ooc [OOC, Signups Closed] Train Ride Headed West (On hold)

This scene and Beats reaction but I have to admit the watter bottle was alittle exessive you know.

I still don't get it...it would be easier to cast a spell on her that makes her face burn? I mean, if he wanted to get something as a weapon, he could grab box, a knife, I don't know...why a water bottle? your post it's ok though, but Sandweaver's logic to harm another pony it's pretty weird IMO XD

Hey, boiling water is an effective method to subdue someone if you don't have a viable weapon. All you do is badly burn someone, in the hopes that they'll just cower in pain on the floor. Less brutal than bludgeoning.

you liked my post I take it? haha thank you very much <3 I'm glad I made you laugh

Star Weaver's post is OK, I'm just curious of Sandweaver choice of actions.

Due to his deteriorating magic, he couldn't really "grab" something that is not solid (imagine someone who can't hold a jelly in his hand)

 

Yeah, he can grab one of his knives, heat it up to the point of glowing, and kill whatever he hit with the scalding-hot metal, but I figured it would be too overkill.

We're talking about a pony who made his living heating up the glassworks here, a merely boiling water is a mercy.

Hmm... SO it seems Ganaram ran into the wrong train... This makes things kinda... Hmm... I was personally thinking of having Electro board the train he Ganaram didn't, but this will mess up my plans with the missing saddlebag, and Beat Spark... So hmm... Go join Ganaram, and go through with the idea, or just board the appropriate train...

[Driz 1,552]

Hm... So, has anything been decided yet about what the two groups are going to be?

 

Amber will be following Ganaram inside the wrong train (i.e. to Manehatten) and Electrobolt might join in too, I'm not sure. Jade, Beat, Draco and Sandweaver, having lagged behind (I think), are most likely going to board the appropriate train (i.e. to Appleloosa). We still need Rook to show up somewhere, but he will probably be inside the Manehatten train, and Leaf Orange will be waiting inside the Appleloosa train, perhaps?

 

So, summing it all up, here's what I got so far:

 

Manehatten group (Wrong train, having jolted in panic before the others in between all the chaos)

-Ganaram

-Amber

-Electrobolt

-Rook (Already inside)

 

Appleloosa group (Right train, having "lagged behind" the others and will keep all the luggage)

-Beat Spark

-Jade

-Draco

-Sandweaver

-Leaf Orange (Already inside)

 

I hope I'm not missing anypony... Is that correct? :s

 

Whether the groups are going to be, though, my opinion is that they shouldn't be very irregular. Like, two characters only going to one place.

Jade seemed to follow Beat's voice during the disturbance, so I would prefer to have a brief scenario with Beat and Jade alone before we get to the train. I don't mind which train Beat will end up, I'll adapt to whichever situation.

[Electrobolt 2,069]

Hmm... Now I really dunno whether I wanna go Manehatten or not... xD But I was still planning on having Electro being with Amber anyways, so that seems like it'll work... But hmm... One question... Would the train headed to Manehatten also happen to have sleeping cars, like the right train does?

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Manehatten group (Wrong train, having jolted in panic before the others in between all the chaos)

-Ganaram

-Amber

-Electrobolt

-Rook (Already inside)

 

Appleloosa group (Right train, having "lagged behind" the others and will keep all the luggage)

-Beat Spark

-Jade

-Draco

-Sandweaver

-Leaf Orange (Already inside)

 

This (or some variant) will best maintain symmetry between each group.

Authorisation granted. I'll hold off on posting, then.

 

Given what's above, Beat will be our "wildcard".

 

One question... Would the train headed to Manehatten also happen to have sleeping cars, like the right train does?

 

Yes.

Notice that with my latest post, I had Ganaram extremely worried.

So... I suppose that, with Ganaram's latest post, now would be a good time for @@AnonyPoni to possibly join in as Rook...?

[Starshine 16,333]

Question: is there any color differences between the two trains? I figured it would be much easier if both trains are color-coded

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Question: is there any color differences between the two trains?

 

I thought the trains would be uniform in design, hence building up more confusion between which is which.

 

On the other hand, real-life transit systems could go by number, letter, or colour to distinguish which route is which, so a system like that could be in play.

[Starshine 16,333]

Now that's hard... But the trains' location was not changed during the previous electrical repairing, right?

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Now that's hard... But the trains' location was not changed during the previous electrical repairing, right?

 

There are several ways to look at it:

 

- They moved the train out of the way, perhaps on a separate track, to make way for other cars

- It's in its former position, but another train just so happened to be there. Extra confusion and adrenaline overriding common sense makes ponies like Ganaram take the wrong one, especially when your eyes are covered up.

[Starshine 16,333]

The thing is, in the newer train it had some overhead compartments, which I'm pretty sure the older train didn't have.

(factors like these should have been announced earlier, though. We need some justifications why some ponies managed to pick the right train even after all those set-ups)

[Electrobolt 2,069]

Well, for Electro's sake... He would just rush into the sleeping car he believes is his... So he wouldn't really notice the overhead compartments

Or I can just go in and remove that little detail altogether.

 

It entails more post editing, but whatever...

I don't wanna be in this RP anymore, I just made a stupid entry post and I don't know where to go there

I feel that your post is saying that you don't wan't to leave but you feel like you messed up with your first post (which I think you did) that makes you feel like it's not possible to correct that mistake since the RP has followed it's way through.

I would say don't because we are just starting and things are getting fun, you can fix you character's mistake later but in the end the decision is really up to you

I'm thinking of my next post being that my OC takes the wrong train and is left in the middle of nowhere.

is this your way of telling us that you won't partake in the RP anymore? because if that's so, you don't need to do an exit post, because your OC didn't made anything relevant yet.

We can always try to fix things in a few posts when everypony boards the train. Don't be to rough on yourself :c

 

Besides, you're currently on the right train, which will go to Miramare. There will be other ponies with you.

[Electrobolt 2,069]

I'm with Starweaver aka TwinkleShine on this... Anyways, as for me, I think I'll go work up a post right now...

In a few posts. Currently all of us are stampeding to the train. At worst it would take about seven posts before we all boarded the train.
