Arise!

Anyone have any crunchyroll passes?

@skew said in Recc/Squee/Kudos Code?:

Would you imagine storing all the historical kudos onto a single attrib on the player bit?

No. You'd end up with one giant attribute that's hard to deal with and read.

&cmd.+kudos_give ###=$+kudos =:@pemit %#=[set(pmatch(%0), _kudos.[time()]:%1)]You give %0 a +kudos!;@pemit [pmatch(%0)]=[name(%#)] gives you a kudos! Check +kudos.

&cmd.+kudos_view ###=$+kudos:@pemit %#=[iter(lattr(%#/_kudos.*), [inum()]: [get(%#/%i0)], , %r)]

(I have no idea how well this will work or if it even works, it's just a beginning sketch/idea. Take and edit as much as you want or as little.)

I chose Mystic because I had to pick one. Mystic was one.

I chose Valor because I had to pick on. Valor was fiery.

Is Pokemon Safe? 'The Christian perspective'.

Dude, I was once looked directly at during youth group as the youth pastor said, "And maybe some of you are watching things you shouldn't, like Pokemon." And then continued with his sermon.

He said MAYBE! What a nice guy, he gave you the benefit of a doubt. You may burn in the fires of hell, you may not... the jury is still out.

No. He wasn't. And it isn't really funny.

@skew @thenomain might have some thoughts.

@Misadventure said in Roleplay +Prefs:

How about a pref for how IC conflicts should be handled, and how willing to lose face, resources, limbs, lives, etc you are?

Game runners could chose to put that category in, sure.

@skew said in Pokemon Go:

@Cobaltasaurus Did you see the cheat for getting the evolution you want?

Nope

And it just locked up on another Eevee. Goddamnit. All I need is one more fucking Eevee and then I can evolve the one I have. Man, fuck this game.

@Marshmallow said in Pokemon Go:

@Cobaltasaurus I lost an Eevee because of that. Such sorrow.

I've lost one Eevee, two Nidorinas, Vemonat, and a couple of other that I don't remember now.

I really wish it would stop fucking locking up.

@skew said in Roleplay +Prefs:

@Cobaltasaurus Just for my own sanity, the data is stored on the player bit, as: _prefs.ratings.category with a rating of 0 to 5?

No, but if you wanted to change it to do that you could. It's stored as on the player as

_prefs.ratings: category:#.category:#.category:#.category:#

Mostly because I didn't want to have a bunch of attributes on players.

Updated with +prefs/find, and the function for - for things that aren't there.

+prefs/find will currently grab multiple logins of the same person. I've got no good way, right now, to cull them out.

@skew said in Roleplay +Prefs:

Hey @Cobaltasaurus, this looks cool! How comfortable are you with someone modifying it and using it for a slightly difference means?

My general idea is to change this from rp-prefs to actual character traits, such as, say, how confrontational your character is, how much your character cares about the suffering of others, etc. I think I would lock it down to use during cgen, and make it replace a background.

Thoughts?

Sure, go for it!

5 is what you absolutely love. Roughly.

What if I love it gently? Why are you boxing me in, Cobalt? GOD.

Don't be a creep.

He can't help it.

Also, I advise putting a "-" in place if there is no item, to be clear that the field is intentionally blank.

Smart.

facepalm

Are you going to open it to be more or stick to just her?

Just her. Made Angels are only possible when an Archangel finds his true love/soulmate that happens to a human and then he (or she) produces ambrosia. The only other possibility in known history in canon was with Lijuan, and she killed that person rather than turn them into an angel and become more human. This special person also weakens the archangel (this person can wound the angel in such a manner that they don't get all their super powers etc).

Being an angel made might be shiny, but it's tied directly to Archangels so its a nope.

@icanbeyourmuse said in GuildHunter game? (Angels, Vampires):

This might be a dumb question but.. can humans become Angels? There is show they can be vampires but no indication that they can be Angels.

facepalm

I can't believe I forgot that on that page. Derp. There is only one human-to-angel in known history. Elena the main character of the books.

I'm leaving it at there are no known angel/human children. i have a theory that the next book is going to address what happens when an angel and a human have a kid, but we'll have to wait until Archangel's Heart comes out. That being said, no player will be allowed to be an angel/human child. Isn't a matter of mary-sueism it's a matter of its not at all a model in the books.

And most angels will have one power that has multiple utilities. Stronger angels will have multiple powers. Jason can create black rain that hurts people, can blend into the shadows until he's basically invisible, and can hear information on the wind. On the other hand Mahiya can "see" through Jason's shadows (mostly but not always), and can create balls of light. And Andromeda seems to have no powers over her own, save an ability to go into a "battle trance". Aiodh also is not described as having powers. Where as Illium has the ability to make objects close to his body invisible.

Page has been updated with a bunch of stuff. Can folks let me know if they have any other questions?
