>>26854747
You care in the abstract? Or do you follow those specific ones? It'd be nice to get into the mind of our resident Party Horse and find out what quests she ACTUALLY cares for.
>>26854741Guess what?
>>26851963
I was taking a nap when this was requested.
Does she have any specific colours? She doesn't have any fanart on pineapple, and the first post doesn't specify anything that I saw.
>>26854761
Fuck.
>>26854790If you really care to know, I read pretty much everything, but time constraints keep me from playing everything I read. I try to make the less popular quests a priority when I have a chance to actually post, since I don't want them to die.

Well, shit. Friend came over unexpectedly, so I was late, and TES died.
Sorry about that.
I'm starting a new job tomorrow, so I can't start up a new thread tonight.
When I am able to start a new one, do you guys want another TES thread, or should I start my sci-fi quest?I'd add Vamp to the poll too, but I think Vamp is in the middle of something. Rather let him finish that before I come back.

>>26855969
>>26855885
You can feel free to add vamp to your poll if you want. The thing that's going on shouldn't last too long.
Or at least, It shouldn't be more than a couple more post long I think. It should be finished up, during the weekend probably.
So, as far as character creation, how do players usually feel about a limited sort? Really, the only thing I'd be cemented on for the character (for story reasons) would be the species; otherwise, I can roll with everything else. Would that limitation be a big bother?
>>26856172
You can even make the whoke MC if you want. Character creation isn't a necessity.
>>26856172
>So, as far as character creation, how do players usually feel about a limited sort?
Yes.
>>26856172
That's fine. I like having a lot of character creation options, but species is only one thing.
>Sloth actually delivering on lewd
>>26856172
Funny enough, I had a similar question, but mine revolved around a pre-estabished personality trait instead of a species.
>>26856347
That's a great thing. If you provide a character, the players will often play it as long as it's not pointless/extreme.

What do you guys think of that experimental CYOA? It seems pretty cool to me.
>>26860213
I don't like how two groups of players are pit against each other.
There's also the problem of meta knowledge between characters and the QM dragging it along. It's an okay idea, but doesn't work as a CYOA.
>>26860041
>>26860213
I found objections to it all over, but most of them are specific to my personal taste. I don't like pitting players against each other, I don't like the idea of players sabotaging each other by suggesting stupid ideas or not trying to improve other player's ideas that could use tweaking, and I don't like the idea of a quest that's main goal is "kill stuff".
Again, those are mostly all personal opinions. I'm sure there are a contingent of cyoa players who will love it. I have absolutely no interest in it myself, though.
>>26860213
Bath just worries me in general.
>>26860429
All of these.
>>26860527
Tell me, what do you find troubling about me?
>>26860579
I feel like at any minute your hidden core of edginess will break free and kill us all. What darkness lurks inside you, Bath?
>>26860618
You're just saying that because of the abandoned lab survival horror quest, the drug addicted criminal quest, and the murder everyone quest.
>>26860618Do you believe in magic...
>>26860618
I thought you were going to mention his combat thing and how he apparently is trying to be the new Hijacker.
>>26860705
This is going to be the next hijacker
>>26860618
I wouldn't worry too much, I mean I don't have magic power or major influence over others. Besides, I have hardon for action than anything else.
>>26860705
>Being the new Hijacker.
I'm too disorganized and distractible to even think about doing that.
Also, by the way, I'm going to keep quiet with my personal thoughts on the status and inner workings of "Murder Quest" until it has run it's course. It's not that I don't appreciate the discussion it has raised but I am running it for a reason and I don't want to ruin it.
We need more show-like quests
>>26860995
Inept, plz.
>>26860995
No, we need more show episodes and quests that are different from the show

That was pretty rude, to be honest.I agree with you, though.

>>26862083
While it was really blunt, I really want it to be over soon so we can get back to 11-54, which was supposed to start 3 days ago.
>>26862083
I called it shit because it's shit. A heavily flawed 'experiment' in which players are now squatting quietly hoping random chance or Bath's murder boner let their arbitrarily selected waifu win.
He should have killed them both on the boat, but now it's going to drag out.
>>26862296
This so much. Either that blade should have killed Fresh or the fall, fire, and glass should have killed Buttons.
>>26862215
Although I want to get back to 11-54 too this does give us a chance to figure out what we're going to do about a psychic enemy.

>Anything besides icosahedron

>>26862637
A sphere only has one face.
>>26862640
This.
>>26862637
This.
>>26862661
Depends on how you define face. 0, 1, 2, and infinity are all 'correct' answers.
>>26862730
A face is defined as a flat surface of an object. A sphere has no flat surfaces. A true sphere has no faces by definition. An approximated sphere has a large number of faces, approaching infinity as they become proportionally smaller to the sphere's overall size.

>>26863079
Well, I don't really have an idea beyond that. The thought just stemmed from a few common themes I've noticed regardinghumansin Equestria- notably, that Anon and EqG both carry a lot of negative connotations, but the idea of *a* human trying to conquer language and culture barriers in order to interact with an alien species is something that doesn't get such vehement responses. Some people even regard the idea with intrigue.
If I had to pick a genre, I guess it'd be a kind of sci-fi/fantasy hybrid, like a story of first contact with an alien society. Except, instead of super high-tech aliens and weird otherworldly creatures, it'd be magical horses and mythological creatures. There might even be a self-aware sort of humor to be found, or maybe something deeper, regarding how this totally alien world is somehow home to creatures from human mythology and even the current biosphere of Earth.
Sadly, I don't think I have the writefagging skills to do such a story justice. I feel like it could be one of our most engaging CYOA's because of how identifiable a scared human in a foreign world could be as a character, and how the bonds said human forms might mirror how the players once came to love the little pones themselves. But my writing is stiff and repetitive. All I can offer is an idea, and the hope that some brave and talented Anon might make something great out of it.
Maybe it could be you, Anon.
>>26863251
Even then, it's an idea that's been done quite a bit in fanfic and greentext. Some human makes it to equestria and has to learn the language/customs.
It's nothing new, I probably wouldn't play a CYOA based on it.
