CloseEven if someone makes a baddass character, there are ways to tone him down. And score a few laughs of the player.... Hihihihi....
Hohohohoh.....

EDIT: Also, on the Common Events, we could have a common event for each chapter (except the last one?)
to simply have comments in it. So if I created a magic rapier for my character to get later on, but did not use it on my chapter, I could leave a comment "Add this weapon in a possible side dungeon", or something. Oh, about side dungeons, would it be a problem? A fairly hard to find dungeon, entirely skippable, but rather long? IT'd add to the game time, sure. But not in a linear way, in a sense that someone that liked that chapter would like to stay in it for longer, and someone who did not would like to be able to skip it. (So it'd follow an entirely linear and quite short path.)
I just love optional dungeons!
Edit2: My first top of the page, from all my 3 RMN years! xD

Optional dungeons are for people who like the game enough to play them: But the key is they're optional, so it's totally cool. I have no qualms with what you decide to do.
I only brought up the issue of DBS editing / party limit as an idea to consider.
Deckiller made a very good point in irc. If someone doesn't want to use the DBS editting blue magic... then they can always just make Deckiller's character unavailable during that chapter! Very good point.

We do want to appeal to our audience somewhat; they will appreciate a more consistent effort instead of just "one shot" characters. If people do not want to go through the time of creating one or two new blue magic spells for their chapter, I can just create a laundry list in the database, code all possible forks in a common event, and just tell people to copy and paste into battle party events. They'd just have to match monster parties to blue magic (or lack thereof). A 5 minute project.
The reason I suggested blue magic was specifically because it would allow others to be creative in future chapters, so hopefully it will lead to cool results.
Yup! White Wind and Blowfish! xD
I'd love working with blue magic!
EDIT: Also... chapter names, anyone?

No ideas! I get the impression that a lot of this will be winged, except for the obvious logistics stuff like character consistency and who will tie everything together in the second-to-last and last chapters...
Also, scan commands can get a little clunky, especially if you don't plan on a lot of strategic battling in your chapter. I'll just incorporate it as a secondary command that can be added/removed. That way, people don't have to go through the trouble of pasting a "can't scan!" battle page in each monster party.

I still think you should use an item for it. It would work the same as a skillset and could be restricted or lost in a chapter. At least for scan, have a... SCANNER :D
Using items would be ugly... People here can come up with a good usage of our SIMPLE O_Ã" custom systems. and if they can't, what about extending the time by 2/3 days, and offering help? :)
Also, we form in crystals.

Here are the charsets:
As you can see most are not animated, however if you want to use any of them in your chapter, or would like your own character(s), just post the request in this thread and I will make a full sprite sheet. Please only post the requests when you're actually working on your chapter - making those animations takes quite some time and I'd rather not waste it on doing sprites no one will ever make a use of.

Nice work DE!
re: Battle Events
I don't think there'll be any problems making battle events that future participants won't need to deal with besides copy paste. Want to make White Wind? Sure, make a template battle troop with all the events and tell the next participant to copy+paste that template when making new battle troops. It's minimal effort for future participants and I think it's completely reasonable to allow.
What I don't want to do is deal with having to make new (copy+edit, whatever) battle events for old features like Scan. I did all that shit with 2k3 before, I hated it, but I did my time and I'm not going to put up with that again. I'll disable/disallow the skill/character that requires it like mentioned before and reenable it when my chapter ends. Sounds good?

What about coming up with maybe one or two blue magic spells yourself for your chapter?
His chapter is in a world where magic as a whole has been absorbed by the crazed spirit of Ronald McDonald, wich died in the previous chapter. He's taken the DkFOODsauce, and now has become so evil he ate all magic. So no blue magic. I'm gonna have pink magic.
But, seriously, Ronald McDonald.

final boss spotted
*edit*
Wait, I've got the last segment anyways! Ohohohohoho
*reedit*
Wait, if I've got the final segment my good game design sense is telling me I can't just cut out character's or their abilities and aaaaaugh
NOOOOO
THE GUY WHO WANTS TO CUT EVERYTHING OFF WILL CODE THE LAST BATTLE
...
...Seriously, GreatRED. If you want, I can help you in your segment, I can be your slave even. BUT LET ALL THE AWESOME STUFF THAT CERTAINLY WILL HAPPEN BEFORE CHAPTER 10 BE. T_T
Seriously, so many cool things will probably surge... But I recognize it's going to be a LOT of work for you. I guess we can do the tedious/hard part for you YAY XD
Edit: I was thinking... You also could cut everything of and do a cinematic like battle such as the TRUE last battle of FFVII.... Hmm.... Yeah, that'd be a lot less trouble for you, I guess.
