Even with our merger with Awakening still on the books there is no reason not to keep the plot rolling (and indeed both members new and old seem keen to do so), so without further ado lets take a look at our current tournament plot. This thread will work as both a discussion area and a vote, meaning any new options mentioned by you guys can be added to the poll . Currently I've got up a few options that have been brought to the table, and have allowed everyone to pick two. ---- To get the ball rolling, I'm personally a fan of starting our little upset with Oguma - he makes for good villain material and has the power(and temperment) to flip the tournament on it's head, demanding worthy challengers or he'll destroy the tournament grounds or some such. Everyone can unite against him(or, if you're so inclined, team up *with* him), and it provides a good excuse for our new members to leap in such as Reiko and Chiva, while giving justification for the inactive members leaving. Problem there of course is that Oguma is quite a tough cookie when no longer limited by the tournament rules Which is why I think as awesome second course would be to have our saiyans (Currently Pieter and Chiva) go great ape and begin rampaging mid way though. Given the power levels this would mean Oguma would face a worthy challenger(Ape-Pieter), and we would have to essentially 'team up' with him to stop these Oozaru. but that's just what I vote for, what about you guys and girls? Any cool ideas? Further thoughts? Additional poll options?

Ok, so I got 2 votes: The saiyans go great ape and something else, a combination sort of deal.
The saiyans would turn great ape still, that part I very much enjoy. Whilst we're rampaging at the tournament, Oguma could start setting the scene some more (if it's within character of Oguma, of course). How it's done is all dependent from there.

I say full moon, maybe even make it an artificial one as a plot of the sailor solar empire as definaince to the counsel and start a war. The saiyans are definitely a bigger threat than Oguma by himself unless there's minions of his planned. And if the giant ape rampage is short lived, it can be the catalyst for Oguma going nuts if we really (and he, since he apparently has had his doubts on the subject) wants to go that route.
I like the royale thing too, and it could also be a lead in after the full moon if the Oguma thing doesn't happen, a way of continuing the tournament after it being interrupted, and with the finalist decided to be whoever fought back the the saiyans and maybe the saiyans themselves too.

I agree this idea is well suited to SEE, issue is Saiyan Solar Empire currently has no members XD Started off with King Zasho and Jeska as official Saiyan Empire people, with Kashu as another saiyan of similar temperament, but the first two ended up heading out and haven't heard much from Kashu recently. ((I personally am also against Plot NPCs or indeed admin-dictated plots in general, they're kinda decremental to the 'player driven' experience Souls represents which is where, for me atleast, most of the real fun comes from.)) The 'intergalactic' part of this conference has shifted somewhat, which is indeed what prompted the earlier poll on how to proceed with souls and why we're doing this now to have some fun and see where things go. Personally, I fully expect we can run with this plot, enjoy any twists and turns, wrap up the 'tournament saga', and then take our characters over to awakening to RP our characters with those guys. ((Since I don't think we want to make the mistake of leaving things too late and letting this group we have fall off, cause I enjoy hanging out with you guys )) However, since this is player driven, anyone could leap in and instigate plot, Oguma is on the poll simply because he seems to have the presence and inclination to make a better splash . It would be up to him *how* he goes about this 'attack', maybe he'd want everyone to fight him at once, maybe he'd take over the tournament's running and demand a battle royal to decide his challenger, maybe he's simply going to try blowing everything to smithereens. Same goes for any Ape action. Anything could happen within our chosen scenarios, we're essentially voting on 'will their be a full moon', but it's up to individuals in the moment to influence how it will play out. ((as indeed if our saiyans don't want to go ape well then they could try to avoid looking at the moon for example))

Oguma or full moon, it matters not. The end result will still be awesome cause in reality we could have both. No one has the power to stop either if both were to occur. However, it would be hella fun to see Oguma handle some great apes or something only to then tell everyone that they are FU*KED!!! lol either one is okay with me

Personally I think the 'neatest' way for it to go would be: > Oguma does his villian thing, chaos ensues, everyone steps up to stop him > All hope seems lost as Oguma unleashes his full power (and can rightly be assumed to kick ass) > Everyone prepares to meet their maker when: **moon rises** > Now Oguma has a real challenger, shaky truce as we face this new threat > Unstoppable force meets unmoveable object - apes stopped and Oguma too injured to carry out further villiany. Logical conclusion to saga, and conference lies in ruins But up to you guys in the end, that's just a suggested progression from me (as a fellow member) Either way, since it seems we're pretty well decided and there's no time like the present- this thread is open so lets all head down to here and use it as the beginning of saga-happenings: wodsouls.freeforums.net/thread/390/centurial-conference-call-saga-openPost your entrances or general reactions to what's going on so far, so we can get a proper feel for head count. Sorry to crash your thread Reiko, but you did make it open Offshoot threads or progressional threads can be made as needed depending on how things play out, but for now all aboard! ((and Oguma ol' buddy ol' pal! Seems we have a positively 'inspiring' example of tournament 'rule-breaking' going on there, you're already pretty angry about being denied a proper match and now these two are essentially cutting in line... you just gonna take that man? ))

(Also, if Oguma can sense, he REALLY should be enticed to come over... )

No, I'm perfectly fine with it, actually.
