So, how has your RPing experience been with Kimblee so far - good, bad, aggressively mediocre? Here's where you can tell me! I'm always striving to improve, so feel free to crit as much as you like!
Things to possibly offer crit on:
+ Character Voice: Is his dialogue appropriate for his character, and does it sound like something he would conceivably say? Am I off in terms of slang usage or character-specific terms? Have I been calling your character by the wrong thing entirely (using a name instead of a title or the other way around, etc)? Is he being too antagonistic? Not antagonistic enough? Is he too vague, or hitting your character over the head with all the subtlety of an anvil tied to an oncoming train at a time when that would not be appropriate?
+ Character Actions: Are the physical actions I'm describing logical and...well, physically possible? Are the situations that I'm utilizing in posts reasonably in-character? Is he treating your character in ways that are consistent with their CR, or has he been acting strangely toward them for seemingly no reason?
+ Tag Content: Am I giving you enough to respond to? Am I giving too much by overloading with dialogue or descriptions? Am I being too vague about the direction of a thread and causing it to meander around aimlessly, or does it feel like I'm going the other way entirely and trying to direct or force our CR?
+ Other Tagging Problems: Do I frequently miss the point or make stupid mistakes while tagging? Has there been derpy grammar, unclear phrasing, accidental godmode battling, things in action brackets that cause a tremendous WHAT THE HELL response, or the like?
...or it's entirely possible that you just really liked that last thread we did and want to tell me. That's perfectly cool as well!

(Anonymous) 2012-07-11 02:26 am (UTC)(link)wouldn't zap cannon be too high of a level move for kimblee to be spamming a bunch when his power rng was only level 3? it's not a big thing or anything, but as the event is just kicking off and you're the first post about it, I just think level consistency is gonna be important, especially when the initial post said level 5 would be required for moves liked fire blast if you were using fire and such
sorry for nitpicking like this but it just struck me as odd when I saw the post and I just wanted to chime in now rather than later.

Kimblee's level is actually consistent, as he's not the one using Zap Cannon. He has a level 100 Pokémon that's capable of using it, and that's the one firing the attacks from on high. Mod permission has been granted to allow Psychic-pokemon to relay messages to the teams from the trainer, from a distance; he's using his Gardevoir to accomplish this.
The lesser attacks - Spark and Thunderbolt from the second location - are his; Zap Cannon is coming from one of his high-leveled Pokémon as a way of drawing attention off the fact that he's basically enjoying himself personally frying the crowd. Does that make sense?

I'm glad the explanation works, though - have fun!
