Looks like you're having a participation proble ... Well, just send e a P if I can help. In the eanti e, I'll keep posting in the foru s. I' not gonna post if I don't have anything to respond to though... It would help if there was a greater range of participation. I think we should have a e bership drive or so ething.

Yes we are. In spite of some new members we seem to have lack of activity. I wonder why? Is it cuz this game is old news? Even if it's not a new game, it's so much fun it's not even funny (at least for me it is).

I've discovered a site that is attempting to create a FFT role playing system.
http://august.cannis.net/fft/fft.php
I'm just posting it here, because I'm, at school and can't save the URL. :3
I'm going to check it out later. biggrin

That's a pretty interesting site... It seems it's only 10% completed as of now.

Yes, but from what I've read so far, it seems to have what we're missing.

Cool!

You know what? I got an idea that might get members to be more active. I was thinking of some kind of guild event. Should I keep going here or tell you about it at the castle for mods?

Where ever your hearts content. XD
If you talk about it in the castle of the mods, then the guild will have no idea what's coming at them. XD

Attention! I have sent out a newsletter to all members of the guild! Here it is:

Attention all members of the Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Guild!

I know you’re all waiting for the role playing system. I’ll bet this was why you joined. And I’m willing to bet this is why you don’t post (If you do post, I’m not talking to you. :3). Well, before we can finish the role playing system, I need to calculate chance of hitting, and to do this, I need data from the game. And I don’t think gamefaqs has it. So what I need from you all is for you to play your FFTA (when you have a chance) and take data. Then send me the data.

What I need is for you to engage an enemy in combat and make a chart on paper or on the computer like so:
User Image
This is what each column means:

First Column: Attack Type
Meaning – physical or magic (no abilities)

Second Column: Facing
Meaning – one of three: Face-to-Face; Side; Back
If you attack from the side, then put side. If you attack from the front put “Front” or “Face to Face”. If you attack from Behind, then put “Back” or “Behind”.

Third Column: Player ATK/POW
Meaning - Put the attacking character’s offensive stat. Either Weapon ATK (physical) or Magic POW (magical).

Fourth Column: Enemy DEF/RES
Meaning - Put the victim’s defensive stat. Either Weapon DEF (physical) or Magic RES (magical).

Fifth Column: % Hit
Meaning – When you attack, the game calculated the amount of damage you do and the percent chance of hitting. Put the calculated percentage chance of hitting.

Sixth Column: Predicted Damage
Meaning – The second number the game predicts when you attack. The calculated damage.

I will do the rest. I need this data to calculate both chance of hitting AND damage.
This does not mean I am forcing you all to play the game. I am just asking, when you play the game to take down this data and send it to me when you have time. We’re all busy, myself included and we can only gather a small amount of data at the one time. But if we all contribute to this data and add it together, it can grow quite big.

When you collect data and wish to send it to me, I will give you many options. You can PM it to me (Marth-chan). You can post it in the thread I am making in the main forum of our guild. You can also e-mail it to me, my e-mail is MarthChan@gmail.com . You can IM it to me, my screen name is MemoriesofMarth . You can send it to me on deviantart, my username is moon-star15 . I have a sheezyart too you can send it to me there also, MarthChan . I do have a myspace, but I never check that and I don’t remember my username, but most likely it is something having to do with Marth. If you wish to send it to me that way, let me know in some way and I shall track down my username. Please, if you send it to me on sheezyart, deviantart or myspace (if you wish), please make it a note, not a comment, thank you.

I am also happy to announce that there is a person in my college who has offered me help. He’s the one who told me to try and calculate these numbers. What I’m looking for is a common number. But don’t worry, you guys don’t need to do any math, I’ll take care of that. I didn’t get high eighties and nineties in Math class for no reason at all! >:3

Thank you everyone!

These are the most recent updates on our role playing system. I'm almost done, I just need the actual battling. XP

While I get help with our accursed battle system, allow me to get things ready!

First off, let me explain how everything is going to be set up.

Battles will be one-on-one unless permission from a Judge or JudgeMaster is given. If you wish to participate in a battle with more than one person on each side, you must PM me or a Judge first!

I, Marth-chan, am the JudgeMaster for the moment, we shall see about Raijekijin.
Which means I will not be taking part in battles. I'm simply going to announce our laws and run the shops, prison, etc.
There will be Moderators, who will be referred to as Judges from now until forever in this guild, who will patrol the Role Playing forums making sure rules are followed and so on.
At the start of out roleplaying madness, there will be only two clans, I will decided upon these clans later. Chances are, I will hold a contest the winners of which will be the leaders of these clans. Members can choose one of the two clans. Members of the clans are a single body, and they may engage other clan members or even their own clan members. They may also take on any mission available as they please. Missions are not limited, any person can take on a mission if they meet the requirements for that mission. More than one person may take on a mission at a time. I still have to work on those however.

Now, for shops. This may get complicated so let me know if you have any problems with it. When a member first starts out, they may only purchase items available in the beginning of the game. I will elaborate on what is available in another thread. There are many shop upgrades throughout the game. And here is how:
To get shop upgrade 1, win 10 battles.
To get shop upgrade 2, with 20 battles.
To get shop upgrade 3, own 10 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 4, own 15 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 5, own 20 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 6, own 21 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 7, own 22 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 8, own 23 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 9, own 24 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 10, own 25 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 11, own 26 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 12, own 28 turfs.
To get shop upgrade 13, own 30 turfs.
(By the way, much of this information, I got from GameFAQs, like this list of how to get shop upgrades.)
I am not sure about Turfs, I may take them out and replace them with battles or something like that.
I'll see about getting little icons that can be put into your character's profile announcing that you have the upgrade and so on.

Moving on to Mission Prizes. When I put out a mission, the prize for that mission will be listed, it will not be random items, I or another Judge will decide upon these prizes.
Law cards, by the way have to be unlocked.

Laws, those evil laws that we all hate. The law will follow your level. At level 20, there will be two laws; at level 35 there will be three laws. Before 20 is one law. Since I am JudgeMaster, I will chose the laws (I promise not to be corrupt!). They will be weekly laws. I will list three laws like so:
"Law One: Forbidden - Steal Recommended - Aim

Law Two: Forbidden - Target Area Recommended - Target All

Law Three: Forbidden - Stop Recommended - Silence"

What this means is that if a member is only level 18, then they will only have to worry about Law One. Some one level 26 would have to worry about Laws One and Two. And finally, some one level 40 would have to worry about all three.

The actual battling is still not finished. I need to collect some data before I can come up with hitting and damage. This will most likely be similar to D&D. So any D&D players will know what’s coming.

To be continued…

I just recently got a pixelart program for the mac. I've been fooling around with it. I was able to create some ribbons and trophies for out role playing system, I can't remember the purpose of the trophies, but the ribbons are for the shop upgrades. :3
This is them:
User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image User Image
These are the trophies:
User Image User Image User Image
This is to announce that a player has gained use of lawcards. :3

And finally! This is for our Judges/moderators! You may use this GIF as you please. :3

I had so much fun making this one.

Those look great Marth-chan!
Say, are the trophies gonna be for tournaments like in the game? As in, we could have a tourney for fencers, mages, fighters and whatnot. That's just my two cents... mrgreen

I'm so sorry guys. College has gotten the better of me, but upon my return, I bring wonderful news! I have been working on a new role-playing battle system. I just need to finish one aspect of stats and we'll be ready to go.
When I am finished, I will test battle with one member of this guild to see that it works. I am creating a contest in the contests sub-forum for this purpose, anyone wishing to participate in the test should head on over to that forum.
I am posting the new system rules in our role-playing sub-forum. I hope everyone who wishes to participate in the role-playing will take a look at it. This system will be updated as time goes on and I become more intelligent in the ways of game-play. Woo!
After the battle system is tested and is playable, I will be holding contests for the leaders of the two starter clans for the role-playing. All members participating in the role-playing must have a clan and there will be requirements for creating your own clan, except for the two starter clans.

Thank you for all your patience, guys and Viera!

It's ok, really. The guild hasn't been much active anyway. I still come and check things out but I don't see anybody. I even sent out a couple of PMs and I haven't gotten replies.
Let's hope things pick up after these news from you. 3nodding

Once I finish those evil charts of DOOM! I will send out a notice to all members of the guild. I don't want to do it alone though...last time it took me FOUR hours to send all of them and we're nearing a hundred members. ._. Can I count on you to help me send them all? Could we split up the roster between the two of us one day when we're both magically on? XD  
PostPosted: Fri Mar 07, 2008 10:17 am


Both of us online at the same time? Easier said than done my friend. And yes, you can count on me for sure; I think I'll be able to help you out in sending PMs. I am crew after all, right? Still, I hope I will have enough time online to do so by the time you are done with the charts.

I'm sooooo very sorry! D:> I've been gone so long! I could kick myself...actually I did. And it hurts.
I'm not done yet, I'm afraid. But I promise I am working on it with all my heart! Please don't hate meeeee! >.<

I've been working with sprites and pixel animations lately. So I'm planning on making little sprites for the guild. But, alas! The system comes first! Now I have incentive to get it done. :3
