Mirror's a girl.

hope you're thinking about Moon.

If I remember correctly, the only one here who thinks weather effects are unbalanced is you.
Menarker and I honestly believe they're fine as is.
I mean, hell, who uses weather effects in the game? There are a rare few situations where weather effects are actually viable instead of the ever popular "spam most powerful move" strategy. And in those situations, you're probably not going to use weather effects because you've been killing shit without them so far and you're not going to waste time or money giving a pokemon a stupid weather move for one freakin' battle when you're just going to go right back to killing shit the usual way anyway.
So yeah, compared to how useless they are in the games, I'm definitely okay with weather effects in this RP. They're, y'know,
useful.

Because heh, y'know what's a disaster? Trying to keep this logical and respectable. And y'know what'd be an even bigger disaster? If we succeeded.
I said a while ago that my goal when role-playing is to write a good story. There's more than one way to do that. And over-the-top? That's certainly a way. TTGL did it. Homestuck is doing it. Why not try to follow in their footsteps?
Mind you, all-out doesn't mean uncontrolled, or shit. If we do it this way, it'll probably take more thought than it used to, since we'd be on a fine line of awesome above a gorge of ridiculousness. Let's retain some basic logic, make the characters, the conflicts believable. It's very easy to justify things, and it's easy to hand-wave stuff if they're uninteresting compared to the boobs and explosions. This would take rather a lot of coordination. But heh, if we put effort into it, I'd be surprised if we didn't pull it off. I mean, come to think of it, AB's been writing it this way since the second mission. If we support him, come up with our own wacky stuff, justify each others things...
we could do this man
we cuold make this hapen

Why are you making a big speech about bands?
And sure, what the hell, let's do it.
But why are you making a speech?
