Title: Post Reset: What's New?
Pondy - June 10, 2007 08:15 AM (GMT)
If you're reading this, then you're alive. Congratulations.
In all reality, though, I've was up from 11:30 PM until 4 AM working on this freaking reset.
Knowing that, if I missed something, wasn't clear about something, or something just doesn't make sense having to do with this reset, please, tell me. Don't say something like "YO, YOU MISSED THIS SHIT, DUMB ASS!", because chances are, I'll warn you just for doing precisely what I specifically said not to do right here. Just tell me via PM or IM, and I'll do what I can to fix/clarify whatever the problem is.
On that note, let me tell you all what is different about this "generation" of Fire Emblem Wars.
-40 Exp base with 3 Exp variables
-No NPC Arena
-Introduction of Bonus Experience
-2 New Judging rules, one of which implements said BEXP
-Reintroduction of 3 Character Cap
-There is now a new method of getting your Promotion Item
-Judges/War Judges/Arbiters are back
-We now have 8 Member-Led Elibe Countries. They are:
[ Country | Leader ]
[ Nabata | Pondy ]
[ Lycia | sara13987 ]
[ Sacae | Evesgallion ]
[ Valor | Lades ]
[ Western Isles | ReydeMagival20635 ]
[ Ilia | KuraiKitsune ]
[ Etruria | Alex ]
[ Bern | strikeraider827 ]
Be sure to read all of the new rules word for word. A few minor details have been changed that could completely screw you up.

The system has changed quite a bit, but I expect that we can all adapt to these changes easily and overcome and any difficulty. The new style with judging and country strength is also a welcome addition for more equality. Let's hope that this is an optimum session, with no need to hear the word reset for at least a year.

Just to add on the work for everyone:
There's this thing that says "Thief Only" in the Thief keyword, but I can't by any means find any Thief only weapon in the Weapon Shop. Have I just missed them, or are there actually none?
Edit: How many characters are we actually allowed to use? 2 or 3?
Edit 2: Uh...wait, I forgot.
Edit 3: Seeing as we're not allowed to have Staff only characters, isn't the topic with the Staff-sparring things needed?
Edit 4: I love you UB. :wub:
Edit 5: Of course I mean unneeded! >.<

EDIT 5: There's no Dragon weapons; and not only are there no juggernaut only weapons, there's no "effective against juggernaut" weapons There's most likely other, but I'm too lazy to check anymore

Seems like there's alot of those, we're just reusing all the stuff from before, painted a "reset" banner over it, and saying it's new and re-vamped <_<

Yeah, about this, with the original RPG, you could move stats once you hit the cap IIRC.
As for the shops, I'm guessing they aren't done... and don't need to be done for a while since we will be low leveled for a while. I'll talk to Pondy about it, I guess.

Yeah, but you can't now.
Maybe y'all should've finished updating before you released it?
Alex - June 10, 2007 02:38 PM (GMT)
He never asked me for any help. >_>
UnrealBlight - June 10, 2007 02:39 PM (GMT)
Same, I offered to help, but then again, I'm only a member >_<
Esgalglinion - June 10, 2007 03:29 PM (GMT)
Which is kinda weird, since the member is the man's best friend. >_>
UnrealBlight - June 11, 2007 01:02 AM (GMT)
I see some of it has been cleared up, but most of my questions aren't answered :'(
Severian - June 11, 2007 01:31 AM (GMT)
You shouldn't do stuff like that in update topics UB :(
Still, nice job.
And Pondy, an' any/everyone else working on it, good luck and have fun.
Reydemagival20635 - June 11, 2007 02:16 AM (GMT)
See, UB, the whole point of this reset wasn't to make the system spiffy and new, that'll come later. We're just trying to get FEW back on its feet. Now if you would kindly move all complaints to the COMPLAINTS FORUM, we'd greatly appreciate it.
On Behalf of Me, Pondy, and Strikey(the guys who pretty much did the work, I got it started, blah, yadda)... - Reydemagival20635.
UnrealBlight - June 11, 2007 02:19 AM (GMT)
Meh, I was basically just doing all that with Pondy for like 2 hours after the board went offline, I thought he'd just PM me anything else, and delete my post.
I would've PMed him all of that, but I knew I'd end up going back and finding something else.
I still don't see the reason of making the RPG if we're not even going to bother cleaning the mistakes just for a boost in activity, that's basically saying you're more then fine short-changing us members as long as it means a little bit of activity.

I'm fine w/ that; if people are active outside of RP it makes the board as a whole better.
Making the RP better is worthwhile, but simply having some people back is a good thing.
UnrealBlight - June 11, 2007 02:50 PM (GMT)
Then do what we did earlier, start talking about the RPG, bring back the plans we had, and you're basically knocking out both birds with one stone. You're getting ideas for the RPG, and getting our input; while at the same time, getting a bit of activity.
Reydemagival20635 - June 12, 2007 02:36 AM (GMT)
However, UB, you don't have to be so cynical in going about this. We're trying to revive this board, and it takes a hell of a lot of work. We're doing YOU as a member a favor by bringing this RPG back, so it'd be nice if instead of accusing us of shortchanging you to just appreciate what we're trying to do here... Just a suggestion.

| Currently, the word 'cynicism' generally describes the opinions of those who maintain that self-interest is the primary motive of human behavior, |
Trying to point out flaws, and getting things clear for the better of the whole RPG is cynical?
| QUOTE (dictionary.com) |
| like or characteristic of a cynic; distrusting or disparaging the motives of others. |
Considering that I'm trying to help, and you're saying I'm doing wrong, I'd define you as cynical...
N-E-Waiz; I'm all for reviving the board, but we went like 6 months of inactiveness, I'm sure we could've delayed it another 2 weeks in order to get the RPG up and running.
I had no thought that you were shortchanging us at all, until you started turning this into an argument.
I asked a few questions and comments to Pondy, maybe you should try either help and answering them, or mind your own business... Just a suggestion.
