My Wicso, episode 21 (part 2) (suggestions allowed!)

Last part: https://www.reddit.com/r/WICSO/comments/1vk7qa6/my_wicso_episode_21_part_1_african_exploration/

In the last part we saw >!exploration and expansion in Africa, the last Korean tribe fall, and the Arabian peninsula be fully filled in!!< Now let’s get started on this episode!

First thing is in the Brittney controlled regions of the UK where we see…

…see it collapse. It completely falls into chaos, the nations inside themselves even being unstable.

We see Brittney/North France be able to push and isolate Cornwall from the rest of their rebellion… but besides that… they can’t really do much. There are civilians taking arms, soldiers rebelling, they can’t take back the land!

So in the end, we see them all just settle down and make a peace treaty where all the rebellions get their independence. Some are more favorable to Brittney, some aren’t. It’s all just like one big, messy, family.

Moving over to Japan, it’s time for our daily Japan update! (I forgot we did one last episode so I already made it, too late to change back now!)

And this time, we see Taiwan declare war on the peanut butter team!

They quickly capture most of the areas, as they have fronts on both sides.

And… then they are done for.

In the peace treaty, we see full annexation!

Now moving over to the Middle East, the leader of the Caucus country just did something really bad. They insulted the deceased wife of the Turkish leader. Apparently, the Turkish leader didn’t like this, which is so surprising! /j

And the Turkish leader, being on of the leaders of the Triangle alliance, kicks out the Caucus country.

And days after this, the Maroon team invades.

Pretty quickly they establish a strong front up North, pushing right near the Capitol.

But the Caucus country decides they need to take out the Maroon team’s exclave so they don’t have another front to attack from.

And in doing so, they essentially doom themselves as the far south of the Maroon team’s invades the southern regions and their capitol is captured.

And this leads to the country’s collapse.

In the peace treaty, we see the Maroon team take almost ALL the land, leaving the successor heavily crippled.

Now for the final event of the video, we move over to Oceania.

Where explorers from the Philippines begin exploring more islands, and even stumble onto a big one!

And after more exploration, they realize it’s one island. They quickly take the land, planning to send out more scouts later.

Now everybody, that’s all for today! If you want you may leave suggestions in the comments, I will use them if I think they fit with the story!

Now that’s all for today, Dozard‘s done!

My Wicso, episode 21 (part 1 - African Exploration) (suggestions allowed)

Last episode/part: https://www.reddit.com/r/WICSO/comments/1vixzz3/my_wicso_episode_20_part_2_expansion_and_division/

In the last part we saw >!many countries expand, join alliances, and the German invasion of the Dutch.!< Now let’s get into this episode!

To start off, we move over to Africa where exploration is about to occur.

https://preview.redd.it/rq487eot4gih1.jpg?width=1822&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cee1074b80becc9cd8e14da8d0991470cc984428

After the first exploration, we see the South-West Caspians explore further

https://preview.redd.it/i9wtaeot4gih1.jpg?width=938&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2c12c147a9668abf4a5d220c11a724e4d2234bad

And after doing so they take a whole bunch of new land.

Moving back over to Northern Africa we see the Pink, Turkish, and Greek teams all take interest.

And they proceed to expand, Greece the most, Turkey next, and The Pink team/Lybia last.

Over in Asia, China declares war on the Korean tribe.

Now these people were already beginning to develop into more of a official country, but China didn’t care. They just wanted land!

So they continue invading up the coast, cutting off almost all sea access.

Eventually the tribe is reduced to just a piece of what it once was

Until it fully capitulates.

In the peace treaty we see China gain most of the land, but the Yellow Sea country actually gets a decent amount. Now China says it’s a gift, to strengthen their “bond” but that is not the case. Taiwan and them know what it truly is, but neither shares the truth.

Looking at alliances, we see the Rectangles get a new member.

And this member is Hainan, wanting to go against Taiwan in a possible war too reclaim their old lands. This isn’t too surprising, but also not expected. Hainan always had “ok” relations with most of the rectangle alliance countries, but nothing that would lead them to join the alliance. But it seems the land loss pushed them over the edge.

In the Egyptian-Sudanese country, we see something occur.

And what we see is them unite with Turkey. This is a big win for Turkey, as they wanted this to happen, and they got it without a war!

And finally, moving not that far over to the last of the Middle East that isn’t controlled, we see a new country form.

This country is Yemen, and we see them control most of- well- Yemen, and also a bit of Africa. We also see Turkey, Central Arabia, and South-West Caspia expand.

And actually, that’s it for today! And on this post you can once again make suggestions!

That’s all for today guys, Dozard’s done!

My Wicso, episode 20 (part 2 - Expansion and Division)

Last part: https://www.reddit.com/r/WICSO/comments/1vdmjcs/my_wicso_episode_20_part_1/

In the last episode we saw >!many countries expand, the Germanic Union take out some Danish tribes, and we saw new countries pop up in Arabia!!< Now let’s get into this episode! (Sidenote, I forgot to save an image of the world map after this part and I almost immediately started working on the next part, so no full updated world map today :P)

Because of the difficulty of trading through India, we see many countries come together to start exploring Central Asia.

https://preview.redd.it/u2srl0krv5ih1.jpg?width=1806&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78deaff1c8de109eb499a227b28588535783ea17

https://preview.redd.it/snut1xjrv5ih1.jpg?width=1846&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5cece11a94f7e4096edfeb83b69f17d1c8a7580

Upon this exploration, we see expansion from The Yellow Sea country and the Dark Purple country. We also see the formation of 2 new countries.

In Central Asia, after the exploration, we see many countries desire to expand.

And expand they do, as pretty much all the Chinese countries aside from the Yellow Sea country expand inland!

Not long after this great expansion we see a new, pretty weak, but giant country form. They follow a religion distantly related to southern Korean beliefs, but distinct in many ways. This country is filled mainly with Chinese, but also has smaller populations of other peoples.

Expansion is on the minds of Europe and the Middle East, as they go further north into what we call Russian lands.

https://preview.redd.it/dsggqzkrv5ih1.jpg?width=1863&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9f0164c98483c6e722735b955b6ebdba4b38b1b6

Many countries expand a new Norwegian state forms, allied with the Northern French mainly.

https://preview.redd.it/l1vsdjkrv5ih1.jpg?width=1691&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ea8281b025cf183e793a22d4a9d700e7a5371b4

We see the Red, Blue, and Pink Vietnamese teams all join the Diamond alliance, and the Taiwanese and Chinese join the Triangle alliance, despite being on the other side of the known world.

https://preview.redd.it/r7ee4kkrv5ih1.jpg?width=2080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc4f9a877d56fbedf5f92783c333c1b8ac419656

In Europe sides are finally chosen as most of the continent is divided, all for different reasons.

Now this was a long time coming, the parties involved knew this would happen.

The Dutch knew they weren’t safe for long, and unfortunately their letter of Alliance didn’t make it’s way over to Norway or Northern France.

The Germanic Union is very successful as they push right near the Capitol.

And JUST as the Germanic Union takes the Capitol the Southern French swoop in and take the Southern lands, much the the German’s dismay.

This is the peace treaty, in which we see the French gain a province and the Germans gain the rest of the country.

We’ll that’s all for today folks! Now I’ve already made almost all of the next part, so no suggestions for that, BUT you can make suggestions for the episode after!

That’s all for today, Dozard’s done!

[Spoilers for Queen of the Dreadzone] - Character analysis

The ways to write Chloé Bourgeois:

So to dive right in, we all know where Chloé came from. And abusive mom, and an enabler dad. They both had their hand in creating this child in-show. The mom provided a bad example for Chloé, and the dad was too cowardly to be a better father. Instead of a healthy childhood, Chloé grew up thinking THIS is how she SHOULD and CAN act.

When she eventually met our main character, Marinette, she hated her. She bullied her, and one day even went so far to trick the guy (an idiot mind you) that Marinette liked into “pranking” her with a box full of spiders. Marinette then almost fell to her death, and somehow didn’t sue Chloé.

Now in the beginning of the show, some of these events weren’t canon yet. Chloé was just a brat! No trauma, nothing. Just a brat. Then in S2 they decided to make her mother emotionally abusive. Chloé began to go on a redemption arc… until the S3 finale where she went back to evil. Like PURE evil, no hint of the slowly redeeming arc that once was. No sense of any arc.

In S4 and S5, she’s just a bully. A bully. She becomes a pawn in another manipulative classmate’s game, then after briefly staging a coup, she was taken to New York with her mother. >!Then she came back briefly in S6 and was STILL evil.!<

That was her backstory. Now let’s get in the two ways I think she could’ve been written.

Option 1 (Redemption):

This is the classic. The one everyone proposes, the one that seems like it was led up to. The pros for this are as follows:

  • Make her less 1 dimensional
  • Show that people can change
  • Abuse isn’t something to be glossed over (emotional or physical)

Based on all the info and some of the themes in the story, this makes the most sense. She was written to be sympathetic in S2, and was starting to show signs of growth.

I would say one point against this plot is that Chloé didn’t change and become better in her civilian form, not that much at least. For moments maybe, but not enough to truly seem strong, but also enough to be very confusing when she became evil again.

I’d write her similarly, she gets the Bee miraculous, and much of it stays the same until sometimes in S3 she gets told by Ladybug that if she is to keep the Bee miraculous she has to be nicer, stop causing akumatizations. This would be a whole episode, where her deeds might backfire and she accidentally causes someone to get akumatized. Maybe it’s her butler. In the end, she apologizes deeply and says sorry, allowing him to reject the akuma. Ladybug asks her how it felt, and she smiles, saying it felt good. She stays active as a hero for a while until S5 where the miraculous get stolen, so one so forth yadayadayada S6 and idk what to do from there. However, that would be how I’d write it.

You could also do a point where they fake a public situation where Ladybug says she can’t give her the miraculous anymore and Chloé understands. Therefore, she could keep acting as a hero.

Option 2 (Fall from grace):

Now hold on- HOLD ON! I SWEAR THIS MAKES SENSE-

Now one of the main problems with Chloé is that her redemption arc was slaughtered mercilessly right? And one of the main things the fandom can’t agree on is if it made sense right? Well here’s my proposal.

Remove the emotional abuse, instead say her mother died or something so it’s trauma instead. Then, remove the weird retcon in Derision.

Chloé starts out the same, and even gets to S3 being much of the same. But one thing we will remove is some of the more sympathetic moments. When she apologizes to Ladybug for stealing the bee miraculous, it’s slightly forced and she is looking away. Each time it’s slightly more genuine, and sometime in S3, after she blows up at Ladybug for not giving her the Bee miraculous, she gets akumatized. She gets defeated of course, but afterwards she has a complete mental breakdown. She starts isolating herself from everyone else, we see her less and less in the show, until one day Hawk moth approaches her, with an offer. An offer to defeat Ladybug. She accepts, and Miracle Queen happens. After the battle she walks up to Ladybug, and gives her the jewels, and just walks away. During season 4 she becomes less “mean girl” and more “bitter villain” so she starts actually trying to ruin Ladybug, and Marinette. She stops being nice, and starts genuinely trying to make people hurt. During the Season 5 plane scene though, we still see that moment. A moment of regret, a chance at redemption, but it goes away. And after that, we never see her again. (Also side note, we don’t introduce Zoé. Just make Aurore more present - or you can introduce Zoé, but don’t give her the bee miraculous)

Now those are MY thoughts on how to write Chloé. In short, either go through with her redemption, or make the fall make sense.

What do you think?

So… I don’t think everyone’s being honest about Polus.

Ok hello everyone, I‘m Dozard87, I usually play Skeld but recently I decided to try Polus.

Now for a while I’d heard that Polus was a really good map. And while I’d played some games there, I didn’t know the map very well. I’d also heard that Polus was a great place for some really intelligent players, so I decided to give it a shot.

Idk what kinda lobbies you’re playing, but from what I played, Polus is just as dumb as Skeld. Now the map is better, but some of the players… they’re honestly pretty bad at the game. Now it is true that there are some genuinely good players there, but I encountered many bad players, maybe even more than on Skeld.

Now Polus is a great map and I prefer it over Skeld in some ways, but like I said, y’all are lying. Stop saying “Play on Polus” as a counterpoint to us saying Skeld has issues with dumb players, bc Polus isn’t that much better.

Of course, you are perfectly allowed to enjoy Polus more than Skeld of other maps, but don’t act like it’s some kind of savior to the Among Us community.

And all this being said, I want to make it clear, I genuinely enjoy Polus now. I’m just a bit fed up with ppl saying “Play on Polus” as a solution for everything.

Hey so could we do this

I think we should keep V!Avid as a character, but I think we need to reclaim him, make him the community’s own.

I propose Avix as the community V!Avid name, or V!Avix so we don’t have to think of Avid every time we talk about the character.

The character is different than the creator, and we need to remember that.

We can‘t let Avid an Marm take that away, they were good people at one point and we can take this creation of Avid’s and keep it as our own.

So my suggestion for a name is Avix. And yours?

My opinion (Yes this is my own comment)

Can us Ninjago fans stop hating on Dreamzzz now? Please? At the very least don’t hate other people for liking it.

u/Dozard87 — 2 months ago

Which do you prefer?

These are the 3 double winners, Joel and Scott won a Main and a Special, Martyn won 2 full seasons.

Which of their seasons do your prefer? For me it is:

Scott - Last life (I haven’t seen the season but it’s a full so it’s probably somewhat better)

Martyn - Limited life (He didn’t have much of a presence in Past but I’ve only seen bits of Limited so maybe I shouldn’t be one to talk)

Joel - Nice life (I love Wild life but you can truly see his INSANITY in Nice life…)

But what are your thoughts?

(Also side note but there is a season between for each of their first wins:

Scott - Pearl - Martyn - Scar - Joel

and then their second wins are one after another:

Scott - Martyn - Joel

kinda funny right?)

This adds so much context (Chained titans spoilers)

>!Thoughts after rewatching the bubbler after watching Chained titans!<

>!In the Bubbler (from S1) Nino goes to Adrien’s house to try and convince Gabriel to let him have a party!!<

>!After failing to do so (unsurprisingly) he goes to the park and this is what he says…!<

>!“Adults always ruin everything…”!<

>!And in “Chained Titans” we find out Nino has he constantly hears arguing and fighting. He wears headphones and blows to bubbles to cope with it. So this line isn’t only him being mad at Adrien’s dad, but also him partially projecting. His parents refuse to make up and it’s probably frustrating. When he’s akumatized he says…!<

>!”Kids need freedom! Fun! Let loose and live it up! Adults are controlling and bossy.”!<

>!Now these lines don’t perfectly match to his parent’s behavior, but one could interpret it as how they act towards EACH OTHER! They keep trying to control what happens. They won’t make up.!<

>!But anyways, that‘s my theory.!<

Forgotten life needs more recognition

Why does everyone keep forgetting about Forgotten life? It’s the best April fools special!

Let’s all share our favorite moment in Forgotten life! Mine was when Jimmy came back to life after everyone forgot he died. How did Etho forget that kill?

Wait… didn’t Etho kill Joel? Or did Joel kill Jimmy? Darn it I can’t remember.

New role unlocked: The Spirentist

So I was killed while looking at vitals, and when I became a ghost… somehow I was able to look at vitals? Like not just the icon- I could genuinely see them. And I couldn’t haunt.

Not only that but it held up for multiple rounds, so that was weird! Thought I’d share it with you!

Gamemodes and variants

This post will be for discussing unofficial AU Gamemodes. I would like to standardize these more in the community.

And just a reminder of all Gamemodes (official and custom):

Classic (Normal Among Us)

HNS (Hide and Seek)

SNS (Shift and Sneak)

VNS (Viper and Sneak)

PNS (Phantom and Sneak/Poof and Sneak)

0cd (Kill as quickly as you can w/ reporting)

I believe that‘s all!

Now let’s talk Variants and rules.

SNS:

Classic SNS: SS INTO YOUR TARGET, NO REPORTS, NO IMP VENTING, ONLY SAB COMS, MISKILL = STAND 10/15/20SEC

Modern SNS: SS INTO TARGET, NO REPORT, NO IMP VENT, ONLY SAB COMS, NO DL/COM FIX KILL, MISKILL=STAND 10/15/20SEC

Simple SNS: SS INTO YOUR TARGET, NO REPORTS, NO SAB, MISKILL = STAND 10/15/20SEC

VNS:

Classic VNS: NO REPORTS, NO SAB, DO TASKS QUICKLY

“Viper and Sab”: NO REPORTS, ONLY DOOR SABS, DO TASKS QUICKLY.

PNS:

Classic PNS: NO REPORT, ONLY MOVE WHEN INVIS, ONLY COMS SAB, MOVE = STAND 10/15/20SEC

Lights out PNS: NO REPORT, ONLY MOVE WHEN INVIS, ONLY LIGHTS SAB, MOVE = STAND 10/15/20SEC

Lock in PNS: NO REPORT, ONLY MOVE WHEN INVIS, ONLY DOOR SAB, MOVE = STAND 10/15/20SEC

(There are also variants adding No UL/DL kills to each of these for PNS)

0cd:

Classic: DO TASKS QUICKLY, IMPS KILL QUICK, ONLY COMS SAB

Classic+: DO TASKS QUICKLY, IMPS KILL QUICK, NO SAB

Please let me know if there are more variants and gamemodes I’m forgetting! I really want to standardize this! (I always ask “Oh what variant are we playing?” and most have no idea what I mean by variant)

Changing Skeld 1 day at a time (Day 5)

Thanks to u/der_impostor for the idea!

Also, sorry this one took so long, I was trying to get it to look right and was really busy today.

So, similar to the “changing the airship” posts, each post for this will have the top comment added to the map. I think I might do this on LevelImposter, so try to keep it possible inside that.

Rules:

  1. Suggest 1 change per comment (Unless they are related; You could ask for Caf to move to Storage and Storage move to Caf, you can’t ask for Caf to be deleted and to switch Admin and Coms)
  2. You can downvote and upvote other comments, and may upvote your own.
  3. Try to keep the suggestions reasonable, and not completely illogical.

Changes:

  1. Moved Security closer to Admin (It took the place of O2 so I moved O2 across from it)
  2. Made Caf smaller (Not asked but I removed the Vent there too)
  3. Added Mira coms and Doorlogs
  4. Added Kitchen (Lower half of Airship Kitchen cause I’M NOT DESIGNING A CUSTTOM KITCHEN EVEN THO THIS WAS STILL A LOT OF WORK)

I (Dozard87) am trying to find a player named “Vicky”

So me and some other people online play some SNS games every now and again. We used to invite this person named “Vicky” but after a while they just kinda… disappeared. I don’t know where Vicky is now, but I hope they’re ok. Please let me know if you see them in game, and tell them that we (Dozard87, Pookie, and Detecturve) have missed them.

They wear a Orange hair cosmetic, and I don’t remember the rest of their outfit.
