Just as a way to liven up participation. The Mages have their war room, and since the Ninja RP is meant to be separate from the Guild Wars RP, I thought we'd might as well have a place to organize our thoughts. I would just hate to see Shino's plan for winning collide head on with mine simply because we don't know what the other is planning. And in a way that is good, but to an extent that cannot happen. So, acting under the assumption that all of us here are loyal to the Ninjas alone ( ), let us begin ^_^

Well... I still have no clue why 'I' called the whole thing. XD Except for a vague idea that they all get there and then I leap out and go "SURPRISE!" and shower balloons and confetti on everyone. Which would be sort of pathetic.
So. Ideas for why Fj0rd would participate with the pirates, and call the mages and Knights to a meeting, would be good... ^^

xD Because Shinobi clearly needs a partner in crime. or something. My question is - is this RP supposed to be just a "war-zone" RP or an actual "someone's gonna win this war" RP? Well obviously, Fj0rd has no intention of cooperating with the pirates - but those pirates are so gullible they'll believe and do anything - which includes walking into a ginormous set-up... Or something. And the ninjas call the mages and the knights because Pete's Pest Removal is currently out of business. No sense getting our hands dirty ^_^

I dunno, I think it would be funny if there was actually a reason for the pirates to participate with us. Whether or not we were making it all up. ^_^ So then we could fight the mages and knights, or something.
Because if this is a war then the mages and knights need to have a side to take... and right now there are a lot of pirates who are mages or knights as well. So we need to do something to get the mages and knights on our side, or on their own sides, or on anyone's side. Right now they seem like neutral parties, sort of, except for the ones who are also pirates or ninjas.

I think the mages are muchly cool Reason for Pirates to work with us... Well, we'd have to have a common enemy or a common goal, and I think common enemies hold out much better because eventually we'd have to fight each other for the goal So! Let's frame one of the other guilds for something devious and lower and scummier than pirates. OH let's make this highly ironic and frame the Knights for it

Hmmm and according to the way the RP is going, Shinobi has already betrayed them. Sorta. Wonderful - that would be useful ^_^ It sort of annoys me how the knights follow him around like little lapdogs >_> "Yes my lord," "No my lord," "Three bags full, my lord." HA MAKE SHINOBI ORDER THEM TO DO SOMETHING! It would have to be highly concealed and they would have to believe they were doing good! And it would be even better if they thought they were doing good until the very end. "Ridding the world of evil white weewoos, who stole the Lord Shinobi's snow-white kerchief from under his nose." And in the end they wave the white kerchief because they finally win it back - and inadvertantly surrender And what bugs me about RP is that there are no secrets - whatever "secrets" there are, everyone knows about, and everyone all of a sudden just happens to suspect something in the next moment. Takes all the fun out of sneaking around

It's a ninjas job to know things. Especially when their very experienced. ! My main goal for the Guild Wars, besides an ironic unity, was so that the plot could be mixed-matched and changed around. Right now my character is trying to figure out what Fj0rd's doing. I'm sorry we all dumped a load on you fro a big mastermind plan too, Fj0. Kind of harsh on our part. Oh, and Shadow if you could not say my role in the Knights like it's a bad thing...That would be helpful. I was a well-liked Knight in the KONTWF's former role-play so that may have something to do with their loyalty & honesty (mostly) towards me. That and all Knights of the Castle must keep integrity and submit when a higher authority commands. Even if they don't like it. That's probably why their going to rush after me anyways... That's it!!! The Knights rush after me and see "signs of war" with the pirates coming and start battling. That would be a good plot. That or the Ninjas could plan absolute domination. Which would be totally out of their character, but if all else fails that's a contingency plan.

Apologies, Shinobi - I wasn't insulting your role, but simply cannot understand the servantile attitude of the Knights.
A rogue knight would pique my interest greatly ^_^

Mmkay. Hm. Random idea for how this might work: - everyone gets there - one ninja (me? Since Rider decided I wrote the note...) steps up and says, the Knights did thus-and-such, and presents proof - everyone goes crazy - ninjas defend themselves from Knights (who will want to disprove it) and also attempt to silently and quickly take out pirate leaders (and maybe Knight and mage leaders too? Depending). - mass chaos?
Or something like that. Because if no one gives an idea, then we won't have anything to work off of.

And then find a new scapegoat and a new reason to attack another guild C: There are soooo many people in more than one guild. Not everyone can be the dreaded double-crosser I wonder if we could twist it so that those in more than one guild could run into trouble (or rather, more trouble than they already have for serving opposing guilds ^_^). What is this? Everyone's popping up with war rooms. That business must be booming. Should have kept the patent

What is this? Everyone's popping up with war rooms. That business must be booming. Should have kept the patent Even though you took the idea from the Mages...? XD Yes, the short-term goal is everyone against the Knights, but what's our reason for doing that, then? Did they really do what we said they did, or are we just trying to get everyone to attack the Knights for some reason, and in that case, what's our reason? The most people-in-more-than-one-guild are pirates who are mages and knights, judging by the signups... so pirates against mages, or pirates against knights, or mages against knights, would be the most interesting.

Shhh. It was Ikkin's patent and I pilfered it from her xD Do we really need a reason? 0_0 We're ninjas. We kind of take command of fate and stuff. God mod and the like, except with more stealth ^_^ kidding. Pirates against knights Those with no honor vs those with all honor? hmmm ^_^ How about the Ninjas just got bored one day and decided to cause some mayhem? You DO have SHADOW in your ranks, after all. I like keeping the mages on our friendly side. It's easier to use them thataways C:

I suppose. XD I like justifying things, though.
Ooh! And Frozen's post on the guild wars roleplay might be playing right into our hands. Arrows are not what we've been using as communication devices, after all... so who else wants the Knights to come to Tabloid Town?

xDDD People are very bad at not-knowing what they're not-supposed-to-know xDDD So much for Shinobi's secret getaway. Hmmm maybe we could cause a civil war within the ranks of the Knights... pit them against one another, and then some of them against each of the other respective guilds for various nonsensical reasons Ah, all this speculation, and yet no way (that i know of ) to carry it through. Again, people are very bad at not-knowing what they're not-supposed-to-know.
