This is just a thought of mine but I think that of someone could give a list of the Civilizations of the forum and like give them a number from 1 to 10 depending on powerful they are. I think it give newbies(including me) a sense of how powerful the different Races are and the standing in the Universe. Although its probably a really stupid idea but whatever I thought it could be interesting. :P
-
I know its been a long time...One should go through the creature list and then # if they wish to continue this thread, or pick the top creatures and # them... Just a thought.
-
I suggested doing this a while back, but it wqould take ages
Superpowers:
Torpals, Nauceans, ViS
Major Powers:
Auyuelcliads, Urshan, Icthians, Wexxians, Rinthuu, Oifan-Umtag, Sombrerons, Caarnth, Ghulos, Squillisks, Quillaran, Serlan
Lesser Powers:
Kangor, Omic, Syrbor, Snepres, Forthi, Yunimuis
Alot have bene omitted, its just a quick list.

Put the Necromonicon as superpower with a dash through them like caarth cause they're gone now, and you need a section like "civilians" where the Gryfon, Sombreron, Fungoidians etc. can be placed.
-
You do it Necro:p
-
Booyah, I'm a major power. TWICE OVER :D.
-
Lesser Powers:
Snepres
i didnt know that the snepres are even any power LOL
(at the moment ^^)
-
The Turnaqs might be a lesser power...I'm not sure.
-
If there was a "middle-power", between major and lesser, than the Matarissans would be there, in relation to the time and effort put into them...thoughts?
-
Sweet,the Oifan-Umtag are a Major power. I do agree, even though I am not big on RPing.
-

I agree, also twould be nice if the Omic were on that part too. :p
-
Yeah, this is why it should be done with numbers, so you don't have to make up names for it all. Also, Necromincon a superpower? Phah! You made a description of some of there evolution and belief then strapped them to a rocket.
-
i thought this is an overview how much power the different races do have in the imaginative universe and not how popular they are ???
-
It is I think
-
My creatures are gods, that's why they aren't even on the list 8)
-
It is based off a lot of factors.
-
It is based off a lot of factors.
which are?
-
Mainly its a big popularity contest and us cliquey regular posetrs pat each other on the back and throw praise around at the expense of you underdogs. Its all a big conspiracy. No seriously, factors are things like: How good your creature is (this is based on the opinions of others, not your own opinion), how hard youve worked on your creature, Pictures (yes, i'm afraid they are pretty necessary) and some other stuff.
-
I've done a lot of work, I just can't put most of it up for mutiple reasons. :'(
To get it started, I think that Naucean = 10 according to everyone else. Objections?
-
If anything, it should be judged by who was here the longest (the first to reach the space stage, and thus move forward in technology more than the other races) and by who put in the most effort, including creativity (although i don't know how this would be judged. Everyone is going to say that their creature is the most creative while dissing everybody else's). Overall this thread will probably lead to a huge argument.
-
The Kazea are somwhere up there.
-
Yeah I really didnt want to start an arguement or anything, so maybe this thread was kinda a bad idea, but no ones started an arguement yet so maybe this will work out.

You might also want to put extinct creatures in a different level. Im glad im not just obscure. Also, though I might just be a bit jealous ::) I dont think the Necromonicon should be a major since they never actually invented any of there own technology till the Sirron ships.
-
Nice list ,Opera! That can be the basic guideline for now. Maybe someone should post a "Creature Guidelines" Or "Why we can defeat a turtle with an extra arm" Thread?
-
So operaghost21 where is the Kazea on the list? They made it ti the spce age, but have not contacted any other races other than the Naucean observing them and way wya later they are in the Prison Escape game.
Or what about the Boabas, Lermiun, Borark or Teshlin? Those are some of my favorites.
-

i'm not sure...i would say they'd be a super power or major power, but the only reason i didn't was because they hadn't contacted other races...i'll put them up there, if you want
and i'll add the other guys too
-
Now I like that list! The position of the Omic is soemthing I can live with. *Turns on ms paint and attempts to draw a million pictures, also thinks up every second of Omic history* must h=get higher, must get higher...

The Kazea are probbly major power for the fact of all the effort put into them, but not a super power becuase the lack of participation on the fanfic RP threads.
-
I would say that the Ryndalians WOULD be a superpower, but that would be if the entire race actually banded together. They are subdivided so many times over that each individual group is not very infulentual at all so Minor power fits pretty well. though I intend to put some more into them, as soon as I know what people want next.

I still say we put an area for extinct or uncontinued creatures.
-
We'll put a star next to them, which ones are extinct or uncontinued?
-
I still say we put an area for extinct or uncontinued creatures.
How do you determine uncontinued?
-
When the last post about them was over a month or two? Ofcourse, if there was an exuse that wouldint count.
Theres also ofcourse when they declare the race dead.
-
I agree with Kratok. Guys like the Fungoidian are never updated. They should have a star. Assuming this chart take places after the Prison Escape, Extinct species should get a dash through them (thats the Necromonicon, Kril'Pok"Kans, Caarth... possibly more). Also I need my Tortullakeet added in there under Obscure.
-
Ok, because soem have disapeared for months like the Quillaran but have recently coem back from the dead. While ones like the Boabas have disapeared off into oblivion.
-
I dont think the Necromonicon should be a major since they never actually invented any of there own technology till the Sirron ships.
Thats irrelevant. if we judged it on what people say their creatures have then everyone would say they have ultimate technology just so they can be superpowers. Really the technology comes with the rank, not the other way round. Thats why only Nauceans get to have time travel.
-
I'm sorry but doesint it still seem they have just some small info, popular or not?

My 14 paged home thread beats your 7 pages :P
Plus the ND threads have oodles of other info on the Necromonicon.
I just think you're jealous.
Anyway, to stay on topic, I say once again we need stars and dashes to count in/out certain species.

I really don't know what I'm doing here so I need someone to give me a list of extinct and uncontinued. :-\
I think the Kawona/Kawenu are extinct, aren't they?
-
The Kawona are 'discontinued' (they went to build a new galaxy) the Kawenu are extinct.
-
about making updates, nope I would rather make a lot of different creatures, like in my creature topic
http://www.gamingsteve.com/blab/index.php?topic=3198.0
so dont expect to see more baobasses.
So i guess they are discontinued
-
Hmm. I'm on the obscure powers list. What is the definition of obscure? When googled I got the result "unclear".
-
Yaay im a minor power! Just have to do alot more wars or something and I can move up to major someday. (looks out window longingly)
-
Woot woot! does this mean the Syrbor are a major power??
EDIT: ok nevermind, they're a minor
-
Nice list ,Opera! That can be the basic guideline for now. Maybe someone should post a "Creature Guidelines" Or "Why we can defeat a turtle with an extra arm" Thread?
I might add that to my RP guidelines thread somewhere. I have a request for a GM guide already, I can expand it a little.

:( You didn't even INCLUDE Talcea.
-
I think we can safely say that any omissions go in the Obscure Powers bracket.
Yay! I'm like China! :P
-
I agree with Turnaqs being obscure. They are just beggining with intersolar relations. Soon they will be minor or even major, I hope.
-
I'm sorry but doesint it still seem they have just some small info, popular or not?
Many races (the Icthians, for example) have most of their info in other threads than their own. In fact, it would take me ages to put everything I've written in my own thread. It's not about thread size, but about participation.
Also, I have added a note to my RP guide. I will elaborate this when I have time.
-
Like it's commonly said, dedication/originality/amount of info/pictures/longevity = respect and critique from other readers = race power. This keeps things at a healthy level of competition I would say, so rather than ten zillion poorly-defined bit races running around, you get a quality over quantity effect whereby the more effort and dedication you pour into your creation, the more powerful they become in RP as a result. Longevity also helps (just look at Hydromancer), but I would say effort comes first, and that if you put in the effort, you get respect, which will allow you to do more things, which will result in your creature staying around longer. Here's my interpretation of the powers:
Super Powers
IRL, you would analogue these to large, powerful and resourceful countries like America or China. Everyone knows of them and knows their power. They might not neccecarily respect or like them, but the fact remains that they are by far a major player in intergalactic affairs. These are creatures which have a vast wealth of info, are well-known on the RP to a sort of iconic extent, or have been around a looooong time.
Major Powers
In my mind, these analogue to countries like England, Japan or Germany. They're well known and contribute to the galactic affairs in their own way. Not overwhelmingly powerful like the Nauceans or ViS, but still playing a significant enough role in the scheme of things. These creatures are pretty much just a step down from superpowers. They're not iconic, but they are fairly well known, and fleshed out to a decent degree. Even recent joiners can ascend to this level if enough effort is put in.
Minor Powers
These would analogue to places like... I dunno, Iraq or Iceland. People know about em, they have an established identity, but they don't contribute as much to the grand scheme of things as the major powers. Again, it's just a step down. Creatures in this category have established a paticular identity, but havent been fleshed out enough to put much of a dent in history. However, a completley new creature with enough information right off the bat would land in this category, IMO.
Obscure Powers
These would analogue to those countries off in the corner that some people dont even know about. The majority have yet to acknowledge them, but when they do they will be elevated to Minor Power pretty quickly. I think this category is more for total newcomer creatures than anything else, because i've yet to see anyone make a creature with next to no info..
I would vote my creature (The Esrever) to be placed in the "Minor Powers" section. My creature isn't totally obscure I think.

I agree.
-
I think my guys should be put into the Obscure Powers section. It's not that they aren't powerful, it's just that they don't contribute much. The Squillisk are too introverted and the Ghulos don't really care that much about other species.

oh man i sent my squad to check these guys out and they don't even care,i gotta take them out since they gonna be the main characters in my fan fic.

I think the Forthi should at least be in the minor power section. they did start up the Delegation of Unifed Powers alliance, a new up and coming power...

Well, you might have some trouble with that if your Kangorian friends are running around killing their brethren just for being living creatures.

perhaps "Lesser powers" could be in-between Major and Minor?

I'm going on the assuption they are an alliance of blind species. No sight = no pictures

I'm not agreeing with my creature being obscure. By now a good amount of people know of them and the Ulinium War was experienced by quite a few races. Also, my creature isn't infoless like the tutle-with-an-extra-arm!</rant>

Check time:
1. How long have you been here?
2. How many posts have you made in character?
3. How much detail is there?
Now compare the answers you get to those of other races.
I didn't even hear about the Ulinium war. Who was involved?

Daxx, it was a rant

Rants are forbidden by the forum rules, so I thought I'd take it as a serious question. Seriously though, you understand why, don't you?

I remeber hearing that kind of thing about O.T.H.E.R. a while back.... ;)
As for the rant, I've seen a lot of those and this is the first time it has even been mentioned that it is against the rules.
-
Rule 5. You need to read them, Genesis. Didn't I tell you that before?
-
Rants, sarcasm. I know the difference, but the terms are used for the same thing sometimes.
-
Yeah i realize the Kangorians are running rampant, but we are trying to settle them down. But Krakow Sam, what are you talking about no pictures?
-
There's few pictures in the DUP thread or about anything DUP related. IMO it's not a critical blow to integrity, but it does perhaps display that the dedication to the whole shebang isn't what it could be.
What do you want pictures of? All the creatures getting together and holding hands/tentacles/other strange appendages and singing Kumba Ya (or the alien equivalent)?
lol
(what did i say... this thread is becoming a huge argument!)
-
tutle-with-an-extra-arm!</rant>
What is this creature you speak of? ???
-
The Klickan.
-
What about some sorrta of calucation like ...
M = Number of Months sicne started creature.
P = Number of Pages in Creature thread.
R = Number of Role Playing threads you have particapated in.
M + P + R = How powerful
So for Nauceans would be 9 months, 97 pages, aprox 10 Role Playing Threads = about 116 Power Score
-
I dunno about pages...I mean, a bunch of yours is part spam, and then you had to lock it and stuff.
-
I dunno about pages...I mean, a bunch of yours is part spam, and then you had to lock it and stuff.
But thats popularity. All pages that are spam or comments count under a popularity value. See?
-
I think that this would be a little more accurate....
1/2W + P + 2R = Power Lvl.
-
Well, some of the spam was random off-topic crap.
(not that I have any say in this, not having a creature)
-
idk, i think we should just keep it 'intuitive'
-
I think that this would be a little more accurate....
1/2W + P + 2R = Power Lvl.
Is W supose to be my M?
Cause i thought months were good. Cause it it were like days or weeks that woudl be too many. Months was a good way. Newbees would get like 1 or 2 while long term would get 8 to 9. Which is easier to make in with role playing or adding to your creature thread.
I would be more for ...
M + P + 2R = Power Lvl.
or even
M + P1/2 + 2R = Power Lvl
if you want to take half the spam out of the creature threads.
-
W was supposed to be "Week" but I didn't really want to give that more leverage anyway.
How about M + 3/4P + 2R + 3A
A=Alliance
Tell me if that is not needed/wanted, it was a thought.

Alliance? You mean how many allances you are in? Like say the Torpals are in CAB, LAH, POP, S.W.U. and probbly soem other ones i missed. Thats already 12. I think they should count under the Role Playing threads, so say the The Ion-Games, Arcadia, CAB all count equally. Thus your total is that times 2.
M + 3/4P + 2R = Power Level
Sounds more reasonable. Now to calucate for the Naucean ...
9 = 9 Months
72.75 = 3/4 (97) Posts
20 = 2(~10) Role Playing / Alliance Threads
102 = 101.75 (round up)
102 = Power Level
How is that?
-
Quillaran...
6= 6 Months
3.75= (5) Pages
4 = 2(*2) Role Playing / Alliance Threads
13.75= 12 (round up)
14 = Power Level
I feel weak....... :P
-
awsome or not Quillrians were in a little number of things
-
Quillaran...
6= 6 Months
3.75= (5) Pages
2 = 2(*1) Role Playing / Alliance Threads
11.75= 12 (round up)
12 = Power Level
I feel weak....... :P
You were in Prison Escape and CAB Areku that should be 2 * (2 posts) so thats 4 .... power level 14 i think.
-
hold on, are we going by pages or posts??? If pages, Naucean has lower power, if posts, Qullarian has higher power.
-
hold on, are we going by pages or posts??? If pages, Naucean has lower power, if posts, Qullarian has higher power.
Pages, not posts.
And yes Nauceans really have a 97 page long thread now.
And your Necros have 14. But the real number that counts is 3/4(14) ... 10.5 = P
Then you have been ahere about a month Necro so that 1 = M
Ad you have been in 2 necro war threads, and part of a necro alliance, plus probbly somthing else i missed so thats ~ 5 (2)
P = 10.5
M = 1
R = 10
Power Level = 21.5 (round up)
So your Power Level is 22 Necro.
-
for alliances/fanfics, is that by the things themselves, or the actual topics...like, there's 2 threads for the necrid war so far, halcyon had a few related threads...would those as one each, or several, for each topic?
-
Necromonicon
1 = 1 month
11.25 = 3/4x15 pages
8 = 4x2 (2 RP, 1 alliance, 1 home thread)
20 = 20.25 rounded up
Thus, the Necromonicon (species) are power level 20.
My account, however, would be powered as such:
Necro
1 = 1 month
11.25 = 3/4x15 pages
8 = 4x2 (2 RP, 1 alliance, 1 home thread)
20 = 20.25 rounded down
Gryfon
.5 = half of a month
.3/4 = 3/4 of 1 page
8 = 4x2 ( 2 RP, 1 alliance, 1 home thread)
9 = 9.25 rounded down
Tortullakeet
.1 = a few days
1.5 = 3/4x2 pages
2 = 1x2(no RPs, no alliances, 1 home thread)
4 = 3.6 rounded up
20 + 9 + 4 = 31
Thus, my account TheNecromonicon (member) has a power rating of 33.

for alliances/fanfics, is that by the things themselves, or the actual topics...like, there's 2 threads for the necrid war so far, halcyon had a few related threads...would those as one each, or several, for each topic?
Well i don;t think like the wepons thread or vechicle threads count... both necro wars count though i think.
Necromonicon
1 = 1 month
10.5 = 3/4x14 pages
4 = 2x2 (1 RP, 1 alliance)
42 = Total
Thus, the Necromonicon are power level 42.
OMG I'M THE ANSWER!!!! :o
We are adding not multiplying (otherwise my Nauceans would be 13095)
1 + 10.5 + 4 = 15.5 .... but you have more than jsut 2 role playing/alliances.
-
Hahaha I know, I was just playing around to see what kind of cool numbers I could get. I'll add it up properly. Also, the Necromonicon (species) are only in The Necrid Discord and the NDA alliance. You only have one species, but I (meaning my 3 species combined) would be much greater on the ladder if all three were included in the same equation under my name.

You would not want that, becuase i have a butt load of creatures .... ;)
Oh btw your necro thread is up to 15 posts now ;) not 14 anymore :D

The equation may only include SAPIENT creatures on the forum. No random critters who happen to live on the planet with sapients. You can't use the gobblehorn as a power base :P
-
okey dokey let's see...i think i did this right...
07 = 7 Months
18 = 3/4 (24) Pages
46 = 2(23)* Role Playing / Alliance Threads
71 = Total
Power Level = 71
i'm happy ;D
edit: fixed. still happy 8)
*holy zesh i've been in alot :o :D
-
Yeah that sounds about right. I was wondering how many you were in. I might have a little much with my 10.
I have ....
1. Prison Escape
2. CAB
3. LAH
4. Battle of Thishen
5. Scion Complex
6. Necro War 1
7. Arena Battle Planet ( started but stopped)
8. The Ion-Games (started but stopped)
9. Arcadia (started but stopped)
10. Various other thread such as in OTHER, and Creature Threads (everyone should just count this as one if you posted in other peoples threads contactign them or other alliances).
So i either have 10 or 6 depending upon how you look at it. What do you think? Should i count 7 to 10 as one and have just 7 role playing threads?
-
There... my power levels are edited and accurate as of.... now.
-
So we are counting one threads now? Whatever 10 sounded good for me anywho.
-
im not sure now...these are what i counted:
1.Prison Escape
2.First Galactic War
3.The New - Prison Escape Adventure!
4.Coadunation of Autonomous Beings (CAB)
5.The LAH: League Against Halcyon
6.Arena Battle Planet
7.Events so far: Halycon Vs LAH
8.The Battle of Thishen
9.The End of the Halcyon War
10.Aegis Station Investigation
11.The Hunt For Jai Repxor
12.Ion-Grand Prix
13.The Siege of Antimon
14.The Ion-Games
15.The S.W.U.
16.The Reclaiming Of Durl
17.SWU Battlefield: Taking over the Planets
18.Scion Complex
19.The Necrid Discord War
20.New Alliance-POP
21.Arcadia
22.The Necrid Discord War (Part 2)
23.Pseudo Sequence: Chapter One: The Revloution
24.Casmut Tsull
25.The Galactic Embassy & Congress
26.First Galactic Encounter
i went by topics...should i make 5,7,8, and 9 count as one, for example?
-
Here's what I based my calculations on:
2 times (# of RPs + # of alliances + 1 home thread)
3/4 times # of PAGES in home thread
Time your creature has been here in months is devided as:
.1 = a few days
.25 = one week
.5 = two weeks, half a month
.75 = 3 weeks
1 = one month
2 = two months
ex: 4.75 would be 4 months 3 weeks, IF you can remember. If not, just round to the nearest month.
RP means EACH TOPIC. Ex: because the ND will be in three parts, if you participate in all three it will count as 3 RP's. If you only post in the first and third, you'd only get 2 RP's.
If you have multiple SAPIENT creatures, you may add their stats individually to find your ACCOUNT power.
Does everyone agree with this?

I think those should not count. LAH counts as an alliance. end of the war is a just a summary, and the new prison escape was jsut a redo of the first part.
-
sounds good to me
power level fixed

sounds good to me
power level fixed
you changed your total but not your power level, its still at 77.

Ok so far ...
Naucean = 102
Torpal = 71
Omic = 32
Kazea = 29
Necromonicon = 20
Quillaran = 14
Gryfon = 9
Tortullakeet = 4
Thats not too bad. Based on thsi we can figure out Super Powers, Major Powers, Lesser Powers, Minor Powers and Obscure Powers.
Mega Powers
101 to 120
Naucean = 102
Super Powers
81 and 100
Major Powers
61 to 80
Torpal = 71
Lesser Powers
41 to 60
Minor Powers
21 to 40
Omic = 32
Kazea = 29
Obscure Powers
0 to 20
Necromonicon = 20
Quillaran = 14
Gryfon = 9
Tortullakeet = 4
Geesh i i had to streach this one .... It still seems wrong ... :-\
-
Torpal are at 71...
-
i like the old way better :-\
-
Omic is
Month(s) = 1
Page(s) = 20.25
RP(s) = 5
Alliance(s) = 2
= 28 points
Is that right?
-
Omic is
Month(s) = 1
Page(s) = 20.25
RP(s) = 5
Alliance(s) = 2
= 28 points
Is that right?
ummm... no
its like this
1 = 1 month
15 = 3/4x20 pages
16 = 8x2 (5 RP's, 2 alliances, 1 home thread)
32 = 32
Omic are at power level 32.
-
Yay makes me feel warm and bubbly inside, no wait I just wet myself....
-
Ok i added the Omic to the scale.
-
Cool. :)
-
I will do the Kazea ...
M = 7 Months
P = 3/4 (24) = 18 Posts
R = 2*1 (1 RP (Prison Escape), 0 Alliances)
Power Level = 33
Hmm that seems sad .... :'(
-
Hmm that seems sad .... :'(
which is why we shouldn't use numbers
we haven't figured anything else out officially, why start with this?
-
OMG I'm higher than Necromonicon & Quillaran?!?!! cool!
-
i like the old way better :-\
Me too. I think 'number of fanfics participated in' is a poor indicator. For a start I'm getting bored of anew one popping up every day. I'm also having the ViS as aloof from anything that doesnt directly affect them precisely because theyre already powerful.
Also, about the new pictures thing. I dont care that there arent any 'alliance' pictures, but the fact that none of the member races seem to have any illustrations hurts their popularity and integrity. I cant even name one of them off the top of my head, but I can name most of the races of note in the CAB, OTHER and SWU.
-
Hmm that seems sad .... :'(

Becuase i thought some sorrt of scale would be helpful. Rather than just one based upon perception. Perhaps a mixture of the 2 is better. Calulated score and perception score somehow mixed to make an over all score.

So should pictures count? Should it be based on RP power? For isntance the necros are very weak on my scale but would ve very powerful according to the descriptions.
-
I will do the Kazea ...
M = 7 Months
P = 3/4 (24) = 18 Posts
R = 2*1 (1 RP (Prison Escape), 0 Alliances)
Power Level = 33
Hmm that seems sad .... :'(
I notice you guys keep forgetting to add +1 home thread to RP and Alliances. Also, lable it as 18 pages, not 18 posts, to avoid confusion. by my count its
7 = 7 months
18 = 3/4x24 pages
4 = 2x2 (1 RP, 0 alliances, 1 home thread)
29 = 29
Kazea are power level 29.
If you want to change the system do it now, and remake this thread once everything is officially decided.
-
i vote we go back to perception! who's with me?
-
It should focus on there main topic, cause rping doesint really make you stronger
-
How about this:
We take the total score we have, then deem on a scale of 1 - 10 the "perception" we have of their power, with 10 being Nauceans. The calculated first total is MULTIPLIED to the perception scale number chosen
Say, my Necromonicon at 20 are multiplied by 7 on the scale. Thus I'd be at 140.
-
how do you number perception? thats kind of against the point...not to mention it's easily arguable
so no one's with me, i take it?
i dont care, i'll say sam's with me
-
i vote we go back to perception! who's with me?
I'm with you. You cant quantify respect. The only reason I agree to the Necro being so powerful is because he had the guts to just jump into a forum where no-one knew him and start this whole war deal. I think a good test is: How many people can name your creature off the top of their head? How many people can tell you what it looks like and what its characteristics are? I dont know what a Kratok is or does but I sure as hell know what the Nauceans or Torpals are about.
-
yeah becuase for instance the Torpals would seem to be higher to be a super power (rather than a Major) while the Nauceans would seem to be lower for a super power (rather than an Mega power) according the the calculation scale as it is now.
-
I'm just tossing out random suggestions here, don't take anything I say to heart. If you guys choose to go back to numberless perception I'm all for it.

Well we all know the super and most of the major powers but how do you decide who is the lesser and minor? And is there a tangable way for them to move up?

Is it based on how many rp threads? nice descriptiosn and pictures in their creature threads or jsut the fact they are around? Or even all of those? Or is it based on what the majority thinks of them. For instance what if there is someone who has really great creature threads and alot but never gets noticed? Will they be a lower power based upon their inactivity in the role playing thread?
-
Well we all know the super and most of the major powers but how do you decide who is the lesser and minor? And is there a tangable way fo them to move up?
what if every creature in debate just puts up a poll on their thread? something like:
do you think [creature] is :
~major power?
~minor power?
~obscure power?
and then they become whatever the people chose
-
Maybe it should just rest on the opinions of the super powers, as it always has. When you three (Hydro, Krakow, Opera) say something is cool, people flock to it. Maybe you guys should have total control over who goes where, by voting on it for each sapient species, and as more people become super powers (very slowly), only the super powers get to vote.

I think thats a good idea. Do i (or the torpal or vis) really need to do that though?

The problem in that is I can honestly say i don't read every single post in every creature thread and even less in the role playing ones. Its not becuase I don't like them, its jsut there are WAY too many. In the past i use to all the time, but as there have become more and more I have been choosier on whos i like to read and whos i jsut don't have time to read.

now there's a plan :D

i think super powers and most major powers cen be agreed on without needing a vote

Omic should be Minor then.

Thats what I'm saying though: those you like to read who you deem 'cool' can given higher status faster. Those who are boring will be forced to "spice it up."

Hmmm. We could write it into the fanfic. Something along the lines of:
In studying the precursor relics of this region of space, the ViS have unearthed a rather disturbing pattern. Great civilisations rise, reach a zenith, and then, without warning, collapse. It has been found there is a crucial precursor point, beyond which a civilisation is immediately susceptible to suffering a mysterious total downfall. In an attempt to stop the whole galaxy from once again reverting to barbarism and starting all over again the three civilisations nearest to the precursor point, the Nauceans, the Torpal and the ViS have joined together in a secret alliance, trancending all other alliances, to regulate power in the galaxy. Although no other races know of this these three are acting as invisible puppet masters, manipulating events so they remain the only three in danger, while they all feverishly work on a way to counteract the precursor problem. Dun, dun daaaah!
-
Lol, that sounds cool!

Are you saying the super powers endorsing peoples threads are like monoliths?
-
Living monoliths!
-
Thats exactly what I was trying to say... in more words lol
-
I think this idea works best, I completely endorse all three creatures! [/sucking up for better stats for Omic]
-

Everyone sucks but me!! Er wait... this is not going well... :-\
-
No matter where the Necromonicon are on the scale, they still get dashed, they go extinct.
All I can do now is hope my Tortullakeet and Gryfon get more attention, they're the ones who get to stick around, even though they aren't remotely as cool as the Necros *sigh*
Maybe... I'll keep one small band of Necromonicon on a deserted planet... ready to start up more chaos a long time from now ::)
Plus, expect to see Necro's invading your planet in Spore, im DEFINATELY making them once the game comes out :P
-
Lol! Lets burn Hydro and the stake, and don't worry, i will take over the nauceans.... :D
-
Hydro, with all respect, you're an idiot. Quantifying this sort of thing is stupid, because the measuring system will always screw someone over. What about people whose threads aren't all that long but they have huge amounts of detail and backstory in other threads? We should keep it intuitive, a tacit agreement that certain races are powerful and certain races aren't.
I agree with Operaghost and Sam, we don't need to change anything.

I was being semi serious. If people like it maybe we should go ahead with it. A few pictures of ViS, Torpals and Nauceans being mysterious and clandestine ;)
-
I can already think of a way for a major plot to happen with this, I'll put my suggestion in if we actually do this. ;)
-
Uh... but if it were to go ahead only the ViS, Torpals and Nauceans could be involved... on account of it being so secret.
-
I think the Forthi should at least be in the minor power section. they did start up the Delegation of Unifed Powers alliance, a new up and coming power...
I don't even know who you are, and I don't know anything about the DUP. Who's in it?
They are the unofficial "Noobs Alliance."...And "Auyuelcliad Wannnabes Alliance."
Naahhh...they're cool..
I remeber hearing that kind of thing about O.T.H.E.R. a while back.... ;)
As for the rant, I've seen a lot of those and this is the first time it has even been mentioned that it is against the rules.
People were saying the oldest alliance on the board doesn't compare to the others? Riiiiiigggghhhhhhtttt.....

I agree with Operaghost and Sam, we don't need to change anything.
EG, The Icthians.
Im totally against formal classification apart from the stages of Superpower, major....
The scoring system is unnesscaily complicated.
-
It is too complicated, I agree. Also, large amounts of some threads are RP (like mine was in the beginning). And Hydro, I beg to differ, not every spam/off-topic post in your thread was Naucean related. I trust my intuition.
-
well when i looked over this thread I was suprised at how many posts it got ;D But i suck at math so i couldnt understand alot of it ???. But anyway I do like the suggestion that we put a poll up and people vote on what kind of power you should be.
-
well I'm a major power, so I'm happy
-
well I'm a major power, so I'm happy
Same...
-
im pretty satisfied being a minor power, Hell i started the Kangorians like 2 weeks ago i already climbed the ladder one rung, im happy with that ;D
-
Where's thje official list, cause i don't know if i got changed from an obscure power or not...
-

Well who's fault its that? *chuckles* its not my fault people spam in my Naucean thread. I tell them to stop but they keep on doing it.
-
Well, either way, that new system is too complex
-
Two Things...
1. The Number system seems really wrong, in that you can't make a system of how "good" a creature is...
2. What category does the Gaming Steve forum as a whole think the Matarissans would fall under? I know they have not been in many RP's, but look through the thread...There are a lot of pictures, history, time & effort in those pages...What do you think?
-
Sorry about this, I just don't want to make a useless thread but, you think that the RP's should have their own sub-forum? Like the spore creatures got theirs?
-
Sorry about this, I just don't want to make a useless thread but, you think that the RP's should have their own sub-forum? Like the spore creatures got theirs?
Yes. Everyone could just make an "Embassay thread" and it would stop CC form being full os RP's and similar- there are as many RP threads as there are creatures nowadays.

Minor power
-
I think some of us just aren't RP savvy enough to rise the ranks. Not to mention most of them are up to 10 pages by the time I even see them. I agree that that formula is really unfair. I have a whole lot of info in my first post, and just updated that. I have lots of pictures(Though not very good, I tried to get them atleast accurate), I elaborated on the Turnaq's culture, evolution, their whole SOLAR SYSTEM! <rant> But I keep seeing all these things where, yes, they look original, but I can easily see someone just randomly putting on parts to a creature. "Um this is the Ilikortyhgpokian, it has a sonic hearing aid. I have iamge now so I'll elaborate more laters!". And then theres ones that are "WELL ITS CALLED PEEHSONOID AND IT USES ITS TOXIC WOOL TO FEND OFF PREADTORS." with a picture of a sheep holding a sword! </rant>

How about this: The home thread of the creature gets changed to a poll listing the power heirarchy, and the place where the most votes are determines their place. Democracy FTW.
-
I dunno where the Borark fall into the new system, but RP-wise they'd be either an obscure-power or a minor-power. I don't really see them as being a species who has the desire to have much power. They're quite happy in the own solar system. Although, individuals or small groups may be found working with or for other species.
-
Bonemouse, I think your pictures would make sure that you're not an obcure power, at the very least you might be a minor. :)
-
Thanks, but other then pictures, I haven't really fleshed out the Borark and their society all that much, unlike most creatures that have been created here.
-
Yeah i think that is another factor, drawing quality. One that are drawn well tend to rise in popularity dispite not having much of a storu behind them. This shows you how much people put on eye candy. Also the very reason why i do almost all my posts with a description AND a picture.
-
Yeah but the fleshed out ones usually dont have many pictures, which is bad. I think people respect pictures alot so if you did flesh them out a bit you'd defiently be a minor power. Maybe even major after some time. But what do i know ;D
-
Good point. Another secret i do is i draw a picture first with a vague idea on how it should fit into the storyline. Then when i am posting i write a 1 to 3 paragraph description addding a little more to the history and describing the picture. In short i make it up right before i post each time of what the exact history is for it. It has worked out great. I think more people should do this rather than fleshing out a whole entire history and time line and then feeling overwhelmed with the amount of drawing they have to now make because they already described it.
I really think of my time line as a blurry picture. And each new picture i do adjusts that part into focus. As more parts i put in on the line the more i am guided and limited in what i can do. This is both a good and bad thing. On the one hand I am limited and cannot go too crazy in what happends or it will be inconstant to the future, on the other hand it starts to write itself. For instance i had been making a theme for what type of architecture the should be for the Nauceans and i choose spherical cause it looked cool. Because of this i wondered what a car would look like and i though it would probably be similar so i made a sphere car and all other vehicles have had some sort of spherical nature to them, from the tanks, planes, space station even the UFO is a sphere. In turn i had to eventually make a reason for this so after creating the Hydromancy religion of water i made up that everything is spherical because it is the divine shape of falling water and bubbles (because rain drops fall in a sphere shape not a "raindrop" shape).

Holy crap Hydro, the paragraphs man! The paragraphs!

I think that's a good way to work. I sorta did that when coming up with what the Borark looked like. I draw a monopod frog thing, then drew the creature it evolved from, then draw the creature it evolved to (the sapient form) with each drawing influecing the others.
My major issue is that the Borark are pain in the ass to draw. I think I'm going to come up with a new creature that I won't mind drawing more then a handful of times.
-
Hydro reveals one of his secrets, all hail Hydro! Jk.
Oh, Bonemouse even though they are hard to draw they look amazing. Oh, and I figure the harder it is to draw the more accomplished you feel after. ;)
-
Oh, I do. I'm proud of how the Borark turned out. I just don't particularily feel the need to put myself through the pain over and over again everytime I want to add something to their history.
I want some more practice with costume/tech design. And it'd be nice to work with species that is a bit more human looking (boring, I know ;).) I also want to draw sexy alien women, and I'm sorry, but there is no way in hell the Borark will ever be considered sexy. :P
-

Thats why the oral tentacles can hide pseudo mandibles in case i get lazy and do not want to draw them every time.
-
See, you're smart. I should have figured out a way for the Borark's leg to hide inside it's body somehow. ;)
-
I too was motivated by lazyness.... well that and a knowledge of my own poor artistic skills. I mean, anyone could draw a passable (or at least recognisable) ViS.
-
i would say tyronians would be very low on the power list. they are suppliers, they help build power rather than take it for themselves.
(but they are not selfless. they only want money :P)
-
I really don't think you can put this kind of thing into a numbered system; the tacit agreement works way better.
-
True, and as for the Ryndalians, since they can change their shape, color, and just about any other feature about them at will it makes them easy to draw, since I can draw anything and pass it off. So yeah, (Though nobody cares because I don't have 50+ pics.).
My idea was so much diffrent when I made it up, I had to wait like 12-36 hours to post it and over that time it must have changed over 20 times.
-
Like it's commonly said, dedication/originality/amount of info/pictures/longevity = respect and critique from other readers = race power. This keeps things at a healthy level of competition I would say, so rather than ten zillion poorly-defined bit races running around, you get a quality over quantity effect whereby the more effort and dedication you pour into your creation, the more powerful they become in RP as a result. Longevity also helps (just look at Hydromancer), but I would say effort comes first, and that if you put in the effort, you get respect, which will allow you to do more things, which will result in your creature staying around longer. Here's my interpretation of the powers:
Super Powers
IRL, you would analogue these to large, powerful and resourceful countries like America or China. Everyone knows of them and knows their power. They might not neccecarily respect or like them, but the fact remains that they are by far a major player in intergalactic affairs. These are creatures which have a vast wealth of info, are well-known on the RP to a sort of iconic extent, or have been around a looooong time.
I have to say that what goes up must go down, because one day the super powers of today will not be the superpowers of tomorrow eg. USA, The Roman empire. So there must be a way to rise and fall in power other wise the ones in super power position will always be a super power.
Also it must not be based on time as their are countries which have been around for along time on earth but never come a super power.
-

That's where the analogy to Earth breaks down. It is based on time like it or not, and there's no reason for a power to fall unless their creator wants them to do so.

Galatic Empires would probably last alot longer than planet-based ones. There is also the advantage of more or less infinite resources in the universe. I agree that the creator should decide if and when thier empire falls. You think no alien empires will? The Caanth, The Kawenu and The Wexxians* did.
*Or will. Or whatever.
Another thing, how many are there of each race? The ViS are the most numerous, and i have Auyuelcliads pegged at about 275 billion.
There are about 25 all-Auyuelcliad planets in The Auyuelcliad Empire, and about 5 Multi-racial. the Multi-racialm planets are still mostly Auyuelcliadic (about half population). So if each planet has an average 10 bil pop/n, 25x 10 bil= 250 billion, with the multi racial planets: 5 x 5bil= 25 billion.
275 billion. Wow.
-
I cant be arsed to calculate but I'd say that ViS in the galaxy number in the trillions, the Administration controlling millions of planets (not all inhabited) with large numbers of ViS in stasis on board ships and space stations and so forth.
-
Oh dear. I forsee this going down the e-penis route we took with the starship sizes. Everyone is going to post slightly bigger and bigger populations in an attempt to artificially inflate their power.
Please let's not do this.
-
Im thinking my guys are at about 19 billion. Thats why they use drones for most tasks. :P
-
Ryndalian Population is not that high, partially because they kill each other all the time. In the council there are probablly 45-70 Million. This is the largest Ryndalian group mind you, but since there are 80+ of them and another few forming as I type this, I can't judge them because they vary from 12 to 300,000 to 6 million, you get the point. Though I don't think the total Ryndalian population exceeds 10 billion and wont for a while longer.
-
The Forthi inhabit about 5 planets fully, but have discovered many other with their exploration group. The other worlds they control are used for industrial purposes or military outposts with only one major city. They probably have about 75 billion (they live to about 60 years, reproduce in large litters and take up little space with their engineering feats. Their population has been booming since the discovery of other planets/races).
-
Considering the Vladtokju just killed off most of the Turnaqs, I'd say there's only about 100,000 left. Poor wittle guys.
-
The Necromonicon were at 10 billion at their highest point, 9.2 billion mid-way through the ND. But while thats no 275 billion Auyucliads, every Necromonicon could probably slaughter a couple hundred or even thousand before being killed, especially since the Auyu aren't as techno'd up as the ViS or Naucean, and if they attacked a Auyu planet with a lot of civilians.

so im obscure? i thought i made the Peskitoriantais to stand out, at least for the week they were, along with Burinees ;D
sorry i was gone cause i was moving. Ill try and get more info and stuff and post more again.

By obscure we mean weak technologically or not-all-that-important in RP. It doesn't mean unknown. Everyone knows the Peskit cause they are annoying (no offence) but they're not that advanced, thus they are placed as obscure.

well the Burinee are pretty advanced, more then the Peski's and they are under obscure
and with that big math problem, can someone do that for me ;D

I don't think people are using any of those anymore, if otherwise please tell me.

This is just a thought of mine but I think that of someone could give a list of the Civilizations of the forum and like give them a number from 1 to 10 depending on powerful they are. I think it give newbies(including me) a sense of how powerful the different Races are and the standing in the Universe. Although its probably a really stupid idea but whatever I thought it could be interesting. :P
Sorry for the bumpage but how could this have worked? Everybody says that their creatures are the strongest unless we use some sort of system...

I don't quite agree on that. As much as I know this won't work, I think we should just say that it's logical here. More people probably know and respect Omics than they do Loricatii, but a Loricatus could turn one into fig paste with a motion of its hand and a few figs. Just look at it logically. A Torpal is much more beloved than a Giganommoth, but a Torpal won't win that Arm Wrestling Contest. In combat though, I do agree that your system works a bit better as more people will side with who they think is cooler.

Whilst it's obvious that a Torpal could step on an Omic, the "power" thing is about empire power not individual creature power. So hypothetically speaking Omics, whilst much smaller than say a Giganommoth, their empire is nevertheless potentially more powerful.
Now I should probably note that a person would be allowed to limit the power of their own empire, should they feel the need. But I can't think of anyone who has done that so far.
-
Omics, Wexxicans, to name two.

To stop the above. ^

Y'see Balth, there's something called ignoring idiots. The recent Holy Emperor thing is a good example of such.
And limiting their empire how? I've been specific about the Loricatii. Three star systems including their home system, they stay out of Galactic Events, etc. I stayed out of the whole galactic politics thing.

How could you rate such a thing even when te game comes out well unless you use the card rating thing.

In Reply To # 197 To #205
See what I meant? :P I also forgot to mention that know one can agree on the kind of system that we would use....
Basically:
Effort + Originality + Parcipitation + Respect = Power.
I put alot of effort in my creatures (Took me hours to do the first image), I think that I was very original, I participate in the DUP and the Pseudo Sequence threads, I never disrespected someone's creature............and yet the Giganommoths are still minor powers. How do you explain that? :-X

Hey, popularity is a fickle thing. Youre starting to sound like an unnatractive guy trying to explain all his percieved good points to a totally uninterested girl.

How so? If you mean drawing other stuff like weapons, tools, etc. I'm getting there.

Like I said, I'm getting there............I'm just giving images about they looks first (Male front, back, side and re-do the female)
-
I never wanted anything... i was just doing it for fun 8)
-
I bet a good way to get your creature to be a superpower would to make a race of naughty amazonian space vixens.
-
I actually made a joke about that once with my Hydrians =P (Old dead thread, use the search engine!)
-
Another way to make your race a superpower is to start a whole new galaxy. ;) Seriously though, it's not a competition. This should be fun.
As a defense to the current so called superpowers, they're popular for a reason. And that's not only because they have more drawings/better drawings, more detailed information, or been around longer (although that all helps). It's because they strike a chord with people. This may be by chance or it may be the result of an iterative process. So either be happy with your races position in this fanfic universe or take what you've learned and try again.
One more thought. In most media flaws make a character more interesting. Keep that in mind.
-
I think the age has a BIG factor in how popular something is. The earlier someone joins, the more likely someone is to know it if they're involved.
-
No, Bonemouse is absolutely right. The Nauceans were stupid-popular almost as soon as they were made and posted. The Torpal took a little while to get going, but time really isnt an issue.
-
It's also important to note that before these creatures were posted there were a lot of run-of-the-mill creatures. To give a good analogy, it's like these superpowers are the printing press. Sure, there were a lot of inventions before and after that, but the printing press stands out because it is important, not because it is old.
-
are the Peskitoriantais really obscure? i would think they would be at least Minor for what the classifications would be. I dont know how many flames they started, so i thought you guys "knew" them.

i hope my creature will become a super power in your eyes , becuz i think they own all (exept torpals and nauceans)

Yes. Except nobody likes DZ and it would fail because of that. But this formula is true, and everybody either knows it or is too stuck up to admit it. This is why interesting, well thought out races drawn in paint will fail.

I'm sorry, but I have to agree with this. Most people will only pay attention to a creature if there are really good pictures or if they are friends with the creator. So, people who have been here for a long time are best known and because of that, they are most likely to get good feedback, the same way as people who make great drawings.

3 pages is a lot in my eyes, it took me atleast a week of constant updating to get to 3 pages on my old creatures.
Dude, don't spam, that's bad.

me? spamming? how did you got that rediculous idea :-\
i gonne RP ;D

Yes. Except nobody likes DZ and it would fail because of that. But this formula is true, and everybody either knows it or is too stuck up to admit it. This is why interesting, well thought out races drawn in paint will fail.
Thats not true at all. Maybe its just that all the races drawn in paint so far have been somewhat uninteresting.

Maybe they are. And maybe that 90th generic dragon thing is totally original and deserves pages and pages of praise.

Alot of Major Powers have less pages than Minor or Lesser Powers. I generally have updates spliced into one post for ease.

Yes, I tend to loose interest in a lot of species, simply because I have to dig through 30 pages in order to find the stuff I deem interesting. That's why I make all my updates in the first post, and just make a small post stating that I updated the first post.
-
i've been doing around 2 updates a day, with around 1 response for 2 updates. I just felt like mentioning that

Welcome to Paint World. I'm your tour guide and president, Malt. Over there is ignore central, and to your left you'll see the monuments of the Vis, Naucean, and Torpal to which you'll NEVER LIVE UP TO!

Well im doing it in flash, and comments are kinda rare for me too, although its true that I havent been doing much history lately.
-
i like you flash though! ;D
so how do i solve the formula to see my creatures "true" classification?

Honestly, Netherflare, I haven't seen you around here too much. I wouldn't know. Maybe that's why you're currently rated "obscure".
EDIT:
Having said that, I just went over your latest stuff. It's quite good. Realistically, I don't think the classification system was a very good idea anyway.
-
i havent been here for the last 2 months, but when i did sign up and stuff, i certainly got a name for myself when i was flamed and critizized that would last to the end of never.
But i understand if ppl forget about them, just like Hollywood, if you dont do something for awhile, ppl will lose interest and move on

My race is a superpower because I wont let any other superpower survive in my universe. It's really that easy for your race to be a superpower because other players dont have any control on your own universe. You can decide to not let any torpals in your game which once the game comes out who knows what will be more powerful than the other.

#1 So what do you do in your own galaxy? Are their other role players in your galaxy? Are you starting to feel a little isolated?
#2 I will :P
-
Actualy im very anti social so isolation is a good thing and well theres no multiplayer in this game so your going to be isolated no matter what.

Where'd you get that info from? ??? If anything, SPore would not have a singleplayer mode.
-
Well it is single player you cant directly affect other players. They just might see your race on a random planet but if they destroy that planet a planet on your solar system wont die because of it.

Are you so sure about that? Tell me, where did you read that? Give me the link. We don't know yet if their is a game over or not....

I'm very sure Ive watched the e3 videos and Will wright has outright said that there is no simultaneous multiplayer. Think of it like a sand box only you are in in no other people to knock your castle down or cats to poop in. I think that describes Will's feellings cowards direct multiplayer.
Also I think the 1up video has will wright talking about why it is a massivly single player game.

It would be nice to see some more multiplayer aspects put in maybe a new universe with direct multiplayer it would be interesting to see.

Nazzul, get out of this part of this website, please, this is about our own fanfic/spore universe, with some Spore Games, not a list of our alrady created spore creatures.

This is true. Nazzul, you seem to have missed the point of the creation corner.

Well this thread is now pretty useless since people are going to start their new galaxies/universes and be the superpowers over there...

#1 I believe that it is. If the VIS, Torpal & Nauceans are the most popular that means that they'll be more likely to receive visitors from another universe/planet rather then them visiting another. The players race is the greatest if they stay in their galaxie. I'm sure that if I visited the Torpal and declared war on them, I'd get owned. But if they decided to come to my universe and declare war on me, they'd get pwned. Same would go for lets say the Nauceans and the Athosians or the ViS and the Omic etc.
And colliding galaxies/universes would not be a very good idea and might end up in a flaming RP :P
It might sound corny but...
#2 So?

i prefer just 1 big galaxy and since there is so many stars and solar systems in 1 galaxy, it should be fine if we all stayed in it!
