It's called "irony". Or "a joke".

I think that an overwhelming majority of the hashtags I have ever typed have been mocking some aspect of hashtags.

A suggestion: put in one character that is controlled by suggestions, like in a normal suggestion game. This would help keep those on the waitlist entertained.
Actually, one of those was about to be introduced soon.

Once they get to the area that would best be called a "town" then they'll pop in.

How much of this have you planned out in advance? Just curious. Really considering joining but I feel like coming up with a better char idea first.

Edit: Person the Technowizard/Engineer/Industrial/Gadgeteer (currently undecided on rubric, will edit sheet later when I am. In other words, don't add me to the list yet.)

Yeah this will probably relegate me to crafting duty but hopefully later on in the skilltree I can start doing crazy things(of course if skill points are as rare as they used to be odds are immediate benefits would be preferred). Rubric is hard to decide on really. I'm split between all of those rubrics, but I have no idea what any of those would actually do for me. I also doubt I'm going to get any help on the matter, based on the game itself(but if I can please do), so if anyone would have a preference for one of them let me know.

That amount I planned out before the thread was made? Almost none.
As I go along, I think of things to add (usually I brainstorm ideas during the slow periods at work) and ways I could make them fit in.
I've actually already thought of things that could tie into the actual game, but I'm not sure if/when I'll do those.

Honestly, though, I've spent the most time just thinking of what all people's characters could do.
I spend maybe 4 hours of thinking about how Elephant's power would work, and maybe 2 minutes on Dave's.
I was actually having people develop skills as the go along like how Ciro first got his Whack! skill, but it made more sense to me that those two would already have their first power. Francis still hasn't learned his, though.

If you want, I can make powers for myself. It fits my theme, and they won't be all that overpowered.

Just like TWoOtA!

Don't worry too much about continuity. It's probably a different cycle anyways.

Well, technowizard it is. Hope I don't regret this. I suppose we can unlock more rubrics later anyway, though I doubt it'll be easy.

Also not planning things is perfectly fine. I'd probably wing it too.

Ok, guys, I'm sorry to say this, but I'm ending this game.
I've put my reasoning for this in this post on The Derail Thread.
I hope you guys understand.

If you're ending this, I must know:
