Hemalurgic Headshot Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Oh hey guys, I'm back. Gone all this week, so I didn't see y'all. I suppose I'll check the doc? And there's also an interrogation doc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeMarshall Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Also @Sazedezas if you wanted to work together to write Karabiner and Epoch talking before the meeting we can do that (possibly working on it concurrently with the meeting since we'll eventually post all of the stuff in sequence anyway), otherwise I'm going to drop that and focus mainly on moving the meeting forwards. Speaking of the meeting, does anyone have plans for saying something to the question about Doubletake's death? To my knowledge none of our characters actually know what happened to Doubletake but if somebody wanted to say something (or stage an assassination or whatever ) the door is open. Otherwise I'll probably move things along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I'll check the doc? And there's also an interrogation doc? That's for the Quietus/Red & Jacklyn scene. It's worse than you think and we're not even too far in. I was Red in my dream last night. It was Red Lite, barely in any detail, because dreams and thank goodness for that, but still. Still. You know that quote that goes "Do you think God lives in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he created?" Yeah, that's me with this very special and respectable individual sometimes. I've been drawing her a whole bunch since I've included her in my webcomic project and it's certainly interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My musical has been optioned for the spring performance instead of the fall one, so I've got a tiny bit more time on my hands and it should be enough for this RP.

Do you have a script I could look at? I am somewhat interested in reading things, and I don't know what to read now that I've gone through most of the Urban Fantasy Literature TVTropes page.

I was gonna say that 7 minutes ago, breakingamber said: No. What's the author's name? Wildbow. (his real name is John C. McCrae if that's what you're asking) It's a complete web serial available here. It's kind of like Reckoners, and kind of not.

breakingamber Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 I'm enjoying it! See you in a couple days! Maybe. I haven't checked the length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Young Pyromancer Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 If you like bonus content, read at least some of the comments. Early on it doesn't really matter, but later on it like doubles/triples the depth of the story, and you can watch as people slowly tried to piece together the background of the setting as you struggle to do so yourself. In addition, it provides a bit of a time-buffer between chapters, which was part of the original format, and helps you experience the story as the author intended. Also, there is Psycho Gecko, who is just AMAZING. Oh, and at one point people are talking about the donation system the author set up, and someone was trying to figure out the average money made per hour of working on it, so the author said how much money he'd gotten from donations (2k something) and the someone replies, SaintSant, I think, with: "Three thousand now, actually." And everyone else is just like "...." Seriously, Worm is very similar to what the Cosmere would be if it was written as a Web Serial. Go read it, and the comments too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s pretty long. If you count the sequel (which is currently being written) I think it could potentially rival wheel of time in word count. EDIT: Just looked it up, it doesn’t quite match wheel of time levels of longness. Assuming Ward ends up being as long as Worm it would still be only ~75% the length of the wheel of time books.

The Young Pyromancer Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Just Worm is longer if you add the comments though. I think. Edited June 19, 2019 by The Young Pyromancer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeMarshall Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Probably true. There's a lot of comments. There's also Pact and Twig, both of which are pretty good as well in my opinion, but also pretty different from Worm and not necessarily everyone's cup of tea.

The Swan Dragon Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Another fun read is Romantically Apocalyptic, which is a web serial/comic. It gets...weird. In a good way, mostly. I'm not quite caught up right now, but it's fun, and sometimes the comments are worth checking out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakingamber Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Well that was nice. Pretty good read. If I had to rate it, I'd give it a solid 8.5 out of 10. Very nice, quite long, might want to reread it later. It's definitely interesting enough to make me want to check out wildbow's other work, so I'll be back in a month.

DrakeMarshall Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Okay so there hasn't been a lot going down in the meeting doc so I've moved the ball forwards... If Karabiner's assassination isn't something that happens soon on its own, I'm possibly going to create a window of opportunity for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
