Capital Punishment Overused

In seven years of playing I have yet to be killed by a templar.
Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be fooled.

I don't see it happening where I play.

The secret to great RP is having the balls to be weird and the brains to make it eloquent.

So then, is the consensus that Capital Punishment by way of death is actually overused? Or is it just in the eyes of a certain few?

Perhaps its something thats happened lately?

Heh, you want a consensus from the GDB ... I lol'ed  :D

You are definitely not playing the game right.

Quote from: VanthSynthesis, you scare me a little bit.

I have yet to be killed by any PC, templar or no. I have yet to be killed by any templar, PC or no.

No one on staff is just waiting for the opportunity to get revenge on someone who killed one of their characters years ago.

Except me. I remember every death. And I am coming for you bastards.

Quote from: Rievroleplay damn well(I assume Kazi and fourTwenty are completely different from each other)

Did you just call one of us a dick?

 I still say sometimes death is needed and wanted by certain plot lines. I would rather die to a templar/ect, in a plot, than to some random critter.

I've been tortured and everything else but I've never actually been executed by an authority in a citystate. Granted there have been a couple of times where I ended up fleeing the city because I feared the above.

Edit: I'm hoping to actually get disapeared once before the end of Arm 1

... Take off all your character's closed and try to walk into the Templar's Quarter. That should do the trick.

I've had a character professionally assassinated in 5.5 playing hours by a high-rung family agent.

I've had two characters thrown into the arena within 3 playing hours (one who actually got the auto-rezz after dying inside!) by a templar. One of those was sentenced to a lifetime of slavery after.

Been roleplay tortured by a superior several times with one character.

Am I playing the game wrong? (I'm technically losing.) :/

I still think the best closure you get in Armageddon is just moving on to the next character.

I loved that character!

There are no winners and losers in Arm. Only sadists and masochists.

Don't forget the newbies and f-me's.

And solo hunters.

If anything, my friend, I'd say you're playing right.

I would agree... I wish my character deaths as of yet were that interesting!
