Actually, "Equal Measures" sounds like it would be fun. Besides, we don't have to stick to the scripts of the episodes that we choose, and we can elaborate upon the original scripts. That's the fun about an RP. Also, I asked which ones we should get rid of because Season One is 26 Episodes long. That's a lot, in comparison to the 13 and 13 of Seasons Two and Three, respectively.

Updated stances on Episodes:

"The Web" Out (It's creepy and it always gives me the willies. No contributions to the overall plot, save for some Rattrap/Cheetor male-bonding time. Which can be fit in elsewhere, or even as an Original BWINT Episode.)

"Call of the Wild" In (And my vote isn't because I'd get Tigatron air time ... it's because Blazemane brought up the great point of it would be fantastic to get into our character's heads, and they would process things in a very new light. It's why I'm also going to be fun to do "Dark Voyage.")

"Equal Measures" In (We can expand upon the script, change it, and have fun turning it from a mediocre episode to a fantastic RP.


Also, lookie here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Be ... s_episodes

That'll help out loads, don't you think?

(Edit was because it's a force of habit not to click "Preview" to make sure that all the coding was right.)

You actually just raised a question for a minor character that I hadn't even considered to be Season One! Are we going to do a clone character for the Clone Dinobot, just so that Tor doesn't have to be playing against herself as far as <i>Double Dinobot</i> goes?
Oh yeah. I didn't even think of that. XD I just thought it would be really fun to do that episode, I didn't care if DinoTor had to play two Dinobots against herself. :lol: Sorry, DinoTor! Silly me. >_<
In that case, what about the Vok and the other supporting characters?
Does that include Snowstalker? :wink: Just kidding.
Also don't worry OOP if do end having to die, Sinead will bring you back.
Oh yeah. Yay, Sinead! My hero! ^_^
And yes, bringing people back to life is fun. I'm so keeping a couple of Rhinox's lines from that episode. They were frustrated and fun. *chuckles*
:lol: Awesome. I still love that gentle giant. By the way, Sinead, will you be watering any plants as Rhinox? :D I rather liked his interest in horticulture.
I know that it's definitely in the future, but I would love to keep Transmutate on, but have a lot more interaction with the characters.
I agree!
*dodges waffles from Equal Measures haters*
*catches the waffles that were thrown at Blazemane, smears butter and dribbles some syrup on them and eats them* Mmmmmm. Waffles! :D

What about the episode Victory? Is that one really important? Or can we tie that story into another episode?

I loved Dark Voyage. I think those playing the blind characters could have a lot of fun with that, as well as the ones playing the Preds. :wink:

Possession reminded me about Starscream being brought into the mix. I kind of liked that episode but I don't know if everyone's up to it. We'd also need an audition for the Screamster.

Victory came after The Probe right? I guess that might depend on what we decide to do with the Probe. Victory probably wouldn't be nessisary if the signal in the Probe gets through and a rescue team comes and crash lands on the planet. But we could do Vidtory before The Probe if we wanted too.

NO WAY, Sky! The maximals are not getting rescued that early in! We NEED to get the 3rd season! Think of poor Depth Charge! He needs some luuuuv. Not to mention Rampage, Silverbolt, and Quickstrike. Ahhh Rampage... a insane homicidal crazy... just like mehself. *claps hands over my mouth* Was that out loud? :P

I didn't say they were being resuced. I said rescue team "crash land". As in the rescue team gets stuck there too. I remember that was talked about as a possible idea in another topic.

Yeah, let's hold a secondary audition set for the support characters once we've started this thing. And I reread my post ... I was SERIOUSLY drugged up, haha ... I've been fighting off a very nasty cold and have been ridiculously wussy about it. Today's much better, though.

Anyway.
By the way, Sinead, will you be watering any plants as Rhinox? Very Happy I rather liked his interest in horticulture.
Oh, you are SO getting a Rhinox with a greenhouse. Why else would they call him Big Green? I find it ironic that I went to high school for Natural Resources (aka: Treehugging/Nature-Loving major. Gee, I wonder why I love Tigatron?), but the way it branched out into learning about plants in ways that were definitely horticulturish? Ironic.
What about the episode Victory? Is that one really important? Or can we tie that story into another episode?
Actually, we could tie parts of Victory into Dark Designs, make it something a bit more than what the original writers had done. They could take Rhinox hostage when they leave the Axalon, for example, instead of the Big Guy getting caught on a random "family outing."
I said rescue team "crash land". As in the rescue team gets stuck there too.
Which would bring in a good amount of the Original Characters. Which is something that we should also plot out at some point.

I have a question... when do we plan to start? I'm not rushing anyone, I just am curious when we intended to get this off the ground.
I understand... you are, after all, a predacon.

Offical Apology:
Whoops. I seem to have a major problem with vision.... I should get that checked.

I'mma thinkin, yesss I CAN think sometimes... not really, but I think we should brainstorm another way of getting Predacon OCs to earth. It kinda weird to have Predacons on a Maximal rescue... unless the Preds were representatives of the Predacon Alliance and junk. Just saying.

It could be a joint effort, with the Predacons being there as "goodwill ambassadors" from the Tripredacus Counsel, who are placing their pieces carefully in order to dominate Cybertron. If they make the rescue, then they're covering their bets well. If not, well, it could be blamed upon the Maximals anyway, then BAM. Great War Three.

As for when this is starting .... I guess any moment, but the official decision hasn't started yet.

Interesting point.

My original thought for how the Preds got to earth via the Maximal rescue ship was ye olde Stowaways, though a diplomatic joint rescue thing has potential...

XD That is one reason why Cheetor is so low on my favorite list, no offesnse to his fans out there. He had some nice development throughout the series, but in the first season (and even at least once in the third), he ended up driving me crazy with the stunts he kept pulling. XD He's still somewhat likable to me because he's "young" and he has a cool beast mode. :wink:
Not to mention Rampage, Silverbolt, and Quickstrike. Ahhh Rampage... a insane homicidal crazy... just like mehself. *claps hands over my mouth* Was that out loud?
:lol: You didn't have to accidentally on purpose tell us out loud that you are an insane homicidal crazy, DinoTor. We've already figured that for ourselves. :wink: Just kidding!!! But yeah, all of those characters need some loving, too. ^_^
*Waves her hand in the air,drooling like a maniac*

:lol: ...I wonder who's going to audition for him... :wink:

Ah, that's awesome! I'm so pleased. :D To be honest, I thought they nicknamed him Big Green because he was big and had some green color on him. It sounds better than "Big Brown," anyway. XD I hadn't thought of the plant side to the meaning.

Oooo, me thinks that could work.

Definitely. ^_^

By the way, I kind of like that rescue team crash landing idea.
I'mma thinkin, yesss I CAN think sometimes... not really,
:lol: !!! Sorry, DinoTor. I'm not laughing at you, it's just that I often say the same things to myself. XD

Ooooo. I likey. :twisted:

I like either way; joint effort or stowaways. Just as long as we get those Preds there.

And ofcource, this ship has to launch some stasis pods of it's own as well before the crash.
So when other chars need to make an entrance, we atleast have that option covered.

Yeah I think the rescue gone wrong would work I think the that either joint rescue effort or Preds stowing away would work.

But of course we would need to think of a what would caught thier ship to crash.
