At this rate I'll never be able to post in the "count to 10 before staff posts" because I'm too stubborn to post anything but the number "9".

Ahh well, maybe someday when all the staff are asleep...

Monster Hunter RP! Can be based on MonHun World. Would be cool to have a weapons system where characters are classed by their main weapon and a choice of a secondary weapon. ALSO I WANT TO GO HUNT WITH FRIENDS AND MY PALICO!

Story-wise, exploring and unlocking new regions, going on expeditions, etc would be so cool. Man I really want to RP as an endemic life research too...

If I find another M/F image that fits the criteria I'll whip one up of that as well!

This is beautiful! I really love how you designed it. Would it be too much trouble to ask for a different image, though? We don't have elves in KD (I don't usually mind if it's subtle, but her ears are very long and noticeable). We do have people with animal ears and tails, though, if that helps.

I can look for a different picture if you need, or if you have a different one that could work, could try that instead. :)

No problem!! I can look for a new image for sure. Or if you find one in the meanwhile that totally fits the bill, just post the link right here! :thumbsup:

I hope you don't mind me taking a stab at it!

Let me know if my image choice isn't dark enough, or if you've got some images at your disposal that would be cool too!

That sinking feeling of when you've overthought an idea and it's starting to worry you that it probably won't work out/people won't like it/it'll just fail...

Missions would be a good idea, although I don't want to pressure members into thinking that they need to join missions absolutely, but of course mini events like characters investigating rumors, doing research, etc. would definitely influence the fate of Itomori. If a certain number of rumors have been investigated before the Autumn Festival, then the timeloop will be altered. It may not guarantee Itomori being saved and allowed to exist past October 14th, but it will certainly change things in the next timeloop's iteration.

Characters in positions of power (part of the town council, an influential figure in the community, etc.) would certainly hold more sway on how the timeloop could be altered (or broken entirely) but I was thinking they would be considered more like canon positions due to that fact.

And of course, with each consecutive timeloop being completed, new/different rumours will be available. All timejumping characters will retain their memories from past timeloops so they won't lose anything they've learned from past investigations.

TL;DR: Yes the site will reset every month or so!
I like the idea of key canon roles holding more significance, as well as your plans for instigating ways to alter events :3 I think one month might be a little short given how fast threads normally go, as it won’t allow much to be done.

I'm not usually a slice of life fan, but I love Groundhog Day and LozMM so will be up for trying this out if you make it. Please could you tag me on any updates?:D

Of course! One month was just a basic timeframe I was thinking of. It certainly does seem a bit too short for any bulk of investigations to be done via RPing in our own Earth time, so if it feels a bit too short, then I think 2 months should be a good rule of thumb, too.

I'm always open to feedback on how to finesse this better to suit a flow that would be enjoyable for everyone, so this helps greatly thanks!

It wouldn't require any prior knowledge of the movie at all, thankfully! It's just a simple small town RP stuck in a one-month timeloop.

How the timeloop works, is that it starts on September 13th, and ends on October 13th when a fragment of the comet strikes the town (resulting in it being wiped out from existence). Then it resets again, indefinitely, until perhaps characters attempt to alter fate. Although it won't be easy!

Players will have the option of being aware of the timeloop or not. Those who are aware are effectively "time jumpers" so to speak!

Hope that clears up any confusion.

I’m intrigued. Will the site reset every x months to account for this? And how will you enable members to influence the time loop? Through missions?

君の名は。

Premise
You've lived in Itomori for most of your life. Or perhaps you have moved out here to the rural mountainside, desperate to escape your city life? Regardless, this small, charming town holds more than just a few secrets, but there's a certain force that compels you to stay here. On October 13th, during Itomori's annual Autumn Festival, the rumored Comet Tiamat was forecasted to pass the night sky directly above Itomori. Eager to enjoy the sights, you like many of the other townspeople congregate to enjoy the festivities... until a part of the comet breaks off and strikes the town.

What would have been the death of an entire town annihilated within seconds suddenly resets you one month back in September. You think it's all a bad dream, but soon you realize that you most definitely have been transported back in time... and it's not just you, but others too. Armed with your premonition, will you try to attempt to alter fate?

Setting
The small town of Itomori nestled in a valley of the Gifu Prefecture. Population: roughly around 1,250 people. Surrounded by idyllic, scenic nature, Itomori is steeped in a 1,000 year old tradition; however with recent political reforms they are looking to modernize and branch out. Divided into five main neighbourhood districts. Lake Itomori sits in the center of the valley, with Itomori's residents settled along its edge.

System
There won't be any sort of body-switching (yeah I know, it's the main aspect of KNNW) but I liked the idea of the plot being driven by the member's characters in their attempts to twist fate. Since the timeloop is one month, it would tick down to the Autumn Festival being held as a site event once a month (or perhaps an entirely different one depending on member interaction) where they try to save Itomori from Comet Tiamat. Players can choose to be Time Jumpers (the chosen ones who are aware that Itomori is stuck in a timeloop) or be ordinary citizens unwittingly having their lives being replayed over and over again.

That's all I got so far. I think it would be a nice twist on a slice-of-life town rp. Thoughts?

  • I'm not even sure what genre to call this ramble of wants, I thought to ask the community about something that may, or may not ever be made? So, here I go with a checklist of things, whee!


  • Set in Japan, where there are demons; there will be vampires too. Those are considered an offshoot. Not sure how that would be described in lore. No Angels; but humans could receive temporary powers from them, to use for certain callings at any time? Killing bad demons, vampires- or whatever purpose really. I don't want to restrict here?
  • Flukes; half breeds are playable of either demons and humans, or angels and humans. Either way...you're half and half, and powers are able to be used at will. Will leave it up to the player to decide if they're widely accepted by their kin or not.
  • The general public doesn't know about all this supernatural stuff, most debunk it as fake; or are glamored to forget it, or know about it and act according to how they want? You could still play as a normal human, doing your own thing?


Have you ever read the webtoon series Super Secret? It's like your idea except humans can enter contracts with supernatural beings. I like the idea of powers being transferred to humans tho (Super Secret doesn't quite have this aspect... yet) but definitely the whole contract idea coupled with some ghostbusting business sounds fun!

[attr="class","ninecodestopright"][HASH]jcink [HASH]skin [HASH]monochrome [HASH]dark [HASH]light[break]live preview




[attr="class","ninecodesbody"]

features



  • A left-aligned forum (sits on the left side of the screen)
  • Black & white aesthetic, compatible with any color accent you choose
  • Fits up to 1200px wide screens comfortably
  • Full custom HTML including mini profiles
  • 200x400 Mini Profile hovers
  • Custom header with option for banner image (autosized to fit)
  • Quick Edit is disabled; see installation guide for more details.



[attr="class","ninecodesbody"]

how to install



  1. Download the XML file attachment titled "Magnolia.xml"
  2. Log into your Jcink Admin Panel
  3. Navigate to Skins & Templates then select Manage Skin Sets
  4. Navigate to the section titled Create New Skin Set and find the option: Choose a skin XML file to one-click install a new skin. Upload the XML attachment you've downloaded. Hit "Create New Skin Set".
  5. Once you have uploaded the file, you will see a new skin installed in that section that operates as an overview of all the skins currently installed. You can use the links in that menu to quickly navigate to access the wrappers, style sheets, HTML templates, and macros.
  6. Lastly, please disable Quick Edit. In order to do so, simply navigate: Admin CP >> System Settings >> Topics Posts and Polls >> Enable QuickEdit? Set to "No."





[attr="class","ninecodesbody"]

customizing



  • Remember to set up your Custom Fields first before plugging them in/editing the HTML Templates. Be sure to write down the Custom Field #s down so you can plug them in accordingly where it corresponds in the skin.
  • The board images can be edited by adding new div classes called "#b1" with the number "1" corresponding to the forum id number. If you don't know what the forum id number is, simply click on a forum and look at the last digit in the url address. So this means you'll need a new div id class for each board image you want to customize. You can always change the default board image by finding ".boardimg" in the css.
  • The miniprofile hover utilizes this script for full customization for mini profiles you want to make for each member group. Please refer to this script if you wish to add more mini profiles for additional member groups.
  • Be sure to go in every HTML Template to see what needs to be customized/revised according to your needs!





[attr="class","ninecodesbody"]

terms of service



  • Due to this skin utilizing a lot of gradients, you'll need to be careful on how you change the colors, etc. if you want to keep the skin looking consistent. If you're having trouble editing the gradients, I would suggest ColorZilla as a quick and simple gradient css generator.
  • General coding troubleshooting should be done in the Coding Help board but any questions or feedback are welcome in this thread. I'll try my best to assist you should you run into problems.
  • As always, please leave my credit/copyright intact!



[attr="class","ninecodesbody"]

changelog



  • 10/07/2018 — Added dimensions for mini-profile hovers.
  • 10/25/2018 — Included some additional styling (such as the main profile, mini profile hover, etc.) to make it easier to customize.
