SSS Ambassador: Captain Dinghy’s Logbook

Day 11 
 
Still at a full stop. <a href=/explore/cruise/porthole.php>We continue to be attacked by horrors from the deep.</a> Though we are a passenger vessel, we are lucky to have passengers on board with good battle training and experience. They have managed to hold off the first four assaults, though new eldritch abominations now approach and each is more powerful looking than the last. The MS Oracle has kept in constant contact, but she is still many hours out. 
 
Rejoice in Shinwa, mother to us all. 
Grant us protection and mercy, 
and lead us to the light from darkness.

Sorry for the whole ordeal, thank you for the arm warmers.

I'm super confused right now. Is there someone else (not counting myself or HippyKat13) still posting comments or were the last four comments in a row all from her? Seriously. I have a few users blocked, so if they're posting, I don't think I'd see it.

HippyKat13, I don't really know how to respond if I'm wrong and there isn't something missing. It seems like you keep ending our... whatever this is, like you're ending it in a classy way that actually shuts me up, but then you post a bunch more crap that sort of undoes it.

For me the timeline is: I post a negative comment, you respond unfavourably, I respond unfavourably to your response, then you posted a nice sort of truce and I was like, that's mature. And then you post some stupid Spiderman thing and I'm kinda meh, whatever, I'm not going to keep bitching. But then some others had to pipe in, like the Ned Flanders of the internet, so I felt compelled to try to shut them up. And then again, you stepped in and made a comment I found classy -- BTW, I sent you those arm warmers -- so I shut up. But now I'm back and it's like you're arguing with yourself like some kind of schizophrenic.

Anyway, I'm done here. Thanks for the boots.

I wasn't even hushing you, i was just stating that you sounded upset and nothing more. What you did was take a grain of sand and made it out to be a boulder. I never said I like to govern comments, and I don't. Quit making this bigger then it should be, and move on.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Anyway, try to at least have fun(minus this, of coarse), ignore the stuff that you don't like, and move on. Good day :)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Also, I'm surprised you are still mad and actualy took the time to type that up. After all, this is the internet. http://us.123rf.com/400wm/400/400/shakzu/shakzu1109/shakzu110900003/10471559-puzzled-man-at-computer-shrugs-shoulders-and-expresses-lack-of-knowledge.jpg">

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh, hi it's you again :) i actualy agree with you, even though you still sound angry. Anyway, have a nice day, I just want this "argument" to end on a nice note :)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

If there's one thing worse than battling and pseudo-prayers, it's assholes who complain about complaints. Seriously, you feel the need to police other comments and tell people which comments are OK and which ones you disapprove of?

I said I don't like battling or reading bogus prayers. Why anyone has to take issue with that -- why I can't just express my discontent without being hushed -- I'll never know.

Idea: Invisible comments for news posts. Users can submit negative feedback without a chorus of "Omg don't be mean, calm down, don't say anything bad about anything in case other people like it!" following.

Delivers MREs to the battlers You have to eat! There are those of us who cannot fight, but there are other important roles in supporting the mission!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Couldn't have said it better.

Theres all sorts of events. Puzzle, HA, Forum, clicking, and battle. People spend millions if not billions on battle pets and weapons and with the systom remade staff probably want to see how the new system works and that means people need to battle. Just be calm , and wait. The event will continue.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

i trained a lot and my pet is tier 2?! &;_&; sheesh, i need better weapons.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Looks like my picture didn't go through, lemme try again

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I agree with you. Not that the battling hasn't been bad, but I just want to go to Shadowglen now. I'm getting really bored of waiting for the post where we can continue with the cruise. DX

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

sees newest comments . . . WELP, NOTHIN' TO DO HERE.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

To the people complaining, the battling is an optional portion of the event. Don't like it? Don't do it, just stop raining on the battler's parades, they just got their whole system changed, and this is a perfect test of the system.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Could we just get on with the Cruise PLEASE!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

We. Are. Going. To. DIE. /flails around helplessly

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have to agree with HippyKat13, you do sound a little bit butt-hurt :P

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

You make me laugh. Anyway, all I was saying, this is suppose to be a fun event and I agree, the battling is annoying, but no need to cuss over something so trivial. Also, I wasn't trying to be coy, I was being obvious. Hope you have fun the rest of the tour!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Wow, you were so coy about saying my name, I didn't know who you meant at all! You are so subtle and eloquent. You must write for The New Yorker.

Anyway, one negative comment is hardly butthurt. I don't like his shitty prayers because they're cloying and pseudo-religious, and I hate that saccharine, Christ-y bullshit. I'm not whining endlessly or insisting that Subeta do a better job of being secular lest they offend me further. I'm just stating a fact. The oh-Shinwa-save-our-balls, forever-and-ever-amen, etc crap is stupid.

Battling, also, is shitty. OH NO MY ANUS MUST BE ON FIRE HOW COULD I SAY THAT

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

The 1st 2 were a piece of cake even to my newest lowest level pets, the next 2 were fairly easy also but these last too are just too much even for my highest pets. Maybe if I could afford better weapons they might have a chance.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Alas, for the Bonesaw is too great a foe to down with but a tier 7 pet. cuts down Moradon again But any of it's lessers I shall continue to slay until this crises has past, defending both Living and Unliving alike! /cheesy hero speak.

All that aside, great artwork on these challengers, guys. The difficulty curve is fair, too.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sucks because I only have a tier 1 pet. xD Good luck battlers. PROTECT ME OH GOD OH GOD /flails

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Bonesaw is adorable 3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I want a new god, one who can actually be omnipresent and all-powerful COME ON NEWT LORD! STRIKE THEM DOWN WITH YOUR STICKY HAMMER!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

You guys, you're not missing the battles, you can still do them. Go here: http://subeta.net/explore/cruise/porthole.php

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

gasp Kyogre had babies and now they are all going to destroy us? :O

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Shoudln't we be praying to a goddess who isn't FREAKING HELPLESS when she leaves her shrine?

I'm in with Apollonia.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sorry, *some one. Touch screen :p

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm surprised someone cough blocks blocksblocks * couh* is actualy annoyed with fake preyer that goes with this theme. Spme one gets butthurt a little too easily ;)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Am I missing out on any achievements or anything by not battling?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I can't seem to get the challenger message to come up, and they're not showing up at the coliseum. ._.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I like sharks.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Just finished defeating Moradon 10 times with my Tier 8 pet Deminex. . . Might be time to invest in some more weapons. lol

Going to try my luck with Bonesaw. Wish me luck.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm finding these newest ones to be a challenge, and even though I don't think I can win, I'm still enjoying it.. and will keep training for the next event.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Since I'm first here on Subeta, I train my first Pet Marreta every day, as often as possible, but still there are most opponents far beyond my opportunities! More easy and medium opponents please! So it s no fun! I'm training my pet for years now and still I'm only able to do far less than half of the fights, and even there it is often impossible to win more than once or twice, that's frustrating! Please remember: Most likely most users can't participate when you just focus on the hard or even impossible opponents! I don't want to say that it is unfair, because there is one Opponent in every stage, but it is not well thought if most of the users crash with the second and a only a few can get the rest! Some exclusivity is always great, but at last when it comes to battling, there is just too much.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Just cant battle..I am new and it will take me forever to get to those levels @

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

WE'RE DOOMED. DOOOOMED!!!

More opponents that I can battle please!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I agree with also - many people are not interested in the battling.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I thought my pets were decent for battle. I WAS WRONG.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't know what sucks more, battling or the captain's annoying-as-fuck prayers.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Click the link to the porthole (http://subeta.net/explore/cruise/porthole.php). You will get them as challengers. Then just go to the battle coliseum.
