Who wants to be captain?!

[third_liberator]

For the record: not Tyr.

I think we should figure out which characters would want to be the captain and maybe what their qualifications are (or what they'll say they are...), so we can kind of stream-line the process and worry about getting overwhelmed with threading out everything during the day itself.

Also, any ideas of how the choosing should be done ICly?

[chinagirl]

WELL Kagura will claim herself as the captain, and throw a fit when no one accepts her because she's a brat and really doesn't have any skills as a normal human so... :'D

[onlystarabove]

There's going to be a huge argument between these two as everyone else ignores them.

[shipwrecking]

sit down daughter-chan >8[

[fontastically]

I agree on sorting out who would want to be captain and narrowing it down in qualifications.

I guess I imagined there would be some means of voting voting on voting after some sort of squabble because the group that has been brought together has both rather cooperative and... rowdy sorts. And I suppose it would have to be rather quick as so someone has some bit of power to direct early on.

[third_liberator]

Sob, there are probably plenty of rowdy characters that want to be captain (as we can see!), so there'll probably be some fighting... But Tyr wouldn't mind trying to get everyone in order so they can get business done.

I was thinking that voting could even work like it's done in school clubs, where the candidates leave the room (and some can totally spy anyway) and the others just raise their hands to vote for whichever candidate they want. It's plausible and have several ways to go wrong!

Miu is going to try to name herself as captain. She'll use stories she's played out in RPGs and Mario Kart to back herself up without explicitly saying they're video games. Heads up on that.

[third_liberator]

I really hope someone will point that out just because it would be funny. |D

[neverdanced]

ICly, I think Steve would do well. He's a natural leader and all. and Captain America

I don't know how well that would go, considering he's so new and no one really knows him yet.

Qualification wise, he's planned and carried out dangerous military missions and has organised a group of superheroes to help defend NYC and defeat aliens.

Nazrin will actually put forth Murasa for captain because she was a captain. Of an actual ship. With a crew. And she's currently about the only person on this trip that she will trust and listen to.

That is even if Murasa doesn't nominate herself (which she might, IDK)

Re: Who wants to be captain?!

[third_liberator]

Tyr wouldn't nominate Murasa, but she'd have his vote because she's his boss she's the only one he knows that's actually qualified from the start. Unless she says something incredibly dumb or a seemingly better candidate comes along, his vote is pretty safe with her.

NAZRIN WHAT A BRO /sheds a manly tear

haha yep she's nominating herself! lbr who thought otherwise

[failblazer]

Mokou would back this decision

good life choices

[slushfund]

HIRUMA +1 FOR MURASA, SHE IS AN ACTUAL SHIP CAPTAIN.

[copia]

+1 on this. Kaede has met Murasa (although she doesn't know she's a captain yet) but hearing it would definitely sway her to throw her vote Murasa's way.

[booyakabunga]

Provided that both muns are up for it, my vote goes towards some combination of Steve and Murasa for the job. Maybe one can be vice captain?

Mikey doesn't have CR with either of them, but will likely be swayed by the fact that they both are "captains" already, sort of. Additionally, their personalities will seem dependable to him.

[extremelycute]

In all seriousness, though, I'd rather have a captain who is going to be active. It seems like a pretty important role, and I don't know everyone's activity patterns.

[eastmontecarlo]

Macau would volunteer on the basis of age and an ability to solve disputes really well (and he kind of IS an island so he has plenty of experience with the sea), but he'll try to work on soothing tempers regardless of whether he's captain or not.

Also he'll... likely vote for everyone so everyone feels included. Sorry, world.

Re: Who wants to be captain?!

[shipwrecking]

NOW IN THE RIGHT SPOT

Welp Murasa is def nominating herself in! I am actually out of the country rn, but thanks to the haze I have a lot more free time than i thought id have so I should be more or less available for this! But there may be a four day void while I'm in Thailand. what is my schedule gonna be like, ~it is a mystery~

I don't mind if she isn't voted but icly she'll be likely to refuse to listen to anyone else who is voted captain.

[concealings]

Luke wouldn't be nominating himself because ewwww power and he's only five so who would vote for him anyway—but he would likely end up voting for Murasa because of the whole experience thing unless someone else managed to sway him. o7

Re: Who wants to be captain?!

[recognizeme]

Sealand would definitely think he should be captain! He has probably the most experience on the sea. >> You know...being a sea fort and all.

[slushfund]

i nominate hiruma as a first-mate.

he's a phenomenal strategist, he'll work his ass off, and he's more than proficient at managing an unruly team.

final decision??!

[shipwrecking]

Iiii don't wanna be presumptuous, but since the log's up! It looks like Murasa wins majority vote? If that's fine, I'll toss up a post-voting comment to get people organized. I don't wanna get ahead of myself wehhehh. I'm also fine with waiting for more players to show up and toss in their vote here.

Late...

[torininaru]

Anyway, Rolo doesn't care who becomes captain. He'll just watch from the sidelines mainly and might even obey the captain...
