/aog/ - Attorney Online General

spark edition

/aog/ is a place to primarily discuss Attorney Online but also Ace Attorney in general.
Whether you want to talk about your favourite cases, your favourite characters or anything else AA related, it's all welcome here.

>What is Attorney Online?
In short: It's multiplayer Ace Attorney.
AO is a virtual chatroom/courtroom mix which we use to perform improvised AA-like trials, Civil Cases, Class Trials, Jury Cases and more! Choose from a wide selection of AA characters (and guest characters), pick a position (Defence, Prosecution, Judge, Witness, etc.) and dive into a whirlwind of logic, banter, theories and memes.

Disgusting.

Shoo shoo.

There's plenty of evidence to keep Ema in great tier, I've conducted a thorough investigation of every assistant, and these are my findings for Ema.

Ema is literally just Maya but with science instead of spirit shit. At the very least Gumshoe deserves to be above her, he's a way better detective.

>/aog/ faggot letting dumb memers color his perception of the objectively best detective in literature.
No i'm going off of the game, and his blundering, almost joking way he carries out his investigations. Without a watson/ryunosuke he is fucking godawful and why you are arrested AGAIN in the second case.

You're close, user. Ema is Maya with science, but isn't annoying.

>He hasn't played DGS

Holmes was working off the information he had available, and Ryunosuke being the only person in a locked room with a dead body made it easy for him to deduce Ryu was the killer. Later in the case he changes his deduction once new information comes up, and it helps Ryu figure out who the real killer is.

Furthermore, every Holmes story is canon in DGS, meaning that he had already solved dozens of cases and defeated Moriarty. Just because he's goofy doesn't mean he's incompetent.

>In a locked room with the body
>In a closet thing he had no way of resealing once inside, so he had no way of coming out in the first place.
>Ryu has to guide his braindead ass to real deductions.
Yes i will admit he had solved dozens of cases prior, but he had WATSON, either in the form of his friend, or adoptive daughter guiding the madness in his genius.
I'm sorry but holmes alone is a retard, he needs joint reasoning to be effective.

You're correct in that he needs someone to help him iron out his reasoning, but calling him retarded is going a bit too far.

Often in DGS, his deductions are correct, but for the wrong reasons. He needs Ryu to iron out the small details to reveal why he's correct, but without the deductions in the first place, Ryu wouldn't have a clue what to do.

In short, Holmes is a genius, but often he needs people of lesser intelligence to ground his theories in reality. This is how it worked in the original stories too; Holmes would often sit with Watson and discuss his cases to fix any flaws his theories may have.

Yes but then you compare him to someone like miles edgeworth, who engages with logic battles with his foes and completely dismantles them mentally. He does not need a partner for logic chess, he just DOES.
So with your reasoning, Miles Edgeworth is more effective than sherlock holmes.

Miles never uses analytical deduction in his investigations, so the comparison between the two isn't apt. Holmes never sets out to prove someone wrong, either, he just wants to figure out how someone did a crime.

And from the way every person freaks out when he deduces their crimes, he's always correct.

And miles as well seeks out HOW they did the crime, seeing he want's to arrest the proper man.
But i do see your point.
I also counter with all of his "deductions" of course make people flip out, because without the helper to iron it out, it's absolutely ridiculous.
>first accuses ryu of being Russian defector
>Then nikomina.
The man tunnel visions like hell.

Hmm... It appears we've a conundrum on our hands. This anonymous poster doubts my deductive reasoning, does he? Well, let's see if we can't surprise him!

From the start, you may notice that the image he has chosen is from tumblr, a website universally reviled on Veeky Forums. Only someone unfamiliar with Veeky Forums culture would leave a tumblr filename intact, and if you'll recall, one person has shown a remarkable unfamiliarity with Veeky Forums culture.

That's right, I'm referring to Verin! This man regularly posts in the general to defend himself from accusations, has in the past admitted to not knowing how to delete posts, all suggesting that he is a new addition to Veeky Forums. Thus, the tumblr filename makes sense, for he does not understand how this site works. Furthermore, he has repeatedly used this skeleton Miles image in past threads!

To the next point, you may notice the posting style: a wonderfully devout obsession with logic, something Verin tries (emphasis being tries) to adhere to, this is supported by the numerous times he has stated to hate illogical asspulls. Furthermore, there is that telltale emphasis of a word in all capital letters.

All of this lead me to deduce the identity of the poster is none other than Verin himself!

But I must profess that you are not entirely incorrect in regards to my method. Without my dear assistant Ryunosuke, I daresay my brilliance could not be so honed and precise!

Alright holmes, you have made a sound reasoning or two, and i can appreciate the effort you put in to insult me, but you forget very obvious points about me that tear apart your argument.
1.The Tumbler photo.
I myself to not browse tumblr, i find all of my pictures with google and typically save them as is, meaning a large portion of the time, i am pulling pictures from places like tumblr. The name remains the same simply because i'm lazy, like so many around here.
2.
I do like logic, and while i can be a little illogical to someone else's (Namely you) mind, i tend to make sense to myself and i do make some form of point with the things i say, even if i need to be pulled back. And when i am not wrapped up in a meme, i am quite able and capable of precise deductions about the situation at hand.
I do not have a unfamiliarity with our culture either, i just am of a more uncaring mindset of our ways, i see them as barbaric and uncouth.
But yes, otherwise good show holmes, you stated the obvious.

this is some quality thread bumping

Stop posting your commissioned Atmey memes.

Adding emote when?

That Ranma 1/2 case was such a great case.

doc?

>commissioned
Nigga i just looked this all up on google.
Get on my level.

...

...

...

>Somebody finally saved one of my pictures
I'm honored.

You need to play attention to the thread more, we try to save all player made pictures.

What in the absolute fuck is with this oversaturation of Atmey images in the thread?
It makes my stomach churn whenever I see him here now.
Atmey images feel like an unfunny normie made meme at this point.

docs.google.com/document/d/1vlHmYkw2vkC7bnM4_4JEK3P3UVfv0oR10lNsigDpzG8/edit#

Should we make an archive of these?

Because of Verin

Reminder that there is literally not a single reason this general should exist

Well, how about you bump the thread then when it's at 10, and i'll just stop, and if the thread dies, it can be your fault~

There are a few, the two biggest being that people simply do not check other doc based platforms we have, and content creation feedback.

Fine I will

>Why are people posting edits of a funny Atmey player?!

Sweet, i won't go to bed at 4am tonight trying to keep the thread alive.
Thank you user.

>people
It's mostly just Verin posting edits of himself.
He just complained on >discord how somebody in the thread bitched about him posting Atmey all the time.

Eat shit

...

>do not check other doc based platforms we have

They'd have to if the thread didn't exist

>content creation feedback

Easily done in-game. There is literally no reason for this thread to exist.

That one too! Goody goody.

Wrong, i complained someone can't post a picture when the thread is at 10 without bitching.
Which is retarded.
It's AO content, and it's thread relevant, and it keeps the thread alive. Hell, we are on page one as of this post, which is pretty rare.
Busy night.

Okay boys, post Gregs.

>I hate Verin so everyone must hate him.
>Verin is behind it all! It's all Verin!

well it does so too bad for you

How do you replicate that effect?

Everyone does hate Verin though.

I think i have a couple of gegs amoungst all my screenies...lesse.

...

One of the very first signs of the Greg we know of today

If you want to keep this cesspool of shitposting, drama, and namedropping alive feel free.

I'm just warding off any others who might want to bump this shit and """""help""""" out. There is literally no reason for it to exist.

Nigga it's just bait.
Shit like this is just said to egg me out of user, and i appreciate the effort used to shitpost, and to an extent, it is creative thread bumping.
Better than a ded general imo. Just keep it out of game.

>Easily done in-game. There is literally no reason for this thread to exist.

Except IC and OOC logs are not permanent records that are there for your viewing pleasure 24/7.
Unless you are awake and on AO and in the correct area when somebody asks for feedback you are going to miss it.

You're not everyone.

Greg is a cringey reddit-tier meme.

>the threads that constantly 404 unless babysat are more of a permanent record

Yeah, good point.

Then you're stuck in this shit like the rest of us user, just like any other thread on this forsaken board

>cringey

You have to go back.

Except there are permanent records of Veeky Forums threads on archive sites.
You can go pull up the very first general and read ecery post in it right this second.
The thread hasn't 404'd in about a week or so, lay off the hyperbole.

>content creation feedback
I agree. The thread always gives dim witted feedback, shitposting, or it's feedback that's already been given ingame by someone else.

let it die

I dunno what you are talking about geg is the best.

You first, redditer.

Cringe.

"Cringe" is literally the most reddit shit on the fucking planet, go the fuck back and stay there.

This is my favourite Greg screencap
how about you?

Only the best one

Already posted it.
He took Verin and btfo'ed him, it was glorious.

Here's my favorite

>Redditor telling everyone what words to use.

Cringe.

Does anyone have the Egypt one?
That's my favorite Greg, but I can't seem to be able to find it.

Dumbass faggots arguing about a stupid word because they can't live 10 seconds without being confrontational

Why was DD trying to be so edgy?

Because, athena is a mary sue, and mary sue's have edgy stories

DD was edgy shit but it gave me my favorite AO running joke

>something minor/inconsequential happens in a case
>Dark Age of the Law.mp3

>prosecution does a shitty rebuttal
>Judge goes with it
>DARK AGE OF THE LAW.MP3

Supposedly, the Dark Age of the Law meme was referenced more in the jap version of AJ but it got lost in translation
