OOC - Part 10

So, here's the newest OOC and another 1000 posts to fill up.

I apologize for my extended absence from the forums thus far.  I'm afraid real life hasn't quite been going my way in terms of the job search.  It makes it difficult to focus on writing when I keep opening all my tabs and getting nothing in terms of inspiration for what to post.  But that's really no good excuse.  I realize the game has quite lagged down over the last month especially, in no small part due to the holidays.

That said, I would like to get things back on track.  But after such a lengthy hiatus thus far, I feel that would require a bit of a jumpstart and rebuilding to how things are in the story.  Not a reboot, no.  But the game needs some pruning and rethinking of how to approach certain story elements since we've lost some folk and gained others, particularly in regards to the Adventure Zones.

Re: OOC - Part 10

Well you haven't lost me n//n
I'll help anyway I can, of course. I know how bad lack of inspiration sucks, and stress from job hunting doesn't help *hugs*

I'm just glad to see this game hasn't given up the ghost, I'd miss it n.n;

Re: OOC - Part 10

I am definitely looking forward to seeing this game hopping again!

I, honestly, would be for a reboot as an option. A fresh slate might be ideal in some aspects, especially if we have to replace players of canon characters. We could also do a half reboot, keeping some aspects and resetting others.

Re: OOC - Part 10

A reboot of some sort and some fresh stuff would probably go a long way for this game, I'll agree.

No matter what, I'd like to give up Vinyl. I don't think I can really do enough to give her justice at this point and time constraints is a thing I have to fight with. If I stay, I'd rather stay as Angel than Vinyl.

Re: OOC - Part 10

A partial reboot would be the best option, overall.  Scuttling some of the Adventure Zones, putting those who want to be back in Ponyville back home again, and the like.  Perhaps a minor time skip as well to help incorporate new information brought on by Season 4, such as the loss of the Elements of Harmony.

For the moment, let's do both a role call and a vote.  Please announce yourselves and if you vote Yay or Nay on a soft reboot.  Those of you who have already done so don't need to repeat.

Re: OOC - Part 10

I'm going to say "Yea" for my attendance and vote for the soft reboot as well.

Both for Shai Ni and Berry Punch.

Re: OOC - Part 10

Yea to soft reboot, I'd like to redo some stuff with Word, I feel I was a bit over-eager… or something… with my earliest stuff here, plus I have no idea if Pansy is still around, so I dunno how much of Words stuff will be Ret-Gone'd

Wordie, Bumblebee and Octavia are go, Bravado I don't know about since that AZ is kinda deader than dead
