Ask BJ - Burter Jr - 06-09-2006
Ask me a question, and I'll answer it. It MUST pertain to DA. It can be personal, general or something broad like next year's DA or how I thought of something.
Only five at a time. I will not bother with anymore questions if I have five already waiting for me
Ask BJ - Orion - 06-09-2006
Why didn't you fuse Vegeta and myself? I don't ask that angrily, I'm just curious. There would've been plenty of things you could've done with that fusion.
Ask BJ - Minoshia - 06-09-2006
What did i do in the tournament that you liked enough for me to get number 3/4? I'm just wondering because i honestly didn't expect to make it that far at all, i didn't expect to survive against CU. What did i do well?

The same here basically, as a member for only 6 months now, I am surprised I made it to 11th. Was it because I have grown as a writer, and what did I do well, and what did I do that wasn't well?
Ask BJ - Old Captain Silver - 06-09-2006
Did you really think I RPed the asshole character well? Cause that kinda shocked me when you said that
Ask BJ - Jewtastic - 06-09-2006
Was I doing good enough to get further along if I had not run into Metal Koola in the wee hours of day one?

Quite simply, I couldn't fit it in correctly. I wanted to include the way Reijin manipulated you through shapechanging and I couldn't do it if were fused. I think this way worked out best, and it allowed you to do the fusion on your time.

By far, the best character development. I came in not thinking much of Mino other then he's an asshole, and you showed sides of him that he himself didn't known existed. I just, quite simply, fell in love with him. Your injury and lack of good weapons is what kept you from winning

Not to knock you or anything, but to be perfectly honest, you made it further then I would probably would have liked. You kicked ass on the strategical side of things and that's how you got far. Other then that, it was a matter of doing good enough to get through each invidivual fight. It wasn't like "Violet should go far," it was more like "Violet should live through this fight" and kept being that.
Quote:Did you really think I RPed the asshole character well? Cause that kinda shocked me when you said that
Yea, you did. Very well. I think Blue trumped you, though, in the end.
Quote:Was I doing good enough to get further along if I had not run into Metal Koola in the wee hours of day one?
No, I think you left at the right time. Had you not run into MK, you probably would have died anyway because Olibu was doing so good at that time. Best case, you'd have got away with a major injury and died soon later. You weren't really doing as well as one has come to expect of you.
That's five, I'm ignoring anything after them. Next?
Ask BJ - Jewtastic - 06-09-2006
Will next years be run the same way? Using the same map?
Ask BJ - Android-18 - 06-09-2006
Why was I kicked out. I just want a straight answer, oh and will it be my downfall next year?

Yea, it will be run the same way, with a few tweaks here and there to fix any problems from this year. No idea about the map, I haven't decided.

Just got out-rped. No other way to describe it. Very possible it hurts you next year, too, but it's the most common form of elimination.
Ask BJ - Old Captain Silver - 06-09-2006
Was it a good idea for me to betray an allaince so early in the course of the game? and what was the reason Bujin killed me cause I clearly was stonger. Was just wonderin

It was a bold move. Can't say if it was good or not, as you pretty much fucked yourself by giving away your location.
You lost 4 to 1, and Bujin was the strongest of the four who kicked your ass. So he got the kill, to enhance his own character's storyline.
Ask BJ - Old Captain Silver - 06-09-2006
This is the last one, I swear. How do you think I will do in the next DA?
Ask BJ - Super Buu - 06-09-2006
Very broad question, and probably an infuriating one: How did you think my roleplaying was over the whole competition?
I get the feeling it may have been stale nearer to the end, or parts could have been proofread more thoroughly. Maybe I posted too much, etc etc.
Oh, and are you going to nerf the GPS Tracker if it's in the game next year? I know from personal experience just how heavily it affects the game

Assuming you don't pull the same stunt, probably a mid-game elimination
Ask BJ - Burter Jr - 06-09-2006
Quote:Very broad question, and probably an infuriating one: How did you think my roleplaying was over the whole competition?
It was good, the best of CU through the whole competition, only trumped once or twice by Violet or KB who were known to put out the odd amazing roleplay. So, uh, very good would be my answer.
Quote:Oh, and are you going to nerf the GPS Tracker if it's in the game next year? I know from personal experience just how heavily it affects the game
No. GPS will very likely stay.
I'll probably take away the sniper rifle's ability to see around it's location, thus leaving only the binoculars and the tracker.
Ask BJ - Ruhiel - 06-09-2006
Did I deserve to get as far as I did? I just feel that if me and Krillin hadn't hidden ourselves and tried to develop a good strategy, I would have been eliminated. I just don't feel I wrote as strong as I could have.

Writing wise? There were people that wrote better that were eliminated before you.
Strategy wise? It got you to 10th place, so really, who's to say you don't deserve it?
Reminds me of a good quote in the Battle Royale Manga.
"They put themselves on the line out of faith, and it killed them. They died doing what they believed in. Doesn't make them any less dead. So tell me, were they right...or wrong?"
Ask BJ - Toshiro - 06-09-2006
Was it my lack of RPing in the first lil while that destoryed my chances of going any further in the game?
