- [5/23/2013 10:23:15 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: So most of us are online now, are we going to do anything about the site or not?
- [5/23/2013 10:23:52 PM] hirodark1252: Note that Im tentatively online, sine y'know getting ready for the beach tomorrow
- [5/23/2013 10:23:53 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: The whole groups thing doesnt seem to work seeing as only half of us are ever on
- [5/23/2013 10:24:13 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Well
- [5/23/2013 10:24:18 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I said it before
- [5/23/2013 10:24:49 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: the most important thing is for us to first get the IC matters straight
- [5/23/2013 10:26:37 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: That said.
- [5/23/2013 10:27:16 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Seeing as how we have most of the backstory plotholes already worked out
- [5/23/2013 10:27:35 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: we should probably just ALL focus on the new member experience and the IC elements of the plot for when we relaunch
- [5/23/2013 10:27:47 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Kay
- [5/23/2013 10:28:34 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: As for the backstory itself.
- [5/23/2013 10:28:48 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It's not really important as far as the relaunch. It can't be.
- [5/23/2013 10:29:01 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: If we continue putting all this focus on the backstory we alienate new members.
- [5/23/2013 10:29:06 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I'm not saying forget the backstory.
- [5/23/2013 10:29:14 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I'm just saying it's not our #1 priority.
- [5/23/2013 10:29:30 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: LATER before we relaunch I would like for some of us to make some sort of timeline, maybe on the website.
- [5/23/2013 10:29:46 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Oh god. That thing would wallpaper a room
- [5/23/2013 10:29:50 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Divide it by seasons, they can click on links like "Season 0" which expand, maybe into episodes
- [5/23/2013 10:29:53 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: A brief timeline
- [5/23/2013 10:30:05 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: (though I'm actually making a comprehensive timeline in my room
- [5/23/2013 10:30:07 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: on my wall)
- [5/23/2013 11:22:32 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Okay
- [5/23/2013 11:23:19 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: What we need to decide is
- [5/23/2013 11:23:30 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: What is going to be the scene of the RP when we relaunch?
- [5/23/2013 11:23:35 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: that is to say
- [5/23/2013 11:23:37 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: what's happening
- [5/23/2013 11:23:38 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: what's our plot
- [5/23/2013 11:24:52 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Do we want to start small again? Focus on only a galaxy or two at first? Or do we want to focus on all the galaxies we have now?
- [5/23/2013 11:25:02 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Do we want some sort of common enemy or not?
- [5/23/2013 11:25:18 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Hmm
- [5/23/2013 11:26:17 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: It would be easier to come up with a plot if we know what were working with first. What will be open races available to members, and worlds, etc.
- [5/23/2013 11:26:37 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: True
- [5/23/2013 11:27:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Which brings us to the point of... should we make people re-request stuff?
- [5/23/2013 11:27:11 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: And do we delete planets which haven't been used in forever?
- [5/23/2013 11:27:20 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: ARCHIVE
- [5/23/2013 11:27:21 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: not delete
- [5/23/2013 11:27:22 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: sorry
- [5/23/2013 11:27:31 PM] Gaserlake: Re-requesting would probably cause plot holes, but meh.
- [5/23/2013 11:27:42 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: I don't think we should have to re-request
- [5/23/2013 11:28:04 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Unless it just doesn't make sense to the story
- [5/23/2013 11:28:20 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: For the record
- [5/23/2013 11:28:28 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: wait did I already say this
- [5/23/2013 11:28:33 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: about my alliance idea
- [5/23/2013 11:28:46 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I dont think I did
- [5/23/2013 11:28:58 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I kinda like my idea which I had for the original Season 5...
- [5/23/2013 11:29:16 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It was the idea that there's a new "alliance" (only cooler with a better name).
- [5/23/2013 11:29:43 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: We pretty much narrow focus to like, the Milky Way and Saeculum
- [5/23/2013 11:29:54 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and The Alliance is a corrupt power (like before)
- [5/23/2013 11:29:54 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: OR
- [5/23/2013 11:30:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: The Alliance is actually not dicks
- [5/23/2013 11:30:04 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and there's some common enemy
- [5/23/2013 11:30:11 PM] Gaserlake: There already was a common enemy.
- [5/23/2013 11:30:15 PM] Gaserlake: Nyx.
- [5/23/2013 11:30:19 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: What would the Alliance do/be?
- [5/23/2013 11:30:39 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Because no one likes self-proclaimed protectors
- [5/23/2013 11:30:58 PM] Gaserlake: >.>
- [5/23/2013 11:30:59 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: A loose confederation of factions who chose to join, mainly for military strength, a combined military, but also for alliance on some civilian matters.
- [5/23/2013 11:31:08 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Sort of like a UN + combined military
- [5/23/2013 11:31:09 PM] Gaserlake: Too bad, Hik. Aralangs are there, anyway.
- [5/23/2013 11:31:23 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: But are they going to make people just don't want anything to do with them, obey them?
- [5/23/2013 11:31:39 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: If we make them dicks and oppressive and the enemy yes
- [5/23/2013 11:31:56 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: If we don't and chose to center much of the story around them then no
- [5/23/2013 11:32:16 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: My original design for Season 5 had a lot of focus on a planet named The Hub (possibly an artificial planet). Like a new Boarder Line.
- [5/23/2013 11:32:42 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: And it would have began with whatever we named the alliance in some sort of brutal war with another enemy.
- [5/23/2013 11:32:44 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Maybe the Anrufe.
- [5/23/2013 11:32:49 PM] Gaserlake: How about the UD?
- [5/23/2013 11:32:51 PM] Gaserlake: The United Dimensions?
- [5/23/2013 11:32:56 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Lame
- [5/23/2013 11:33:03 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: XD
- [5/23/2013 11:33:16 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: United Federation?
- [5/23/2013 11:33:28 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Of course joining it would be entirely optional but the point is it would go back to what someone...
- [5/23/2013 11:33:31 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I believe Gaser...
- [5/23/2013 11:33:39 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: was saying about encouraging members to join other factions
- [5/23/2013 11:33:43 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: which is how the RP used to be
- [5/23/2013 11:33:46 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: before everyone had their own faction.
- [5/23/2013 11:34:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: We could put focus on a few base races like humans, maybe sages, etc... Starter races
- [5/23/2013 11:34:04 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: But even if they're not the enemy, they'd still be this authoritive self-proclaimed group. Not every planet is gonna agree and bend over to its will
- [5/23/2013 11:34:08 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: So it'd end up being an enemy anyways
- [5/23/2013 11:34:16 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It'd be optional membership as I said
- [5/23/2013 11:34:52 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: And K2, the starter races/factions is why I suggested member level system
- [5/23/2013 11:34:57 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: yes
- [5/23/2013 11:35:06 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: this plays in with the level system
- [5/23/2013 11:35:30 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Alliance factions would probably be good starter factions to join
- [5/23/2013 11:35:41 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: naturally.
- [5/23/2013 11:35:49 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: But we would want to give other options as well
- [5/23/2013 11:35:52 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Yes
- [5/23/2013 11:35:56 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: its optional
- [5/23/2013 11:36:31 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: If we were to do this then it could work where the alliance/confederation/whatever is fighting a crusade against the Anrufe.
- [5/23/2013 11:37:01 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: If you chose to join a Confederated faction you can chose to make a soldier and fight against the Anrufe if you'd like
- [5/23/2013 11:37:08 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: or whoever the enemy is
- [5/23/2013 11:37:11 PM] Gaserlake: Wouldn't the major contributor to the alliance/confederation/whatever to the Aralangs, seeing as they are ALREADY the self-proclaimed protectors?
- [5/23/2013 11:37:24 PM] Gaserlake: Or would they be seperate, or?
- [5/23/2013 11:37:35 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: if the Aralangs chose to join that'd of course be fine
- [5/23/2013 11:37:41 PM] Gaserlake: Kay.
- [5/23/2013 11:38:23 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: this is exactly the kind of "plot that new members can latch onto" that I meant though.
- [5/23/2013 11:38:46 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: The plot being a war between magical terrorists and a confederation.
- [5/23/2013 11:39:00 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: er, I kinda don't like where the Alliance thing is going. Seems like its starting to be a little too much like star wars in terms of factions
- [5/23/2013 11:39:06 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It is free of complication and completely optional for everyone.
- [5/23/2013 11:39:24 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: how is this like Star Wars?
- [5/23/2013 11:39:53 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: it's a confederation. Separate governments who unite for military strength
- [5/23/2013 11:40:17 PM] Gaserlake: It's like everyone going against the US.
- [5/23/2013 11:40:17 PM] Lyoko222: Quickly! Pho or Wings!
- [5/23/2013 11:40:22 PM] Gaserlake: Pho.
- [5/23/2013 11:40:25 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: regardless its just an idea
- [5/23/2013 11:41:33 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Alliance = Republic, other factions not of the alliance = Tha thing that was the other option I forgot the name of?
- [5/23/2013 11:41:52 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: O.o
- [5/23/2013 11:41:55 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Empire?
- [5/23/2013 11:42:00 PM] Lyoko222: Smh.
- [5/23/2013 11:42:14 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: I don't know, I only watched the 3 newer ones
- [5/23/2013 11:42:17 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: ...
- [5/23/2013 11:42:21 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It's not the Confederation waging a war against everyone else
- [5/23/2013 11:42:24 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Anakin <3
- [5/23/2013 11:42:31 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: It's the Confederation vs. one enemy
- [5/23/2013 11:42:40 PM] Lyoko222: Hikky has a movie crush?
- [5/23/2013 11:42:51 PM] Gaserlake: Smh? I forgot what that meant..
- [5/23/2013 11:42:55 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Shaking my head
- [5/23/2013 11:42:58 PM] Gaserlake: And yes. SHe fell in love with Anakin.
- [5/23/2013 11:43:00 PM] Gaserlake: And oh.
- [5/23/2013 11:43:14 PM] Gaserlake: Hence "<3"
- [5/23/2013 11:43:27 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Idk...
- [5/23/2013 11:43:40 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Hm
- [5/23/2013 11:44:12 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: at the very least
- [5/23/2013 11:44:18 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I think it'd work if we had some y'know
- [5/23/2013 11:44:22 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: antagonist
- [5/23/2013 11:44:39 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: That's what always made the original OK fun IMHO
- [5/23/2013 11:44:44 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: was the antagonists
- [5/23/2013 11:44:48 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: like Chaos, Assassin, etc
- [5/23/2013 11:44:58 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Everyone always ignores the antagonists
- [5/23/2013 11:45:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: that and the magic
- [5/23/2013 11:45:21 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: OH
- [5/23/2013 11:45:43 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: We could go with the idea I originally had for GOL
- [5/23/2013 11:45:55 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Where Galaxy and Galactic, Inc. are locking sages away
- [5/23/2013 11:45:56 PM] Gaserlake: I think I remember the Aralangs choosing NOT to be part of any organization, or allying with anyone... but... that has been broken, as I have been in alliances. >.>
- [5/23/2013 11:46:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: in prisons
- [5/23/2013 11:46:09 PM] Gaserlake: GOL?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:12 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Galactic Online
- [5/23/2013 11:46:16 PM] Gaserlake: Oh.
- [5/23/2013 11:46:22 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Isn't that falling back on the backstory?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:28 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: yfopk you're right
- [5/23/2013 11:46:38 PM] Gaserlake: yfopk?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:41 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: dhibsjja;la
- [5/23/2013 11:46:44 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: To start off.. what races of we have requested and around are going to be open, starter and advanced?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:48 PM] Gaserlake: dhibsjja;la?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:53 PM] Gaserlake: Wtf kind of acronyms are those?
- [5/23/2013 11:46:59 PM] Gaserlake: loljk
- [5/23/2013 11:47:00 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Human is def. a starter
- [5/23/2013 11:47:07 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Jut not Earth humans
- [5/23/2013 11:47:33 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Sages another.
- [5/23/2013 11:47:35 PM] Gaserlake: Human, cuz some people are more comfortable with being who they are right now..
- [5/23/2013 11:47:41 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Sages are a good starter.
- [5/23/2013 11:47:45 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: You guys are taking over Zarethwhatevers, are they going to be open?
- [5/23/2013 11:47:56 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Zarethians have always been open
- [5/23/2013 11:48:03 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Starter or advanced?
- [5/23/2013 11:48:06 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Starter
- [5/23/2013 11:48:15 PM] Gaserlake: Aralang? Eh... I dunno about Aralang... It's like being CONCORD on Eve Online, which is unplayable...
- [5/23/2013 11:48:22 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Okay
- [5/23/2013 11:48:25 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Lets see
- [5/23/2013 11:48:36 PM] Gaserlake: Aralang could be on the advanced side...
- [5/23/2013 11:48:55 PM] Gaserlake: IF I let that happen...
- [5/23/2013 11:49:30 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Humans: Believed to have originally evolved on planets in the Milky Way Galaxy such as Earth, they are a dying breed. Not naturally gifted in magic, and not always the brightest at science, but they are great warriors.
- [5/23/2013 11:49:56 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: That's like a jack of all trades race. Sages are good at magic.. so we need a technology efficient one?
- [5/23/2013 11:50:58 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Sages: Gifted in magic but have almost no scientific skill what-so-ever. Decent warriors when it comes to magic, they rely on strategy. Sages naturally take on the form of various mythological animals but chose to take on a humanoid appearence most of the time.
- [5/23/2013 11:53:17 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Zarethians: Zarethians, perhaps the genetic cousins of humanity (though nobody knows for sure), are a humanoid race. Incredibly gifted in science, they have adapted to using technology as weaponry after years of surviving in space. They are certainly not the MOST intelligent race out there, but they do utilize the technology they build well.
- [5/23/2013 11:53:41 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: I thought Zak said they have some magic too?
- [5/23/2013 11:53:46 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: They do
- [5/23/2013 11:54:21 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Humans have low magic, low technology, high fighting skill
- [5/23/2013 11:54:30 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Sages have high magic, low technology, mid fighting skill
- [5/23/2013 11:54:45 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Zarethians have low magic, mid technology, high fighting skill
- [5/23/2013 11:56:36 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: And then for the last open starter I'd say maybe Narrikians: Genetically altered humans, the Narrikians are magically efficient and are decent tech builders, but traditionally are not the best fighters.
- [5/23/2013 11:56:57 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Mid magic, high technology, low fighting.
- [5/23/2013 11:57:24 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: And if Gaser opens up Aralangs, Low/No Magic, Mid fighting, High technology?
- [5/23/2013 11:57:25 PM] Gaserlake: Bbl.
- [5/23/2013 11:57:55 PM] Gaserlake: Eh... I would say high on fighting and tech, but no magic.
- [5/23/2013 11:58:06 PM] lyoko222: I always saw the Aralangs to be just like the forerunners from halo.
- [5/23/2013 11:58:13 PM] Gaserlake: lol
- [5/23/2013 11:58:14 PM] lyoko222: Weird.
- [5/23/2013 11:58:21 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: those 4 alone would give us
- [5/23/2013 11:58:52 PM] Gaserlake: Bbl, now.
- [5/23/2013 11:58:54 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: A race of warriors with not much skill in magic or tech (humans)
- [5/23/2013 11:58:55 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Bye
- [5/23/2013 11:59:02 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: A race of tech warriors (Zarethians)
- [5/23/2013 11:59:09 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: A race of magic warriors (Sages)
- [5/23/2013 11:59:29 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and a race who is actually great at magic and science but can't fight worth a damn
- [5/23/2013 11:59:34 PM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: (Narrikians)
- [5/23/2013 11:59:36 PM] lyoko222: Lol.
- [5/23/2013 11:59:37 PM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: LOL
- [5/23/2013 11:59:49 PM] lyoko222: So much win.
- [5/24/2013 12:00:13 AM] lyoko222: Fucking grunder industries raped them every time.
- [5/24/2013 12:01:59 AM] lyoko222: I miss Tepper.
- [5/24/2013 12:02:04 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: me too
- [5/24/2013 12:02:22 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: alright time to start on this template
- [5/24/2013 12:02:24 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Those seem great for starters races
- [5/24/2013 12:02:48 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Honestly I wouldnt include the Aralangs as a suggested starter race
- [5/24/2013 12:03:01 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: They're a GREAT race but probably hard for new members to get into
- [5/24/2013 12:03:09 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: What about races that aren't open but can be asked of the owner? Do we limits them from asking until they're another level, or allow them to ask the person at any time?
- [5/24/2013 12:03:13 AM] lyoko222: Hikaru misses her bestest friend in the world too!
- [5/24/2013 12:03:24 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: What?
- [5/24/2013 12:03:34 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: theres a lot of them
- [5/24/2013 12:03:42 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: And seeing as the level system is optional
- [5/24/2013 12:03:53 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I'd say they can probably use any race at any time with permission
- [5/24/2013 12:04:00 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Kay
- [5/24/2013 12:04:12 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Full Name: Kaleb James "K2323" Tyris I
- [5/24/2013 12:04:13 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: easy
- [5/24/2013 12:04:22 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: what is Hikarus full name? O.o
- [5/24/2013 12:04:28 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: She has no middle
- [5/24/2013 12:04:32 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: oh
- [5/24/2013 12:05:52 AM] lyoko222: Hmmmm....
- [5/24/2013 12:06:16 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Okay... before asking about open/starter worlds http://opposingkingdoms.com/forum/index.php?topic=7137.0 Under Galaxies 1-7 which forum structure do we want?
- [5/24/2013 12:06:20 AM] lyoko222: Well, Ali has a pretty long name if you include titles and formal address.
- [5/24/2013 12:07:01 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: wait
- [5/24/2013 12:07:08 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: last I checked if you post more than 2 levels deep
- [5/24/2013 12:07:12 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: the notification doesnt show up on the index
- [5/24/2013 12:07:18 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: That's what I said
- [5/24/2013 12:07:30 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: UNLESS you're on the next level board, then you'll see the two after that one
- [5/24/2013 12:07:38 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: hm..
- [5/24/2013 12:07:47 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: I personally like the 2nd choice. Dimensions as categories, Galaxies as boards, Cities as child board.
- [5/24/2013 12:07:53 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: We're trying that out on ShEvo right now
- [5/24/2013 12:08:04 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and its sort of annoying but I like being able to map out entire cities
- [5/24/2013 12:08:05 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: *Planets as child boards
- [5/24/2013 12:08:21 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Are we using the Section code?
- [5/24/2013 12:08:36 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: About that, if we use sections we're not limited to using forum structure at all
- [5/24/2013 12:08:42 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: We can just call the category IDs to anywhere
- [5/24/2013 12:09:29 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Say you have a page dedicated to Saeculumn, its own graphical layout and everything. You could call the Saeculumn category ID to just that page, and show only everything in that category.
- [5/24/2013 12:10:39 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: hmm
- [5/24/2013 12:10:49 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I really like the second option as well
- [5/24/2013 12:11:04 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and we can possibly use the section code if we decide to use it to make this even easier
- [5/24/2013 12:11:42 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I also still really like the idea of some sort of graphical map as an index, but this is probably way too hard to code
- [5/24/2013 12:11:50 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: where you have a dimensional map first
- [5/24/2013 12:11:54 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: click on a dimension
- [5/24/2013 12:11:56 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: click on a galaxy
- [5/24/2013 12:11:58 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: etc
- [5/24/2013 12:12:04 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: ...Let's do SP/OK Revival Version 1, before getting too complicated
- [5/24/2013 12:12:11 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Other RP sites have several versions
- [5/24/2013 12:12:28 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: They update almost every year or when the coder gets bored and wants to add features
- [5/24/2013 12:12:36 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: for the record I stand by what I said about not needing so many planets
- [5/24/2013 12:13:02 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: If we do version 2, planets would be childboards and wouldn't stretch the index
- [5/24/2013 12:13:08 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Yes but
- [5/24/2013 12:13:19 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Also..
- [5/24/2013 12:13:33 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: that'd mean making cities, buildings, etc for ALL of them
- [5/24/2013 12:13:45 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: If we use images for board descriptions like proboards does, it'd make it neater.
- [5/24/2013 12:13:53 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I think the idea of having massive worlds to explore can really be a draw to the RP, don't get me wrong
- [5/24/2013 12:14:08 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: it'd be AWESOME to be a new member to an active RP where I can literally spend hours exploring new worlds
- [5/24/2013 12:14:11 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Not all of them. Some planets will and can be barren wastelands
- [5/24/2013 12:14:34 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I mean imagine
- [5/24/2013 12:14:41 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I could spend days exploring K City myself
- [5/24/2013 12:16:01 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: okay I'm gonna have to go to bed in a bit
- [5/24/2013 12:16:11 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: but we've made good progress
- [5/24/2013 12:16:38 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I'd say over the next few days we should expand the Level System and work on that
- [5/24/2013 12:16:43 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and then we should work on planet structure
- [5/24/2013 12:16:46 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: and then plot
- [5/24/2013 12:16:54 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: We only have 67 planets lol
- [5/24/2013 12:16:58 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: only
- [5/24/2013 12:17:00 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: oh God
- [5/24/2013 12:17:07 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: That's not counting Beyond
- [5/24/2013 12:17:08 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: imagine making 10+ subforums for each
- [5/24/2013 12:17:12 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: That's just the Galaxies
- [5/24/2013 12:17:22 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: that'd be 670 territories in our dimension alone
- [5/24/2013 12:17:23 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: lol
- [5/24/2013 12:17:58 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Ragnarok hasnt been posted in since October
- [5/24/2013 12:18:11 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: nor has Coldlands
- [5/24/2013 12:18:30 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: The problem is, if we archive these worlds.. or archive some of the posts of these worlds. What if it comes up IC?
- [5/24/2013 12:18:32 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: Aurum since November
- [5/24/2013 12:18:33 AM] Gaserlake: lol
- [5/24/2013 12:18:49 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: duh
- [5/24/2013 12:18:50 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: if it comes up IC we just re-add it
- [5/24/2013 12:19:02 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: or use the Other forum
- [5/24/2013 12:19:06 AM] Gaserlake: And about making a map on the dimensions... I did propose an idea of making a map of territories...
- [5/24/2013 12:19:10 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Fine. What if we archive posts of a world we're not archiving though?
- [5/24/2013 12:19:31 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: They'll get lost in the multitude of other posts, we need some way to keep them separated and better searchable
- [5/24/2013 12:20:32 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I like the idea of sorting the IC topics in the archive by chronological order personally BUT I see your point
- [5/24/2013 12:20:39 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: Oh and if you make Galaxies boards instead of categories, it lets you post insdie ships in that galaxy instead of Other.
- [5/24/2013 12:20:43 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: This isnt reason enough NOT to archive for me but does present a challenge
- [5/24/2013 12:21:05 AM] Gaserlake: And I've decided that for Aralangs... people would need my permission for them to join the Aralangs... Meh. I'm going off topic of what you two are discussing right now, but I just want to clear things up of what I missed.
- [5/24/2013 12:21:14 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: okay
- [5/24/2013 12:22:07 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: alright so
- [5/24/2013 12:22:11 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: we'll work more on Levels tomorrow?
- [5/24/2013 12:22:17 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: or rather today
- [5/24/2013 12:22:20 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: And what to do about archiving posts
- [5/24/2013 12:22:25 AM] Gaserlake: Today. lol
- [5/24/2013 12:22:42 AM] Hikaru/Ember Bright: At least we got starter races down so far
- [5/24/2013 12:22:56 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: I'd say first we focus on levels, then after that focus on planets and posts and stuff
- [5/24/2013 12:22:58 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: then focus on plot
- [5/24/2013 12:23:02 AM] Kaleb the Sexy Robot.: one thing at a time
