It's startling how easy of a swap that must of been.
Either way this is amusing, poor Horsey. He just wants to play with spicy peppers, is that too much to ask?
>>27462866
The worst thing that could ever happen to good quests are players
The second worst thing that could ever happen to good quests are QMs
>>27462866
Its so satisfying when players come up with completely original replies instead of picking the super obvious and generic action.
But unfortunately not every player is so creative.
>>27463397
I would try to suggest more creative things personally, but sometimes in a situation you can't really get too creative with solutions cause you wouldn't have the means of doing so in that situation.
I wish I could be creative enough to make QMs proud though.
>>27463397
If I may brag for a second, sometimes I'm that creative player, but it usually depends on whether or not you're lucky to have just the right idea popping in your head without giving it much thought and the QM writing and creating a situation where you can ascertain and gauge the parameters well enough (leaving you enough room with your decision to be creative and not leaving you lost in the dark with an impossibly huge number of choices). And on whether or not I'm not too lazy, because I don't want to be the only one to always make the good suggestions, while all the other lazy fucks just lean back and give me a "this".
>>27463397
Sometimes it just depends. Any player can have their moment of brilliance or moment of retardation.
>>27463604
Amen to that.
The DitA threads are starting to get pretty comfy.
There's not a lot of interesting stuff happening when there's nothing lewd involved, but the players have become a lot more stable, and the quest feels a bit more laid back as a result.
>>27463665
I somewhat agree, though 70% of suggestions while Jazz are "Think about griffon dick."
I want to flick tini pone
>>27463705
Yeah, stability usually comes at the cost of less creativity.

So I'm sorry about being late, I got caught up in things last night, and I'm probably going to take off early today. but I might as well get started.
Past that I'm coming up on the 1 year anniversary of 11-54 and I feel like I should do something special.(other than try to bring it to a satisfying conclusion)
But I'm bad with anniversaries so I'm not sure what to do. if anyone has any good suggestions I'm all ears.
lol Res has a tini peni
>>27463992
It's normal sized and fully functioning
>>27464010
It's true, he sent me pics via pm in sekrit club. Kinda makes a strong curve to the right, but it's normal sized.

What happened to beard? Anyone heard if he's starting up again soon?
>>27463988

I'd make cheese out of her maremilk and have her eat it.
>>27406361

>>27463988
I love the revised image of Spear meeting Pepper, it's nice.
As for celebrating the anniversary, it's hard to say what you should do cause there is quite a few options, some taking more work than others.
Maybe have a bit in the story where it's a goofy little spinoff of its own, filler, if you will.
>>27464138
>>27464096
Well I did have this Idea that I originally planned on having as an option at the end of the quest.
It was going to be a shot CYOA where you play as a mercenary trying to assist in the evacuation of the Tabuck facility during the actual disaster that prompted it's abandonment. Not sure if I should run that before the ending though.
>>27464196
No no, I think keeping it to after the ending is a good idea. But that killed my only idea for doing something to celebrate the anniversary.
I'm actually morbidly curious to even get a glimpse of what happened during that terrible incident and i'm glad that's actually some thing you were planning on doing.
I have no clue what you should do then. At least I don't think I can think of anything you probably haven't thought of yourself.
We need a Captain Swefag quest
>>27464257
What was your idea anyway?
>>27464387
Generic things, like one idea being a picture of a good chunk of the 11-54 cast standing around a big cake with a 1 on it. Or another idea being remaking some of the really old titlecards/header images for the older threads.
And depending on how ambitious you feel, you could get even more elaborate with the possible ideas though. Truthfully I can't even really think of one at the moment, but I know there is some.

Reminder that Twilight already won.
Did Panzer say when he was going to start that new thread?
>>27465660
There are only like 2 quests where Twiggles didn't already win.
This is Clearsoul from War in The North. She is a small meek erf pone who is one of our friends and is the most overpowered ally since I read Shooting Stars.
She is so incredibly fast that she is invisible. She can also become intangible at will, as you can see in pic related. She fights with only a dagger but it's ok since she can deflect a rapidly spinning rope weapon with heavy iron balls at the end repeatedly.
>>27465932
Sounds OP. I tend to dislike that just on personal preference.
>>27465932
She a cute though.
>>27465993
But that's wrong
I feel I owe an apology for vanishing these last few days.
IRL stuff kinda hit, so sorry for not notifying you guys earlier.
I probably won't have an evening free to qm until like Monday. When I start back though, would you rather play AtO, or Lyraquest? We're at a decent stopping point in AtO, so I'm fine with either option.

I'd like to resume AtO. It's gotten more interesting.

I dunno, I don't know all the CYOAs that are and were.
Fuck
this
>>27465932
>>27465958
I feel the need to clear out a few things. Probably due to mistakes in how it was written, you made a couple of wrong assumptions. Clear isn't fast at all, she has the average pony speed, the only reason she's caught Knit from behind is because of her ability. That's all she can do, vanish and sneak from behind at a normal speed.
She doesn't know a thing about fighting, and in the most recent fight, the gif with the bolas gave the wrong impression as to how she defended herself. I take all responsibility on not writing in a proper way to highlight her weaknesses, and my art being as lame as usual, but I can't let you say things that are wrong. If anyone would like to check, you're invited to read those parts of the quest again. Sorry for the inconvenience.
>>27467526
Another Sweetie Belle CYOA
>>27467526
I dunno
Rate an idea: You are a changeling male who accidently ends up replacing a mare in Ponyville. The mare is both a wife and a mother but, as it turnes out, she's horrible as both of them. Now you have to somehow live her life. You can either "follow" in her shoes or be a good pony.

>>27468206
I took her not being fast during last spar as her going easy on us. You can probably figure why I assumed what I did. I apologize.
>>27468420
Well, you can make it on purpose but you didn't realize she was actually a horrible pony.
>>27468422

>>27468412

How long do you think a CYOA thread should be bumped for after the QM ends a session?
http://www.strawpoll.me/10317049
>>27469659
Me x you
>>27469795
>>27469779
>more than 24 hours
That's bullshit, unless actual discussion is going on in the thread. If it's really just bumping, that would be like over 70 empty posts with nothing but "bump" or something like thatbecause retards don't know that you can delete your post after bumping, so you don't fill the thread with your empty shit
>>27469795
Wew lad
That's my OTP
>>27469779
Nothing at all, people should let it die and just let the QM make their own threads.
>>27467782
I want that too! But I can't draw and I've never run a quest before.
>>27469848
>>27469831
I agree. If a thread needs artificial bumping, it should just die until the QM decides to make a new one. There is literally no reason why that should be a problem. If there's an actual discussion, that's fine, but I hate those dumb chains of empty posts that are only replies to the previous empty bump post. At least try to start a discussion and don't just hit the post button like an imbecile.
>>27469831
I'm pretty sure the people who vote 3 days are the ones who let others do the work.
>>27469848
>>27469922
It really depends on the QM. Some like to think of threads like episodes or chapters, and base their run times around that. (I still have a thread up, I should do more now then take a break after it's done). As well, some of the QMs with multiple quests like to submit a vote for what quest the next thread will be for when one dies, regardless of how long the last thread was, so keeping a thread alive in that instance will determine which quest gets more updates sooner.
For the QMs that only have one quest and just update whenever the fuck it certainly does matter less though. Although even then having fewer, larger threads reads better on the anonpone archive than a greater number of short, single-session threads, at least in my opinion.
