^-^ Oz got bored again and found an interesting template to follow so here's your new super advertising apparatus. (Fancy.) We need more people to play with us! So open up an guest ad section and start advertising!

<-< BTW, if something needs editing, let me know. See, no Gundam-smarts! I tried to follow the plot stuff from the story threads.

Actually, before we get to the advertising, we should consider a board make over. All new graphics and buttons (Oz can help!), new skin, and maybe some snazzy coding like a clean sidebar! :o Exciting~!

We might want to get closer to finishing Barker so people have a smooth transition.

Yup! That's something also, or at least reorganize the two side enough that they can continue the storyline independently of each other without having to hop from big event threads that require so much participation from both sides.

Tis generally the issue when you have factions, you can't normally swirl them around an easily made thing. That or they want some sort of conflict.

:T Hmm... The big event things are exciting, but they definitely don't have to be the only things going on. It's not like the entire Solarian Nation and EDU are converging on PA-N51 with Barker (maybe?).

So we can make sure there are other things happening too. Even if it's just the random "quest" thread built with NPC's. Gundam isn't all super robot fighting, right? (<<;; Seriously, Oz doesn't know.) What do pilots do when they're not fighting?

Historically when Gundam pilots aren't fighting they're ether building angst, getting a new robo or dying generally.

We'd have to think of something non robo for a thread to keep everyone amused.

xD Oz knows from high school rp's, there is very little required preparation when creating angsty plots. lol, so that shouldn't be too hard.

For non-combat activities (kind of), maybe we could create the military academy on either side. That could open up the possibility of students or soldiers in training. That could be used to expand on some of the neutral territories -- even if they aren't involved in the conflict directly, they probably aren't completely utopian either.

Other things for people to do would be more self-contained plots within the factions. I kind of picture Solaria as the bad guy, but OOC is there really a clear cut villain? Malum is probably evil... by there are others that don;t seem that bad. ^^;; This kind of thing probably leads to some power struggles within the ranks. Or have some of the military action on a smaller scale since not all of the conflicts have to be the big decisive fanfare. Run-ins with small NPC patrols, scouting outposts, even starting to make a move on some of the neutral territory.

Since we have the ranks and the battalion/team stuff being kept track of, if we make sure to fill them in rather than just spreading out randomly (we have things were it's one character and a whole bunch of NPC's forming a whole group) -- putting player characters on the same battalion/squad/team/together(?) would make it more reasonable for them to interact for development since they have to rely on each other and live together when they're deployed.

Introduce a little slice-of-life (Oz's favorite type of anime, lol).

Oh! And banner:

While it's not a bad thing to put everyone together, everyone was technically together in the same unit, however the leader isn't around currently and has the highest ranking spot.

Other things are doable however with just a bit of work.

Quite a few with a side bar, are we sure we want one of them? We should probably also try to decide whether or not to go for a dark color or a lighter color skin first to narrow things down.

Some of them come with the sidebar already set up, but I'm pretty sure they can be added/removed on all of them. I think most of the skins I found were lighter in color, not that dark isn't nice, lol, but a lot of them show up really horrible on screen.

Kyrite is really light, but I think it kind of fits with Gundam because it kind of has a metallic feel. Mindflay and Carousel are nice too because they seem really simple and neat. Finally, Pesanteur is just really pretty, lol.

I really like Kyrite, but I generally favor darker skins because they are easier on the eyes and use less energy to display (meaning a lower electric bill).

However, in choosing a skin, we have to pick something that will fit to the overall mood and theme - in our case it'd be war. In that instance we would want something darker. You wouldn't expect an action-filled RPG to be colored so lightly.

But going with the unexpected could be beneficial to us. After all, Torn Souls' original goal (or at least when I was helping work up the basics) was to welcome characters from pretty much any perspective.

I think we should go with something that's dark on the outside, but lighter on the inside.

(Wow, I completely over analyzed myself methinks.)

Hmm... Okay, here are some other dark ones I found:

Augeas
Japanese Moon
Recondyte
.Wiredvage
You're Never Coming Back

Out of those, I think I like the first two the best. ^-^
