John Constantine: I got my Virtual Boy in the mail too today but I didn't get to try it because WAKE UP YOU'RE WORKING
John Constantine: my bosses got me a pizza for coming in though :3
CouncilChao: >​JRM HAS THE VIRTUAL BOY
CouncilChao: my god
CouncilChao: it's full of bad gams
CouncilChao: *games
Gooper Blooper: The Virtual Boy's gams are lovely, thank you very much

(later)

Jumpropeman: I got my Virtual Boy so I'm happy
Jumpropeman: except for the pain on my nose since I play it laying down with the thing on my face
Draco: I don't think that's an approved play position.
Jumpropeman: I bought a discount Virtual Boy that works fine but has a broken stand, and I wouldn't know where to put the stand anyway :V
Jumpropeman: I have a very small room
Draco: You put it on A DESK.
Draco: A TABLE.
Draco: AN ALLIGATOR SNAPPING TURTLE.
Draco: All household objects!
Draco: That you can put a Virtual Boy on!
Jumpropeman: there is no room for such things in JRooM- okay maybe the last one
Bree: why does this virtual boy need a stand? I don't know what one looks like
Bree: is it huge?
Jumpropeman: it's a hefty VR headset but it has no strap or anything to keep it on your head
Jumpropeman: their solution was a stand for a table
Jumpropeman: here's a dude with a Virtual Boy
Jumpropeman: it has a controller you need both hands for too so you can't just hold it
Monopolized Sheep: And here I was hoping it came with a Stand
Draco: I had one when I was a youngster.
Jumpropeman: VIRTUAL BOY [ EYE BURNER ]
RubyChao: damn, 2slow
Jumpropeman: VIRTUAL BOY [ RECOMMENDED 15 MINUTE BREAK ]

ivel: nobody let Samus find out this is a thing

AsteroidDog: do i have to roll
ivel: you have to do a flip instead

---

Monopolized Sheep: I'm going to do a little RP catch up and feel my sins crawling on my back
Monopolized Sheep: "YAYYYYYYY-! Let's play Go! Let's play Go!"
Monopolized Sheep: And then there's this guy

Chatzy Madness Volume 266: There's No Such Thing As Bigfoot

Bree: must..... resist......!

RubyChao: "And Kusamochi, and Kusanagi, and Kabi, and Doc, and Timmy, and-"
RubyChao: things i blocked out
RubyChao: there were like 15 kirbies
Gooper Blooper: harpy had a kirby phase and it was impressive
AsteroidDog: regret

---

RubyChao: enjoy this failure of a boss
RubyChao: i give this thing a boosted tractor and it goes to waste, just like the Golden Torizo
RubyChao: i guess Torizos are just doomed to suck

---

Deviant: I love how venplot is ambiguous enough that it has almost no listings whatsoever just in case it turns out not to be a plot. =u

---

Deviant: Whoooop-sie~
Deviant rolled a die with 21 sides. The die showed: 3
Cornwind Evil: WHOOPS
Deviant rolled a die with 21 sides. The die showed: 11
Draco: Good grief, the tractor really freakin' hates you tonight.
Deviant: That's alright. We're not fighting. I can always put it into Shenanigans, as long as you don't mind. =v
Cornwind Evil: I ROLL FOR VEN
Cornwind Evil rolled a die with 21 sides. The die showed: 1
Cornwind Evil: ....NEVER MIND
Deviant: -Rah explodes-
Cornwind Evil: MOVE ALONG
ivel: I roll for Ven?
ivel rolled a die with 21 sides. The die showed: 19
Cornwind Evil: NOTHING TO SEE HERE

Chatzy Madness Volume 265: I Died, The End

Bree: look at all these brine characters getting pairings
Bree: they're just flying off the shelves!!!!
Murky Sheep: All Brine chars must go!
Bree: clash has a crush on aggie, nylora might have a thing for ingrid, etch is paired up with cole, rory is on a date with toinette, lucky has a thing for priscilla, julius and nasennia have had some shippy undertones...
PhoneDel@Home: Julius is a cinnamon and cannot express his feelings for nobody has explored his sad backstory yet
Murky Sheep: But what about Geth?
PhoneDel@Home: So basically he's a brine character
Polar: Geth is going to pair up with Woe and convince her men ain't so bad, in a twist to shock the ages entirely, along his own path out of hatred.
Polar: *This is not and will not be canon and I will find you if you try, CW. b:
PhoneDel@Home: Also Ko cannot be paired because she is on a soul quest to be the henchest woman alive
Brinehammer: Yeah, really though. Somehow, there's someone for everyone!
Brinehammer: ...except Ko =[
LiveAChao: nobody loves emma, rip
Gooper Blooper: Emma X chainsaw
Harpy: more like emma is too busy RIPing things to care
Harpy: who needs a lover when you have a chainsaw
PhoneDel@Home: Ko seems like a character who ain't got time for that shit

(later)

SteelKomodo: aw man, Brine got 2 pairings(?) in the space of one day
Draco: Three. Ko x Bag of Fritos....oh wait, they just broke up.
LiveAChao: brine is very good at this pairing thing
Brinehammer: Ko x Steak sandwich- nevermind, it was a summer fling.
SteelKomodo: indeed he is
PhoneDel@Home: He is
PhoneDel@Home: Right now to set Julius up
SteelKomodo: hahaha
PhoneDel@Home fails

---

Gooper Blooper: I always thought it was funny that Samus' ship was basically a giant version of her helmet. Like, she wouldn't normally go for that kind of Death Egg-type ego booster, and that makes it even funnier

---

Draco: For better or worse, Zook is now officially gone. Gloria can't summon him because she never could summon HIM. Can't summon Draco either 'cause of Komachi.
LiveAChao: a-a-are you saying
LiveAChao: zook
Draco: is ded
LiveAChao: zook is gone forever!? D:
Draco: Yes.
Draco: He lives on only in our hearts.
LiveAChao: me right now
SickHarpy: zook isn't alive

Chatzy Madness Volume 264: Donuts, The Snack Choice Of EVIL

(Regarding Yew's ghost phobia)

Jumpropeman: you know who else was afraid of ghosts
Jumpropeman: Moosh
Gooper Blooper: Yewsh
Jumpropeman: I know more about that bear than most Zelda characters thanks to Rainbow Dash
Jumpropeman: eke out every bit of detail from the Oracle games to make him more interesting :V
Gooper Blooper: Probably my favorite thing about the JRM sisters entering the Brawl each year is seeing what you do with their characters in the preshow and fite itself
Gooper Blooper: A neat little study in what happens when one gives the fitemaster an essentially blank slate
Gooper Blooper: This reached its' extreme with Blind Scorpion Nun, who was an OC with literally nothing but a name, not even an image
Gooper Blooper: And yet JRM made a whole dang character out of that
Jumpropeman: I was given a wheel and a hill, the rolling with it just comes naturally

---

Harp-A-Live: look at that Angie sass
iKomodo: ...I misread that as Angie's ass
iKomodo: Three years of RP'ing dirk has ruined me

M Sheep: Oh, save me from myself, the college put the mug of the last guy who student directed on the FRONT PAGE of the site.
CouncilChao: oh dear
Gooper Blooper: M SHEEP'S GONNA BE A STAR
CouncilChao: the eldritch true form of the sheep will surely drive everyone away
Gooper Blooper: YOU'LL SEE HIS FACE ON EVERY MAGAZINE
M Sheep: So, good for him, it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Hands up. Good little bit of signal boosting for him since he's either graduating or already graduated. He totally deserves all the best, hard worker, good at what he does, ect.
M Sheep: On the other hand
M Sheep: IT'S JUST SITTING THERE, MOCKING ME
M Sheep blood pressure steadily rising
M Sheep: I'm steadily turning into the Hulk
M Sheep: but with less muscle
M Sheep: so, not The Hulk, basically
Harp-A-Live: sheep slowly turning into Attwater

---

iKomodo: ​From your drawing of Big Money Jo, goops, I didn't realize Jo was generally chubby. I thought it was just all on the booty :P
Draco: Dittos what SK said.
Gooper Blooper: A girl with her stats with all the weight in the booty would probably look kinda ridiculous, lel​
Jumpropeman: thicc
Gooper Blooper: XD
HONK HONK BUTT HONK BUTT: Terrifying thought: 295 pounds of booty, 5 pounds of person
HONK HONK BUTT HONK BUTT: Just a skeleton
HONK HONK BUTT HONK BUTT: With major badonkadonk
Harp-A-Live: pretty sure you'd be dead!

Rejected Characters Depot V

It's time once again to dig through the dregs of my Dropbox and go over some of the characters I've considered bringing into RP, but cut for one reason or another. Will any of these guys ever make it to Zetaboards? It's not likely, which is why they're here instead.

Let's cut to the chase and start showing them off!

Days Gone By: All About Format Wars

How the hell.

How the hell, you guys.

When I first dreamed up an idea for a plot about nostalgia, I had no idea what I was in for. I went into this thing with very loose plans, questionable direction, and very little confidence I could deliver. Instead, I wound up with what seems to be the most well-received of my three plots in Season 6. Not only that, but I got a new main character out of it, who then proceeded to be largely responsible for someone else's character becoming a main, as well as helping enable ANOTHER character who did a lot more a lot earlier than planned. I'd expected a hot mess we'd muddle through and people would be all "yeah good plot, now let's... not do that any more" but I plunged ahead anyway and was rewarded with what Format Wars became.

In fact, Format Wars almost didn't happen. Last winter, due to a lack of direction and confidence, I began considering scrapping the plot and expanding a dayplot about Tiffany into a larger plot to fill the space. What kept me from doing so was the fact that I teased Format Wars at the end of Season 5, in my ending post. Fortunately, the idea to expand Tiffany's plot was part of what helped me get my act together and help Format Wars take shape.

Now that the season's over, I've finally got some time and energy to reflect on this plot (and, later, Sarahplot will get a post as well). Let's go over Format Wars from top to bottom.

Chatzy Madness Volume 263: Gatorade (red)

M Sheep looking at Battlebots
M Sheep: Holy Guacamole, The Brain
M Sheep: i can't get over that there's a brain in this battlebot
M Sheep finally watching it now
iKomodo: Hahaha
iKomodo: oh yeah, there was a competitor in Robot Wars called Draven
iKomodo: it jobbed to hell :U
Jumpropeman: it's funny: The reason I'm wary of Robot Wars is how much the arena and the house bots get involved in the match. But in Battlebots, I'm always like "USE THE FLOOR SAWS PLEASE!"
M Sheep: Oh good lawd, they gave it mini bots
M Sheep: as if the brain wasn't enough

---

ivel: I forgot about the Fitelympics
M Sheep: Fiteloompas here, it would seem
SteelKomodo: yep
M Sheep: Of course it happens when my one athletic character is indisposed
M Sheep Junkos to floor
M Sheep: oh well, she got her chance
EggerChao: father squad attends the dexterity contest
EggerChao: strengths: he was in a war, y'know
EggerChao: weakness: THE CHILDREN
M Sheep: The Father Squad
M Sheep: He's just been a bunch of father's standing on each other's shoulders in a big smock THE WHOLE TIME
ivel: lel

Draco goes on the fishing trip a week early apparently and misses Mulciferplot, letting Zeldoten's fat be a mystery for another week.
Draco: *fate
HotelInternetRopeman: I must know if Zeldoten lost any weight since being captured D:
KnightChao: we will never learn if zeldoten is actually fat
HotelInternetRopeman: to be fair, this was how she looked last we saw her

Jumpropeman: actual boxart for Donkey Kong on the Atari
SteelKomodo: what
Spy: Somebody got confused
Jumpropeman: I gotta wonder what part of the game the "drill cyclops with a mohawk on a moving platform" was inspired by
