If the team votes on it, I will pull my posts to a... solo and finish off what I intended to do. What that, I will complete all of my loose ends. Then, I will step back and become a reader.
Grimm, doc, do you want to do this all democratic? Than lets do it all that way, bitches.
Vote #1: Should my posts be pulled to a solo thread because they are not "main story posts."
Vote #2: Should Grimm quit?
Vote #3: Should JD quit?
Public voting. None of that private crap.
Voting is something we should do more often,. So that nobody can say that " the majority agreed" with this or that.
So my answer are "no" to the first, and"no, but they are obviously entitled to do what they prefer" to 2 and 3.
Also, the better specify my position about the rules: I agreed with that since the beginning. But there is something to add, altough it applies to Pro, and not to Doc and Grimm: many of us did many observation to the various rules, proposing little variations, often just of semantic (sp) value, but in the end nearly no one of that variations has been accepted, and the rules have been posted as they were proposed, with just the addition of TTT last rule. That's not really democracy, at last how we intend it around here.
Aside that, and going to the meaning of the rule, I think there is a substantial difference between plots regarding the EPS , the Order or a solo Vanguard character, from a secondary plot involving Vanguard as a company. I agree that those should be, whenever possible, be reserved for the beginning or the end of the story, but in this specific case it's easy to see that it would have had no sense. When the members are away it's exactly the moment in which Vanguard has its defense down, and that's the moment to strike. It adds an interesting twist also on how the Vanguardians away should feel, stuck in the middle of a battle while their headquarters is attacked (if they have the chance to know). Vanguard is one, and what happens to Vanguard goes in the main story.
