Question is, will it be longer than Mimsy's usual stuff? xD

Anyway, now I feel kind of bad for having the first post out... Not that I think I'd do it differently...

No I doubt I could manage anywhere close to Mimsy's word count. just longer than my stuff usually is. I'm actually bit stuck at the moment. I know how I want the fight to go, i just can't figure out a good way to get it there
Its up, just under 1200. so the longest thing I've written so far.

Moo. :gurt:

One cow was not enough? Fine by me. :lol:

By the way people. Should we end our posts at the teleport back? If so I'll add a couple more paragraphs to mine just to wrap up the lake stuff.

Don't forget the cows might still be alive (if anyone wants to use one of them later on)

The cows strike once more! Nice fight, Shane. That was a pretty cool magic duel. Just, uh... Could you possibly include paragraph breaks next time? It gets a little bothersome to read when the text is always jammed together so closely.


Oh, and you can probably end your post with a teleport if you want, but I wasn't planned on it. I was actually going to start moving out of my own accord and make my way back to the battlefield, running into a few other characters that way. We could just say Shane was warped since he was so far away...

Caught up. Nice posts. Althought the doppelganger fights are kinda difficult to imagine. I think I'll make mine tonight. I'm going to gym now. See'ya later.

Progress report on the epic superpost of doom, everyone! Turns out, it might just be even longer than I expected it to be. I was hoping I'd be able to wrap up the most ridiculously over the top battle since DBZ in 15 pages worth of material, but now I'm estimating at least ten pages more than that, if not more, as I've already reached that point and still have yet to write the final two phases of the battle - I.E., the largest portion of the post. In conclusion, the word count is already over 9000 and swiftly rising, I have more images I'm including than I know what to do with, I'm trying to come up with fitting BGMs for each new section as I'm forced to split it off into a full-length scene of its own, and the ending is going to be completely ridiculous.

Highlights of the post include random, ridiculous trolling, and a little something I like to call "Marisa KIRAsame," so be prepared for a post the size of several chapters in your average novel, and brace yourselves for epic.

Apologies in advance for how huge this is going to be. XD

Why do I get the feeling that Mimsy's will be the last post on this turn? Even after Kariese said she'd need time to write because of real life? It's already at 9k words? Oh well...

*Paps* I's otay... hopefully we won't all be crushed by the weight of his post. No promises, though.

It won't be the last post because I will be posting after it. I was going to make my ending scene reference the final bits of his battle, AKA, they are so fcking insane that I can see them from whee I am after I win.

Ok, I have a few minor (or not) plot related stuff to discuss with Xana. While I try to remember what that was, I want to know what could be a good name for this Rp. There was one, but we don't use it, so I forgot.

No, that's Mimsy's true name.

Nah. The post is more along the lines of: Dramatic Awesomeness By Analysis moment, then brief epic fight, then a troll-roll of ridiculous proportions, brief epic moment, then about three pages worth of gambiting and counter-gambiting. Then epic, and then the HSQ just goes through the roof and everything in the world explodes.

Anyway, time to get back to writing the final, ridiculous dogfight, so if you'll excuse me...

Well, I guess it'll be nameless for now. On another topic, what do you think of the RP so far? Is it going too fast or too slow? (I mean, the one-post plot development)

Who's writing now? I was going to, but I got worried with the naNoWriMo and I wasn't feeling very good (in relation to my health) but I'm okay now. I don't knwo if I'll write tomorrow my post, because I'll be starting the NaNoWriMo.

I wish I could work on NaNoWriMo. Real life has rotten timing sometimes.

Try it Kariese. If you can't make it you lose nothing. And it'll be fun. ^^
