Title: Something I think would help
Severian - July 9, 2007 03:20 AM (GMT)
I was reading one of ultima's posts in the "ere we go again" thread, and he said something about last reset.
It was then that I realized I wasn't completely sure which reset "last reset" was (I'm guessing it was the custom-world one, though). Nor am I sure what version of the RP I started playing in, except it was the last one set in FE7 land until this one.
I think it'd probably help me and other members, at least a little bit, to have a quick list of all the resets we've had in order. Maybe someone actually knows all of them?
UnrealBlight - July 9, 2007 03:33 AM (GMT)
I just name them in order of the ones I was in, which consequently means which group was the superpower every reset :P
First was the Ostia one, I joined towards the end at that one, but had another account I think, I did nothing, so had no clue what was going on :P
Then there was the West Lycia era, that's when WL toke over some country (Eh? <_<) and allied with EL and BTP, Etutria got high and mighty, and got every other country besides WL and BTP against us.
Then there was Grado, Grado was basically WL 2.0, almost all the same members, just we joined all at once, needless to say, no one tried :lol: Then me, Luis, and Loner left to take over Carcino
After that was I think the longest or shortest break between resets, not sure why I remember that, or can't remember which, but I know it's one of those damnit!
Then it was the Sayelm, basically it was our trio revived, with more help, I think we ended the reset with like 250k gold
Then it was the Bands era. The countries were as active as....well they are now, almost everyone was in a band. The main two were Glorious 8, and Band of Heros I believe.
And now we're here :)
EDIT: For the record, this is just in my perspective only :P

Not really. I don't see HER as the FEW history buff. <_<
1st: Elibe v.1
2nd: Elibe v.2
3rd: FE8 (I can't remember the continent. :()
4th: Custom countries. Onetia, Sayelm, etc.
5th: Bands and Elibe
6th: Elibe v.4
That sufficient?
UnrealBlight - July 9, 2007 03:17 PM (GMT)
It was Magvel as the 3rd one BTW.

ACTUALLY Strike, I remember alot more than you do, I think. :/
1) Elibe. Extremely simple, almost entirely derived from Dark Menace's original system. Included "special effects" with every character (made up by you), and a standard template for a character (only difference being growths). You could exchange two average growths for a good and bad. I believe the first growth thing was two goods, one bad (I think the second bad came into play later), and... the rest average. The first countries were Pharae, Tania, Ostia, and Sacae. Then, shortly after, Bern, Etruria, and Ilia were set up as Pharae collapsed from lack of members. Nabata was set up around the end of May (the exact date is somewhere in my inbox). 'Ivan was the original leader of Tania, and shortly let Durendal take leadership. Sacae had Firecross and Dark Menace as co-leaders. The rest weren't really important to me, although Dyne had Nabata. During this first era, the RPG was constantly changing, and the only war that really erupted was Tania x Nabata, which was played on a simple 8 x 8 grid or whatever the dimensions were, a pink box resembling a unit. That was a test battle. No more wars were ever waged. Oh, and Constitutions were determined by setting up a chart of all the FE7 constitutions and letting the users pick whatever one they thought suited their character.
2) Elibe. ... I've got to go to work, I'll finish this sometime this evening.
(Beat that, Strike. ;) )

You're just trying to show off :lol:
Just wondering, was West Lycia taking over Nabata in the second RPG the only time a country was actually taken over?
Esgalglinion - July 9, 2007 04:18 PM (GMT)
Nabata wasn't really taken over. We never really finished that whole incident, if I remember right.
And Sara is right, Strike. She will probably be able to remember everything correctly down to the smallest integer. >_>
UnrealBlight - July 9, 2007 04:24 PM (GMT)
Well, I remembered being banned for that whole Animegoddess situation, and then coming back, and WL basically owning Nabata (owning as in like, property, not OWN BIACH!)

If you own a country as property, you've probably owned them fo real to some extent.
Thanks everyone. I didn't even realize there was a "bands" reset. How did that go?

As usual, 2 superpowers, by the time they were getting somewhat close to each other, the RPG died.

2) Elibe. Tania and Ostia changed into just East and West Lycia. Bern, Sacae, Nabata, Ilia, and Etruria were also countries. The RPG changed so more customization was available (although this change had started occurring throughout the first RPG). Now, there were keywords, which somewhat limited stats (before, there were no caps). A few wars were declared, but most of them never got off the ground (I, personally, refused to send in my unit lists for the EL vs BTP war). Oh, right, and halfway through this RPG, the Blood Tsunami Pirates were formed, led by Karn. EL was led by me, WL by Grondy, Sacae by Dark Menace (then Fifth Fang), Etruria by Alex, Bern by various leaders, Ilia by... ... someone (Karn, then... Black Valor?). Wars were changed to actual FE maps, then to just words in a table. Judges could only judge their own battles if someone else suppiled their RNs (in the 1st RPG, you could judge your own battle, no problem). Collapsed from lack of judging.
3) Magvel. I didn't participate in this RPG, due to personal reasons, so my knowledge of it is limited. I did, however, create a unit. The stat system became increasingly complicated and... unoriginal, adding... was this when the custom weapons came out? Anyways, it just went berserk. This RPG died, too, because of the lack of activity in judges. I believe, now, you were unable to judge your own battles, period.
4) Custom world. I abstained from the RPG, again limited my knowledge on it. Infrastructure was added to the mix, complicating things way too much. Stat system stayed relatively the same. I believe this RPG collapsed from both being-too-complicated and lack of judging.
5) Elibe. I joined again, once again leading Eastern Lycia. WL was led by LoZfan, Ilia by Grondy, Etruria by Strike, Bern by Pondy. Sacae and Nabata were mercenary states. Bands were introduced, which could either allign to a country or just take over random territories by themselves. Countries were given two territories each, and then left to take over the remaining NPC territories on the map. The stat RPG again complicated itself, making stat growths numbers instead of words (if this was done prior, sorry, I didn't pay attention). Infrastructure is abolished. RPG collapsed from lack of war judging, which was caused by the main war judge (Grondy) leaving due to personal/educational reasons.
6) Elibe (current/most recent). EL and WL combined to form just Lycia. RPG uncomplicated itself, resembling the RPG of the 2nd era. Countries include: Lycia, Bern, Sacae, Ilia, Etruria, Nabata, and the Western Isles. Also Valor, I think (resembling the BTP of era 2).

I don't remember about judging your own battles or not, but I thought that judges were active. It's just that most of them were from Grado IIRC so that place made way more money XD Maybe I'm confused though.

Yes. I ended up getting assigned to do some or all (I don't remember -_- ) of the infrastructure, it gave a lot of headaches.

That's a schwee bit off, but I'd be the only one to ding you for that. Etruria moreso the problem, but I'll fill in the holes you left there. Personal knowledge and all. Etruria was led by Axem Titanium, then me for the longest time. Alex and Dur, unwilling to recognize my leadership, overthrew Axem. Before that however, I was leader of Bern. I left for personal reasons and placed Kipdog in my place. Towards the end of the reset, I was thrown out of Etruria and was welcomed back into Bern. I think they gave me my leadership back, but I don't quite remember. Oh well. I could go into more political details about some of the resets, but I may be the only person who cares about those things, k?
Oh, and Sara, you have no clue what I do and don't know. Thanks bunches. ^_^ Realize the user number is still wrong. *thumbs up*
sara13987 - July 10, 2007 03:19 AM (GMT)
Yes, sweetie, I'm well aware that your account was one of the ones wiped out by Dyne, am I right? ... I thought your's was, anyway.
Sorry about the Etruria bit. I mainly only focus on the history of my countries.

I remember when I was temp leader of WL while Grondy was away. That was fun. Fun times.

In what manner, Bucket?
Pondy - July 11, 2007 08:39 PM (GMT)
I don't know anything about Elibe I.
Elibe II was when I joined, so I don't know a whole hell of a lot about this one, either. Just that WL was a ridiculous superpower and that the entire RPG ended because of a world war where it was WL+BTP vs. Everybody Else, and nobody felt like judging it.
Magvel was when I led Grado. I basically took everybody by storm, completely owned NPC territories, and damn near took Jehanna. That was when Reyde and I were going through a bit of an interesting rivalry. :lol:
Eberron sucked ass.
Elibe III was alright, but bands SUCKED.
This is Elibe IV.
UnrealBlight - July 11, 2007 09:34 PM (GMT)
Interesting, you only like the resets that you were successful in, that would explain why I've loved every reset so far :lol:
Wasn't Trace leader of Grado? Or was that Sayelm.....
Pondy - July 11, 2007 10:57 PM (GMT)
Basically, I took out the NPCs and Jehanna, and then handed Trace the reins. What does he do? Nothing. :lol:
Reydemagival20635 - July 12, 2007 12:57 AM (GMT)
Yeah, me and Pondy were rivals back then. It was weird. I think he attacked me cause I was the only one who posed a threat... After that, it was all Grado. And then there was the fact that I refused to let Pondy join Jehanna prior to the reset... he was really being arrogant and demanding SiC when I'd already given Mega-dude(The Entertainer) the position...
Edit: Well, Elibe I was the one right as I joined, and that died right at the end. Then there was Elibe II, which was the first one I was really active in. I was in Nabata for a while, which was awesome because it was led by Esgal, and the original r00t admin, Shadow, was SiC.
Then there was this whole weird thing where everyone left and I had to revive Nabata, but somehow was able to, with Chaos_Blade/Chaos_Devil27, who left, and I haven't talked to him in a long time. That was all good until there was that whole judging scandal with Kio and DT, and Kio got mad cause I kicked them out; we had this whole feud that lasted like, a year. He's mad at me now for something else, don't remember what. After that, I left Nabata, and CB27 and I parted ways, CB became a Blood Tsunami Pirate, and I joined EL, where I became pretty good friends with Sara, leader at the time.
Then there was Magi-val(calling it Magvel would kill my name, ya know) and I was leader of Jehanna for a time... there was that whole Pondy fiasco. Then the Eberron RPG came... and I don't remember participating in that.
And then Elibe III, the one with the bands happened... I was pwnage in that one, leader of the Glorious 6(not the Glorious 8...), and had the highest level character for a while... then the RPG died. Finally, this one popped up, which I haven't had time to participate in because of personal issues, what with Summer School and Driver's Ed and all that.
