I wasn't here for the chat so I'll take your word for it. Little bit of everything. Except the girl. Sex is always bad in fiction. No exceptions. Fox only. Final Destination.

Leaving soon, got a doctor's appointment at 11:30 am, and I'd like to have breakfast before going because that doctor tends to piss me off.
Soon as I get back, I will be updating...
I noticed some have chosen to stay with gamefaqs... I can understand I guess, although after yesteday's BS, and the fact that some of us are STILL getting modded with a bullshit "disruptive posting" excuse, I doubt I'll be going there.

lol, I got a disruptive posting thing for 3KL, too. I can't wait until the mod gets back on that so I can destroy him.
But. Stop with the guilt thing. You're more than a grown ass man. You're an old ass man. You should know a thing or two about rolling with the punches. The last thing on Earth I will ever do is let the events on a video game board phase me.
That being said, gfaqs is way more compatible with my phone, at least one of my voters has the same troubles. I actually do not even have the ability to post in my cyoa topic.

Guilt thing?
Are you referring to the "have chosen to stay with gamefaqs" comment?
Dude that's on you. I did wish we had solidarity on the issue though.

No, I'm referring to the "I'm disappointed you chose to stay here" thing you posted in my topic.

Are you feeling alright Mav? You've been to the doctor for quite a while.

The doctor's appointment was yesterday at 11:30 a.m.
He didn't give me anything for the pain (as most workman's comp doctor's will do). From there, I immediately went to my personal physician of over 30 years, and he gave me some good stuff. Toradol 10mg....
It's pretty good for when I have those bad neck aches that have hindered me in the past. But I think it also makes me a bit sluggish and drowsy...
Also, you guys got to give me a little time. When this happened, it really bummed me out. We had a good thing going, and they destroyed it for no reason. I can promise you, I'm not quitting, and the CYOA will go on.
I love writing it, I think it's a great way to pass the time, and I love talking ideas with you guys.
It's just, I feel like I got screwed over, and I WANT this site to succeed. We've got a bunch of support, but our traffic might have reached an all time high. In other words, gamefaqs won, over something so petty and wrong.... but whatever...
I'll be back, just let me get over it I guess. This was one of my few escapes, and I took great pleasure in doing it. They kind of ruined it for me, if only temporarily. I gotta get used to posting over here, and hopefully, we get more people in here.

I'm here. I know what's going on and everything. I'll even vote.

You see, it's not hard.

This site gave me the chance to read this cyoa from the start which was something i never got a chance to do in GF, you're writing is amazing i have to admit. I'm now fully upto date but is there no chance to recover the update between where 21 and co fight sasori for the first time and when madara kidnaps sasuke?

Thanks syco, you have no idea how much I love making you guys enjoy this.
That's a huge part of the reason I do this... Anyway, updating.

Updating. The words are music to my ears. How long? How long has it been since I could enjoy one of Maverickraven's delectable, 16,000 character long updates as a side dish? The main course? Don't even get me started on the main course. Minutes become hours. Hours become days. Days become months. Months and months of discussing. What do we think of what just happened? How will handle the current situation? What are our desires and predicitions for things to come? Let the wonderful discussing begin. Maverickraven is back, and he's back with a vengeance.

You look at the woman curiously. If this is a test, which you're sure it is, you have it all figured out.
"Very interesting," you say as you lick your lips flirtatiously. "Everything on the menu looks good. I'll take a little bit of everything, minus you. I'm hitched for eternity. Literally."
The woman throws the platter at your chest in frustration and walks off. All around you, the men and women that were having a great time get up and reveal their true forms. They appear to be human, but they have long, ghastly necks, at least 3 or 4 feet in length. Their heads are smaller, especially in comparison with the rest of their bodies. And their faces and mouths are misshapen, as if to mimic a dog's snout... Like a carnivorous animal.
"So... the mortal believes he has this figured out? Interesting..." a normal looking man in a very elegant suit walks towards you. "I can tell you right now young man, we're not animal spirits, and this isn't the Human Realm. You're dealing with the Preta now boy".
"I think you should mind your tone," you advise willfully. "I've done you no harm. And I know you can not harm me. Your false threats and feeble attempt at intimidation? It's all a poorly put together scarecrow. And this bird, doesn't scare easy".
You get closer to the man, who is surely a Preta in disguise. You reason that if you are too meek or humble, that will result in a failure, however if you're overconfident, it's just as bad. You can however sense the hunger coming from this man. He looks at you like a meal... Was this thing in front of you EVER a man? A strange thought. You look at the man in the eyes, showing your defiance.
"And let's not fool ourselves," you say with clenched teeth. "I've beaten all the realms before. I WILL beat them again. You? You're just a stepping stone. Not even a pebble that is brushed aside by my boot. So think twice before you call me boy again, I am surely ten times your age, at least. Don't let my young visage fool you, you betray your naivete".
The man is angry. Very angry. He sneers and narrows his left eye. He makes no attempt at hiding his ferocity. He hisses as he bites his lip, seemingly grabbing at thoughts before they leave his mind. He turns his head to the side and looks at you. You don't take your eyes off of him for a moment. Cool, confident, yet not overly threatening. You must maintain a middle ground.
"You will be a tough one to break..." he says with a sinister smile. He giggles, his tone turns into a very high pitch. "But we will try to break you. And when we do, you'll be passed around like a slave by us, mortal. Yes, your soul might be older than ours, but you're still just a human. Just a mortal".
"And you were never a mortal? A human? You hold much disdain for them... Perhaps... you are jealous?"
"That's absurd!" the man rebukes in disgust. "I was never a hairless ape. I have always been a Preta".
"And you're happy about looking like a mutation between a giraffe and a really ugly horse with serious birth defects?" you quip wryly. "It's your eternity. But know this... This mortal you underestimate so deeply, THAT will be YOUR undoing. I might be only human, but I'm about to beat you twice".
"Then what about we do this, right now," the Preta suggests as he loosens the buttons on his suit. "You're going to come across harder tests at the top. And I got a doozy of a problem for you. You're so determined, you feel so confident, what about we just skip the protocol, and I make you a deal. You're a smart man, I'll give you that. You've figured out the Animal and Human Realms already, you've also managed to somehow decipher our Realm here as well... Very well done, no one has ever done that so quickly. It took you mere seconds... How about I give you a test. If you pass this ONE LITTLE ordeal, you're done. You'll have achieved enlightenment in this realm, and you can move on... That is... if you're not too afraid".
"This is another trick," you say with confidence. "You're asking me a loaded question. There is no right answer. If I say yes, I'm being too cautious, if I say no, I'm being too bold".
"My... you ARE good," the Preta smiles at you as if he's studying a newly discovered species. "So, what do you say?" ====== Clutch Moment A: Take his offer, solve his "ordeal" B: Tell him you'll take the way everyone else reaches enlightenment C: Refuse to play his games outright D: Turn the tables on him, you offer him a challenge, if you win his one riddle, it's over. If you lose, well... you better get used to your surroundings E: Free Will
