Cutting Room Floor

If I would have gotten a pokeball at the beginning, assuming been in DA, and I had been very active the entire time, and I had allied myself with the Ice Climbers, how would I have fared?

[Proto Man]

...There are Ice Climbers?!

Clearly you would have killed everyone before Day 2 ended.

[Blackfire]

1. How far could I have gone if I was more active, based on the quality of my RP's?

2. Had I not ran into Ambrosia at the start, do you think I could have lasted longer in the game, and how much longer?

[Proto Man]

1. Could have easily pushed into the top 25, maybe further depending on whether or not you could have built up any momentum (staying active and staying good)

2. Based on your kind of sporadic rping, you probably could have lasted into the top 35/30.

[Darth Vader]

Could I have made it to the finale if I didn't go to that last EE?

[Proto Man]

You would have died when New Babylon fought with Samus and Gild.

[Vulre Oakenlimb]

What would have happened if the marines rendezvoused in the Lighthouse, rather than the murderfest that was the Clinic?

[Proto Man]

You guys would have gone pretty well, and probably could have made it into the Top 20 or Top 15. You certainly would have been one of the strongest groups (in terms of character interaction and wouldn't have felt stiched together out of necessity).

I know I said this to Tart, but it hurt my insides to have to kill you guys off, because I think all of you didn't start hitting your strides until you were all knockin' on Heaven's door.

I really like this thread.

That aside though, me and one of the New Babylon groups (Gil, Jon, Blackfire) were thinking about teaming up (as you know) after Hamus beat me up and took my lunch money. And the lunch. Assuming I hadn't gone to the meeting point too early where I got killed by Jak, would I have placed higher or get killed off in the first F2F anyway?

[Proto Man]

It would have depended on the fight, but post-Hamus, you could have survived one or more fights. In that group you mentioned, you probably would have survived at least two fights, since you probably would have lived passed Blackfire (barring any sort of activity surge from Bfire).

You were a solid writer, you just had some shit luck.

[Mami Tomoe]

Ooh, me next! Me next! Pick me! *Raises hand*

I know my two main mistakes were... Erm... Moving up, and then moving down. Because Ambrosia happened when I went up, and then Jason happened when I went down. My biggest mistake, I know for sure, was trying isolationism and thinking it would work. Having bad luck factored into things too with the spork, but honestly, I was pretty sure I was gonna get it from the moment I saw it.

Seeing as I met up with Sasuke at one point, I think there was a possibility I could have made it pretty far. But I'd imagine I would end up sacrificing myself for him if things went bad regardless. Factoring that in, had Jason decided not to pull a Charlotte on Mami, how far might she have gone? At least, what do you think could have happened? I'm positive something would have screwed up farther down the line, but.

[Proto Man]

Your major fault was that you didn't really post a whole lot.

Had you been slightly more active, you still could have had that run-in with Ambrosia and not been TOO screwed up, which would have allowed you to live through that F2F at the dinner.

Paired with Sasuke and pending some activity, you could have made it a lot further, as his group was pretty... 'tame' in terms of testing the map and getting into scrapes. You probably could have made it to the Furbee Easter Egg.

[Jim Raynor]

If I had stayed low and avoided the early F2F's, how far could I have gone?
