Hey, I take my sweet ass time, but I DO get around to posting...

Not enough for the RP to be consistently alive (for example, more posting happens in GiD on one day than it does for the rest of the week. That does not seem like a healthy RPG).

If you consider to change the setting for the RP I suggest that you consider what you wish to achieve by that. How will it be better? Do you have something particular in mind? How will the change affect the developement of the story compared to if you didn't?

As for the lack of activity in Soul Society, I got some IRL buisness to attend to.

As it is, the plot is predictable, boring and not much is actually happening. I believe that could be solved by changing the plot to a time when there are a lot more possibilities for plot twists, change and stuff.
Also, by making it after Aizen's downfall, it'd open the door to a lot of new possible antagonists and stuff.

And yes, I do have some stuff floating around in my head.

I am not asking you to drop everything and post in my RP, either, but I'm just saying that the only people in the Soul Society except for me have more important business to attend to, or are being held back by something/someone.

All of this subplot I finally start working on, & suddenly you're like, "Meh, fuck it all"?

Neo, you have to admit that it's really going no where and has a very dim future.

It was going somewhere! I made a subplot!

Which involved only Lilith, Senthose and possibly the Visoreds. I'm almost certainly redoing this now.

"Only"? Also, you're forgetting Orihime & their group.

I was a one-man plot engine!

Orihime and the others were *SPOIL- ah, fuck it* going to the Soul Society.

No more question, it's changing.

Watch me not join.

Watch me leave BO.

Watch no one give a damn.

Neo raged his tits off last time I tried to leave BO.

Then my RP will be down a derp, but yours will be dead.

I'd say it's win-win.

Perhaps, but how long do you think it would take before stuff were to happen if you changed the setting? It takes a bit of time to set the gameboard and put the pieces in place, so to speak. I'm plainly assuming some of us got plots we wish to play out and to do that we need to arrange our characters - perhaps others as well - so they get in position before we can set it in motion. Of course, it may be subplots, but still. You get my point?

Loki does not believe in the concept of exposition.

It won't take long for stuff to happen in the revised version, and there won't be as many different plots for different people- it'll be more like BRP in the sense that every character will be brought into the main plot fairly quickly and stuck in somewhere.
The main problem with GiD, I thought, was that there were too many factions split up from each other and not destined to meet for a while, and that while was even longer because nothing at all happened in the Soul Society.

And Neo, why're you being a twat about this?

You do realize that BRP had 20 pages of exposition off-site, don't you? And it wouldn't have been able to be carried over had I not modified the story to suit the needs.

Because I had plans, damn it!

There will be exposition, Neo.

And your plans may still go ahead, if you can get them to work.

No. You're retarded.

Whatever. You should join it, when I'm done remaking.

Blatant lie.

I meant personal plots. I got plots for my character, not just the plain 'go to the Academy, graduate, work one's way to the top'. I'm fairly certain Neo and Scrip got plots as well.

Oh yeah, there ought to be more room for a personal plots in the revised one. It'd be a lot more widespread than just Soul Society - KKT - Hueco Mundo and you'll have a lot more room to decide what you were going to do.

I can already tell this won't work.

Sure is optimistic in here.
