Hey guys, this is Fade, or roxymorons, whichever you prefer.
Lately it has come to my attention that a few of the forum users, bumbumbummuffins and cloverspade and kirby163, have been posting a lot on the scriptwriting board. This would be fine if they just had some plot ideas that were directed toward our writing staff, but i have also found some messages that say things like,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So...shall we start thinking of the plot for the first episode?"
-cloverspade
" Oh dear...
Er... What you seem to have there is a completely independent story, mostly driven by OC's, using magic that doesn't quite fit with established canon.
Please remember that Professor Layton is the main character, and should have an important role in the story. At least until we finish a season or two."
-kirby163 (in reply to one of our main plotters telling our scripting ideas to the non-skype users)
"Wait, Warren is a villain? Oh... Huh.
We could make this work, but I'm still worried about Warren overshadowing the other characters, if only because I know how excited people get with their OC's. I will still be extremely wary, as Warren seems to be wandering into wish-fulfillment territory, and wish-fulfillment is but one step away from Gary Stu.
Be careful please."
-kirby163 (again in response to one of our plotters telling the non-skype people the new characters personalities)
" I might have to post the ideas tomorrow because I still have alot of editing to do. >_<"
-cloverspade
"Okay.
I don't mind the idea of this being our main mystery, in fact I think it could work out very well. I do agree that we need to move the focus away from Warren and Lydia."
-bumbumbummuffins (in response to cloverspade writing out the whole "new" script)
"We need YOUR HELP with plot ideas!
Coming up with a plot with only three people working on it is a very hard job.
So to all those interested, please come join us on the Plot/Script writing board!
We want to hear your ideas!"
-cloverspade
"WHAAAAA. AND I WAS SO ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT DOING THIS. TT_TT Its really sad to see a project like this with so much potential go to waste..."
-cloverspade
"Thank you! We're glad to have you on board!"
-bumbumbumbmuffins
"I think that before we start any scripting, we should come up with the rest of the story and fill in the plot holes. All we have so far is a bit of the college idea and a sort of outline of the beginning and backstory. If we make changes, it would mean rewriting the script lots of times, so I think we should all work together to figure out the story first."
-cloverspade

I really don't mean to be rude guys but none of you are on the scriptwriting team. The googledocs thing was correct, we have the first draft of the first episode done, and you guys are NOT dictating it, its okay to message me and the other writers with possible ideas, but saying that you are writing the entire script when we already are done, is a bit upsetting to us since we already worked our butts off writing the script. Also, when you guys ask for a recap of the plotters group and Elizabeth gives it too you, it was rude when you were calling Warren a gary stu, one he is not, two he is NOT YOUR CHARACTER, he is our main villain, and our character.
Before you start acting like you are head of scriptwritting and we are dead, maybe you should have tumblr messaged me. We are active on out skype almost every day and I apologize if you guys don't have skypes but we are not making a tinychat for your convenience.
I again apologize that i'm being so rude, but because you were so rude to Elizabeth and Warren, i think that all three of you need to back off a little bit and let the scriptwriters do their jobs. If you have ideas it's okay to share them but we are not posting the script publicly or giving just anyone access to the document for privacy reasons.
Sorry for this long post, but i felt that this issue needed to be addressed.
If you have anything to say about it please email me at eemasutter@gmail.com or message me at roxymorons.tumblr.com
Thanks!
