Abba as Grand MasterI've been thinking, mainly brought out by Matas' creation of a new GM, that this would be a good idea. When Abba is killed in whatever fanfiction she chooses as her canon death, we should elect a new Grand Master from the Council who would logically be a choice at that year, whatever it may be.
Hear me out before you condemn this. This new Grand Master, perhaps, lets say, it be Padme, would have as much power to Abba as the Queen does to the Prime Minister in England. Padme, assuming it be her, woulkd not be an admin, but would be the GM IC, with Abba still the most powerful OOC.
Padme would take over much as Saber did for Chick. What do you think?
|
Dakoth
|
no. unless its me.
(((c'mon Xander, this is me we're talking about? don't tell me you expected something productive)))
|

And a vote for Dakoth is a vote for SaV.
*Condemns idea*
But seriously, this could work if only for our Jedi Order's history line. Of course, if she were to pick a new GM, it would most likely be someone already on the Council, that would make the most sense to me at least. But, I'm just curious as to why we would need to do this?
|
Jedi Abba
|
Well Yes, we would need a new Grand Master, after Abba's canon death. But...I vote that I get to keep the pic...and that I get to choose the new IN CHARACTER...key words in character, Grand Master. 
|
Lord Vexen
|
I vote Dork of Mordork for Grand Master

It's all just another step in the future of our "Story Line."

Dakoth
|
pfft I think the grand master title should go to nellie.

Lol. thanks for the vote Steven, but it probably wouldn't be me.
I'm fine with the idea of a new IC GM, as long as Abba still is the OOC GM.
Rive would most likely by the new IC one though, and that's who I'd vote as well.
But just say Abba died "50 BBY" and Rive became the new GM after she died. Then any RPs or fanfics or anything like that before the time of her death would still have her as the GM.
Get what I mean?
|
Xander Vos
|
Yes, thats what I mean. Abba would still pretty much be the one still calling the shots, but whoever takes over would get the rank of GM. Rive would be pretty ancient if we decided to make it him.

Hey, I made that joke first.
|
Sephiroth
|
Why would you vote for Rive to be GM when he's never on?  I'd vote for Dork or SaV.
|
Jaden Nightsaber
|
This has nothing to do with the power over the boards. It's about who would succeed Abba after her canon death. And I guess I'm out of that run. So go Rive!
|
Xander Vos
|
After Abba's canon death, I actually thought we'd go with someone who'd be alive then. If Abba dies as an old woman, and Rive is around forty when she is in her twenties, he'd be pretty dead or a very old man when she dies. I thought perhaps Padme, or someone who, if they join the Council, will be a lot "Younger" and so can take over as the figure head.
|
Dakoth
|
Unless someone KILLZ abba. which would be a lot more interesting than her just keeling over.
|
Sephiroth
|
Yeah, cuz Xander could kill her and then Rive could go GM, but still Dork has my vote.
|
Dork of Mordork
|
Koras is alive far into the saga. And is alive during the Darth Dude stuff. (Read Will's fanfic/s)
|
Dakoth

freakin tortuga's and thier long lifespans -_-
|

Well, since Abba's death occurs in one of my stories, I shall take some of this into consideration. Fear me, Jedi. Fear me.

And too bad Vikro is set in his 50's when Abba is so young. He's more or less ruled out of the In-character GM spot.
|
Sephiroth
|
Well, I could run things as GM. I should be like, I don't know 30 something when she dies.
|
Dork of Mordork
|
What about Xander? His character lives pretty far past Abba, and Koras I think. I think his character could do it.
|
Xander Vos
|
Well, I could, but it would all depend on me being on the Council or not, and seeing as I need to be on the Council for real to be on the Council in a fanfiction, yeah.
Leon, what gives you the idea that I would kill Abba?
((Brian, I created the whole Dude war in the first place. ))
|
Kisuk Kolar
|
I don't think Padme because she would also be really old. If you look in the timeline, she was alive during the Great Jedi Purge and when Anikan became Darth Vader.
|
Xander Vos
|
Really? Oh, ok. Hmm, well, hopefully asd our time line progresses, more people will be born later, so we have people who could do it, and are still mature and responsible enough to do it.

True, and I'm not denying it. All they would haved to do is refuse to endorse your story, and your no longer controlling them. That's all I meant.
|
Darth Shadow

Well, control is a very strong word. I like to believe I work with people like Abba to form an agreeable basis for their characters and they wind up falling in love with the portrayal and all live happily ever after. I am in no way crushed when elements of my story are not recognized- as I am certain the end of Aftermath will not be.

just to point this out, but "Him" is frequently used to portray the devil.

Sorry Shadow, I was thinking of Scion's post when I said that, confusing it with a post you had made.

To take this thread only a little further off-topic:
No, Dakoth. Actually, the Christian sign of respect is to apply all things associated with their male deity with a captalized 'h.' One would not write: The enemy of Him (Jesus) is He (Satan). Just doesn't work like that.

yeah, he doesn't control me.

And the other 10% gets the stamp of 'Creative License'. After all, sometimes 'fact' has to be obscured for enjoyment.
On a more topic related note - I could've see Koras as Grand Master before the great loss he experienced in tLoES (which I believe is canon for both characters). The direction the character took beyond that point would suggest he may no longer be in the right frame of mind for the job.
Then again, Yoda was a crazy old hermit and he did it pretty well .

Yeah so I was totally making out with your mom the other day.
(I know my intellect is astounding.)
|
Dork of Mordork

Yeah, the marriage thing is canon for both characters. (But the real realationship is over, and has been.)
Idk if I see Koras is sort of a "crazy hermit", but Will still does a good job with it.
I hope Koras'll get his act together later in the story though.

Well, he doesn't control you without your permission, but saying he doesn't pretty much have free reign over your character would be stretching it... After all, you refer to him as God so often that its almost like you worship him.

Yes, I have, which is why I included that in my post. Another consideration is that perhaps he just doesn't feel comfortable publically disclosing it, which I also included in my post.

So.....if Abba dies who takes over?
|

Haha, I just noticed this thread.
But I have no clue. It would make most sense to have Rive be the next one, but like others have said he would be really old or pretty much dead by the time Abba died.
