Pokemon Umbral Discussion 36: Questions Are Overrated - Page 3

Matt's Porygon's Sync Tech is A-OK in my book. Although, why stop there? He could replace all the assigned sound bits with some fake orgasm sound. Every time he double-click. Every time there is an pop-up or a prompt, everything he resets, load a file or anything like that, it'll cue that sound!

What I meant was that out of all the characters that could have been chosen for Domination, you chose the one that everyone WANTS to knock out, out of character wise. As if you disliked Togekiss for some reason too! Crazy, uh?

Anyhow, at best, I'll probably try to have Renny use both actions to try to convert Togekiss before Lexhur uses the laser and Devil's Drift on Mio... If it works, great. If not... well, the chances of the worst case happening is 25%... >_>

Dante, Dante.

You must make Matthias that much of a douche-bag. There is simply no other option.

Although, on top of doing everything Menarker and AB said, you should also take Impact's voice, paste it over one or both of the males so that it sounds like he's the one saying "oh yeah ffuuuuuccckk meeeee" while getting assraped, and then play it all over the PATCA building's PA.

So basically what your saying is.

Step A) Matthias becomes addicted to Rage Rockets.

Step B) Fuck with everyone's computers and their reputations.

Step C) Somehow not get brutally murdered

Step D) ?????

Step E) Profit!

Hell, why stop there? You could probably hack bank accounts 'n' shit. Hack an online game, hack a max level character with the best weapons and armor right off the bat and then hack the game so you can kill anyone and laugh at their Livejournals.

Ye gods, what evil hath my heretical hands wrought?

Something beautiful.

Anyway, plan:

Rachel: Spend 50 Rage and use four Rage Rockets on Lexhur.
Impact: Max Revive on Shaymin. Swarm Bow on Moera.
Renny: Deploy Swampert. Shaymin to use Air Slash on the Fog and Swampert to Mimic Air Slash.
Charlotte: Arceus to use Judgment on Asura Beta A. Sol-Leks to use Fire Blast on Asura Beta A.
Wilhelmina: Piercing Shot on Toxicroak Pokemerc.
Pierce: Max Revive on Tyranitar. Tyranitar to use Earthquake on Toxicroak and Asura Beta D (backlash on Shaymin). If Toxicroak is dead, Crunch on Moera. Palkia to use Spacial Rend on Miyo.
Matthias: Hyper Beam on Moera.
Moon: Lanturn to use Signal Beam on Moera. Split Rage with Shannon to use Moonbeam Disco on Moera and Asura Betas D, E and F.
Harliette: Wormadam to use Bug Bite on Moera. Illumise to use Bug Buzz on Moera. Aqua Shot on Moera.
Lexhur: Lexhur Laser centered on Millenium Battlebot. Devil's Drift on Miyo.
Trainer Attack: On Asura Beta A, or if it's dead, on Moera.

[Evolith/Device Space 1] [Matthias] [Sol-Leks] [Arceus] [Bastiodon] [Wormadam] [Harliette] [Illumise] [Swampert] [Shaymin] [Tyranitar] [Palkia] [Lanturn] [Kingdra] [Impact] [Evolith/Device Space 2]

Not gonna quote, just gonna write.
Drac:

New Pierce sounds... interesting, I guess. Should be fun. Though not as fun as Charlotte.

Cryptic jerk-ass hints are all you're getting. You don't have to react to them. But come on. Would I waste my breath on cryptic hints if there wasn't a significant chance that I'd get to say 'I told you so' in several years time? Has any of my frustratingly vague information ever not been right on the mark?

And I'm sorry. Since when did 'Impact being leader and controlling the team with an IRON FIST' ever count as 'chaos'? That is the exact opposite of chaos. It is anti-chaos. It is the exact opposite of anarchy. It is Control, motherfuckers. And the only chance you guys have to prevent it is graaaadually slipping away from you. And another cryptic hint? If you do so, you better buy a new pair of kicking-yourself boots, because OH MAN YOU COULD CERTAINLY USE AN EXTRA PAIR OF THOSE.

Because, see, you're arguing. You're refusing to listen. You're too caught-up in the heroism of your own character that you have to, HAVE TO take this chance to make him leader. You're not being... reasonable.
Let's talk about our literary preferences for a moment.
In the past, for me, mostly fantasy and sci-fi. I read those by the dozen.
But now time is short... I don't bulk-read anymore, I've become more of a conniseur... I read eagerly, but only books of great quality. The latest was a fascinating book called 'Special Topics in Calamity Physics'. A mystery, I guess, but in a really interesting context, and told from the point of view of a fascinating-incredibly-acute-but-slightly-insane young woman.
Right now? I'm reading "The Godfather". Just as fascinating, though in another way. I'm sure you know it. Don Corleone really interests me. In a PM to you I once mentioned something called 'tactical diplomacy', just something I came up with off the top of my head to describe what I was doing at the time. And Corleone? He's fucking mastered it. Seriously, on the 'magnificent bastard' scale, he comes just under Vetinari, and certainly above Artemis Fowl. Way above Impact, for now. Above me, even!
Above me as well, for that matter. He just has more... style, I guess. He's better in the long term. His personal philosophy is far more effective, as well. He really knows how to compromise. How to be reasonable. How to make sure that everyone gets a little, that everyone's happy, but that he's happiest. He rarely has to use force. Barely ever threatens!
The only time you really have to worry for yourself when you're negotiating with him is when he despairs. When he throws up his hands in frustration and walks away and calls you... unreasonable. Because that means that you've resisted his best attempts at persuading you to see things his way, it means that there's literally no way but force, through which he can get his way. It means he made you an offer you can't refuse, and you refused it anyway. Unreasonable.

But I'm not like him, sadly. I'm not as strict as him, not as competent. I propose a lot of ultimatums, every time one gets rejected, a new one pops up. I get more likely to employ force each time, but it's nothing final. Nothing so very consequent. It's a slippery slope. And though it's getting quite slippery now... And hey, I certainly aspire to be like him. In these negotiations, anyway. But until then... here we go again.

You owe me a favor. Moderate, I believe. Now, there's a variety of ways to interpret that. But I'm not even going to call it in right now, as such. Instead... I'll make an offer. Not necessarily one you can't refuse, but an offer. If this deal goes through, with Charlotte as leader, with unanimous agreement from everyone, that favor will be forgotten. That is fair?

And finally, I'm not your enemy! It would be unpleasant for both of us if I was. So consider, eh? Consider carefully. Slippery slope and all that. ^^

Menarker: I assume that your lack of reply is to be interpreted as agreement.

Dante:
...
Do me a favor. Go on youtube, look up 'g-mod idiot box hax'. That will give you my opinion on all of the unorthodox uses thereof. Especially those involving Impact.
