[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 630566, member: 1194"] So today Ash starts out questioning me about Nikolai and stats. This would have been a welcome discussion, and after I looked up the Intelligence attribute tonight, I realized that while 1 dot doesn't hamper Nikolai like Ash believes (IMO), I realized that a high Int and not Wits would better fit Nikolai. So I would have changed Nik's Intelligence to better suit him, and address Ash's concerns. That's what reasonable discussion gets you - an exchange of ideas, and a better character in the end. I'm confident that if I'd been able to explain to Ash how Nik is not a physical threat anymore, and my choice of skills, we would have gotten that straightened out with no worries. Now that I've read that Ash has decided to back out, I'd politely ask that he reconsider. I'm serious - Ash, if you read my last post, I'm confident that everyone can see that Kitana basically went off on me, and painted me unfairly, repeatedly magnifying the discussion needlessly. Now I'm purposely phrasing it like that, because EVEN IF SHE DID I HOLD NOTHING AGAINST HER. As she said earlier, she doesn't mind a little row (in character). I don't mind having (out of character) passioned replies about a game that we all care about , even if I'm unfairly painted as a munchkin, attacking fiend who single-handedly destroys roleplay. ;) Ash (and everyone) : for my part, I'm sorry about how this turned out. I don't think Shalimar should be sorry for anything. Ash - with proper distance, I hope you see that calling this game off is a little premature. I'd hope that you change your mind about leading this group, as long as Kitana doesn't have a problem with playing in a game with me. If so, I volunteer to bow out, since I'm obviously perceived as being the only problem, so if I'm gone, why wouldn't you continue for these guys? Please don't leave them high and dry, unless there's some OTHER reason other than my stirring things up to stop the game. What I'd really like to see is how you get the group of different vampires together to do anything as a coterie. I have never seen that in V:tM, and would love if you could get them together and run them thru some scenes where they could work together to accomplish something that vampires care about. I have no idea what that might be, but I've always been baffled about how and why vampires would become a coterie. Just have Nikolai encounter The HeartBreaker tonight, and he won't have ammassed enough power yet to exact his revenge... ;) [/QUOTE]
