Actually, I planned on naming it along the lines of G3nerations, as the villain I have lined up was created by Richard before he became the Godmodder as a safeguard. He also split up his personality so that he wouldn't accidentally have created another one of him. This one was ambition, and ended up killing and absorbing his "sibling's" coding to recombine the personality to make another Godmodder. He currently is at 19 out of 24, counting himself.
Also, COA, that is quite correct. I did come from the TVT thread.
OK, big problem with that. By which I mean, this is not only contradictory to DTG canon (Richard would simply never have the time for an operation THIS complex until DTG3 itself, which would naturally be long after most of those games are done; Alpha is already a split personality himself and doubtlessly would not want to deal with more), but also would definitely be out of player hands, as that implies a power level far beyond what a player should rightfully possess. As a GM, I believe this bit of weirdness is basically enough to warrant you to change your own backstory. Like, now.
It's also basically not gonna be DTG3. Primarly because Richard's story, if he's still alive, still needs wrapping up in a big way, but also because quite frankly I do NOT want the GM of any game to have their own main RP characters to have a particularly high influence on the plot, especially not DTG3, which is basically gonna be the be-all-end-all of the main DTG series no matter what. (I mean, technically that's impossible, but what I'm saying is the plot you have, as it stands, is basically exclusively that, whist every other example still focused on the Godmodder and the other threats present enough to not be plot-tumor level.)
Well yeah, you only inflict multi-turn death on someone for doing something INCREDIBLY stupid while simultaneously pissing off the GM AND other players. either that or if they know beforehand that something of the like is going to happen. You just have to remember to let people continue charging while their dead and suddenly the difficulty spike from it becomes much less aggravating.
Also, tazz, I just want to say...
Roxanne cutting the Mainframe in half?
Seriously? I think if we took a vote on that, it could be considered seriously NON CANON because even GODS don't have the natural lifespan required to take a ship that size and slice it in half with a hacksaw, and that's IF the Mainframe didn't already have capacitors to prevent time-stop shenanigans being used against it.
Engie, your thoughts on learning about this?
I wouldn't be chewing you out, but seriously dude, you've chewed me out for things not nearly as absurdly power scale breaking, and something like that sets a dangerous precedence, even if nobody in terraria read through your posts thoroughly enough to realize what you were doing, eventually, someone will, and they'll use it to throw EVERYTHING out of whack.
Other than that, seriously dude, the stuff you've been pulling is pretty sweet. Two thumbs up to your chaos.
Four, possibly five justifications: A, Roxxanne was exploiting several alchemies to really speed up the process. B, Roxxanne is a cheating filthy Archsue. C: For all of its power, Engie hadn't bothered to put a single point in charge in it (no offense to him), which by my standards of character killing/screwing with, is basically equivalent to a paper towel in its defensive worth. For contrast, If I tried pulling that on Grayhold (which historically actually DID have a lot of charge going into defending it, and explicitly just for such a thing), Roxxanne would be torn to tiny particles and have her soul fuel some kind of arcane fireplace. D, we agreed upon Roxxanne raiding an alternate timeline. E, most of that was done while Terraria was noncanon, my intention being that it basically wouldn't matter ever anyways.
There is one other reason, but until Engie outright says he really wants to hear it I'm going to not say as it could come off as rude. I really don't want to bring up this particular argument AGAIN, so I'm leaving it there.
That's actually impossible. Going by that math she stole 1 1/2 of a mainframe. And that's terrible.
Roxxanne accidentally alchemized a whole Mainframe (long story), and the rest of it was stealing half of the current one, thereby giving her one-half. Thus, three halves. If Engie is to be believed, it can biologically regenerate, so she may have effectively stolen two mainframes, even.
@final: I mean just a godmodder. Here's the backstory. Basically, he made my character's group as something to fight others like him, and gave 24 animated suits of armor (each named after a letter of the Greek alphabet) a piece of his own personality, so that he didn't make another one of himself. I should probably introduce the current ones.
I'm Alpha. It's good to meet you.
I'm Beta. 'Sup?
Hey. I'm Gamma. Wanna hear a knock-knock joke?
I thought we were finally done with that. I am Delta. Hold on for a moment. There is less than a 20% chance that they're going to answer you, you know.
Shut up with your damn calculations, mirror-face. Oh, I'm Omega. And who invited Sigma?!
I invited myself, Mega! They deserve to know who I am! After all, I'm going to be the villain if this all goes through. Heheheh...
Again, really don't want to do this. ON that note: Alpha is the name of the Godmodder in the TvTropes session, and Omega-aka Richard-is the name of the person he SPLIT from in the first place. He probably really wouldn't allow for that.
He mentioned a different godmodder, to be fair. However, I think DTG3 should be an ending to Richard's story, rather than bringing in someone else.
Also, I'd go out on a limb and say that Terraria shouldn't be Canon, considering that A. it's a godmodder other than Richard, B. the powercreep was waaaay too apparent and C. We've had noncanon games before. We have another one going on right now!
I agree with that: DTG3 is definitely going to end Richard's story.
As for Terraria...Too late for that. It was canonized. We have a justification for the powercreep (Narrative Nexus), and its Godmodder is alpha (again). It's taking place after TvT2 does, and will finalize Alpha's own story as well.
Too late, we already made Terraria canon. Besides, our alternative was another Piono session (And I can't say this with any tact so basically they're pretty self-centered) wherein a relatively large portion of the endgame kind of screwed up power levels. Piono climbed two rungs of the Echeladder and Scratch literally alchemized the Green Sun. ...Granted, we're probably going to get worse, but you're not stopping this. Plus the Godmodder is Alpha (...now), so that argument is invalid. Add in the fact that some people are already treating it as canon and... well, you're not stopping this anytime soon. Regardless, the main thing I'd argue about Tazz's theft is the fact that it will literally never matter... probably.
You mean Raptureladder? Yeah, that was kind of dumb and didn't really solve anything, but Alpha is now an uber-God Tier or something? I think Crystal mentioned wanting to use that at some point, but so little got done it barely matters.
@piono: I've already established that part of his backstory, so deal with it.
@final: I'm not gonna lie, I did sorta base their personalities on them.
My argument still stands, and I am going to request this gets changed. I don't like limiting players like this, but there is some stuff that I can't allow. While i'm not the GM of TvT2, I can certainly influence events there if push comes to shove (namely through Tabbunne), which can include your backstory being nonexistent. To say nothing of how this involves the Godmodder directly, something important enough to warrant asking well in advance.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but I really want to regulate powerlevels so we don't have to deal with this kind of stuff.
Uh, hate to tell ya this, Alphazoid, but you're kinda asking someone who was around in DTG2 times - which is WAY before YOU, I might add - to deal with what, from what I at least am seeing, would essentially be a major change to canon that has been established YEARS ago. Which is not the smart kinda thing to do if you wanna have a good time here.
This summarizes my thoughts on the matter, Alphazoid. You're seriously not getting away with that, and doubly so not by rubbing Piono off, who is the reason TvT even exists in the first place-he alone has the authority to nope you, and as he's not interested in that, I am. The last time that happened to ANYONE, well, let's say the guy who did the rubbing had a very bad time.
I'm really curious, now that there are 2 Godmodders. Do you get a Spoil of War for defeating Richard or Uzi? Assuming you don't end up ending the story suddenly. What about the other godmodders that will show up? If a player killsteals Richard's attempted kill, could they get a Spoil of War? Like the godmodder glove or something?
Tazz, you said earlier that it is possible to become an Alpha Godmodder with a lot of charge and determination or the right level 25 Alchemy. Now I'm wondering how charges would work after becoming one, since godmodders don't appear to use it at all.
There's a theoretical spoil for defeating one or the other as far as UserZero/Richard are concerned, and it's naturally their gloves (not gonna bother hiding that). Other godmodders aren't going to have spoils of war, sadly.
Charges will work as normal; you would merely get some benefits in case you decided to go vulnerable (and some drawbacks).
...I think that's everything major that needs to be responded to.
@tazz: The reason why I have an issue with Roxanne doing that is that it completely obliterates the OP Scale, as sues have been proven to have less power than Descendants, and Engie is a high enough power that the Narrative itself directly intervenes to keep him from acting at full power, meaning that he's one of the few characters who's limited by acting as a Descendant, and the Mainframe is more powerful than him (or, correct me on that if I'm wrong engie, but that's the vibes I got)
And I read your post, you used the piono alchemies for it, which wouldn't have sped it up enough to let you get away with something like that, even if they weren't the dumbed-down alchemy versions.
I mean, this isn't worth having a massive row over, true, but if I get around to doing the terraria session in the Godmodder Chronicles, that particular event is definitely going to be overwritten with something else.

You're a Goatstopper, and I'm a Pro-Zero. How do I know you won't kill me for the Alpha rank? If you don't do that, then I won't mind the help. You could try to ascend as well.
I do not want alpha rank because that would prevent me from re-spawning(which is awfull) and from regaining life.(I intend to do a leveling system one day and it will be the rudisplorker class probably.)
