Weekend Quest Discussion Thread

Fuck off cunt. I have no intention of leaving this board.

If I get banned for quests, I'll post some really quality Veeky Forums threads instead like - 'saw a girl wat do' or 'elf slave wat do' or 'excuse me commissar'

We'll report every quest thread every day until they're all gone, because you have your own board now and you're NOT WELCOME here anymore. You never were. Get out.

Make us, faggot.

Oh, please. Shitposters on Quests are being banned left and right. Report away, you'll cop a ban yourself. The Quests currently running have no issues with shitposters.

And then you get banned because of report abuse and the fact that they are no rules stating that quests should go to /qst/

The new board is crap. It's the Warsaw Ghetto of boards.

Make me faggot.

All shitposting aside, how do you do an anime-themed quest without it being TOO anime?

Like, thanks to Veeky Forums, I'm afraid of mentioning 'katana' and 'fedora', ever, because they're both massive in-jokes despite being completely reasonable words. If you're going for something seinin manga-ish, how do you make things more respectable/serious?

>Player
>How shit is /qst/?
played one quest there so far (capes over Rain City) and I see nothing wrong with it in the slightest.

the pseudo tripcodes even make it easy to keep track of either QM posts, my own posts, or whom is saying what in the spaces between quest actions

I've not used most of the actual board features besides that though.

by the rules of that board this thread doesn't go there. so it goes here and you can just deal with it you sad, sad piles of ossified stupidity and wasted organ meat...

>they are no rules stating that quests should go to /qst/
except the common knowledge that Quests SHOULD go on the QUEST BOARD
its the 21st century, lets see if Separate But Equal can work now

I loathe the tripcodes more than anything else.

>"And look at this shiny new gulag, you can paint graffiti and drown in shit all day!"

/qst/ looks okay until you're done running, then it takes about a day to fall off the board. And all the quests there are shit.

We have to make room for thirty more quests about warhammer shitposting and waifu fights

Basically this. It's clear that this isn't going to fucking work, best intentions or not. All it's done is to bring out the shitposters in force.

Well don't use the word fedora ever, it's taken on a meaning completely separate from the article of clothing. But if you just say sword instead of katana, and the setting is clearly Japanese, people will assume it's a katana.

>its the 21st century, lets see if Separate But Equal can work now
Oh, you're pro-segregation. I guess I can discard your opinion now.

>played one quest there so far (capes over Rain City) and I see nothing wrong with it in the slightest.

Except for the fact that the thread was unusable? The thread itself stopped being able to auto and manually update.

Pretty much. Now we have to sit through a week of people throwing autism fueled tantrums about it

Yeah, this is why I've never, ever used 'katana'. It's always just 'long blade' or 'sword'.

I'm running something on /qst/ right now (), mostly as a fair litmus test to see if /qst/ is viable at all

A day after, my only complain with /qst/ is the lack of players there, it's pretty slow compared to when I played here on Veeky Forums a year ago, and even then my quality control and general quest quality was pretty damn bad and didn't deserve the amount of players it did; where as, now, I feel like this would've run much more smoother and livelier on Veeky Forums

Just my honest opinion
For now, I can't migrate here since the quest isn't dead yet

I'm a supporter of having a permanent Quest Discussion Thread or Quest thread general on Veeky Forums if /qst/ makes it out of trial.

As one user said in the feedback thread about having one on Veeky Forums
>A thread where people could discuss, suggest, and advertise upcoming and ongoing /qst/ quest threads?

Risk is, you'll get banned for those as well.

The way the board works isn't to bad, I prefer Veeky Forums but the problem is how toxic the community is. Veeky Forums already had some awful players but /qst/ has them for a ton of other boards as well and the quests are mostly shit so far.

why?

again, why?
and I'm not pro segregation for PEOPLE.
but I'm for it in this case though.
use of that phrase was meant to be an amusing parallel

I hadn't noticed any problem like that.
I'll have to watch for that.

Well the whole board had that problem, but is now fixed

Once all the quest threads are banned from Veeky Forums then the players will have to go to /qst/, so if anything the lack of players there is an argument for shunting them out of here.

It's achingly, ass-crampingly slow and poorly optimized. Fuck that shit.

And as I've seen on the Spooky thread, people get really fucking weird if there's a 24/7 sticky. Believe me.

I took a garner at some of them and theres a marked difference in the speed of content and playstyle.

I was against /qst/ but I'm starting to believe theres a market for quests on both boards. Veeky Forums ones will mainly be those of hi-speed updates in sessional threads while those on /qst/ resemble those long lasting games with updates once a day or week.

And I think thats great, as long as players and qms have the choice as to whether to host or play either on Veeky Forums or /qst/, allowing a schedule that fits them.

I have like three threads left till I wrap my own quest up, no way are my players going to migrate, and it's already too slow to finish in one sitting. I hope I'll get to stay here at least until I finish my current quest, if not I'll probably stop DMing for good.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a sticky. It could just be a regular general.

Don't give up on your quest! The only people you'll be harming by doing that are your own players.

Yeah, but that was already the case with hachi-chan, and that place was a fucking disaster. We knew what would happen with a separate quest board, since we'd seen it happen already.

It's fucked. If you ran a Quest there, it would be dead on arrival. You would have jack shit for players.

Add to how there are content restrictions, and you're better off running on user-kun.

I think a big point of contention right now is that /qst/ is mostly being populated by shitpost quests complaining about its creation, trolls doing non quests to make fun of quests, and smug antiquestfags being smug and claiming victory.

It cyclical.

Though presently on Veeky Forums as of yesterday, mass antiquest shitposts in quest threads were being deleted by mods.

Its only a trial board presently and most established QMs seem retisent to move there until they are forced to by mod action of bans, warnings, and deletion of quests on Veeky Forums.

There are arguments to and for /qst/ but right now there are too many smug assholes claiming its containment when a lot of quest fags are also fatguys who have opinons on Veeky Forums stuff and contribute to and will probably stay on Veeky Forums for those threads. Because its new and antiquestfags are so up in arms of perceived victory its a den of condescending "HAHA WE WON YOU SUCK" shitposting...

If its going t work as a board, it needs time. It needs time and people calming the fuck down.

Questfag and Antiquestfag alike.

I've not visited Veeky Forums since it became fucking choked with quests. I was dissapointed to find this thread.

You have your own board, now.

>content restrictions
No more than there was on Veeky Forums in general being a blue board.

>I don't know how to use filters
It's 8am, you should be learning your colors

It's not going to work as a board. You're looking at a malformed fetus gurgling "Kill me" and you're going "I think he's going to make it!"

I'm right there with you, user. I hope they start getting banned soon and Veeky Forums can go back to being about discussion and homebrewing.

Reminder that since questshit came about Veeky Forums stopped getting things done. It's a travesty and I'm glad to see them go.

Doesn't belong on Veeky Forums. Take it to /qst/. This thread should be deleted and the OP banned.

Why should I have to filter when you can just take your quest thread to its very own board?

Yes, experience has shown that in other boards but I'm just hoping it doesn't just flop over and die after the start. There is something worthwhile in a much slower quest environment. It's not for every quest or their quest goers of course but this way at least the choice remains.

Not exactly. I'd like to point to these two quests in particular as an example.

>>>qst/2903
>>>qst/2327

The mod, while not knowing what he did, did create a good environment for slow drawquests. I'm hoping to see more of their ilk.

No, I'm saying that if its going to work it needs time; not that its going to work. I'm running my fucking quest on here until I get booted over there you fucking shit licking douche trying to shunt your own words in my fucking mouth with your douchenozzel shit covered tongue.

Fuck!

And that's why there can be no peace, in a nutshell. In fact, anyone who's arguing in support of /qsg/ is arguing in bad faith.

I'll be less upset when you make a board for elf porn and art dumps too

This, just one thread on Veeky Forums, a good compromise for the antiquest newfaggots

>choked with quests
When /qst/ was created, you know how many quests were on the board?

Seven.

Seven threads of roughly 150 were quests. Yeah, I can totally see how that's 'choking' the board with them.

>How shit is /qst/?
About equal to a fertiliser truck.

New quest coming soon to Veeky Forums! Resistance Quest!

You'll play a single soldier, fighting as part of your country's resistance movement against an oppressive military regime. It'll be up to you to play a role in freeing your country.
Will you cast out the occupation forces alone?
Will you reach out to neighboring countries for assistance?
Will you accept the occupier's agenda as your own and fight to quell the dissidents and bring peace to your home?
Can you disrupt the Federation's war machine?
Can you free your countrymen from enslavement in the camps?
Can you reconcile different races and religions fighting the same struggle?
Can you keep your humanity and even find happiness?
Can you survive?

>>>>qst/2903
>>>>qst/2327

dammit. That should be:

>I took a garner at some of them and theres a marked difference in the speed of content and playstyle.
I don't have the experience to make that comparison, however I can understand what you mean regarding different styles of play and running. though the once a day or once a week updates won't work with the board as it is (see below.)

it has to be a sticky, thread older than 48 hours auto-autosage regardless of activity.

in all honesty I suspect a few of those may also be there for QMs to test the function of the board.

>If its going t work as a board, it needs time. It needs time and people calming the fuck down.
don't all things?

except that the /qst/ board isn't for discussions of quests, it's just for running them...

>Veeky Forums stopped getting things done
....I've gotten things done in the past year...
Lost Source
and
BloodBrew
and
The Facility

you just aren't really looking closely it would seem...

because a WQDT doesn't belong there?

take a deep breath man, it's just trolling.

I would play that quest.

>because a WQDT doesn't belong there?
No, it doesn't belong anywhere. Quests are bad enough we don't need your meta here too. Link all quests to some shit place off-site if you have to have a circlejerk.

No need to be so touchy.

I predict the board's death by the end of the week, at any rate.

>Because its new and antiquestfags are so up in arms of perceived victory its a den of condescending "HAHA WE WON YOU SUCK" shitposting...
I have never expected Veeky Forums to be this immature.

>>When /qst/ was created, you know how many quests were on the board?
>Seven.
>Seven threads of roughly 150 were quests. Yeah, I can totally see how that's 'choking' the board with them.
Have you noticed how the people arguing against quests use the same arguments every time?

>I'm a super oldfag
>but I never come to Veeky Forums because of all the nasty quests
>Veeky Forums is absolutely drowning in quests
>I can't see the front page!
Literally the same thing every time.

>....I've gotten things done in the past year...
>Lost Source

>it has to be a sticky, thread older than 48 hours auto-autosage regardless of activity.
Not on Veeky Forums they don't. Or they didn't as of a few days ago. Hell I've seen threads that lasted most of a week just this past month.

Not that I would expect a QTG to last that long.

It was actually five, some autist posted his filter.

>1d4chan
Doctor, I think my tumor is coming back!

It's unfortunately everywhere these couple of days. Check the 4plebs archives of the quests threads of the past day or two.

See how posts have been pruned. Thankfully the jannys are still working overtime, following board precedent.

Well, now that quests are going to die I can actually just stop coming to Veeky Forums all together. If all I'm going to get to browse is 40k, Elf sex, and people complaining about their gaming group or lack thereof, I'd rather just play video games

...

>Link all quests to some shit place off-site if you have to have a circlejerk.
Good idea, clearly there should be a discord made for the discussion of quests!
If it's not obvious, the exclamation mark denotes sarcasm.

I think hes referring to the lifespan of quests on /qst/. I remember reading the mangleger proposing an autosage after a certain period of time.

Sorry, its been a frustrating couple of days. You're right of course. And you are right of course, there likely are a few QMs testing the waters. If I have to run something there if we are forced over I am running something other than my regular thing first.

It has been getting a bit less mature lately, hasn't it? What happened to threads about sexy ladies devolving into threads about the complexities and comparison of medieval and roman empirical wheat distribution and economies?

I give it at least 3 before its certain to live or die

it pertains to Veeky Forums through role-play and collaborative story-telling. but it is not a quest so it doesn't go on /qst/

I've not posted them there...I don't know how.
here, have one/

>Not on Veeky Forums they don't.
oh, I had thought you meant on /qst/; my mistake.

That's a 132 too many. Off-topic is off-topic.

The big litmus test will be when planefag brings KCQ onto /qst/.

Of the big name QMs, hes the only one whos really all for it and now that LL has that archive up, he'll probably be doing his next thread there.

That quest sound interesting, but are we just a grunt or one of the higher ups? Is our country occupied by a foreign power or just under a tyranical local rule? Is there infighting amongst civilians and within our own faction? And how fucked are we? Do we still hold some cities and field an actual army or are we an underground movement?

and another, though I cannot claim full credit for this one. a lot was ideas had by others, but I stuck it together and the playtesters think it has potential...

as yet, I am not confident in The Facility so I'll not post it...

Of course, darling.

My question is how do we archive things now?

It's funny, but JQOP is virulently against it. I don't think he's ever expressed so much hatred for something before.

suptg, like always.

He's running an omake there later today, but we'll see if he runs the main quest there.

suptg added a /qst/ archive. If you're looking for a foolfuuka archive, none exist yet.

suptg

LL has been modding his archive so you can register threads from /qst/ as well.

sup/tg/ got an archive for the board running less than 24 hours later. thats all good.

...except that it isn't for Veeky Forums...

>He's running an omake there later today, but we'll see if he runs the main quest there.
He won't. If he doesn't get a thousand posts and hour he doesn't run at all.

Havnt followed JQ for a while.

Is wata still shitting things up?

Change of timezone for Wata, but the Quest has been stuck in the big final battle for months now.

Did they finally find Hecate?

Found her real-life body, but she's in a permanent coma. A lot of stuff happened after that. At this point, it turns out there's a White Joker and most of the villains and nearly all of our friends are dead.

Where did you stop reading?

I'm completely of the opinion that quests that started here, stay here. While suptg can work with the new board, you'll still need separate links to tag between Veeky Forums archives and qst archives.

Oneshots and new ones can go to qst IF THEY WANT, but honestly there's nothing wrong with waiting a few weeks for thing to die down.

Mods have shut up, so there's no way to really effect some of the smaller changes and they certainly aren't going to address the harder points made against them.

After Joker killed off the Jegan ECOAS type player that was an army by himself.

Where art thou review-user?

There are weeaboos who go to Japan and are horrified to learn that nothing they thought they knew about Japan is remotely accurate.

Don't be him.

Busy writing his review of /qst/ probably.

You'll be starting as a single man (or woman) fighting the occupation of a foreign power. You can either start your own movement to oppose the invaders, or join an existing network.

The army has been totally disarmed and placed in internment camps, following your premier's total unconditional surrender. The war has only been formally over a matter of weeks, but given the enemy held some 80% of the land and the capitol before the surrender, it was decided well before then. Your own nation were still using hand-cranked gatlings, while the enemy were closer to 1939 Germany, with a few inconsistencies.

I'm working on a glossary of terms right now. I'll post it here and on my twitter when I'm done. There'll be some light fantasy elements present, such as a nearby nation that's majority-elven, but mostly, it'll be grounded in reality. You can make most assumptions based on a real-world basis and I'll do my best to address the planet and historical and cultural differences in the glossary.

There are several more rounds of combat over several days, and Joker has to kill Iron Ogre. Kotone reveals in a vision that she's getting married to the White Joker at the end of the school festival, and Veeky Forums decides to renew their relationship with Mio but keeps sending mixed messages.

Volt Regios turns out to be a chick. We meet a very old WWII Player who turns out to be Rust Kaiser's creator and who reveals that the White Joker studied under him.

In Day 3, Joker has to fight Bishamon. He kills Bishamon's Hyades, and Bishamon just vanishes from the story forever. He leaves behind his broken badge and sticks the Apex Blade into the ground as a 'fuck you' to Joker.

We meet Mio's mother, the Chalice Queen, who turns out to have been the first Hyades. She has a plot to disrupt the cycle, but it's complicated and fiddly to explain.

At the end of Day 3, the Smilers drag the whole festival and everyone into it into the Red World. Hundreds die. White Joker turns out to be Naoya Shiga. The two of them fight, and they're equally matched. (Con.)

>It's rather shallow and pedantic
ReviewAnon(2016)

Sounds good, I'll play

Both of them fight to a standstill and are dragged into the abyss. Naoya turns out to have been torturing Mio, and wants Kotone to possess her. This is thwarted by the Chalice Queen's plan to possess her own daughter.

To psychologically break Mio, Naoya reveals that Joker was fucking Cybele. She takes it very badly, and has a complete breakdown. Joker manages to escape the hell-realm he's trapped in by being recalled to Cybele's demense.

It turns out Alura got there first, and she holds Joker down and rapes his soul. She's obviously very turned on by it, and she commands Cybele to gouge out her own eyes.

Joker eventually escapes, and Cybele dies in the process. He begins to mutate into a really fucked-up looking shoggoth form. Picking his way through the rubble of the school, he finds a dying Kazuya. The Hand of Midas infuses Kazuya and turns him into the nearly-invincible Player Daegal.

The two of them launch a fightback and eventually invade the Diadem with a team consisting of Armaros, Haze, mutated Rook, Daegal, Joker and Thief. They end up fighting a team consisting of Alura, Rust Kaiser, Bell Zephyr (Megumi), Inox Fang (Yes, THAT Inox Fang), Enfer (Ren) and Calcite Arrow (Bardiel's fucktard of a friend.)

A lot of people die and we're still at it.

>mfw /qst/ is dead on arrival and will be shut down, resulting in the three or four serious QMs that started there to migrate to Veeky Forums and add to the number of quests

This would be too good.
