Ok, first of all, thank you Vinny for taking up for me, you've been extremely cool to me since we first met, and I'm glad to have a friend like you. And, yes I didn't place a pin in the original post... But, I swear I didn't intentionally break any rules, though I do admit I broke a few. And I'm sure my meaning to or not doesn't matter to Frodo or others, but I promise to any that care that I did try to do this legit. I truly didn't think I was breaking any rules, as, for one thing, I know I've been told about this countless times, but I take the autoplay rule as 'any RPs'.
I think that's what Gladiator was talking about, that regardless of if the thread allows replies or not, it can be put on autoplay. When I go to a thread, I click on the name of the thread on the sidebar, so it goes to the top post, so I don't take into account the people that go straight to the new post. I use autoplay so that I know that people will get the feeling I'm intending for the rp, and as someone said, I did choose the right song for this, IMO. Though, if I can't use them for non matchRP/CD stuff then that's fine, because I'm finally starting to do better, and I want to keep that going.
And I took out Austin's speech, not his actions, but I wrote him how I feel he'd portray his character, just as Vinnie mentioned about Gunn. I had him shown in the most positive light I could, showing his charm and way with the ladies and all that, and I THOUGHT it was actually going to be well received, but it wasn't. I was told on Skype to just take the 'L' but I poured about an hour and a half to two hours into it, and though I didn't need to do that, I wanted to prove myself, and that came to mind.
But it's fine, I'll take the two losses, but I'm just hoping I can turn things around, because the energy I'd been feeling is kinda waning now because the things I try to do are falling flat, and I'm failing. But, I'm not gonna go emo like I did in '13. I'd just like some reassurance that what I'm writing isn't all for nought. But I do stand by my statement that I didn't 'blatantly' ignore the rules.
When I posted both of these, all of that didn't cross my mind, I just go into an rp with a song in mind, and that's what fuels my writing. BTW, Vince, you said you didn't think I was going to win... I know the first one wasn't great and this is kinda off-topic, but was the 2nd any good? I used to be pretty decent with trash talk, but I dunno if it's really anywhere near the level it used to be. What do you think of my writing, and specifically, that area? :^/
P.S.: Tommy, history is a huge indication. Regardless of what anyone says, I know I've come a long way over the years. Tush told me yesterday that I seem to be a lot different from what he was told about from my initial run here. And, frankly, comparing my first run, with all the negative, depressing, self-pitying shit I said and did... and this run, where my biggest issue is autoplay? I think that goes to show something. But take it for what you will.
