Talk:Collaborative Writing Project: TAO: Rize of the Ying-yang

Fix the Bios
Can someone fix the bios? Thanks. --ScorpionTail (talk) 17:06, September 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, quite confusing when he have no character background to go off. Rainbow Shifter 17:52, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your input guys, but these were the bios given by the creators of the characters. We put them up exactly as is to preserve the spirit of the master's creations.

 * But those are the characters from the Red Bat project. Rainbow Shifter 18:32, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Rainbow Shifter,

I'm afraid I'm a bit confused. Which characters are from the Red Bat project?

The original synopses given for the witch and the buddhist maiden were the Vanarchist and the Girl respectively (Anonymius (talk) 19:19, September 13, 2013 (UTC))

Oh I see, thanks for the clarification, it must have been fixed by another staff member- sorry for the confusion!

Clearing Up Confusion
Is there a way we can clear up confusion without violating any rules? --ScorpionTail (talk) 21:34, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Girls or Samurai?
Which category is this?

TheReturnOfTheKing - O_o I'm watching… 21:45, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Girls. Think you can contribute to this story? --ScorpionTail (talk) 21:46, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Definitely, but I was looking forward to the Samurai tale.

Inconsistency
Every since Zero Gravity made his contribution, everything began getting complicated. Seeing as he wasn't allowed to post like that, can the staff do something about this? --ScorpionTail (talk) 22:30, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Contribution in past plot
Zero+Chemistry+

Your contribution, the last post before the chapter "An Arrival" started, was added after the story had already moved on. The rules say that new contributions are to be added after the most recent post, otherwise the later contributions might make no sense.

Someone needs to delete that post. --ScorpionTail (talk) 23:00, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

Shaping Up Nicely
This story is shaping up surprisingly well. If we keep this up, it just might surpass Red Bat. --ScorpionTail (talk) 06:00, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Agreed, and if it's going this well, can you imagine how awesome the Samurai story will be?

TheReturnOfTheKing - O_o I'm watching… 16:56, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

It'll be a gem. :D And I have just the right plot and scenarios for it, too. :D --ScorpionTail (talk) 16:58, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

don't these elements go more towards the Greek concept; I heard that the Yin-Yang aligns with fire, wood, water, earth, and metal, it's pretty much what puts them in the Onmyodo thing.
That's incorrect. The Japanese five elements are the same as in the west, with 'void' or 'sky' being the equivalent of 'aether'. (Anonymius (talk) 10:39, September 14, 2013 (UTC))

That is exactly right, Anonymius. --ScorpionTail (talk) 10:40, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Mitrægaëyia
It seemed like some of the contributors were unaware that the main characters had just been transported to a magical world, so I decided to make it more clear and give the world a name. How do you like the name Mitrægaëyia? Doesn't it just seem awesome? Don't you hear that name ring with exotic, magical wonder?

TheReturnOfTheKing - O_o I'm watching… 16:55, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

It sounds awesome, King. It really does. --ScorpionTail (talk) 16:57, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Erika/Julia
Alright I'm confused. Earlier someone named the witch girl 'Julia'. Then another character looking for her Tao deck named Erika came up at a completely different spot and joins the group later. And then some bozo goes up makes them the same person, what's up with that?--Zeromaro (talk) 22:50, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

We were hoping that the original author would end up changing Julia to Erika, as the name stuck after awhile. --ScorpionTail (talk) 22:52, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

But isn't 'Erika' a villain who made a deal with some kind of demon god at a completely different place or is someone gonna change her name too?--Zeromaro (talk) 22:54, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

No. One of the contributors had made the witch Erika after he posted in between posts, and the name stuck after some time passed. Seeing as more people were using Erika more than Julia, we were hoping that Julia would be changed to Erika. --ScorpionTail (talk) 22:56, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

The who the heck is the witch who made the 'Devil's Deal' with Asura?!--Zeromaro (talk) 22:59, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Erika. --ScorpionTail (talk) 23:00, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

How can she do that in a dark cave when Erika was with Mibu at a shrine location at the same time? This is making less and less sense!--Zeromaro (talk) 23:02, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Ah. I have an idea. We make Erika have a clone of herself. --ScorpionTail (talk) 23:04, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

Maybe a doppelganger or a copy* of her made by the Elemental Demon Lord?
 * A version of her made by her negative emotions during the time she was imprisoned. --ChaosWyvern-i (talk) 23:42, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

That sounds awesome! :D --ScorpionTail (talk) 23:43, September 14, 2013 (UTC)
