       Arc Finale: Part III
       By: Sans Date: April 13, 2017, 7:01 am

       [font=comic sans
       ms]* Heya. How's it going?
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/2wp4aww.jpg[/img]
       *So. I'm supposed
       to let you know that the finale for the current Arc on the
       forum: Whispers of the Mines is coming up very soon.
       [IMG]

       * Mostly because we
       are running on a time limit, so unfortunately we cannot wait for
       everyone.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/331jceq.jpg[/img]
       * Among other
       things which have been going on, I have, uh, been keeping an eye
       socket on things. As I usually do. It's a part of my job after
       all.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/2wp4aww.jpg[/img]
       * I have seen a
       lot of interesting posts lately. Actions and choices taken on
       the simplest and even the most trivial of things. Things that
       tell me what kind of a character you really are.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i67.tinypic.com/x4oqrd.jpg[/img]
       * Though, I gotta
       say, I am a little nervous about some of you. Especially by the
       lack of action or words spoken in particular situations - and
       it's not because of some of you being too busy with
       other-worldly things out there...
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/331jceq.jpg[/img]
       * But, everyone
       has an opportunity to redeem any... 'Bad Karma Points' in Part
       III.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i67.tinypic.com/w9usdy.jpg[/img]
       * I've been told
       that making posts which particularly are creative,
       unexpected-yet-not-ridiculously-proportioned and encourage other
       characters to think or work together are usually the best ones
       to go for if you're worried about those Bad Karma Points.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i66.tinypic.com/25fud5k.jpg[/img]
       * Unless you're
       some kind of freak of course.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/331jceq.jpg[/img]
       * So, I'm pretty
       sure that my buddy Zarc should be able to get a good reading out
       of all of you soon enough. Heh. Looks like we're gonna need it.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i67.tinypic.com/w9usdy.jpg[/img]
       * As you know, this
       Arc is shaped by you and your actions and choices dictate which
       story line is being told. There are three major influences and
       paths in the Arc. They are dubbed '[s]Flowey[/s] Dunked Tier',
       'Trinity Tier' and 'Koray Tier'. From the looks of it, two of
       these tiers have been paid by particular attention by you guys a
       lot more than the third.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/2wp4aww.jpg[/img]
       * So what does
       that mean?
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i67.tinypic.com/w9usdy.jpg[/img]
       * Whelp. It means
       that the third tier's story won't have as much of an impact as
       the other two. One tier, in particular has had a lot of
       attention paid to it lately... so it means that one will have
       the biggest presence in the finale.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i65.tinypic.com/eq7811.jpg[/img]
       * Which means...
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/331jceq.jpg[/img]
       * You better get
       your gear ready. Because you're about to enter 'Hardcore Mode'.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/2wp4aww.jpg[/img]
       * Things will be
       challenging. You will be pushed to your limit. You will most
       likely get dunked on. But nothing is impossible. We will be
       harsh but never unfair. None of us will certainly not be taking
       actions for the sake of being 'awesome'. That's boring and kinda
       too much effort yanno?
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/2wp4aww.jpg[/img]
       * If something
       looks like it doesn't work, my advice is to try something else,
       because, chances are, the answers are literally right under your
       nose. Be sure to read every little detail in every post made by
       the Arc Host. I hear that she will be not only dropping a lot of
       bomb shells, but, also clues on how to be successful.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i64.tinypic.com/331jceq.jpg[/img]
       * That, or, use
       Skype I guess.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i65.tinypic.com/eq7811.jpg[/img]
       * But I don't think
       the Arc Host would be giving hints away that have already been
       posted... so yeah.
       [IMG]
  HTML http://i67.tinypic.com/w9usdy.jpg[/img]
       * Good luck to all
       of you. While tough times and decisions lie ahead, I'm rooting
       for you, kid.[/font]

       Re: Arc Finale: Part III
       By: Sans Date: April 15, 2017, 4:59 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       24 hours remaining until the finale starts! :o
       So if you would like to get in early in participating in the
       finale make sure you wrap up any canon rps you're in and have
       your characters exot them before joining in on a finale thread!
       Remember, based on your choices (and lack of choices) you guys
       have unlocked  the 'Hardcore Mode' in the RP; which means it is
       the most challenging but also the most exciting path you could
       possibly take in the arc. Things will be tough but it's also
       rewarding for those who make the right kinds of posts - it will
       also mever be unfair. So here's my last piece of advice before
       diving into Part III!
       1. It doesn't matter how 'amazing', 'powerful', 'perfect' or
       just plain 'awesome' your character may be. That isn't going to
       matter when you're fighting against Determination. You're not
       the inky one participating. The way the Arc has been designed -
       even on the easiest path - is that everyone participating is
       needed and is equally important. Work together. You can even
       scheme/plot behund my back  in order to try and figure somethung
       out.
       2. Where there is a will, there is a way. If something isn't
       working, try something else. Make sure that read every little
       detail in posts written by myself, Link and Sprite because we
       will be dropping little hints on how to overcome challenges if
       you're struggling. Especially my posts, because I will be
       frequently dropping hints on how to get the best possible
       outcome in a lot of my posts.
       Skimming through posts or neglecting to respond to important
       parts of posts will be your worsr enemy.
       3. Posts which are creative, thoughtful and help flourish
       character development/enhance the situation for both parties/not
       self-centered will give you a much better advantage when it's
       needed the most in the story. You will be rewarded for yiur
       efforts don't you worry ;)
       4. No derailing! If you do anything that distracts from the
       story or siruation at hand for everyone to sudden focus on you,
       you will get super dunked on super hard. (Common examples
       inclide suddenly diving into your character's backstory or
       having them starting to die without asking me first. I have had
       this happen to me before in previous arcs I have hosted and it
       is extremely frustrating.) By that I mean, any characters who do
       that will most likely get locked up in the Void or something
       until after the finale.
       Cheers guys! Good luck!
