Confessions and Questions - or what I've been doing for the last four months.

[Shotaro]

So, yeah, I'm back.

Ask me stuff, I'll do my best to answer - Ask me Anything (within reason)!

Yes, I've been invisible for four months. I've read every show, I've read almost every RP and the only person I've repped that wasn't in the know was Crock. I lied to Pancake like two weeks ago, I played dumb when talking to JGlass on skype. I hope I had people fooled that I really was done and not coming back.

Anyway, questions. come at me bro!

Congrats on covering it up so well, it was a nice surprise.

Sorry, no questions.

Thanks, I figured when I left that I knew when I was coming back at the latest. I remember last year's lottery (and this years to be fair) the guys who were returning were either seen logged in and mentioned or just posted in the thread and their return was really obvious (I actually managed to predict every return this year because everyone posted from out of nowhere - except Ty Burna, whose return was really heavily foreshadowed - the music that was used was what really gave the game away though, which was a shame.)

Pssssh. I saw this coming a mile away.

 

[Shotaro]

Sorry man, needed to do it.

Pssssh. I saw this coming a mile away.

I would hope so, or you're a terrible member of creative. You all suck massively anyway but it would make you the worst.

Hi.

 

[Shotaro]

Hi.

Hey Coco. Hows things?

EDIT: Damnit, you're supposed to be asking ME questions!

 

[Viola Moonlight]

Still don't know how you did it; being invisible and not-interactive with the forums at all... who'd you do it?

I assume you mean how. With great difficulty to be honest it wasn't bad at first, hell I lurked for a year before I started posting properly. It got difficult once All or Nothing happened and you posted the schedule. As the days went by it got really difficult. I was practically twitching when the show got delayed - it was like psychological torture man.

Were you having the same problem where you wanted to red rep everything Thrash posted in the WZCW section, but didn't want to tip your hand?

 

[Kermit]

Welcome back buddy.

not EVERYTHING, though some things, I think there were points where I wanted to rep a few people (with red or green rep) but couldn't - I only repped Crock because I figured he'd likely seen me about at some point so it didn't matter.

Welcome back buddy.

Thanks furry man, now get your butt back to yiffing miss Piggy

 

[Beastmode 24]

So uhhh...,

Sorry for the whole "breaking your neck" thing.

 

[Bernkastel]

I knew about the plan as it was discussed while I was still on creative. Mods and admins can see you regardless if you're invisible or not, so Crock and Killjoy both could have noticed something if they looked and connected the dots.

Other than that how was your vacation?

 

[The Crock]

Mods can't see invisible posters.

 

[Bernkastel]

Mods can't see invisible posters.

O rly? It must be G-mods and admins then. IIRC invisible posters should have a purple circle in place of their online/offline tab - of course this is based off info circa 2008.

 

[JGlass]

Congratulations on being one of the few people that managed to not raise the alarms regarding your return. You played it very cool, and for that I applaud you, sir.

 

[IHW]

Welcome back.

Where do you want Jacobs to be come KC?

 

[The Crock]

Shotaro's James Howard, not Derek Jacobs.

Welcome back, pal.

 

[Skairipa Matrix]

Seriously well done on the surprise return man.

Are you worried about having RP rust after such a long break?

 

[a0161613]

Surprise return, psh....

Dude, we need to catch up.

 

[Shotaro]

So uhhh...,

We'll discuss it - my fists need practice before the next time Grand Mystique tries something clever...

Oh dang, I forgot - well then that means that 10 people excluding myself knew I was coming back. In other news, there have been 10 unique members of creative since Christmas and will be 11 soon. Geez, I thought teaching had a high staff turnover...

The break was good, gave me time to get my stuff together. As the break went on and my return approached it became increasingly difficult to shake the thought of "oh fuck it, people have probably guessed already" and not post. The week since Sunday has been awful though, I've been itching to come back all week.

Welcome back.

Where do you want Jacobs to be come KC?

I would like Jacobs, well, spoilers... Don't sweat not knowing who I am by the way - I know you weren't around in the fed when I left previously.

Shotaro's James Howard, not Derek Jacobs.

Welcome back, pal.

It's good to be back Crock, thanks for not giving the game away when I repped you a few months back - I knew if people knew I was invisible they would be suspicious. I even waited fifteen minutes after my last post before pressing the button to save it.

Seriously well done on the surprise return man.

Are you worried about having RP rust after such a long break?

I do have it, I know I do. At the same time returning characters at the lottery typically do very well and I didn't want to jeopardize the story by pulling something out of the bag. I shot for inclusion and succeeded. My RP was terrible, to be honest, but it served it's purpose.

Surprise return, psh....

Dude, we need to catch up.

I know man, hows things? Why did you change your name from a word to leet speak by the way? also I don't think AOIBIBIE is a word....

 

[IHW]

Damn Spoilers.

I know who you are from reading some of Mikey's stuff. He kept you alive, man.

 

[Dirk]

I love spoilers, they make your rear-wheel drive Cortina go super fast!
