Three words: Image Links Page.

We could also link to posts with pictures on them.

Created the page, go forth and linkify!

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Yeah, we definetly have enough Tear Jerker moments already to deserve our own Tear Jerkers page. A quotes page might also be interesting since... well, we probably have a lot of interesting quotes.

...Mediafire? Weird, I'm getting eternally-refreshing pages in that service ever since Monday. I'm worrying it's something at the ISP level. Brb.

EDIT: yup, ISP issue. I can perfectly DL the file when proxying my way around. Nifty profile. I should definitively write mine too!

OK, going to try for doing the NFE thing tonight, completing tomorrow with time shenanigans if needed. Crewe, Slouch, and me are participating... any others? (And Silent has NPC plans)

Current plan is to give everyone a first round with an NPC, then skip to PC-PC battles.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

That sounds like fun! grin

I'll compete...do I have to be on a certain island, though?

It'll be at a plaza or some other municipal or open space at Kumquat, apparently. I'm gonna sign up an NPC for it (haven't decided which one of three options yet) because my character is busy elsewhere.

So, would that mean my character forcibly loses the first round though, or something?

News from Tangent

About the chatroom's current downtime, of course.

Trying to put it up in non-technical as I can, the current downtime was scheduled, was intended to be related to power maintenance, was intended to help some of the clients (Tangent among them) avoid some vulnerabilities, and was also intended to last for one hour or so.

That last part didn't go well though because some of the servers decided to go on a somewhat philosophical "who am I? am I I?" stage running diagnostics all thru itself. If I understood Tangent's report right, it's not that things are going wrong, rather they are simply undergoing taken-for-granted stages.

Tangent says he'll take the time to do some personal stuff.

Is that chat really back up? I've been trying to connect on both Pidgin and Speeqe, but I haven't had any luck.

Neither can I. I can't even get on the Wild.Tropi.us page.

Service Announcement: Battlesheets

Good evenings peoples and peoplemons, I'm here with an offer that you can't refuse. evil grin

Since I feel I haven't contributed something nifty to the RP (besides my charming presence, that is) and I definitively can't do art like Jane or Pikaninja (or, heck, like a random 10-year old), I've decided to offer another form of contribution: a battlesheet for our characters.

A battlesheet is a data table similar to what you can find in Bulbapedia for Trainer Battles. It indicates stuff like the Trainer Name and class, and of course its available team. I will be using the Pokéteca wiki engine to create battlesheets for our characters if you so desire. You can ask for one and later add it to the Character Page, for example.

This entire idea was born because of a chatroom discussion about what would a "Pokémon: Whatever Edition (WAAPT version)" romhack be like. From there I started playing with the Emerald datatables to put up the PEFE members as the E4. And it snowballed from there.

All you need to do is to sign by following the instructions below.

Battlesheet Signup

Just answer this questionnaire and send me the results via either PM or PEFE Pastebin (at pastebin.tropi.us) and I'll get back to you. Later modifications are allowed, don't worry.

  • Name: In case you want to have it under a different name than your name in-RP.
  • Trainer Class: what you want to be called like. Bug Catcher? Tuber? Or something new like, say, Night Guard or Ace Ranger?
  • Sprite: I will most likely not need this because the character page has them, but some of us like, say, Luke, don't have sprites so I'll need to know what to use.
  • Battle Location: Where does your battle take place. Must be a named location though (eg.: "Dewford Town" or "Route 31").
  • One or two Identifying Types, like, say, if you feel identified with the Steel and Ice types, or something.
  • [Optional] A Pre-Asskicking One-Liner (line of dialogue right before the battle) and/or a "Facing the Bullets" One-Liner (l.o.d. when only one Pokémon remaining. I'm trying to incorporate those features in the template so I'll let you know if I can use them.
  • [Optional] Amount of Prize Money.

And now, for your team:

  • Team Size: how many Pokemon do you have, from 1 to 6.
  • Team Sprites: which generation to use. It is limited to all sprites of the same generation ATM.
  • For each Pokemon (species name), the following information:
    • Species.
    • Gender.
    • Ability — this can be any Ability the species can naturally have. So no Truant Arceus, Anom!
    • Movelist — 4 moves as available in the games, legal and proper.
    • Held object, if any.
    • Nicknames, if any.

Features not available ATM but that I plan to add: Nicknames, pick the sprite you want per mon (and perhaps use our custom sprites for eg.: Nadia), prize money (which is supposed to work but doesn't...), Trainer Items.

Partial Demo

Updates

(as of 2011-09-28)

Added nicknames for mons, prize money. In the workings: special quotes (pre-battle, in-battle) and trainer item.

Already done: Anom (guinea Tepig).

Working on it: Tangent.

Sent: Mezzo.

Should I make a battle sheet like from a few posts ago, or should I just say what I've got?
