/aog/ - Attorney Online General

it dont matter Edition
/aog/ is a place to primarily discuss Attorney Online but also Ace Attorney in general.
Whether you want to talk about your favorite cases or characters 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, Investigations 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.

Come join us on our server:

Phelps case when.

Brief reminder that we are lawyer.

Never forget

Would you accept more Dangits in the server if they were higher quality?

no, dangits should be kept at a minimum. CC can have all the dangits they want cause it was made for it.

how would you improve our current dangits to make them "higher quality"?

This. It's okay to have a few, but this is a predominantly AA server and I think it should be kept that way.

A little spice improves a meal, a lot of spice ruins it.

...

He'd steal rips from another server.

You could say the same about most our rips honestly.

which ones do we fix, user?

I'm deleting AOV

rip time to pack it up

Didn't you do that a long time ago?

We are all dead already.

MILES: Well Wright, I've made it to courtroom, despite your directions.
PHOENIX: Ah, Prosecutor Edgeworth, welcome! I hope you are prepared for an unforgettable trial!
MILES: Ehh.

(Phoenix checks his evidence)

PHOENIX: Holy gods! My case is ruined! But what if I were to make bluffs and disguise them as the truth? Ho ho ho! Delightfully devilish, Phoenix!

MILES: WRIIIIIIGHT!

PHOENIX: Edgeworth! I was just... Cross examining this witness. The pursuit for the truth! Care to join me?

MILES: Why are you hiding evidence behind your back, Wright?

PHOENIX: Ah... Ooh! That isn't evidence! It's a conviction! Conviction from this open and shut trial we're having! Hmm, convictions!

(Some cross examining later)

PHOENIX: Prosecutor Edgeworth, I hope you are ready for mind-twisting contradictions we're having!

MILES: I thought we were having convictions.

PHOENIX: No, no! I said contradictions! That's what I call turnabouts!

MILES: You call turnabouts "contradictions"?

PHOENIX: Yes! It's a profession dialect.

MILES: Uhuh. What profession?

PHOENIX: Uhh... Attorney.

MILES: Really? Well, my father is a defense attorney and I have never heard anyone the phrase "contradiction" for "conviction".

PHOENIX: Oh, not a defense attorney, no, it's a state attorney expression.

MILES: I see. You know, these contradictions are quite similar to the ones attorneys point when they bluff.

PHOENIX: Oh ho ho! No! Patented Phoenix contradictions! Old agency tactic!

MILES: For contradictions.

PHOENIX: Yes!

MILES: So you call them contradictions despite the fact they obviously match the facts.

PHOENIX: Y-Ye... You know the... One thing I sh-... Excuse me for one second.

MILES: Of course.

(Some thinking later)

PHOENIX: Oh, that was wonderful. A good trial was had by all. I'm done.

MILES: Yes, I think we should hear the v-- GOOD LORD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THERE?!

PHOENIX: A spirit channeling?

MILES: A spirit channeling? At this time of year, at this time of day, at this part of the courthouse, localized entirely in the autopsy report you are holding?

PHOENIX: Yes!

MILES: May I see it?

PHOENIX: No.

(The verdict is about to be given.)

MAYA: PHOENIX! They are taking away our client!

PHOENIX: No, Maya, these are just his good friends.

MILES: Well, Wright, you are an odd fellow, but I must say... You point some good contradictions.

>AO is a virtual chatroom/courtroom mix
Is this as bad as it sounds?

That depends. How autistic are you?

I see.

Are rape cases good ideas?

the fuck

>VVing comes back as mod
>immediately starts crashing people's clients by spamming wake me up on a macro
Why did we let this underage back?

are... are you serious?
>he's mod on mod discord
fucking great we let the underaged admin who leaked several pieces of confidential server information and broke the rules regularly back in as a mod; nothing could go wrong with this series of events

he was underage two years ago. He wasn't even underage when he left the server. As far as leaking things, pretty sure he 1) cant get IP's to leak and 2) only has the mod internship position for the time being.

>crying about spamming basement

Kys senpai.

He leaked the mod pass several times and the server poll results less than a day after agreeing to not reveal server poll results or be immediately demodded (all mods and admins agreed to this, vving was the only one who broke that, at least in public). Which he was then handwaved into not being demodded because Lupa wanted to keep him to vote the way he wanted on administrative decisions.
And this isn't even mentioning how he simply refused to care when he was being spammed with pings and modcalls over someone posting guro porn.

he also doesn't have access to poll data, if that helps. And most of the mods have, at one point or another in the early days, leaked the pass. Especially when the Master Chat didn't reject /login commands and just posted them on the MSL

>other mods accidentally did something bad once or twice and apologized and took precautions not to do it again, this lets us handwave vving purposefully doing the most harmful things to this server, spamming redtext for no reason, claim he is above all of the rules, leak info of all kinds, refuse to do his job, all while neither apologizing for it nor caring about being a detriment to the community
So when is Rhoda being remodded?

never

>still don't have any of the SOJ DLC characters
>WE NEED MORE DANGITS PEOPLE
Fucking why?

if you want character [x], get footage for [x] and rip the emotes yourself. or pay someone to do it for you.

Reminder there are only 1 or 2 rippers left.

>shit on rippers
>they stop ripping
rip

Why does this always happen in any community?

Reminder that anyone with a peanut brain can rip, even a nigger. hell, niggers are good at doing the same thing over and over.

Someone should convince Gato to rip.

>thinking the quality of Dangits is the problem and not the fact they exist
nigga

I've been out of the loop for a while. What the fuck is up with Basement being so popular these days?

Because DR fags are literally autistic.

A youtube video of a case recess got popular and a bunch of (mostly underaged) people started playing. They stay in basement the entire time.

You chucklefucks already have Containment Court (CC), why do you keep trying to dominate the server?

If they're underage then why are they allowed to stay?

>Hey I have no evidence or ways to back up my claims but I think everyone in basement is underage. Ban pls
I mean you could do the underage baiting meme but that's genuinely a faggy thing to do.

There's nothing wrong about baiting underages into getting banned. The next generation needs to be spared from our autism.

>There's nothing wrong about baiting underages into getting banned.
I mean if you're just doing the 13+ meme for the hell of it there's no real harm in it. Either they're not underage, they are but lie about it, or are genuinely too dumb to take a hint. I'm talking about those people who actively witch hunt because they literally have nothing better to do other than cause a shitstorm in whatever area they're in.

...

Shitty meme videos got viral so people started to download AO and turn into a shitpost simulator. Like we do.

Don't understand how they got so popular anyway, what goes on with Google's algorithms?

Any good cases going on right now?
How'd they end? Give the details.

This is the place to talk about the main Ace Attorney series too right?

I just beat the first one, or at least I thought I did after the Christmas case, and then there was the case with the Skye sisters after, so now I'm on Justice for All.

...Is the music supposed to be terrible? I already miss the music from the first game, those tracks were pretty great.

They change the soundtrack every game. And JFA actually has one of the better soundtracks. You'll warm up to it.

The music quality varies wildly through the series.

well then maybe if it's so easy to do you should do it, since you are so happy to shit on them.

AA2 is a mixed bag in terms of OST; it has some of the best music in the series, but also some of the more flat. AA3 is generally perceived as better, although its tracks later on get reused like mad.

AA3 has the absolute worst OST in the series. It has some absolutely god-tier character themes (Godot, Dahlia, Atmey, Tigre) but the worst Questioning, worst Pursuit, worst Objection (which for some reason is now the one that's Phoenix's official theme), and those are the themes that you hear for most of the game. They just sound unfinished at points.

Apollo Justice is a pretty shit game but it does have a really fantastic soundtrack.

>worst Pursuit
Fuck you dude.

>Atmey's theme.
>Good.
You can only have one, faggot.

Disagree with you 100% with questioning and pursuit, especially pursuit. but have to say, not huge on the objection theme either.

Why can't I connect to the server?
All I see are SDRS and Courtroom of the Cosmos

Anyone?

Did you download the full game from the main doc and not vanilla Attorney Online?

I've had this download for a while now, I've just recently come back after a break. Got all the updates too, so I don't know what the issue is.
Even says on the bulletin in the chat area that since I'm using 2.0 I shouldn't have any problems, but here I am.

Wew just looked it up and it's not just you, it's affecting a lot of other people too. Must be a recent update. Sorry guy.

Yep, server's down it seems. Bad timing.

patrick in aov when

Where's the server?

Would be a nice change of pace at this point desu.

this community is fucking cancer.

Shitty analogy. That would imply that AOV spreads. It doesn't.

it's cancer in the sense it makes me want to die.

Ah, so it's depression. that would be more accurate

...

New mod exams when?

Server is migrating I assume?

Ripping being easy has nothing to do with shitting on rippers, but since you asked, why did Rye leave the discord (again), and why was it because his Big Shit got refused?

>sister is a final year law student
>her end goal is to pass the bar, be a barrister and make it as judge
>she's played all the old AA games
>gets up to DD
>gets to the Themis Legal Academy case
>they mention the "judge course"
>can' force herself to keep playing
>she could take spirit mediums
>she could take parrot cross examinations
>but she couldn't handle a judge course
>hasn't touched the game since
Are there any parts in the Ace Attorney series you can't seem to suspend disbelief for?

BB does not meet the server's rules for content addition. For the animations where he does not play instruments (in other words, the only good quality ones) his talking (b) animations are identical to his idle (a) animations. Until he has been recreated in a way that expresses talking in his (b) animations rather than reusing idles, he will not be put up for public voting.

Thanks underageb&. I wasn't asking about it.

Them throwing shit at eachother in court. Godot's coffee especially.

Probably the fact Von Karma just keep whipping people over and over with no repercussion. I mean shit you'd think she would get a penalty or something.
