A note for the roleplayers

[Bayushi Senshi]

There is currently a discussion in the Scorpion private section that has something to do with a Scorpion champion's IC actions (among other things). Until this discussion is over and a decision reached on what should be done, it would be inappropriate for me to roleplay in any threads. Also it is a possibility that any and all of my past in character actions will be null and void, for the time being I ask that you all carry on as such that there was never a Bayushi Senshi as the Scorpion champion.

I do not expect that everything will be retconed. I just felt in the interest of transparency, that it would be appropriate to explain now in case it is determined that it should be retconed.

I also feel that in light of the manner and matter of the discussion being held that it would be inappropriate for me to rp at this time. I do not expect that this will take long.

I do not want to say too much about the issue, due to the careful nature of the discussion. If there are any questions, I will try to answer them for you in a private message, I cannot guarantee that I can give a complete answer.

As of yesterday, and only momentarily, there is no "official" scorpion champion.

Is it like "there is no such things as vampires" ? :-)

[Shoju]

I think that no matter what happens, there is no possible way that there shoudl be a "senshi didn't exist" type solution.

Honestly? I would probably walk away from the boards if that is the answer.

[Bayushi Senshi]

Nothing too rash now! Things are being looked at and re-worked with and re-evaluated. I'm afraid thats all I can say about it at this point. Theres a chance that no change may come at all, but for right now it would be inappropriate for me to continue to rp until a decision is made.
Nothing too serious, just a re-evaluation.

[Shoju]

I don't feel that is too rash, considering that my character is directly affected by those actions.

I don't know the specifics, and I don't really want to. But, If people are unhappy with the way its going, the answer shouldn't be to even possibly consider striking a character from the record.

[Toku Hirotomo]

Agreed, Shoju. We did not even strike Hyuu from the record. Nor the old Kakita Daimyo. Seems far too harsh for a disagreement.

[Bayushi Senshi]

No disagreement, just a reevaluation and a discussion.

[tadakasan]

Long winded discussion *polishes his monocle* But seriously, Senshi is right; this shouldn't take too long I should think. People are more or less on the same page I think, but the devil can be in the details, especially when you find yourself re-evaluating things.

[Takezo]

In my experience part of what makes roleplaying interesting is making a "wrong" or "it seemed a good idea at the time" kind of decision, going forward with it, and then working through the ramifications later.

I don't really participate in RP here (except perhaps in the Dragon private forum) but I'd hate to see some kind of "redaction" of prior announcements of position!

[Bayushi Senshi]

UPDATE: I am the champion again. Still waiting on a consensus about the role Senshi plays in issues. So rps are still on hold.

[Bayushi Haruka]

I dissapear for one damn day and this happens... WHY U CAN HAS NO GET ALONG...
*RAWRS*

[Soshi Kiso]

*soothes Haruka with candies*

[Takezo]

I'm just now noticing that the Scorpion Clan have 3 moderators? That must be some manner of intrigue!

We Dragon don't even have one...

[Toku Hirotomo]

Neither do the Minor Clans. Though you can count us on one hand.

[Soshi Kiso]

Its a conspiracy! It just happened to fall that way. Haruka was originally unicorn. (Scorpion wedding will fix that I'm sure)
