Re: Personals (Out of Character)

After Reviewing reflection i agree you can reflect melee punches.

I think though as it is a dice action (unlike all of the auto/defense powers), I think it means you cant use reflect and attack on the same turn (unless you can do multiple actions of which i dont know a way to do that).   It might also question if you can reflect multiple attacks at the same time as you cant attack multiple attacks at the same time.

totally could power stunt multi reflection melee or ranged,  i am not sure i would allow a multi reflection melee/range or mixed physical/energy at the same time.


Just my thoughts.

My spare time, for the next few days, will be limited. Expect more sporadic posting than usual.

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Today's been pretty rough for me too, I'm going to have to skip the main thread, I'll be sure to update tomorrow.  Weekend is still probably no-go for me.  [Edit] Looks like I'm waiting on people in the main thread anyway.

It was supposed... oh nevermind, her name is Made Wong now. :)

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Waiting on Manmirror, Interface & Destiny Dame for the main thread.  Manmirror may be out though, I'm o.k. on waiting for him or doing an attack for him if the rest want to move it along.  I probably won't get to it until Monday afternoon if people post, so no real hurry, I was just hoping I could get one in today, but not since people haven't posted.

I was kind of thinking of continuing the separate solo threads, sort of like having an Avengers comic book and having comic books for the individual heroes, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor etc.  It might be more work than I can handle, but they could go at a slower pace if necessary.  Thoughts?

That works fine for me, if it makes it easier for you.

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Any one of the titles could be different. Every once in a while some young writer thinks he's more sophisticated than his peers, so we get things like:

Women Are The FutureDestiny Dame
Reflecting on HumanityManMirror

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

You can make up your own title of course.  Either are way better than X vs. Snakeman. :)

So far I guess we have:

Reflecting on Humanity
The Brilliant Blackthorne

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

I made threads as named for solo Destiny Dame, Henry Elias Blackthorn and Manmirror.  I'm not sure if karma's going to work well with that sort of simultaneously occurring action, but we'll give it a try.  Just post those threads at your own pace, and I'll do my best to post replies as frequently as you post during the week.  Start off with whatever typical 'action seeking' (patrolling the city, reading the paper, listening to the police scanner, etc.) your character is doing, or personal life drama they have if you prefer.  Typical day in a life stuff.  I'll happily take direction if you want to explore some facet of your character, or just beat up bad guys.

Thanks for the update Interface

I may be somewhat unavailable next week, not real sure.  I'll try to keep up.

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Sorry about the slow pace, several family members affected by Ian and a number of friends. Been preoccupied the last few days, happy to report that family is all safe and accounted for but sadly a couple of friends haven't checked in. One of them lives in Ft Meyer. Should be back at normal pace this week.

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Sorry I haven't gotten back with posts, I seem to have lost my notes on Quetzalcoatl and setup I had for Manmirror's thread.  I have to recreate them again and go through the thread to count up damage again, which is a pain in the ass I haven't been in the mood to do.

I promise I'll get to it soon (tm).

Edit:  I got it done, didn't take quite as long as I thought.  I got Manmirror's thread updated.  I have everything prepped for the main thread, but no more time today, I'll update tomorrow.

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Henry,

I had a cassette tape Kraftwerk in the 80's.

I'm thinking on what to do with your prompt in your thread.  Do you have any direction you want to go with that?

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

My general idea was that someone has done something naughty to the Kraftwerk folks to make them late (or not show up at all), thinking they're derailing the deal, and Henry has to stop them. Could be Russians. Could be Chinese. Could be supervillains. :)

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

Sorry, I've got GM's block again.  I love the game, but figuring out what to do with it is difficult.

I might try to use/convert a Marvel module if that doesn't sound like a bad idea, but it's work, which I've got far less tolerance for than I used back in the day before all the available distractions.

On the other side of things, I'm trying to learn javascript to make games.  I made my first game ever, mostly from a tutorial, but I went a little overboard and am excited about the possibilities.  It's Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock with some hopefully interesting results.  Might be fun for a minute or two. *shrug*

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

A nice little game, but one bug. When you choose lizard, the result doesn't change from the previous selection. Everything else seems to respond correctly. :)

Re: Personals (Out of Character)

In reply to Henry Elias Blackthorne (msg # 286):

Fixed.  Quick one, it's case sensitive and I had Lizard for the button and lizard everywhere else.  Now you can see all the lizard goodness. :)

Edit:
I mean now it is, I forgot when I posted I have to change it on the site.
