HOW'S MY DRIVING?

Comment with the names of the characters you play for feedback on your roleplaying. Other players will then reply to your comment telling you what they honestly think in a constructive manner. While both praise and critique is welcome, we'd like to remind you that this is a valuable tool for many of our members. We'd like to request that all comments remain constructive.

While the staff highly encourages everyone to participate, only comment if you are capable of giving and taking potentially harsh concrit in a mature, level-headed manner. Assume good faith at all times. Crit is meant to be resolved, not "won". Give mutual respect for each other's work and ideas. Aggressiveness creates unproductive stress and conflict. If you are emotionally compromised, you are not fit to captain the Starship Enterprise need to step back, take a break, and then return when you're ready.

Anonymous commenting is ENABLED. Anonymity doesn't detract from the validity of concrit. An anonymous compliment is a compliment; an anonymous crit is still a crit. However, if you are going to post anonymously, consider it your obligation to follow up –– it is frustrating for muns to never get a reply back, and HMD should be first and foremost an ongoing discussion.

We have provided a form to post with, if you would like to use it. Mentioning things like canon points, permanent losses and recent major events in their lives in Paradisa may help give people a better idea of the character's mindset and current actions.

<b>Fandom Name Here:</b> Character Name - <lj user=> <B>Link to HMD:</b> <a href="http://----">Individual HMD Post Here</a> (optional) <b>Loss:</b> <b>Canon Point:</b> <b>Notes:</b> <b>Specific Crit Requests:</b>

Alternatively, you may choose to post a link to your private HMD thread on the character's journal and take comments there instead. The first thread of this post will be reserved for those people, and we will freeze those comments. People will be expected to follow the link to the character's individual HMD to give crit there.

FUTURE PLOTS WITH RIFUL

Always happy to revisit some Dick/Rifulness :D

...oh wow. That's not...crit at all. Not that I have any!

I will make it my business to have Dick tag her next time she posts :)

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

8>c Riful would love to have some Dick in her life /mature

[knightprodigy.livejournal.com]

Everybody needs more Dick in their lives.

There are never enough Dick jokes either.

Keep 'em coming 8D

[arrowonthewind.livejournal.com]

Alleria will keep running ICC over and over until she succeeds. SHE WANTS THAT TITLE, DAMN IT

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

HEY

HEY






it's ICM, missy.

[autophoenix.livejournal.com]

The list of punishments you gave makes me really excited for this because I know with all the different types of heroes in Paradisa, deciding what's humane and what is The Right Way to punish her will cause a lot of conflict and tension. o_o

This is in no way of value but I just ... wanted to say it. Goddamn. ♥ ILU for having plans to get her taken down.

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes B) I apped her with the hope that she could come into Paradisa and change things. She wasn't meant to be an idle, one-time villain. If Paradisa won't deal with her like she's a real problem, then Riful is going to start taking miles instead of inches. The longer they give her to do as she pleases the harder it's going to be for them in the long run!

She's meant to change the way characters deal with villain apathy B) ONE PLOT AT A TIME.

[exanimatus.livejournal.com]

...so you know.

Now that she's gone and scooped up his things, he wouldn't really mind helping the good guys out a little if it means she'd be out of his hair. It'd be really subtle things like... I don't know, being a jerk and ratting her out because they happen to share a lapdog. It really depends on what happens before then, because he's flighty and noncommittal as fuck, but the possibility is still there. :')

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

Oh my god, I would seriously love this. It might work in perfectly with an idea I was tossing around... Outsmarting her or finding tiny things like this are just the way you need to go about taking her down. I would love something like this to happen.

MY DREAM SCENARIO:

[bogusmagic.livejournal.com]

:|a I haven't been involved with the Riful stuff at all (woes, what is that), but I wanted to say that I think just killing her would be a piss-poor way of taking her down. I'd really really like to see something long term that would... idk, be more appropriate/have more consequences than just a two week vay-cay. I don't think I'd be saying this if characters in Para tended to take death more seriously, but such as it is.

+1

[encourage]

Especially since characters have pounded it through skulls that death isn't permanent and I don't think we've seen anything to show inconsistencies with death? We don't even generally have death-drops, so it becomes the logistics of trying to figure out a way to keep Riful alive but contained.

Which I think could be really cool! I'd love to see characters come together to figure something like that out, to figure out more long term ways of handling villains, since aside from jokes about "no kill" policies or the like, Paradisa as a whole does need to shake out of that apathy of "sure we can kill them and that handles them for two weeks and then they're back as good as new and killing them gets that much harder but we should probably try again anyway since how else are we keeping someone ridiculously strong in check?"

Which isn't just a Riful thing either! It's more a villain thing, and what I really like is that I think villains can win in Paradisa, and also that players can allow the heroes/neutrals/normals to also win, over time, without destroying each other's fun.

Which is an exceedingly long winded way of saying I would love to get involved in the future with Sakura and also that I agree with creative solutions, as death has not as of yet been in any way a really... good? Or even scary? Solution. UNLESS I MISSED THINGS which is entirely possible.

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

Mm! I know that the Fifth Doctor brought up that he'd heard people had been debating locking her up and starving her? And recently Akihiko and I think Teresa were mentioning the PP's de-powered cells. Was there anything else brought up?

Don't forget Arthas either--did we have an update on what people were thinking of concerning Frostmourne?

[wornbright.livejournal.com]

i don't see killing as a viable option or a clever one. then again, we have many anti-killing characters they will also step up and say NO to that option.

IMPORANT

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

Lawd can't believe I forgot this--

a week

[encourage]

At the least, just for OOC coordination reasons. Depending on how involved any such take-down might end up being, maybe more than a week? Unless it goes the ninja surprise way which could be hilarious but -- presuming it doesn't, at least a week to coordinate people/things OOCly to help smooth it out ICly and/or account for folks who would be around ICly but might be unable to OOCly at the time. WORK IN THE ANGLES I wrote angels the first time

/works the angels into here!!!

a month

[sworn]

Plots that are as grand and elaborate as final take-down fights need much more planning than just a week. It needs time for people to consider how heavily they want to be involved, and see if they can arrange to be there when it happens.

ALSO so that no one else plans a loss/event around the same time and we wind up with too much all at once.

ARTHAS

[lionbeforelambs.livejournal.com]

Oh I should probably put something here.

Dolly pretty much said all of the important stuff, but just to follow up, I have similar feelings in regards to Arthas' takedown. I have absolutely zero issues with death or any other sort of consequence, but I feel the need to stress that it sometime in the future, be it OOCly or amongst residents. The longer these two are left alone, the more ballsy they're going to get.

We have at least one character here capable of completely locking him down without killing him, but one thing that the residents need to remember is that if death isn't the chosen route.

I have a fairly in depth analysis of Frostmourne itself (what can and can't be done with it) and what will happen in several scenarios on his wiki (http://paradisa.wikia.com/wiki/Arthas_Menethil#Frostmourne). I highly highly recommend taking a look at it if you're not familiar with the canon and want to get involved in the future! If there's anything you're curious about that isn't listed there, perhaps another way of dealing with the issue that I haven't thought of, feel free to ask me here! I'll more than likely have an answer for you.

And if I don't...well, good! We'll all figure it out, then. :)

As Dolly already said, .

[jammin-with-ed.livejournal.com]

I haven't had any immediate CR with Riful, so I can't really offer much crit... HOWEVER!!

I'd like to offer up Eleven to help take her down and Nora or Darien for getting kidnapped.

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

HUHU 8> I will make a note of this~! Many minds = good things--I look forward to seen Eleven *_*

[chaosphiliac.livejournal.com]

aaaa you know i'm willing to throw whoever at you to get involved. ♥ so if you want someone to get kidnapped or team up with her or w/e.

well bro. ;) come at me.

[cricketycricket.livejournal.com]

AHAHA, I need to hit you up on AIM sometime soon about if/when/how we want Five's plan to go down... :D

Also, I would loooove for Ray to get some CR with her, as well.

[nishimono.livejournal.com]

THERE NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT 8>

Re: FUTURE PLOTS WITH RIFUL

[notjamesbond.livejournal.com]

I seriously need more Tesla and Riful tag times. Seriously.

/isn't helpful

Anyways, Tesla would probably be forced to work with her? I mean, he does see her as an ally, albeit a very creepy one, but he does keep his best interests in mind. He might betray her because that's the jerk that he is, but other than that, he would be on her side for the most part.

/becomes helpful? :D
