(OOC retconning and shit)
| Holy hell, poor guy. No problem. We could possibly just reschedule annihilation for another date? -KN/E.R (I wish you fortune and better luck.)
| agh, that's a shame. angry khora is really fun to play lol
that being said, good luck with whatever you're dealing with fam, and i completely understand. -archarin
| Well, guess i gotta make a new Help! post. rip. Other then thay i don't think too many plotlines were affected
| I'm fine with retconning it, I don't like doing massive power stuff like that.
Jinterprise RPer
| Unless if you want to have the war declaration stopped due to Jinterprises action.
It could make sense RP
| >>165955
>w> Well at least now I can poke you and let you know I'm interested in plotting things with you, Jinterprise RPer~. -Aethia
| I support it
Too much happend too quickly.
| >>165942
Dang I was looking forward to this too. I hope whatever is going on can be settled peacefully and without any stress or problems.

Oh?

| Hi,
I understand that real life is kind of a pain in the neck (hell, the majority of the roleplayers here are in college or so), but I want you to understand the gravity of what you're asking.
We have two options with how we can proceed:
1) I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and retcon the entirety of the events of last night, but all events moving forward from this will not be retconnable,
Or,
2) The military are cowed by Jinterprise shutting off the electricity in the UK
##Janitor:Stormy##
| The second one would make the most sense and require the least amount of backtracking, especially considering relations between the UK military and Glitch City leading up to this event.
Beyond that, I wish you luck on whatever troubles you got going on IRL.
| I mean, obviously we retcon it by sayinf ir was fakenews and over reaction
| >>165980
Normally that would be possible, but the problem is, it was very public... it's not like corrupt media just harping "alternative facts" all over the telly and the Sun.
| >>165973
As much as I'd prefer the second variant, I think I'd ask everyone to go with the first.
Jinterprise shutdown makes more sense, but I will not be able to be reacting to anything, making UKOBIANMC just sit on their asses in awkward silence. Unless someone would be so kind to take over them in my absence.
| Ultimately, I leave it up to /cyb/ to decide.
| I mean, someone can juat say Uko and vindertech doing talks ad infinitum behind closed doors
| They would pretty much be forced to, after this mess. But then, this would also probably be the most peaceful resolution of conflict in Glitch City in... ever.
| regarding the Jinterprise route
How are they going to handle the public outrage, erosion of trust and the embarrassment of being told to sit down just like that
| >>166002
The way that it should have been handled in other examples in universe and IRL- by licking their wounds, admitting their failures, and gracefully exiting before things get any worse.
| >>166002
I mean. Thats an interesting thing to explore. How do companies deal with it in real life? There is a ton that deal with that in recent events.
| >>166006
There was a charity recently that it was just found out had top ranking execs involved in child prostitution using the charity's money.
| >>166007
Honestly this would probably be how a merc company does this.
I believe thats what Black Water did.
| I like the idea of the Jinterprise just shuting them down, it would make more sense than a pure retcon.
As for you, anon, I wish you luck, we've all had bad turns at one point and its completely understandable.
| /cyb/ is unique in that it weeds out, or attempts to weed out, imbalance and outrageous events not by modding them out, but by every action having a consequence. The greater the action, the worst the consequence. The exception are small things that only affect a few people, but when you're running large corporations and military or sweeping amounts of characters, you have to accept that you have a greater responsibility to take care of.
| "Well that was pathetic"
"Well that was easier than expected"
| Anyway... good luck IRL OP. /cyb/ will still be here for when you're ready to return.
| >>166019
"Wow, a conflict ended with no serious loss of life or destruction of property. That's a first. Maybe the last."
| >>166027
Maybe he's referring to a power company having more control than government, because of owning so much of their power network? o.o
>Dystopic.
| Public outrage as in: you just told everyone that you don't mind declaring war on a city because someone inside peeved you.
But the power company? -being told to sit down just like that
| Can this be known as the 0 day war-
| The war that never happened for serious
the 5 minute war or the 0 day war For being funny
| "That war that happened but was actually an early april fools joke
##Janitor:Stormy##
| >>166047
That could work. We'll work out the specifics later.
Beyond that... I guess we'll just move forward with this. The war that ended with an almost literal flip of the switch.
| Wait how much of the city is trashed?
| If you mean got trashed by the not-war. But if you mean how much of the city is trashed in general, that's a different answer
| Wow.. Herpadurp.
| >>166089
(Er... I think British Roleplayer was also K-TRAN and Yellow King... and a couple others...)
(...and K-Tran was rebuilding the airport. RIP.)
(Unless i'm mistaken.)
| it was more poking fun of the speed of the rebuilding, being in irrelevence limbo and all
| (ohs)
(That's probably because it hasn't yet undergone a rebuilding montage which somehow finishes the entire complex just in time for some kind of narrative climax and/or disaster.)
| >>166095
That is correct.
>>166105
No one just bothered going to Airport meanwhile, except for helpgurl that one time. There were posts and threads noting construction being underway, and K-TRAN representative at Capitol Meeting did note, that rebuilding will take multiple months (after its done airport will open), and expansion will take multiple years.
Im only scraping storylines that make no sense to me anymore or require immediate attention on my part.
| Various repairs throughout the city will continue in irrelevence limbo for now.
| I'm a bit happy, my current lack of activity has left me in a slightly rough spot for a warzone to start -OSSN
| Will the UKOBIANMC issue a press release before going dormant?
| No pressure or anything. Just remembered why
| Uh, AM here, I was just going to update you and say that The collar problem and contract have been solved/done, so we can push the plot. If you can't, we can just call it a delay of base setup in the zone.
| ALSO, wish you the best with your pursuits.

| UKT here, a UKOBIANMC player. Life bitchslapped me rather hard today, so I won't be able to keep up with /cyb/ for awhile.
As such, I'd like to retcon the whole war declaration story line, as well as retcon the job for CN and Ferris.
I'm sorry to ruin the fun, but as of now, I'm just not going to be able to do it.
