So the thread is more about covering Oni's plot in much detail (dialogues and text consoles for the most part) with little or no speculation, and then attempt to resolve the inconsistencies and weak spots with a focus on overall consistence. That secondary phase is when it's very easy to be carried away with speculations.

The problems are : my on-the-spot developments on the tricky issues are so "inspired" that they result in posts with record-breaking length. I wrote ''nothing'' before that thread, and I keep little for myself : whatever I thought about Oni's (or Oni 2's) plot at any moment, it's all on that thread, basically. Written there and then, during the brainstorming process, and without any summing up (raw brainstorming, no postprocessing). That, I recognize, can be dissuasive even to fluent English speakers. I can see no solution to that : "raw brainstorming" with no editing is my way to be honest. The index being compiled [[Oni2:Storyline|here]] is supposed to make that monster thread human-readable and at least roughly organized. | The problems are : my on-the-spot developments on the tricky issues are so "inspired" that they result in posts with record-breaking length.
