Not that I'm trying to avoid these questions, they're just not as clear. 'Sexual partners' is a vague term. There's always something else involved for me, maybe I can illustrate this for you:
  • a. 1-5 -- The number of women with whom I've shared emotional, intellectual, and physical attachment. With whom I've once made plans and with whom I've felt decently comfortable.
  • b. 6-10 -- This number includes women that I did honestly care for, and many, I still do.
  • c. 11-15 -- I have nothing for this range, skips to the next bracket.
  • d. 16-20 -- This includes the women whose names I will always remember.
  • e. 21+ -- This number includes the women for whom I will always be grateful, but whose names or faces I may not instantly recall.
So really, there isn't a direct answer to your question, and I don't think it would be realistic if I just picked a number.
I want to go back to this one, please clarify the exact number of women, instead of a range? And while you already explained to me from our off-site chats, explain a little how might someone have 21+ sexual partners? (You don't have to answer, btw, I'm always looking for things to ask in an AMA. lulz)

Now that we're on page 9 of this AMA... why the heck not?

1 -- The number of women (I guess it's woman now) with whom I've shared emotional, intellectual, and physical attachment. With whom I've once made plans and with whom I've felt decently comfortable.
5 -- (not including the above 1) The amount of women that I did honestly care for (whether or not our time together ended well.)
12 -- (not including the above 6) The number of women whose names I do remember, even if they were only in my life for one night.
5-8 -- (not including the above 18) Women whose names or faces I don't recall.

((So, honestly, from experience, this is average for a man Chase's age. When you're traveling alone for any amount of time, hookups happen easily and often. At least for me and those in my social circle. A friend (a female managing director in her 50s) tops us all with 78 sexual partners. You have a ready hotel room and plenty of time, really. It's how I learned the bulk of my foreign languages. I figured Chase would have had similar experiences.))

From what I've just gathered reading through all the AMAs here, you first met Carmen not as Carmen, but as Morgan Cedesina, right sir?

If that's true, then when did you know that Carmen Sandiego was Morgan Cedesina? Who found out first, how did it become common knowledge? Do you still call her Morgan?

I hesitate to ask this but... While 'Carmen Sandiego' has never been on Chase's list of *ahem* intimate partners (yet), has 'Morgan Cedesina' and Melana Lancaster?

This one's a little complicated, but not entirely. Yes, I knew her first as Morgan. I was also not part of the first teams to work on a Carmen case, because I was an instructor at the time. There were a lot of detectives in International Crimes that would jump at anything new, @Ivy Monaghan was among them. So this 'thief in a red trench coat' thing came to me via rumor.

There are, however, no official links to the two names -- Morgan Cedesina and Carmen Sandiego. Except that, for certain people, one was clearly an anagram of the other. I don't think she was trying to hide anything on that front.

I do not refer to her as Morgan. I also don't call her Carmen, really, unless it was an identifier for public notification (Blue Moon).

    ((OOC: So, I am still here (at least, while ACP is still a thing, then I have to tether my phone to my laptop, send it's internet to Ethernet to my router and setup my other laptop to access that... I managed it once totally by accident)... updating stuff I'm working on is not a fun process (if anyone checks my stories folder on my Google Drive) anymore... the laptop at my desk is old (Core 2 Duo, 2Ghz, 4 gigs RAM, Win7 Ultimate)... Chrome won't update, Drive won't work... I'm stuck using FreeFileSync to keep stuff up to datep things synced. I have plans of getting a job and having money to have something better (a doorstop is better)

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos). Posts like Hierarchy were started long ago, and meant as a guideline and not because I'm the voice of Sauron.

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
