So I see Neo Sex Mall, a.k.a. BiteQuest demonstrates his ability to do worryingly compelling worldbuilding about any dumb concept you care to name once more, is back.

What the hell's going on, again? I backtracked as far as Pektil is recording nonspecific jabber for CULTISTS, but there are so many hundred words about oversized dicks I can skim through to remember what the deal with the duelling dragons was. And the wiki's too busy being obsessive over hawt cameos to obsess over plot summaries.

>>72626
He's on a secret spy mission for some reason or another. It's not really important, ok?

No skill thing for being awesome at sucking dicks in a car, while doing pottery?

>>72626
Let me help you with some Word of God. To help. I didn't even notice this btw.

Pektil took a mission from some kind of cult to go record data of an unspecified nature from some special party close to the edge of the Mall. It was never said whether it was voices or what. The cultists are forbidden from going onto the first level for causing trouble.

He has the ulterior motive of trying to find out any kind of info he can use/allies he can gain to help a) figure out what happened with Po and Sommer, and b) figure out a way to get Sommer away from Po somehow.

He's got names and stuff for the dragons, and general ideas about how they feel, so he could theoretically try to contact one or more of them later. The other dragon he met, Frost Mother, really didn't like Po.

I think that's most of it.

Also I think I'll just make a g-doc with all of Pektil's inventory and link it, and change it as his inventory changes. y/n?

Also for real this quest could really use some wiki love. I will reward players who go actually put some updates on that wiki page. It's not like it doesn't have a lot of characters or an actual plot worth like, being able to quickly recap.

>>72790
Ta for the recap.

>Also I think I'll just make a g-doc with all of Pektil's inventory and link it, and change it as his inventory changes. y/n?
Maybe a subpage on tgchan's own wiki, like say 'Neo Sex Mall/Inventory'? Then it should always be as accessable as the quest itself. (Also, Google Docs is the most hateful thing ever.)

>>72818
But that's like, a non trivial amount of work for me. :C

>>72830
Even if http://tgchan.org/wiki/NEO_SEX_MALL/Inventory already exists?

(I don't have time to populate this or the Plot Summary right now.)

>>72920
I don't even have a wiki account. Doesn't somebody have to approve them? Yeah I will handle the inventory though. I have the current one in a file I use when I'm running the quest.

>>72933
Approving accounts is totally a thing I can do if I can remember to and my arcane powers haven't all atrophied away to horrid little fleshy stubs from months of not caring about the wiki.

For Neo Sex Mall, I rolled back and did a write-up on all the dragons. I'm posting it in the /dis/ separate from my suggestion on bite's request.


Here are the dragons we know about.

Becoming-Dragons: DnD nerds turning themselves into dragons are the lowest tier but they're still big-whigs enough to get invited to the party. They socially outrank Frost Mother but she's a real dragon, so maybe they'd look up to her. But so is Po, so w/e. We don't have any of their names.

Drar: Magma-chick dragon. Female. Owns half-naked human slaves. Sexually restrained, sexuality unknown. Absolutely hates Po. Best chance for starting the alliance.

Nergil: Blackeye. Female. Sexually restrained, sexuality unknown. Severe dislike for Po, shows hints of wanting to move against him. Good second dragon to talk to, especially if Drar is on board.

Ishtiga: Sexy-serpent. Male. Gay. Dislikes Po, sees no options to move against him. If Drar and Nergil are in, is likely to join against Po.

Morensu: Fartybutt. Small gem dragon. Male. Disinterested in Po. Unlikely alliance target. Possible risk if approached. Something about being busy with his "operations."

Anahaga: Platinum Pimp. Male. Gay. Sexually promiscuous/open. Has no apparent problem with Po. Poor alliance target.

Mardahal the Historian: Big Gold. Female. Possibly friends with Po. Possible enemy of the alliance. Need other dragons to weigh in on her.

Getting almost no suggestions, after this last update I was ready to end the quest. With only the one suggestion to tell Frost Mother everything, (exactly the wrong thing to do) I was going to write out a denounment with pictures. It wasn't going to be the worst ending: The cult's plan is exposed and Sommer is freed from Po, but Pektil is permanently exiled from the mall.

I like writing the quest, and I know some people like reading it, but having no suggestions (or rather, just coracle suggesting) is really discouraging, and if you want me to keep updating, please keep suggesting. I just thought you all should know.

>>75251
I also do realize that it's mostly my fault that a lot of people don't suggest, even the ones reading: It's long, there's a lot to keep track of, and I took some extremely long breaks. That's all on me. You can't remember a lot of the details from like, a year ago, and it seems like the plot is kind of serious.

I mean, yes, it basically is my fault. But whether it's my fault or not, it's still like, kind of a waste of effort if it's me and one other person just playing with each other :v Anyway, don't worry, I will actually END the quest rather than letting it fall into the graveyard at this point, and I'm definitely not blaming people for not suggesting in a shitty text quest.

I love NSM Bite, I would be sad if it ends before we can get huge.

(a better wiki article might help)

I know some people are re-reading the quest right now to catch up, also I don't want to post a million times but there is interest.

I usually suggest (under a different ID) but I've been abstaining when it gets into the political intrigue stuff because I'm really not into that at all, and it seems like there are other folks that are more eager and are doing a fine job with it.

Wiki article is in progress and very nearly finished

Yeah uh I was pretty damn sure that telling her everything was not a good idea! I really like Neo Sex Mall, I would be sad if it ended. It's just hard for me to suggest for sometimes. I have to scroll back and look things up. A better wiki article would totally help.

I'm just sayin', Pektil has many more women to bang before the quest ends.

>>75257
That (save for the "other ID" part, obv.)

Oh god that looks awesome. Yeah, a cast list is good. Also I requested a wiki account so I can edit the inventory article on the wiki as it changes, and post things like his earnings vs his rent and shit like that. I have it all in a document and I THINK my current dollar amount is right. Plus I usually update on my lunch break or when I'm checking my emails and junk at work, so having the inventory somewhere I can access when I am not at home is a definite benefit.

Anyway that looks excellent.

As a final note, though, my only way to judge interest is with suggestions. If you don't want to make a choice on the "political" updates, at least post something saying your thoughts or just... something. Anyway, thanks for the show of support. I have a regular work schedule now, so updating around once a day really shouldn't be a problem anymore. (at least that often)

Also yeah, text quests might just be my new reality. It's hard for me to get time to draw, and I work super late. Oops.

On making the political decisions, I also don't want to be the only one making them, though. I almost ended the quest because I was posting in a vacuum and there was no one to counter my suggestion until some people finally stepped up.

It's a lot of strain to feel like Pektil's fate is resting entirely on my shoulders ok. I don't want to be the reason Sommer gets killed ok ;2; only you can prevent dragon vore

>>75282
I'll try my had at political intrigue, so now two of us can have the fate of the world to carry.

Something like Lahamu would be nice to see again, if it was a bit more directed. More goals besides wandering.

>>75279
>Also I requested a wiki account
Should be approved.

>...and I THINK my current dollar amount is right.
Don't you mean inch amount?

updated inventory.

I really like Survivors. And not just because it's bunnies and "foxies". The goals seem obvious to me. Learn all the skills. Survive, find a nice place to live. HugBeat the bugs, save the humans, start a human zoo. I also like the subtle Rockman references. The direction isn't so obvious, but only because you haven't given us a goddamn map in ages! The characters are awesome, and the whole awkwardness of robots designed for silly shallow human desires being the only ones left to pick up the pieces in an apocalypse is just an awesome premise.

Karen's Heart was pretty good too, at least as an experiment. Would have made a good "one shot" quest. Escape the hospital, ride broomstick naked into the sunset. I loved the use of blood red as both an eroticism and a plot indicator.

I uh... didn't like Bite Quest much. Something about the timing, the way the wizards revealed themselves. It just seemed to wander a bit. And when Spikesby became a not magical critter it was just like... what now? That dream world outside the shield everyone was just sort of down and depressed, and we wanted to do something about it, but there was nothing Spikesby could do. I think this is your longest quest and for that alone it's pretty impressive. Just... perhaps high fantasy is not your forte.

Your greatest weakness is that you doubt yourself so much. Don't treat the suggesters with more respect than you do yourself. It just ends with you feeling frustrated and having to draw things you don't feel right about. That's how I see it at any rate.

In that respect Neo Sex Mall is awesome, but Pektil is way too much of a pushover.

Oh and Crowmanticar was Best Quest Ever

>>75373
I am going to finish survivors. It's very close to done, so I just need to actually have time to draw. Which is impossible, apparently.

>>75397
This news pleases me greatly.

>>75402
Yeah, I know my art is pretty terrible. I am not surprised that people are pleased I don't have time to draw.

>>75403
It pleases him that you're going to finish it.

>>75404
Yeah, I know. I was just being a jerk.

>>75405
:V

By the way, whatever happened to Sammy's Adventure? Is that ever coming back? It was my favorite quest of yours and I've been hoping for it to continue eventually.

I think it's been months. Many multiple months, since the last time I updated anything.

It really bothers me that I have all these unresolved stories out there, but finding time to quest is basically impossible what with my being a lawyer and all.

I was thinking of just like, writing endings for Survivors and Neo Sex Mall, so at least there's an ending, and maybe holding out hope that I could finish Sammy's Adventure one day.

Is this something I should consider, or is it heresy to take away your agency and just end things?

I mean, maybe in a year or something I'd be able to find the time to actually update things, who knows? Should I wait or just like, would people rather have an actual ending to something?

>>77020

I would say you could come up with an ending and retcon it later if you wanted to resume, but the trouble with that is if you wanted the players to proceed toward that ending, you'd kinda spoil everything. You'd need to come up with something new if you ever did want to resume in that case.

On the other hand leaving things hanging when it might be such a long time before anything resolves, if you're ever able to continue - if I were in your position it'd be disappointing to me. It might be worth it to just wrap it up if you're looking at a year or longer passing before you can do anything else.

(Just my two cents, not an expert.)

I would rather have some actual ending arrived at by player action later than some arbitrary stop now, since the latter basically has no value. I can't think of any work of fiction where a "writer dies/runs out of time/runs out of money/gets bored and just caps it off" abrupt ending has actually been satisfying closure even if it technically ties up plot threads.

I'd think it better to finish the quests you're thinking of just flat closing so you can focus on the ones you do wanna do?
Basically, wrap up the quests and move on to the ones you're more interested in. Probably will make for a happier Bite!

Haha I said it would be like, a year.

>>86393
And it was! Good foresight.

WOW it's been over a year since NEO SEX MALL updated! Expect at minimum an update every other day and at most several a day on weekdays. Probably no updates on weekends.

If any brave wikinauts want to go refresh things that would be cool. Sweet. Awesome.

Who is around who played before?

>>86469
I have!

>>/quest/599857
PEKTIL YOU FOOL.
SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU HIT AND RUN.

>>86470
You are a CHAMPION

>>86473
You, I don't get what you're saying! OH WAIT! HIt like had sex with how he had sex with her displacer blinkgina then he never called or nothin!

>>86474
Seriously. That little Mok is playing with, like, so many hearts and other assorted warm and rhythmically pulsing organs.

>>86469
It's back baby.
Time to cry softly into my pillow I mean play.

>>86481
I can only hope each and every person that is reading the quest is crying softly into their pillow wondering where they went so terribly wrong.

>>86497
I think it's when we didn't just grab hold of Zephyr's Zephyr and fly off into the sky in a magical trail of ADVENTURE and kinda gross stains.
