We all have an idea of how it turned out, but i was wondering how disappointed you would be if I skipped to the morning after?

Comments

Ariel

I'm fine either way

thaughton2

Damn flat 50-50. I did not expect that.

Emily Gurnavage

Honestly the way the scene was set up I expected to skip to the morning and hear about it from rumors and any of the team that possibly heard it from where they were. Its set up for a skip to feel very natural. And its a bar fight, not exactly high stakes. Curious to see how the votes land though.

Cyrus

46 votes, sill 50-50 lol

Scott Crawford

This is so hard, because I love your action scenes, but it also doesn't really advance the plot unless you show William improvising new techniques mid-fight.

Chris

With the way you wrote the beginning of the chapter I wondered if you planned to just leave it at that. It would be amusing to just skip it. But I also like reading will break people lol.

Thomas Issa

Fight, but add something that develops the plot, using the sliding tricks, projectile stomps

Jonty

I voted to see the fight but I changed my mind. I think it would be better to build the mythos of what actually happened surrounding it

Joshua Gunty

Author: "help me decide a thing" Audience: "alternatively, what if we didn't?"

Apotheosis

I'm torn, it'd be cool fight, but the morning after fits the William Oh legend

Cyrus McEnnis

This for me comes firmly under the heading of "Never tell a story teller how to tell their story". I'll offer spelling checks, and what I see as logical inconsistencies, or possible scenarios. But it always strikes me as the height of arrogance to offer advice to someone on how the story should be structured so that it meets my biases. Which is a long winded way of saying "Whatever works best for you is perfectly fine"

Eli Loeb

Really don't know it depends on how shocked they are by his tactics

Edmango

I think it's funnier to skip to the night after and something like will kept getting drinks after round 1 so he blacked out and we just keep getting small plot threads that came from this with will going "ugh did I kick your ass at the bar fight too???"

Eli Loeb

Maybe in reference or flash back noodle incident style

Patrick

I think it would be better to start up after the end of the flight with Will walking out of the wrecked tavern. That intro with the rule change is so good it should stand on it's own for imagining the actual fight

Josh Cothran

That’s like asking if we want more story of an awesome story…how anyone says no baffles me

Crispined Glover Potato Snacks

Opening with a scene of Will and loth explaining to the 6th floor's Baron-Admiral how , technically, Will didn't violate Flotilla's Terms of Service when he won the Poly-Duel would be both funny and an efficient way to introduce this floor's baron.

xyphion

In my humble opinion, the last chapter is really good on its own. It's not always good to see how the sausage is made.. err the laws are made?

BoadBoad

Move on, I'd prefer an immediately post fight clean up scene to a morning after but I prefer a morning after to a full fight.

Darkdej

I would at least like to have a pretty solid description of the scene after the fight happens. A short coverage of the notable events that happened. i.e. Will stealing weapons or him remembering one of the improbable dodges he did using his phantom hand

Redc05

I am thinking as someone we probably is going to read this in one go, the fight is good, the plot advancing seams better in part because of how long the plot as kinda stoped/slowed down, but it as not been so long to someone who reads this without waiting for the chap to release

Emily Gurnavage

Are you also voting, or just commenting? I still see the same 4 votes that were there 30 minutes ago but over 20 comments lol. Wondering if its a me problem.

Akkido

I think the excerpt at the beginning of the chapter is already very good. I think it would be more fun if the fight just stays implied.

Brian

How does the fight contribute to or advance the story? The Intro to Ch. 91 has already done the work, and I think it's enough. If Will is going to discover a new ability synergy in the fight, or you're going to use the fight to introduce a new character that will eventually join the party, then sketching it out in more detail seems worthwhile. Otherwise, I'd prefer for the story to pick up with Will explaining where he got a bunch of new relics from the next morning to Loth... or maybe he's using the spoils to barter for flour.

BoadBoad

I see 211 total votes. 38%/62% for moving on. I think it's a you problem. You have to full refresh the page for votes to update.

Daemion

Exactly!

Emily Gurnavage

Thanks. I did try refreshing it a few times and removing and re-adding my vote, but it did not work until I finally closed the app entirely and reopened it. Now I can see em.

The Human

I voted to move on but agree for the final version for book sales

SunderGoldmane

I want to read about the fight in piecemeal through pre chapter hype posts or meeting one of the people involved in the fight talking about it later on. Or maybe the rest of the crew hears about it and are talking about it when William walks in on the conversation. Stuff like that would be more fun to read about than an actual play by play of the fight itself.

Domy

Will kicks ass and new rules are needed in the aftermath. No need to show it all, except the aftermath or maybe the captain of the flotilla being informed of the incident as part of the report on the new arrivals

Cory C.

The rule changes already give a good description of what happens in the fight as kind of an after action report, it may make sense to have that at the beginning of the next chapter instead but an actual chapter on the fight would kind of make it redundant. Edit: To add a bit. It's a low stakes fight against a bunch of nobodies, we already know Will wins hard enough that they need to change the laws so what would be gained from going over the fight instead of leaving it to our imagination and advancing the story in other ways?

Josh Cothran

You act like it’s an either or scenario. You think Macro writing that scene would stop him from writing whatever else he sees fit to finish the story?

Axim

If we don’t get the fight can we get a short reaction convo or gossip from a witness?

RageBone

i never really knew how "good" will was at knife fighting. He could suck against someone with skill.

Cory C.

Not at all, Macro has always done good fights but the way the question is asked sounds more like the intent was for the rule changes to cover the fight already. If Macro wants to write a fight I'm sure he will, but writing a fight we know the outcome of seems redundant unless he has an idea to explore.

Emily Gurnavage

Thats partially what the start of the last chapter was, but another short description wouldn't be bad. We got like 3 paragraphs about all the laws they had to change to account for Will's knife dueling spree and creative interpretation of the laws as written. It was just in advance.

Aloysius

Considering the addendums from last chapter and that it will be similar to the arena fights, maybe only show him finishing up with the last one and then leaving the wreck of a tavern?

Jeff Wells

I'm a bit on the fence. I enjoy the fights, but we also just got done with a big fight arc a few chapters ago. If like to see a bit more character development / plot advancement and get a more meaningful fight later on.

SunderGoldmane

Post fight scene with him sitting in a busted up tavern and Loth talking legalese and helping codify the new rules with people who are there as adjudicators because the fight was so big?

Dlandis

I'd kinda rather see lots of obscure references later in life pointing to the fight than have it set in stone. Also, found the Fair Princess by macro on amazon today... I hate that I only just saw this...

Raivshard

Basically this, yeah "Hold my beer" "Okay, where were we?"

Dax

I just want lots more legends to spawn out of it. Like, these are party leaders. They're going to be both tough and exaggerate the feats of anyone that beat them.

Summers Mori

Honestly, I feel that the intro you had was more then enough. Unless there's a good reason, lets just show the reactions the morning after.

Ral

I read it like the chapter is what happened to make the William Oh amendments.

Baged

Honestly, something I often miss with this type of storytelling is seeing the protagonist's struggles and awesomeness described from other characters' perspectives, which you’ve done really well so far. I imagine the chapter starting with a conversation at the bar, where they talk about how many practically ran into his knife, and where Will complained that he wasn’t allowed to duel multiple opponents at once... Awesomeness.

Aceluke

I’d be fine with either, but I wrote skip as I like plot progression xD

MurkyTruths

I only want to see a fight if there are oiled shirtless men

StrollingEye

465 votes, that's huge! Are all the voters paying Patreon folks, or are they the broader membership too? I never see over 200 'heart' likes on one of Macronomicon's posts ...

Macronomicon

I think this was just to the $10 and up tier.
