This is goodbye

And with the endgame log up, the curtains officially close on Soul Campaign.

I'm not sure how many of you will see this, but I just wanted to take a moment as SC's last headmod to thank everyone who ever played in this game. Without you, this game would not have been here. So, on behalf of every mod who has ever modded in this game: thank you.

I also wanted to take a moment to thank all previous mods, however long or short their tenure was. Thank you for holding down the fort all that time.

And a big THANK YOU to my co-mods who are amazing people and whom I sometimes wonder wouldn't have done better with a more experienced head mod, haha. All the same: thank you for all your patience.

I wasn't here from the start, but I'm glad I could at least have been here for the end. There are a lot of things I felt I could have done better and I still wonder if a more experienced headmod couldn't have turned this game around. But you all put up with me so: thank you for that.

With that out of the way, if any current or former players have any memories of SC that really stand out, feel free to share them here! Let's end this on a happier note, guys. :3


Sincerely Yours,

Orange (the Supreme Demon Overlord)

SC was the first game where I played my precious perfect prosecutor here seriously. Sure, I did some casual meme-ing and a crack game, but SC was where I put down a reserve after seeing that the game still didn't have an Edgeworth in an era where you couldn't turn around without bumping into an Edgeworth player, where I crammed an app because I really wanted to play him out of sheer fangirl joy, where I stayed for more than 3 years - which is much of my entire RP life. This game stayed with me from my undergrad years all the way till now, my senior year in law school. It's such a huge part of my RP life, and where I learned the most about myself as an RPer, the RP world in general, and about Edgeworth as the character I've been able to hold the longest in any game.

I had so much fun here - I was warmly received by everyone, I had fun coming up with mission summaries and plotting what to do next for missions and invasions and silly things, I had fun just tl;dr-ing about character development and taking Edgeworth's development to so many different places. Not gonna lie, there's a reason why this is the CRAU I most want to work on further beyond SC. I hit some speed bumps along the way, but no one is perfect, and in the end, I'm so happy with how it ended, and how I managed to get as far as having a witch hunt log with Hibi and having Edgeworth forge Genesis into a Death Scythe.

Because I think I can qualify as one of the game's oldsters, I have a long list of fond memories that I'll simply bullet.

- Edgeworth's very first post, where the Hetalias thought he was one of Austria's, Monk side-eyed him for being a lawyer, and he side-eyed everything in general because of magic.
- Edgeworth and Phoenix getting washed out into the desert and learning to resonate - and overusing a Meister ability ends in Edgeworth not being able to talk for a few days.
- The one-sided crush Yoko had on Edgeworth, and Edgeworth missing all the signposts until she left him a confession and he had a major BSOD moment
- The Halloween when the hexed went berserk and hawk!Phoenix clawed the heck out of Edgeworth
- Edgeworth and Roy being chess buddies/men in authority buddies
- Edgeworth and Clovis being cravat buddies
- Edgeworth being referred to as Absolutely Fancy Cravat Guy by Kurt - OVER THE NETWORK
- All my castmate shenanigans - hanging out at the Agency with Franziska and Phoenix, confronting Manfred, crying in front of Gregory, Maya throwing his tea set at a kishin and going vroom-vroom on his motorbike, Mia NOT BEING DEAD and trolling Edgeworth, meeting all dem people from the ~future~, going on a mission with Trucy, giving lawyer!Phoenix a painful lesson in learning how to fight...EVERYTHING
- AGENCY PARTIES
- The Agency getting trashed
- Genesis making Edgeworth do pushups with law books on his back
- ALL THE AGENCY THINGS
- Edgeworth learning how to drive a motorcycle
- SHADOWS!!!
- Franziska and Ludwig visiting Edgeworth in the hospital after his first mission and grilling him about his relationship with Yoko
- POOL PARTY my gosh the pool party
- Edgeworth being a Meister Ability Helper before he retired
- EXCALIBUUUUUHHHH
- Writing out descriptions of resonance
- MAKING A RESONANCE ATTACK OMG
- Azusa training Edgeworth and totally kicking his butt (and I shipped them ahahaha)
- EVERY SINGLE BIT OF MY GORGEOUS CR. EVERYONE I'VE THREADED WITH IS AMAZING. Can I just say this. Actually I treasure each and every moment I've had in SC because it has been my home game for so long.

I played Michelle Cheung (R.O.D the TV) here for a short bit as well and had her on the Watch, and this was the game where I really tried playing her. It was fun, and I would later on take her to other games.

Thank you, everyone. Thank you, mods (past and present). Thank you, game. And SC was the reason why I even watched the Soul Eater anime.

Oh man, that pool party <3

Austeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. I am honestly so going to miss plotting with you and seeing what Genesis and Edgeworth would be up to next. ;; Playing with you regularly as partners here in SC have seriously been like, a really great turnabout for me. You were so fantastic.
prosecutory: (♖ but all your bullets ricochet)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2014-09-03 01:31 am (UTC)(link)

I'LL MISS PLOTTING WITH YOU AND TALKING ABOUT OUR BROS. It was so much fun aaaaaaaaaa <3

Yako and Edgeworth were the cutest. Also, I always loved stalking Keroro and Edgeworth's threads. (I feel like I didn't thread with you enough though...)
prosecutory: (♘ I ruled the world)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2014-09-03 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
It's okay, we have [community profile] hollyheights and Kaoru and Hisami.

ANYWAY yes wow Yako and Edgeworth were adorable and Keroro...alsdkjfsl I still remember when Edgeworth kind of threatened him with Stein.
blue_wayfinder: (Default)

[personal profile] blue_wayfinder 2014-09-07 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Yes~. And Hisami and Kaoru are pretty cute too.

...he did? Whoa. That's playing dirty, Edgeworth!
prosecutory: (♙ the smile that i've never shown before)

[personal profile] prosecutory 2014-09-07 06:35 am (UTC)(link)
Never let it be said that Edgeworth doesn't know how to play dirty.
