[Moero]

Since we don't have this available on Taymation anymore, and it was actually pretty useful.

I have a question!

I remember that basically, in this pirate arc, Moero joins late and the brainwashing of the game doesn't affect her . . . Anyone remember the reasoning behind this? (The brainwashing, not the joining late) Ayame? You were my accomplice in this, do you remember?

[Rev]

*shrugs* I don't even remember my deal in this whole thing. I hope no one minds if I threw a curve ball in my post. It seemed like fun.

[Cat-Girl Ayame]

If I recall correctly what was GOING to happen is that we were all going to go in together except you (Moero) and since the program wasn't what it was supposed to be, we were all brainwashed into thinking it was real. But since you're the only real pirate among us, you were going to rescue us all in a brilliant display of badass piratry. Of course, I think Tay was supposed to be a ninja too, so yeah. But Terd, Me, Sparky, Lone, and Khepri are all like, under the influence of the game, so we think it's all real.

[Moero]

Psh, yeah, you would think that someone on this crew would end up a ninja.

We have three characters vying for the "most Japanese" position, and Moero's the only one that's left.

So the game doesn't affect Moero because she's the most piratey in real life? Oh man. I have got to come up with a better excuse than that.

There is really only one choice here: Ninja by birth, pirate by choice.

[Tay Mation]

Well Ayame pointed something out to me, and I think she was right. Part of the problem the RP started dying was we began to plan to much and kept worrying about screwing up each others posts. So let us bring back the days where we would say, ok, this is is the idea of what will happen. or even off the seat of our pants.

As for this arc, we knew we were going to have a pirate adventure, and everyone was going to have their memory erased. so there is a brief synopsis's of this arc.. I may still become a ninja in it, i don't know. it just all depends on where we take it. (I love that rev added the fact that he can't be seen by anyone. )

[Moero]

That is a pretty good point, Tay. I'd also like to add that the intern trials were probably also a factor, spreading us too thin (thrown in with a small amount of i-told-you-so).

So back to the old-fashioned, just-for-fun, make-it-up-as-we-go-along roleplaying!

[Moero]

Post, people, post! I don't want to join the vacation for a while still.

If I had a tv and cable, I would seriously watch nothing but Future Weapons. www.fastclips.com/videos/16R4g9KahR98 I saw this episode and that's when Moero fell in love with the PSD.

Meanwhile, I'm going to read the recent archives because I really have no idea what happened in the last 20 or so pages.

[Tay Mation]

I'll be posting today after work.

[Moero]

I ended up reading the last 40 pages of the Break Room, and am I ever glad I did. Because now I know wtf is going on.

[Tay Mation]

Good good, I decided to post at work.. though I'm not supposed to be on the internet.. XO

[Moero]

Yeah Tay, I do that all the time. No seriously, ALL the TIME. Like right now!

I have a pretty solid, and simple, theory as to why Tay, Rev, and eventually Moero aren't affected by the brain erasing. As for why only Tay can see Rev, I don't have anything on that yet, and I plan on letting the rp progress a little more before Moero joins the hologame, so that I'll have more info to base my decision on whether or not Moero can see Rev. I guess it also depends on whether Moero goes through the door or not to get into the game, because if she doesn't, she would end up a ghost like Rev.

Hey that would be kinda fun, Rev and Moero, these invisible entities who are trying to instruct Tay to get the game to end . . .

[Tay Mation]

haha, that would be awesome! (the ghost Moero and Rev)

the reason Tay still ha his memory is since he wasn't in the room while the game was loaded he is slowly losing his memory, rather then have it all gone at once. Since his memory is all ready beginning to fade he doesn't remember the disc being a memory eraser disc. and since he knows it is a game, he can see things that aren't part of the game. the rest of the crew thinks the game is all real, so they can't except something that isn't integrated into the game. like Rev. So As long as Rev keeps reminding Tay of the outside world, (just by being around Tay has some awareness of the out side world... for now) he won't lose his memory.

[Cat-Girl Ayame]

And if Tay loses his memory completely Moei and I will have another competitor for "pirate queen"...or did he grow out of that phase?

(Yes, I've been reading the backlog as well )

Yeah, that's what I was thinking; the disk erased the memories of the people who were in the room while the game was being loaded. Nice to know we're on the level!
