC ]
hey guy's,
a few people for various reasons want an end to this rp, this is an invitation for anyone who wants to be involved in it's demise, it seems only proper that the setting for a final battle should be the home of the oppressed enkidukai...Ojaveda, even though the focus race for the battle is enki because it's basically thier fight for freedom with the ammount of mixed marriages and friendships anyone can lend thier support. it might help in bringing a few guilds closer together in a common interest.it's a suberb chance to have some good rp so if you wish to give a little support please come along, the meeting will be held on Sunday 21st at 20.00 GMT in Oja. You can reply here or contact me, Nefert, Alliva or Edicho in game for more details. we are trying to raise an army of enki for this.
;D
[all ooc]
@Gharan
a) not your rp
b) since its not your rp YOU HAVE NO POWER!
c) im married to a FENKI... (female enki.) :P
d) make sure to know what your posting to.. and what is going on.. if unsure.. REREAD quote from Blayze
-
[OOC yes, I was fairly confused by all this as well, considering I'd already talked to Alliva and seemed to have found a spot on their side]
You're welcome to be "paid" or "put under a spell" to fight for us but I can't see anyone taking that offer up. Grin
[OOC If I had the money to train my alt up I'd do it, but don't have the time to]

@ bartholin
you continue to make yourself apear dumb, ingame and out ;D
why dont you ask vigel *cough* i mean gharin who started the rp.....
shhhhh..... i was one of the ones who started with him.......
If anyone on this forums has the power to make up rules, its gharin..
silly diaboli

How could one ICly restrict the fight to just enkis? Particularly if these non-enkis families are being threatened. It would be hard enough to stop them in normal circumstances but when the non-enkis have a chance to stand next to their friends and people that are in the same situation as them you think that you can stop them? It would be impossible, so unless you want the RP to seem unrealistic and totally staged I suggest you let it flow from here to the end. Ie. don't put up OOC walls blocking people that want to get involved.
-
Sorry but that was what was agreed and if you don't like it tough, Don't you think we have enough people to fight.
Bartholin: I think you will find it is my RP and i've spent hours working on it.
EDIT: Who do you think called for an end to the RP?
-
I just don't see how it can be ICly possible. Its you that comes off worse from it, not me, so no need for the if you don't like it tough. I'm trying to help you make it more plausible.
-
Okay Parallo and i appreciate that but the fact it's already 6 vs 100 means that we can't allow anyone else to fight and this will be RPed on the night itself and i'm currently planning that. This was the only way to agree OOC a quick way to end a RP i'm frankly sick of taking part in.
-
Well you RPed yourself into having to fight everyone so i dont see why you should get to pick and choose who you fight. If you want the RP to end you can say the Dermorains moved on to find lands more accepting of their views.
-
Narure this will be RPed and it's pretty simple to do, Simply the Enki want to fight alone and ask others to stay out of it, Problem solved.
-
Thats godmodding.
-
What exactly is godmodding, The Enki wanting to fight for there race alone as a race?
Well i wanted to keep it as small as possible and not promote a huge PvP war but screw it.
Anyone is willing to fight and it will be a HUGE war.
-
Making the Enkis want to fight alone. That may be quite OOC for a lot of them.
-
Okay well i can agree on your point, I'm still learning RP wise and will make mistakes, I just thought Enki would want the pride of knowing they defeated the enemy alone without calling on the town for help, Seems a good end to a RP don't you think?
-
Seems good but a little too scripted for my liking. To each their own though. Don't get me wrong though. I appreciate all efforts at RP. I just feel its my obligation to bring to light the certain aspects wich seem improbable. At least now if you do another in the future you may have learned (Not to be taking as condesending in the slightest.)
I'll leave you with a :)
-
The army, or six people? Just pointing out.. :}
Heh good point Karyuu
Okay i'm honestly not bothered how this ends i just want it to end so feel free to have the war anyway you want, The Dermorians will meet there demise no matter how it is fought.
-
Heheh, went in to edit my post to add something and ended up deleting it. Glad it was mine! :P
I'm wondering why the sudden turn of events - did the Enkidukai finally realize the threat, decided they had enough, or just grew tired? My character never ran into the slavers directly (and knowingly), but she would attempt to start a fight from the beginning.
-
It was an OOC decision to bring it to an end Karyuu, There was some people who hated the RP to start with and some who loved it and wished it to keep going, I personally think such RP has no long term place and i think pride for the Enki when they win is a good end so my guild and a few Enki OOC agreed on an end and this was what was planned.
And the obvious IC reasons ;)
-
Well narure was war mongering since he met them, just lack of organization on the part of the enkis realy me thinks.
-
OOC I'd just like to apologeise to anyone who was actually offended by this RP it was never intended at any point when we came up with the idea.
-
Don't apologise to people being offended by fictional people being fictional mistreated by another fictional people. Laugh at them.
-
No Parallo I had one or two people send /tells saying i should be banned for my RP.In my opinion it's only RP but i'm willing to take it on the chin and even apologeise.
-
Seriously? Makes you wonder what ever happened to rational thinking.
-
If there was a rape RP in public you would probably be offended. Some people may find slavery the same.
-
Thats an extreme though. Some people may be offended by people sticking swords in each other. Should people be banned for that?
-
Just a note...
The dwarven war was fought almost entirely with male dwarves. It was the agreement before the war.
Easton
-
Hard to include the female dwarves when there are so few. :P
-
I think it would be a better war if the Enki fight for themselves but as pointed out that would be kind of OOC so it looks like it will be a Dermorian slaughter not a war.
-
[ok gharin as i said to you before you needed more ppl and we have heard of the slavers enslaveing more than enki. you shot down my idea of how to get it to smaller numbers stateing you wanted a war well ok but restricting it to enki again fair enough. but you see what happend with the dwarves they beat but still slavers come. this war should set an example for everyone and send a defenate msg to all that slaverly will not be tolerated by any race.]
-
[We did enslave more than Enki at the start but it was for less than a day and was quickly changed, you may have everyone fight for you if you wish Alliva but Enki pride for winning by themselves seems alot more suitable, I'll leave it up to your side.]
-
Just to point out Yliakum is a melting pot of all races. The races in Yliakum are like one race in RL. The enkis having pride and fighting for it is the same as all the people that have glasses fighting those that don't for their pride.
-
The enkis having pride and fighting for it is the same as all the people that have glasses fighting those that don't for their pride.
I must admit you have a point...

@ bartholin
you continue to make yourself apear dumb, ingame and out ;D
why dont you ask vigel *cough* i mean gharin who started the rp.....
shhhhh..... i was one of the ones who started with him.......
If anyone on this forums has the power to make up rules, its gharin..
silly diaboli
insultive much?
a) the poster of the warin wasnt you OR him.. so umm :detective:
b) maybe you alls hould have thought out the entire rp BEFORE you posted the ending.. THAT way.. NOBODY could argue who has the power to end it.
c) ^ if you did that.. no room for insults..
d) your a *&^( in and out of game.. ;D

I must admit you have a point...
since Gharan started it.. ??? does this mean that any are open to join then? it would make sence if a small group decided (in rl) to idk.. kill some guy in a puplic square.. that a group would take them out :) so why not a small group of slavers get killed off by a far larger army of those that fight for family or.. dare i say it with such players as Coneitic values? or even.. justic? and before this topic gets turned into a flame match... v

b) maybe you alls hould have thought out the entire rp BEFORE you posted the ending.. THAT way.. NOBODY could argue who has the power to end it.
And that would be the worst kind of RP IMO, it tends to end up being a pre-scripted, self-centred, egotistical RP when someone starts it with an entire plan in mind, if that was the case then Gharin would win (although presumably that would mean the RP continues?)
[Off Topic]
I am just curious why you would brag in your sig about that PCs specs ???

What? ;D
This war was agreed in a group in-game and no none Enki are to fight the battle, OK?
If you all want to fight then we would see the sheer number and escape and return at later date,wouldn't you rather bury it?
-
Methinks the DL's will be horribly outnumbered regardless. Have you thought instead of working with a wave system? By this I mean they would send 6 against your 6 until you are all dead. IC it would be explained simply by the fact that the attackers didn't want to win dishonarbly or something of the sort. Also, I thought your slaves were going to fight for you as well... certainly you could take a few more of them to increase your numbers by a bit.
-
Even with slaves we would be lucky for 10, we have hired help but I ain't saying who ;) and that ain't many, we will be outnumbered by just Enki alone even with all that i've just mentioned and we don't mind as long as it isn't insane like 10 vs 60, could you imagine the lag and the sheer stupidity of the thing to start with,this is about the rp leading up to our demise by the enki not the war itself, who craes if you dont get to fight one fight, i mean seriously?....
-
why is it lately every time someone post an rp, he same people that pick at it and give "constructive critisism" [bullsh** word], are the same ones that wonder into other peoples rp, and barely ever starts their own. maybe before you all have little problems with someone elses rp, you should have your own worked and, and a certain part that explains how you did things different. how about we share that before we critique someones rp. im proud of gharan =)
-
There is nothing wrong with critiquing roleplay. If you don't want that, don't post it and don't waste anyone's time. Go play in your own circles and hand out private invitations. Normally people should be happy to have others point out mistakes or inconsistencies, offer suggestions, or ask questions. That's where improvement comes from - outside sources. So don't be so hasty with such posts, Coneitic. We're here not only to have fun with one another, but to learn from one another and listen to each other's opinions. That's certainly what the forum is for. If anyone isn't interested in that, please stay in-game.
The blunt quality of this post is due to listening to George Carlin for the past half hour.
-
got halfway through typing an almost identical response before I noticed yours Karyuu...
-
Peoples questions have been valid Coneitic and i've listened to them I think all of this would be best left in-game at the meeting time Blayze has arranged.An RP IC discussion might be more interesting than clogging a forum with it.
*edit*
I'm going to make myself look completely stupid here and admit that me preaching JUST Enki against us isnt very RP at all so accept my apology and ANYONE feel free to get involved :)

didnt mean word for word.. just the general stuff, so that we know whats goin on if we aint ingame for 24/7 :)
and i aint braggin bout my specs.. im just posting them so i dont have to waste time hunting them down ;D
-
this rp is Gharans idea so its only right that he calls the shots, obviously there are some wires crossed here, personally I think that the final battle should be the slavers against enki, this doesn't mean that other races can't input by rp'ing thier support, theres not enough slavers compared to everyone else, I think the slavers are aware of thier inevitable defeat, so if the enki's are beaten then theres nothing stopping you or anyone else reaping vengeance, either way the slaver rp will be over, the reason for the original post was to try to get people interested in taking part thats the whole idea of this forum after all, initially it was to get an idea of the ammount of people interested then we can change things around so people can get the most out of it, if we can tie things up here with peoples suggestions then we can make sure it's organised properly.

Er, are you saying everyone is killing you now, or that RP wise it doesn't make sense but it has to be done for the sake of the logisitics of it. I just want to know, because I have Sunday off with my day job for the first time in ages, and plan to sleep well into the time this battle is planned for unless I'm involved :P
hrmph, just out of curiosity, what are the numbers looking like atm? If it's going to be a complete and total slaughter I probably won't bother to wake up anyways :sleeping:
-
Greetings everybody.
I think we need to update this post as to what excactly is going on, i.e. Can anyone join in, How long it is going on for etc.
Nefert stretches her claws
-
Okay, meeting has brought forward a day to the saturday, blayze will post on this later today.
By the sheer numbers i thought limitting it would be better but it's kinda ooc so it's up to your characters whether you take part. There are 1 or 2 who will not be allowed to fight for various reasons.
It will last one day and will be fought somewere near Ojaveda.
With this RP nearing it's end we ask people to get involved and more importantly have fun doing so, that's why we started it.
John80sk: It was a slaughter with just Enki fighting now it's a massacre. ::|
-
personally I think that the final battle should be the slavers against enki, this doesn't mean that other races can't input by rp'ing thier support.
Does this mean that if one showed up and saw people fighting for beliefs which one shared they should go OOC and pretend they didn't see it for the sake of a more convienent battle? I know there are characters that would either become enthralled by the group mentality of the encounter or just fight for what they believed. These people would be OOC by not joining in. Setting these unrealistic OOC boundaries does not help the quality of the RP. A 'cool' dramatic face off between the two sides may be more convienent for both sides but its unrealistic and highly improbable.
im proud of gharan =)
I am too. With critique he may become better at it and then we all have more reason to be proud of him. I just don't like to pad up my words to save from the blow as it distracts from the content. I like pointing out when something is not right. I am in no way trying to be a [insert dirty word] about it. You'll be grateful when you take part in the next event by Gharan which through this will quite probably be better.
-
[As Blayze stated the meeting to form a guild to hunt down the DL will be now Saturday instead of Sunday, That gives them time to organise, Also as stated anyone joining the Enki side either post here or preferably RP it in-game.]
-
???
just had 2 players say you moved the rp to today.. but i proved them wrong by the forums.. and since niether of the rp startes were online.. ANYWAY..
is the battle still the 21st and the metting today.. or was the battle infact moved to today.. OR.. was the battle moved to the 20th? hope its not the 20th.. thats the day of my raffle event.. WHICH was started before the end of the salver rp began :) 21st would be best as it suits the raffle as well :) a big day of party before a hugfe battle that some may not live after? ;D just a suggestion..
-
Meetings next saturday and the battle is sunday.
*edit*
War is cancelled
[Split from RP thread and merged here. --Karyuu]
-
Canceled..? What do you mean? (http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/8828/colonesseq6.gif)
-
:o
-
Well.. there are certain people in this who would have loved to kill us and free a slave but if they died just simply refused to be one, we had enough against us without people like that so I didn't want them in the rp neither did my guild. We had a meeting set for next saturday for the Enki to discuss what they would do and probably make a guild. Alliva took it upon himself to go round shouting the meeting was today not next week, he also states they will either group or just form alliances. group wont work for such a battle and there will be people in the alliances who are out the RP for the reason i mentioned, I assumed after talking to blayze a guild would be formed and it's the only way i see this working. After discussion with my guild we believe cancelling it until we know where we stand is the best idea unless anyone has any better ideas?
-
This was posted on Fri. the 12th, one would think that would mean the next Saturday in sequence, apparently not. :oops:
Perhaps in the future you should post the date as well as the day of the week so as not to cause confusion.
Just a thought...
[As Blayze stated the meeting to form a guild to hunt down the DL will be now Saturday instead of Sunday, That gives them time to organise, Also as stated anyone joining the Enki side either post here or preferably RP it in-game.]
-
Yes I admit we did make a mistake there but I think Blayze stated the date in his post i'll have to check, but grouping to war is pointless and that's what Alliva is calling for, either that or alliances but certain people can't fight which means all that is left is to form a guild which may I add was the whole point of the meeting in the first place, If you can't leave your guild for any reason then i'm sorry but you will not be able to fight for the obvious reason that its guild vs guild.
Can I also add it was decided on a one day thing to seem more real rather than a week long war that peope die 20 times in, and so people can quickly be re-guilded afterward.
*edit*
Okay having spoke to Blayze, who btw will head the guild we came to an arrangement for a war that will be one day only. Blayze already called a meeting in an attempt to end the Dermorians and there has been a little confusion so just to clarify the meeting is on Saturday the 20th at 22PM GMT. He will form all those willing into a guild and will organise them. The war will take place on Sunday the 21st at 20PM GMT
The rules as agreed by both leaders are as follows:
The battle will take place in Ojaveda in akkaido east.
Any weapons are allowed
Healing potions are allowed
Magic is allowed
No other form of potions will be used or stat raising weapons.
This battle will be fought in 3 fights and this what was agreed.
The first will be a full fight basically everyone.
The second will be one on one until one guild is left standing.
If after two rounds one guild has won both they win if not it goes to a finale.
The finale if needed will be 3 on 3
I hope anyone taking part is happy with the rules we have set we felt they needed to be done and posted to avoid anymore confusion.
Anyone taking part good luck and HAVE FUN!!
Sorry for any confusement on dates.
-
I like it sounds good.
Glad it's only one day too.
That way I can make sure I am there.
-
No other form of potions will be used or stat raising weapons.
i asked you in game.. but i think i needs to be metioned here..
HOW can your prevent someone from using such items.. unless you plan on asking a gm to check players before,during, and after.. true its spose to be ic rules.. but its also ooc rules.. WHICH some.. MIGHT not wish to follow.. as it would be very much ic for the DL to use pots and boosters to give them the edge.. who knows :)
also.. Gharan as agreed to combining our 2 events.. since they can easly be molded into 1 event :) my event is the day before 20th.. check my sig for the link to the thread. :)
-
Because of work commitments 22.00 GMT would be better for me on saturday 20th
-
[Sunday will be my last day in-game, I'd just like to say i've had lots of fun and leave PS with a love RP that i didn't have when i arrived :)]
-
(Gharan, why are you leaving us? Although I do not really know you, I am saddened by this news. I do know that you get invovled with us all and help us in our IG events. What will we do without you? Maybe I am missing something here)
-
[Sunday will be my last day in-game, I'd just like to say i've had lots of fun and leave PS with a love RP that i didn't have when i arrived :)]
and we should believe that :p, you've said it before and yet you're still here :), soon I'll meet someone who wants to battle me, we're standing still then all of a sudden I'm dead and you're in front of me xP.
as for getting more people, you could have posted it here, rules and stuff. But not make it happen in front of harnquist >.<. make it take place in the backalleys and ask people to restrict the knowledge IC'ly so you don't know them before you're there, only OOC.
In these alleys, recruit people, forcerecruit people and you should get quite an army in the end.

Gharan,
I for one will be sorry to see some as yourself leave. Although we have never met in-game I for one would truly love to see your future accomplishments and roleplays. You still have so much to offer in terms of role-play and the community and I would truely like to develop something with you. :flowers:
Go on... Be an inspiration to others. :sorcerer:
Dont make the same mistake I did and throw away everything you have before you.
I regret my choice and hastey words more than I can express... but here I am 6 months down the line, back for more and oh am I charged up! :devil:
Your place is here with us... it is your destiny :detective:
-
Yeah i'm staying plus me and a few friends just founded a neutral guild called Travellers Path so i'm not going anywere, just have less time to play :(
-
Glad to hear your staying Gharan, Life in Yliakum would be a lot less interesting without my regular walk out of DR whispering bad language under my breath after running in to you in the Hydlaa, nice one.
-
err so did the meeting happen? was i just in the wrong place, wrong time? (i was there around 20:05)
-
Blayze called the meeting but wasnt online, no-one took over the meeting so it didn't go ahead.

Blayze called the meeting but wasnt online, no-one took over the meeting so it didn't go ahead.
I wondered too and was waiting and searching with a few of my guild friends for buddies awakened from sleep :) But either we where not successful or nothing happened.
[OOC:
I understood this: Yesterday at 22:00 GMT we wanted to held a final meeting for the upcomming battle today at 20:00 GMT. Did I miss something?
:OOC]
-
me=confused, I doubt I'll be able to make the final battle with work and all though, so oh well
But glad to hear you're going to stick around Gharin.

@ gharin
DONT GO NUETRAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you know where the fun lies gharin...... stop hatin =)
-
I'm an Enki, i've met the slavers i can'T stand that... i know about the war and i want to know how to join it?
(i know i have to quit my guild to join an other... i coulnd be there at the meeting... wrong time for me and out of game obligations...)
Thanks for helping me..
-
(Hi.. posted the same in other topic.. maybe i can have more answer here...)
I am a proud and free enki. I've cross the path of slavers but i've been lucky to have friends to calm me and avoid the fight this time. But i can't stand it anymore. I have friends and family to protect. Even iff i'm still not a great warrior, can't stay just look at it. Can I have more infos about all this and how I can join the fight?
(OOC i know about leaving my guild, joining another (wich one?), the fight in Ojaveda but almost nothing more... please help me??)

I suggest you speak to Blayze or Alliva I can't really help you I only know what's happening on my side.
The guild is H okyba da Ojaveda, as far as I know.
