UHM SO I HAVE A PROBLEM

Nov 08, 2010 18:00

SO
I had this crazy idea while talking to someone
about a pokedex.
That has an AI so advanced you'd SWEAR it was human.
Well that's probably because it IS based on a human.
This particular human has pretty much disappeared to all that wish to find him.

The fun twist that I wasn't sure I wanted to say, but is that that human bugged this pokedex so he ( Read more... )

help me out dammit, y/n/stfu/wtf?

So TL;DR are you asking if it's okay to bring in a distorted Pokedex with the whole BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU premise and who belongs to a trainer off-island?

Is it too farfetched of an idea?
My first idea was just having an AI pokedex, but I don't know if that really counts as a character. :/ Then when adding more I've made it too complicated, haven't I?

Admittedly, I'm not sure whether to give the go-ahead or not. On one hand the whole HAI GUISE I CAN SEE YOU BUT YOU CAN'T SEE ME HA HA HA SUCK ON THAT idea could prove for massive lawls and WTF and all around good times for the muns but not the characters.

On the other hand there's the fact that it's not a human character or a Pokemon. Also with Awesome Island characters do not know about it until he/she/it/nuke physically gets there themselves. Should they find a way off he/she/it/nuke either forgets about their experiences completely or, in very rare cases, remember them but due to the islands nature find it impossible to talk about it. You were probably unaware of that and because of that I do apologize; I am working on a revamped explanation of the island's demographics as the first one was too plain and left too many questions unanswered ( ... )

Yeah I agree with this. No one is supposed to be aware of or know of the Island unless they're actually on it, so it'd be weird he was transmitting a signal through wherever he was. It'd be better if your OC was hiding somewhere on the Island being a hilarious creeper.

All right, hi there - sorry I'm a bit late to the party, but Mod #2 has finally shown up, good evening ( ... )

Hello!

Alright, I understand. That was an odd thought in the first place to wonder about including him but not here, but I understand it now that ya'll have helped explain.

Like I said above, I think for this moment I'm going to pull back and regroup about this idea.
But would this device be alright, if theoretically it had a 'post of it's own' but was initiated by the hidden human?

Actually, I've discussed it with Vyck and we've agreed that after the revisions you've mentioned, it should be good to go! Thanks for taking the time to consider it, actually - it makes everything run much more smoothly when people are willing to cooperate and consider other options. Thank you for being so reasonable and polite about this whole thing, as well as, again, for taking the time to consider what's been suggested and finding ways to expand on it ( ... )

It would just be all kinds of confusing and unfair to everyone if I just popped in and made up things that could mess with other people too much. :< I am playing WITH other people, so it's not good to mess them up.

I think I will be back soon, I just need to refine my OC some in how I'm going to present someone who is hiding, and find someone who will want to play with the shiny new purple pokedex before I leave it out there and no one wants it, thus loosing it's purpose.

Oh lol no, I've only played one character who's not gotten past his intro. I read how the general mechanics worked, but I didn't really look too far into it as it wasn't pertinent for him.
I-I neglected to mention who I was incase you were all NOTHAT'SDUMB. /s-sob nolongerarival, Nina.
And I said I was on hiatus, so I feel like trying to start this is cheating, but it wouldn't leave me alone.

Okay so I don't really have anything else to say that other people haven't said, but I must say that I find this idea really fascinating enough to pull me out of the woodwork aaaaa, especially with these little corrections you've been working out with everyone. I can't wait to see how it'll all work out!

Not to mention I'm completely convinced that your pup and this guy's totally sentient Pokedex will be best friends.
