-Wants to burn the profile photo for Richard, as it's one of his more crappier..works.-

-_-*

Either way, that image is going to be out of date, as that helmet was wrecked in his little crash-ola. IC wise he's going back to a standard helmet and suit. Fritz, you can whip up a photo of that if you want, or use the new picture I have of him post recovery.

Yes, it's a V8.
Yes, it was a Trans Am before there was "TRANS AM."

Hey, you gotta mention dead charecters. Even people like Max Baxter. ^^

... Fritz, I mentioned in my sigup that his hair was white.... -_-

So, can we edit the profiles further after the Trinary is done? There's a lot of backstory for Jack which I worked out but skipped over due to a number of reasons, chief among them being relevance to the plot. <.<

I've been waiting forever for you guys to unveil the wiki so I could change the lil mistakes in Panny's profile!

Is this Wiki going to be used from now on, as in after we move onto other RPGs, or is this merely for the TotF?



If Love is the answer, could you please rephrase the question?

edit: :lol: I see Max Baxter was included. I would like to see the demise of the dead characters.
Of course it'll be updated, silly ;) The idea was for an RPG Community database that stays up-to-date as the RPG goes along, so we don't have to comb through thick sign-up threads and discussions and RP threads to get information on a character, custom machine, ship, battle, etc.

Yep, because this was meant to be very wiki-like in its absolute completeness, we don't go around pretending a character didn't exist; not even Max Baxter.

I think I brought that up back when he was making all the character art (and the other Trinary members had the luxury of seeing them well in advance ;)) I don't remember his reply.

Of interest, though, is that that portrait of Jack kinda matches your original Propaganda of Warlords signup.

Extra help in the form of members doing some help on his/her character's (or characters') individual page(s) is appreciated, so long as you're not conveniently altering something that happened in-RP, or making anything up. I don't want someone to suddenly claim they scored a dozen kills in Apollo.

Aw, you could've gone and done it anytime you'd've liked, dear test driver.

My original idea was for the wiki to encompass all New Board RPGs: that we'd even go back and include the information - however scant - for the SEED, SRW, X, Wing, and G RPGs as well. Getting up-to-date with TftF will alone be a daunting task, though; that's a crapload of information to put together, and a lot of it will have to wait on Dale (hopefully) restoring all the threads that were lost.

If/When the wiki's up-to-date with the RPG, and information need only be addedin little bits at a time as we move forward, then maybe (no promises) we'll bother adding info for the other RPGs. Any future entries for TftF series go in by default, though.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the details, Cardi. I shall now go forth to conduct enhancements to the backstory of Jack!

Also, the 2nd image that Fritz drew is closer to my interpretation of Jack at the start of Propoganda of Warlords... his hair went white after Loum or Perth, can't remember which. I suppose I can retcon by claiming that since being assigned to the Dervish, he decided to dye his hair so as to try and indicate a new start.

If you'd like, I can help with the ship profiles of the AEUG's Sally Ks...

it's actually quite simple...just sign up to wikispaces and click edit. blah blah blah go to the page you want...click the 'no picture avaliable' place holder then click the picture icon on the top and upload the new picture and replace the placeholder!!

The site is really easy to use...

I'll probably put some work into it...data management is one of my many super sexy skills...so expect to compile a bunch of data and create some streamlined lists and stuff to make things easier.

I'm almost tempted to convert the whole wiki to metric. :twisted:

UNTIL THE POSSIBILITY OF A SECTION ROLLBACK IS LOOKED INTO, PLEASE STOP ALL POSTING IN THE RPG. THERE IS A CHANCE ALL POSTS SINCE LAST SATURDAY WILL BE DELETED IF THE ROLLBACK IS POSSIBLE. CARDI AND I HAVE SAVED THE CONTENT OF BOTH THEADS SO THEY CAN EASILY BE REPOSTED IF AND WHEN THAT OCCURS.

I think Fritz's reply to that on the Sign-ups thread was summarized in two words: "Too bad". :P

NEW PLAN

Everyone can continue posting! Cardi and I will continue saving the content of both threads as we go. The new idea from upstairs is sort of circumventing the rollback possibility, so please continue posting normally.

I've got a question!

I'm new here and I'm writing up a character bio to sign up for TFtF. I have been writing my character for the AEUG, but just out of curiosity, what mobile-suits are available to new characters in the Titans?

New AEUG pilots get the MSA-003 Nemo.

New Titan pilots get the RMS-106 Hizack.



If Love is the answer, could you please rephrase the question?

Only HiZacks are available to new characters for the Titans I believe. Anyways, welcome to Mechatalk!

I like the profile, there, Saosin. My only problem is how radiation comes into play with Stardust, since they dropped a colony, not a nuke.
