I feel like like such a bother, but I'm really confused about the point distribution listed for Famine: Poisons.

In the points distribution it said that "a pass does not give you points", so would that mean you can only get the points if you failed?


AHhhhhhhh! That's a lingering thing from the orig write up! I just re-wrote part of it to better explain.

Basically to get points your poison/antidote needs to be in the positive ranges vrs negatives/zero. While it's possible to IC 'pass' with negatives, there isn't IC much reason to reward a really bad creation. Sort of like how if you get a D on a test it still passes but... no one really rewards a D in class. :c


What does "points must be in the positive range" mean, exactly? Does it mean that if either poison or antidote is 0 or negative, you cannot get horseman points for that day's exercise no matter what? Does it mean the antidote HAS to be higher than the poison for you to claim any points? i am full of confused hapl

just to clarify, points can be used for raffle -or- mini points, yes? Not for both.

Yep @ if poison or antidote are in negatives or at zero, no matter point dif, it's still falling under the negatives.

Just wondering, are our Training PRP threads exempt from the "only three PRP/ORPs open a time" rule, since we've been asked to keep them open for re-use? Or does the limit of three mean Training thread plus only two other PRPs/ORPs at a time?

And if two people decide to do the Priestess Trials together, could they collaborate on making the art (eg. one does lines, one colours) and still each receive a point for it - assuming they succeeded? Or would you prefer individual art creation only?

Raffle question:
Can we use raffle points for a particular horsemen character we are interested in? Or is it like a 'list preference' sort of deal once it comes down to drawing it.

I am only drawn to one or two of them in terms of character inspiration and was wondering how it would work. I want to spend my points wisely ... since I also want all the minipets.

Collab is fine if you're doing the thread/trial together! biggrin But please make sure you only use it once-- meaning, you both can get the point for it but don't reuse the artwork if you do the trial again in the next 24 hours/another day! But overall, collaborations are eligible for points!

What course is that? Please give me the name of the course and the clan it's from, then we can quote the GM who made the course to answer for you.

I did something a little stupid. Trying one of the training grounds, I realized I rolled the wrong amount of dice ... and then deleted the post to roll the right amount of dice without thinking - I don't want to look like I'm cheating gonk What should I do? Should I use the roll from the previous post [it was a 1] or.. can I keep going? Or should I just forfeit my training for the day?


In the future please do not delete your posts. If you roll the incorrect dice, just edit your post to say ((wrong dice, sorry!)) or something similar along those lines. Otherwise it does look like cheating. D: You can keep going, but in the future please edit instead.

Another prompt question. XD

Quote:
You can only do this twice per RP you make. Match your dice roll to the results below for a prompt/ small reaction that your student may discover. RP out results accordingly.


Does this mean in one rp you can't roll more than the two times even after the 24 hour point? Aka - Can't recycle the thread for another attempt the next day.


I personally see nothing wrong with recycling a thread~

A little confused:

- all the prompts info posts say "You can only redeem a max of two from all prompt prps/orps your student is in per OOC 24 hours."

- however, the announcement states "YOU CAN ONLY OBTAIN 3 POINTS IN PRPS/ORPS A DAY "

So, is it limited to 2 or 3 points for prompt prps/orps per 24 hours?


The answer is two for orps/prompts. I will update posts accordingly.

You can only attempt one course per 24 hours, so technically you have one training course active and two PRP/ORPs active at any given time. As far as the training courses go, I think you can easily recycle your training thread for a new class/prompt/training. I'd imagine that it'd be easier to keep your training RPs all in one place, vs spreading them out all over.

As for the art... To me, splitting the art collaboration is like splitting the work in half, so technically you'd both get half a credit. However, that would be for one character. So long as you guys team up to draw all of your characters, so one person sketches/lines the other colors, that seems like a fair division of labor to me and as such you'd both earn a point.
See RA's answer, as she was the one who designed that trial.

We will contact winners for preferences. You may list only the ones you're interested in as your preference as well. If the ones you were interested in were taken, then we'll bump the winners up and reroll an additional winner.

forrrr the toxic cave prompt, stage 3
"Running down yet another hall, you have to dive into a pool of dark water and swim through a tunnel."

Danny ... physically can't swim. Can I say she side-stepped the pool or something?

Quote:

The war clansman supervising the track crosses her arms, seeming to contemplate outright booting the fire demoness into the lake anyway. She resists the urge however, and beckons Danny to follow her. She leads the visiting student to a dark area where, lit by the fire of Danny's tail, she can see what looks to be a dark recess. It's a dank, dark tunnel that smells musty and has some sort of slippery and slick almost mucus-like goo coating the walls.

"If you do not swim, you must crawl." The war clanswoman shrugs and turns away. There is barely enough room in the tunnel for Danny to squeeze into.


Follow the prompt as usual. This is a one-time thing, so if you run the course again you will need to speak with Vamps. For this, follow the rolls as usual -- Danny's just in a goo/mucus-like filled tunnel instead of swimming. Take the automatic -5 HP as she is fire based as well.

I'm sorry to be a bother, but I'm sort of having a problem with the Conquest class smile

First: Roll 1d10 (are we noticing a pattern yet? O_O )
Second: If you roll an even number, the mixture doesn't stick and you will have to try (roll) again! If you roll an odd number, it adheres just fine!


I KEEP ROLLING EVEN NUMBERS FIVE ROLLS SO FAR xd Should I keep spamming the rolls until I finally manage to roll odd? Same question applies to all the mechanical situations like that. Thank you! heart
