The Last Poster Wins! [v21]

[Neo Emolga]

Thank god you posted Neo because for an hour or so I was seriously concerned I'd have to give all the points to Noble.
And that would be no fun.
now i'm just seriously concerned if the platoon will get ANY points from creative writing

Yeah, I almost didn't make it. In fact, I had to give up writing Neo Emolga Masterpiece Mischief to get this done (I'm not even sure if people are still reading it). I might have to do that tomorrow, or just skip this week. Bleh, I just haven't had much time to do any of that stuff. And comics. Wow, forget about that. I had some good ideas in mind for that too, but I found it impossible to do them without driving myself to the edge of insanity. XD

Neo, retract your entry.

Yeah his story sounds a lot more creative than mine but I don't have time to read it because I'm working on this long AF RP post.

NEVER!

I haven't been able to read anything you've written either and I'm curious as to how The Butterfly Epoch is. As for creativity, well, I'm sure yours is creative, too. I think we have very different styles, but great things can come in all shapes and forms.

I need to get Drawn Art done now. Oof, haven't had any time to work on the background, either. I might have to go with something abstract or basic, because I'm seriously stripped for time.

Next PXFIRE, we definitely NEED section rotations. Otherwise forget it, there's no chance people will break out of comfort zones for participation sake if everything is going on at once and people still need to be choosy about what they enter. But if you only have one or two things going on at once, boom, I think WAY more people would at least just try to submit something.

I mean you can read them if you want, but don't feel pressured to. I've got a few things I need to attend to first but I do have ever intention to go back over and rewrite the Butterfly Epoch. Some of the first chapters might be pretty similar, but as the story goes on, there will be changes.

Best of luck to you man. I'm still chugging away at this RP post. #thelongestpostever

Yeah definitely. I actually wouldn't be opposed to running Showdown next year though. It's quite fun actually!

l'm still reading the Mischief Masterpieces!

Insanity is totally a Prankster Platoon thing, Neo. Come join our team. It's probably not too late. You know you want to.

Compared to everyone else I feel like my posts in the RP are less posts, more post-its. XD
Mm, if it's rotating and still 4 weeks I feel like I'd only be able to get in one round of Creative Writing, if I wanted to keep the two-weeks per round set-up.

Oh, well. Trial and error I guess. We'll hit closer to the mark next year! Or make totally new mistakes. Both are kind of progress though.

All right post up! Go meet the girls. Only about... five of them are named so far, but they've all been introduced. Wondering if people will catch on to the two themes that are going on with the particular pokemon I picked.

Well, just submitted for Drawn Art because I am almost 100% completely out of time. I'd have to give up meeting with my friend for watching Game of Thrones otherwise and... I just can't do that. :x

I RUSHED THE HECK out of the background for the Drawn Art, but it still looks okay. I still feel like I could go further with it if I had more time, but ah well. Considering this morning, I was half-considering just forgoing the background entirely because I had a bunch of things outside of PXR to do and a very incomplete Creative Writing piece. Thankfully, I managed to get both down in time, because it felt like I wasn't going to make it with either of them.

Ah cool, glad someone out there is reading them! While they're fun to write, they take a while and I was already in time crisis mode this weekend. XD

Personally, I think all three teams are cool. I could easily see myself happy being on any of these.

As for Creative Writing, I really liked working with both prompts. They were fun and added that extra challenge and spice. And in fact, they helped me get started by using those as the foundation for the plot. It's actually easier to work with those than to just have "do anything!" thrown on your lap.

@Noblejanobii CHRISTINE DAAE
ANGEL OF MUSIC
IS THIS THEME GOING TO BE MUSICALS

No wait
'Delphi', Oracle of Delphi, Apollo's oracle correct?
MUSICALS AND GREEK MYTHOLOGY
I'm kind of hoping for a Lucy Harris.
Wait a sec. Zilla, Anguirus? GODZILLA. NOT EXPECTING THAT.
Victoria I didn't get her reference.

Jesus, Noble, how many references did you MAKE in that post.

[Noblejanobii]

Gracidea Order is the best! There is no other acceptable team!

Yeah and I got my RP post up so hooray!

It was gonna be musicals but that didn't go over well.

So yes, Christine is Phantom of the Opera. Delphi is Apollo's oracle. Zilla is Godzilla. Surprised you didn't catch the lucario's reference. And Victoria is based on a type of fashion that's popular in Japan.

One for every name that showed up and there's a few more to come.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand done reading Predestination. On to Making Mad, and then Blue Whale.

[Noblejanobii]

Is this the first time through or is this the graded review?

[LKWayvern]

This is the first time but I was sort of jotting down my comments at the same time. Tomorrow when it's sunk in more I may go back and do some more thoughtful ones.
Also done with Making Mad. On to the final one...
