(WARNING: POTENTIAL HOMESTUCK SPOILERS BELOW!)
(I think)
Ooookaaay... The description said that this was the board to go to for questions, both for for RP and Forum ones.
Good. Because I've got both. Mostly ones of the former.
I'll divide them up for convenince's sake.
Spaced for ease of reading.
(My apologies in advance. Not many good experiences RPing. Want to make sure that I've got all my bases covered, knowing which stuff's flexible and which stuff isn't.)
~~~~~~
RP:
I recall reading something about alt-Earths. What are the acceptable limits on these? And does "A world where Andrew Hussie made Homestuck" fall within those limits? Because I don't think I've seen any.
Are "Clueless Dreamers" permitted? A "Clueless Dreamer" would be someone like Jade, who managed to enter her Dreamself prior to entering the Medium. Clueless Dreamers, most of the time, will either say "What's Sburb?" or "Isn't Sburb that game coming out in a couple of months?", they haven't really started their sessions yet. Hence the 'Clueless'.
How, exactly, do Captchalogue systems work? I mean... Are the cards just floating behind you? Can you manipulate them? Or what? I know that [Eject] launches an item from your Sylladex. Okay. Where from?
Are there Captchalogue codes that remain static between sessions? Or would, say, entering 11111111 into a Punch Designix give you a code for "Empty Captchalogue Card" in one session, and "Nuka Cola" in another?
What are the limits on freestyling abilities?
Can a character be glitched? I'm not talking something like having a glitched Aspect/Title or Angel/Other Corruption, I mean something like a second Session Knight still hearing the Beat of Space from his original Session when he was a Bard of Space, or passive abilities carrying over like that one guy with 22 strife specibus cards.
How much can the mechanics from one Sburb session differ from those of another?
Dream Bubbles... Can I get some info on those? Also, is chatting with Doomed Timeline versions of Homestuck characters okay?
Are Original Aspects permitted? I'm not talking, like, a whole new paradigm of them, I mean just one.
Saccharine Dopplegangers... What? Okay, I remember seeing that in the Glitch FAQ, problem is, I only saw a brief mention of them, towards the bottom of one of the earlier chapters, and the chapter dedicated to it is --OFFLINE--. What, exactly, are these?
Is the Sburb Character Creation Guide related to this in any way?
Has anyone in an RP made a Captcharoid Camera? Are they permitted? Or are they just considered cheap? You'd think that'd be on every vet's loadout.
How would one go about assigning costs to Alchemizing items? I have difficulties with the middle ground, as either it's really cheap and only in Build Grist, or really expensive, and taking like, eight separate types of Grist to make.
How, exactly, is everyone in-character connecting to the forums?
Can a session be stuck in a time loop? I'm not talking the stable ones involved in Time Shenanigans, I'm talking Groundhog's Day ones.
Okay, assume a moment the players of a session aren't Paradox Clones. Assume they proceed to do the Ectobiology thing successfully. How would that turn out?
Echeladders... Huh? Okay, what all do these do? Besides increasing Grist Limits, Gel Viscosity, and providing a Boondollar bonus, I mean.
Imps, can they talk? I'm talking stuff like the Imps and Ogres. Not the Carapaces. On that note, are Imps technically Carapaces?
Okay, what, exactly, does 'Native' mean? Is that what you were in your first Session? Or is that the Role/Title you are most proficient in?
If/When I make a character, can someone help me with a Chumhandle for him? I... Ah... I'm not exactly the best with names.
Replayers... When they enter a new Session, do they take over another player's body? Or do they simply... Appear? Also, does anyone else notice in either case? Like "Mom? Who's the guy in Jim's room? And where'd Jim go?" or "Wow, Jim sure is acting strange, lately.".
Exactly how much of a power boost does God-tier grant? Was Jade a special case, or can all Space players shrink entire planets whilst in God-tier?
...What, exactly, causes a Timeline-doomed character to become timeline-doomed?
============
Board:
Who's who. Any admins/notorious players I should know about?
Reporting, assume someone's being a jerk. Any way I could report him?
How do I set up my text color? How would I decide it, anyway?
Pictures, what are the restrictions on 'em?
