ooc The Trotting Dead (Closed)

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

I think we should plan out what's going to happen for (not the rest of the story), but the foreseeable future. 

[Grand_Finale 529]

The train explodes and we all die a fiery death at the fault of someone putting TNT on the traintracks AMIRITE

[NinjaCPU 270]

That sounds like a BAD END in some type of RPG. Well, wasn't the plan to go into the Everfree Forest from the backdoor? 

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

Yes, but then what? We need to keep this RP interesting so that it doesn't stagnate and die like all the others eventually do. We need to finish this one.

[Grand_Finale 529]

We come across a zombified zecora who still knows how to use spells and shtuff. Or we can keep her alive, but she's become a CANNIBAL like in the game

Well, we already have the train bit down, we've been in a big city like Savannah already. (Yes, i have the game. The one by Telltale, not the rubbish one.)

[Grand_Finale 529]

I actually have a really good idea for a cannibal zecora. If anyone else doesn't like it we don't have to do it, but it would be pretty interesting in my opinion

[NinjaCPU 270]

Yeah, I'm going to put my two cents on this one. From the looks of it, we're not going to finish this story. The story will end in three possible scenarios. 

 

A) All characters have die from the outbreak. BAD END. 

 

B ) Finding some type of cure. Good End, but a boring ending. Of course if there was some type of stipulation to the cure, such as injection only or only when a pony is turning into a zombie. It might work. 

 

C) Some/or all chracter stay alive, but are always in a state of panic. No matter they killed, they will always come. Trying to break kill each and every one of them. Losing all hope that things will ever change and finally adjust to their new life in post-apocalypse. Normal End. 

 

I also want to say something. When there was that zombie attack in Manehattan. One of us should've of died. Obviously, you can't change the past, but when something that massive is attacking you. There should of been some causality or at least injuries. The reason why is that even in a state of panic if everypony is still alive, it gets boring. It means that the whole group is invincible and the threat of trotters are of no need.

 

Why do you think that People from The Walking Dead are terrified of walkers? Because they know what they can actually do.

 

Just my two cents.

Okay then, from now on, the trotters should be deadlier, more powerful, individually no, but in a horde, maybe at least one person should die in Ponyville. It's just deciding who, because that would mean ejecting them from the roleplay.

[Geek0zoid 1,468]

Okay. Finally back. I hope I didn't miss too much stuff. I was gone WAY longer than I thought I was.

Talks of the Doomsday Clock. Also talks of killing somepony if we ever reach a horde of trotters. It's for the better.(However that was in sign-up not in the roleplay)

I'm imagining a scenario, after whoever it is that dies, dies, then when we're on the train, i imagine this song playing, the first 1 and a half minutes. [click]

So, we're still not clear as to who is gonna die? (If anyone dies?)

Heh. We're just making this stuff up as we go.

JUST FOLLOW MY LEAD I SHALL LEAD OUR STORY ONWARD

If this is meant to be one of those zombie apocalypse roleplay. There should be a few main characters dying. 

 

Carrick is willing to die, but nopony really knows him. So it wouldn't make much of a impact to the roleplay. (Unless someone thinks otherwise.)

If Carrick is going to die at some point, he should at least make a relationship with the others.

Just my thoughts.

GUIZ SRSLY IM GONNA JUST TAKE IVER THE STORYTELLING FOR A BIT

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

We're gonna need a little more than "Step aside Gaiz, i got dis wun." What are you planning Grand, you silly silly mare.

It's a surprise, just let me play out Zecora. It'll be cray cray. Zecoras alive btw, I've made the corporate decision.

No I personally agree with you on that. Most of them see him more as just a detective than a friend. Though, from the looks of it, it might take a while. He's a cold pony. Usually going on objectiveness than subjectiveness. Will take the others to adjust to him, I'd assume.

CAPS IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR FUN. There's no need to get all angry about it. It should happen. This isn't a kiddy roleplay about zombies, because it shouldn't' be. It'd get boring if we continuous keep striving and winning our goals. We already have enough water and food to survive. Everypony doesn't have any complete injuries. It will get boring. I've been doing for this for a long time. I should know. 

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

I've decided, Fire Horn is going to die, mwahahaahaha. When we're getting out of Ponyville, that's when.

Watch this video! No questions just watch this damn video, it's too hillaroius for words to explain.

By the way, I'm not making up rhymes, she lost that trait as if now. I'm no poet don't judge me man

[The Ponyville Critic 304]

How about this? We're in Zecora's Hut, they make the potion, Zecora tries to eat us, Starburst gets bitten, somepony kills Zecora loudly attracting the attention of a lot of trotters, then, Fire Horn decides to distract them by running in the opposite direction from the train, so the others can get away.

 

Whaddaya think?
