Finalizing annual events and revising the rank system
« on: July 06, 2008, 01:22:26 am »
The current ranking is...



If I were to restructure these...

General ones

CC Reserve Corps (0)
Iokan (+1)
Earthbound (+15)
Porrean (+50)
Level ** (100)
Guardian (+100)
Enlightened One (+200)
Chronopolitan (+300)
Squaretable Knight (+400)
Acacia Deva (+500)
Black Wind Agent (+600)
The Great Magus (666)
Mystical Knight (+700)
Sun Stoner (777)
Time Traveler (+800)
Temporal Warrior (+900)
Dimension Crosser (+1000)
Magical Dreamer (+1250)
Errare Explorer (+1500)
Day of Lavos (1999)
Radical Dreamer (+2000)
Zurvan Surfer (+2500)
God of War (+3000)
Lavos (+4000)
Hero of Time (+5000)
Time Devourer (+6000)
Arbiter (+8000)
Ayla's BronzeFist (9999)

Nu didn't quite fit in, since these are really titles, not special characters or creatures.

You know, I'm posting what I have. I'll pick this back up tomorrow.

How about changing it to God of War...? Can't get rid of the Nu sprite, right? I still think there should be a "Level **" specifically for when you hit 99 posts...or 100? Whatever...Either with a pic of the double stars from in-game or maybe the Pink Nu Spekkio.

I was a Magical Dreamer at one time...?  Gosh, I don't even remember...

Anywho, the new list looks good.

I also still don't know how I feel about the term "Lavoid"...I still prefer just "Lavos". I mean it loses Ayla's translation when it's "Lavoid".

Love the "End of Timer." Does a person who's been here that long get a Gaspar/bowler hat sprite?

Yes, I LOVE the one-shot ranks! Maybe just cut it down to BronzeFist, though? I think we all know where the reference comes from w/o Ayla's name, right? :P

Kind of weird that it just skips +7000 (especially since that's where you're at ZeaLitY) & +9000...

After 1999 posts I will never post again.  NEVER.

Now we need to fix the site contests. Here is the current setup:

o Dream Splash! -- Semi-annual event from June to November covering an expansive topic in the series and inviting an entire range of contributions

o Spring's Gift -- March, April, and May witness a fan art contest. The winner gets the title Artist of Termina.

o Winter's Fragments -- December, January, and February see a simple fanfiction short story contest. Entries are judged on quality, theme, and closeness to recreating the Chrono feel (which...sounds a bit stupid and subjective, but you can guess what is meant). We take full advantage of the holiday season to compose works here. Winner will be the Poet of El Nido.

~

We axed the ROM hacking and remix contests since there's no way in hell we could find enough participants. Here are the existing groups we have for people:

  • Architect of Kajar - DEFUNCT ROM hacking contest winner.
  • Artist of Termina - Fan art contest winner, currently held by NeoXeno, since I have no idea if Andrew Judson has a forum account.
  • Bard of Regiorra - DEFUNCT fan remix contest winner.
  • Creative Emerita - For former winners not currently occupying the winner titles.
  • Poet of El Nido - Fanfiction contest winner; there was no fanfiction contest this year.

There is no Dream Splash "Winner". So, does the current setup sound good? Any ideas? sffh03Brak

For "most contributing programmer to the advancement of making CT/CC/RD hacks", how about a "Mad Scientist" position complete with a picture of Luccia - maybe one each for CT, CC, and RD?  (For CC: either Ramsus or yaz0r.  For CT: whichever one of you monkeys made Temporal Flux. :D)

Hey, how about for the awarded ranks we use Kato for fanfic award, Toriyama (or Yuuki I guess if they wanted...?) for fanart, and wait...why don't we have a music award...? We should totally have a ReMixing contest...! Well, anyways, Mitsuda would be the rank award...I'm just picturing a lil pic of their faces like the old Radical Dreamer, Zurvan Surfer, & Arbiter rank pics.
