Uncle Sipher obviously has to start lecturing people. @People from GOA Stop attempting to relate this game to GOA, because it isn't GOA. I know that deep down, probably subconsciously a lot of you want this game to basically become GOA 2.0. A version of the game that didn't go off the deep end and start to suck big time. I have my own doubts as well but you should at least give Rory's plan a try before constantly criticizing. Anyone sitting there right now ready to yell "BUT SIPHER YOU WERE JUST CRITICIZING RORY'S BAD IDEAS", you're wrong. The purpose of feedback is to make Rory aware of the problems that could happen and a possible fix in case they missed something when going to the drawing board. @Rory Stop believing you're so high and mighty over BYOND. Every time you mention BYOND, you associate it with negativity. GOA didn't fall apart because it's from BYOND, it fell apart because of poor decisions made by developers. Many great, original games come from BYOND that did not become the undecisive bi-polar schizophrenic girlfriend that is GOA. The only difference between a game on BYOND and Ninonline is the programming language. From what I can tell, everything talked about in this forum can also be done in DM. A lot of the people in that community are nice and helpful as well. You should quit your prejudice while you're ahead, it's disgusting. I'm making you aware of this for your benefit. If I wanted to be an asshole, you would feel the wrath of a thousand suns come down on you. I know you're sincerely trying to make a fun game for everyone while maintaining a positive outlook and attitude, so I try to be...gentle. @Sipher Stop being papa Sipher all the time asshole, why you always need to have a conscience and logical thinking and shit? You keep looking at the big picture far too often, clown.

The Beginning The concept of a beginning is a curious thing, but our tale must start somewhere. From the myriad gods which inhabit this realm, two legendary beings emerged; these were known as Izanagi and Izanami. Together, these beings descended from the heavens and thrust a great jeweled spear into the vast ocean creating the eight islands of the Japanese archipelago - the first land. Izanagi and Izanami sought to populate the new land, and imbue it with the powers of existence. From their intercourse were formed the first kami, entities which lie somewhere in the gray area between gods and spirits. Some benevolent and some wicked, these kami permeated the natural world to create and hold dominion over a great many elements, concepts and qualities. Death and Rebirth Being mortally injured from birthing the kami of the fire element, Izanami passed away to the underworld in the land of Yomi. Desperately seeking to reunite with his partner, Izanagi risked venturing into the land of the dead in search of her. When Izanagi found Izanami and looked upon her, he saw that her flesh was rotting and maggot-ridden. Horrified, Izanagi fled from Yomi and sealed the entrance behind him with a great boulder, forever separating the world of the living from the world of the dead. Disgusted by his close contact with the rotting body if Izanami, Izanagi plunged himself deep into the ocean so that he might be purified of the experience. As a result of this purification, many new kami were born. Among these was Amaterasu. Assigning an Emperor Amaterasu was the sun goddess, and she was also tasked with dominion over the land; a giver of life. Amaterasu had many children and grandchildren, and one day came to the realization that the great nation of Japan should be ruled by an emperor. She cast forth one grandchild by the name of Ninigi, whose son - Amaterasu's great grandson - would be Jimmu Tenno, the first emperor of Japan. Henceforth, Jimmu's bloodline would be considered that of divinity and his family would forever rule over the land. The Eight Kami Jimmu Tenno would, over time, be diluted and detached from his kami essence as a result of his exposure to humanity and his indulgence in worldly pleasures. Jimmu would remain forever ignorant of the eight other kami sent forth by his great grandmother, Amaterasu, and their divine bloodlines which were to be tasked with dominion over eight elements of the world. These kami were created by Amaterasu's hand from worldly material; they would assume a human-like form and live in relative solitude, their descendants taking surnames after the names given to them by Amaterasu herself: Seikatsu, created from a stream of sand allowed to slip through Amaterasu's fingers; he and his lineage are charged with overseeing the continuity of daily life; the regular cycles of sun and moon (Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi), the coming and going of seasons, and new life and new death. @ Howaitora, created with frozen snow from the peak of the highest mountain; he and his lineage are charged with guarding all things at a high altitude; the climbing of steep, icy mountains made a very perilous endeavor, and the clouds always kept pure and high - far from the grasp of humanity. @Stylishninja Enzan, created from the most beautiful flower in the world which was found and plucked by Amaterasu; he and his lineage responsible for maintaining the balance and harmony of the natural world, ensuring that all things in nature interact peacefully and remain beautiful. @Crosswise Shousetsu, created with an urn of ocean water which Amaterasu foolishly took from her brother, Susanoo; intended to rule over the cycle of evaporation and condensation of water. However, Susanoo being a kami of storms and destruction, the water which was used to create Shousetsu was of a dangerous nature. This kami forsook his original task and defeated Konpira - the kami of safety at sea - in combat; he and his lineage now hold dominion over the oceans, permitting safe travel and inflicting turmoil at their discretion. @Sipher Tetsumei, created from a fragment of Ninigi's broken mirror; he and his lineage are tasked with the structuring and distribution of wisdom with relation to universal truth and rationality, allowing enlightenment to those deemed worthy and withholding it from those who are not. @Mr.Yagura Donsu, created from the dreams stolen from other kami; he and his lineage maintain the boundary between reality and the world of dreams, blocking off from the minds of humans and other kami those which are dangerous or forbidden, and permitting them only dreams which the Donsu deem important. @Gary Oak Raishuu, created from the blood of Amaterasu herself, which she spilled during her time of solitude and depression; he and his lineage are charged with dominion over all human conflicts; the Raishuu determine the outcome of wars, and are responsible for inflicting and relieving human suffering. @Undo Minamiyori, created from the deep, black roots of a weeping pagoda tree; he and his lineage are charged with dominion over thick forested areas as well as the darkness and shadow which inhabit them. All things which happen in concealment are attentively presided over by the Minamiyori. @Southend_boi

That's totally your choice! It's not unfair. Nobody is obliged to risk themselves to perma death. It's just not as fun as you don't. You can't hold high ranks or titles without risk - is my ideal system. But if you'd like to be a nobody, sure you can be a powerful nobody without risks like Master Chen. Naruto is a powerful Genin killing Kage level enemies on a daily basis. Rank will never determine your power level in Nin Online

There is far too much "big brothering" going on in regards to GMs and decisions kages make. If a Kage isn't allowed to make their decisions quickly without being blocked by a GM, then that Kage is not the undisputed leader of their village, the person cockblocking him is. Isn't the whole point of a Coup d'état to get rid of a Kage that the village doesn't want? Why would a Kage need to be banned or forcibly removed at all? If the village isn't willing to revolt, then they deserve to be taken advantage of. Any intelligent leader knows that they are nothing without something to lead. I'm pretty sure that a Kage being assassinated does not prevent/prolong wars, it does the complete opposite. Enemy village has no leader and is in disarray, time to take advantage of that. Not everyone who plays a video game participates in the forum, a 10 post requirement to do the chuunin exam promotes mindless spam just to be able to enter the exam. It also means more work for GMs to verify post count, which will eventually feel like a second job to them. Assuming only one kage needs to be in attendance to a chuunin exam, what's to stop them from choosing only the genin from their village to be promoted?

Well, I'm not really good at it, but I like doing my own signatures... here's what I've done as a rehearsal today Gonna try and do something better soon Other works of mine include:

wow... so much politics is discussed and involved here. I'm not sure i like it )))) but personally, i would like to see how it all works in-game before making any conclusions... i doubt you can foresee everything on a forum thread (some of you guys are just causing drama right now) I like the idea of an NPC GM, he would surely be un-biased... but i'm assuming that would be extremely hard, if not impossible, to code One question... in the anime/manga, chuunin exam preliminaries were held only because too many passed the forest of death... in case there are few who do, then you should proceed straight to the finals i guess I like the permadeath and Kin idea... i just hope it won't be too slow to level-up... and i also think that the death boost shouldn't be too small and will there be a Kage election in this early Alpha release? Looking good and keep it up!

Stop complaining about a system that you haven't even experienced 1st hand yet. How do you know if it works or not yet, this is not a Byond game, these are not those butt-hurt Byond Gms, and Rory and his staff aren't Byond Game Owners. Experience the system 1st, then you can bitch about it all day long if you want, withhold judgment until then.

Ah, but you see that authority was given by the players themselves(Hopefully, at least). So if you think about it, it's the players hindering their OWN experience because of a dumb decision or failure to act. Which they would then have to rectify. I understand where you're coming from, really, but the fun and authenticity that can come out of unchecked Kages far outweighs the negatives. Remember, Naruto isn't a world of laughs and giggles, serious shit happens; and if a player doesn't like the abuse, he can grow a pair and set up a Coup d'état, or step the fuck down and shut up. Who's to say the GM's won't abuse their power? If they do, we then have a powerful entity that we did not put into power and have no fun way of removing him from that position. Unless you call "he said, she said" topics and backhanded posts on the forum fun.

That doesn't make it a good idea.

Hey everyone, I've decided to give some information on the system I have planned for things like the Chunin Exams. This is not a entirely new concept as I've heard of things like this in other MMORPGs. This system is called Roleplay Events (RPE) The system can be compared to a game of Dungeons & Dragons, where players will play out their character through the actual game rules, while it is being watched over, moderated and led by a Game Master. More information regarding RPE The player must have a Ninja Biography on the forum to qualify for a RPE. Examples of RPE are the Chunin Exams and Diplomacy by the Kage. Permanent death takes place during RPE. About Game Masters There are 2 kinds of Game Masters, which are the Head GM and Village GM aka. Village Elders. Head GM In charge of events and decisions being made that affects the game on a global scale, such as wars & diplomacy. A head GM will only be necessary once we have released Suna. Village GM In charge of internal affairs (of one village) such as giving ranks. He/she is answerable to the Head GM. About Kages Kages are players who appointed by leaders by the other players through elections. They are in charge of making small and large village decisions. Elections will be held once every 2 months or if a Kage has permadied. The players running for the election will need to be a player who is powerful and well respected by his fellow village ninjas. There will be some minimum requirements before a player can vote for a Kage, these are being registered atleast 2 weeks before the election date, and they have to be at least a level 10 Genin in-game. Kages will have the ability to change their village member's ranks & organization, but he is still a normal player. He is a figurehead, it is a role which comes with plenty of respect but is riddled by risks of permadeath. Kages which abuse power (their actions will be logged for Village GM to look through) will be removed, and banned. They may start a war with any village, but through the discretion of Village GM, who will stop any unreasonable decisions. Permadeath & Permadying Permadeath in Nin Online is not exactly the end for your character. Imagine it as a end for your indentity, but not your character. These permadeath cases will be rare, and only high ranking players will be at a very high risk for this. The system will effective kill your identity, your character will from then on be his own Kin, his son or daughter or a brother etc. as such name change will be required. His items will be passed down as well. As the perma dead characters die, their Kin becomes more willful, and embodies his dreams. Though the characters which permadie will be reset to level 1, they with slightly higher starting stats than a normal character depending on how powerful he used to be, characters who have perma died multiple times will hence be slightly more powerful. To make friendly diplomatic decisions such as forming alliances or settling/ending wars, player Kages must decide decide on a meeting place - preferably & traditionally within one of the villages as a symbol of trust. There, they will discuss and come to a decision which will be executed by the Head GM. How to Start Kages must request a meeting to the Head GM, and then choose a time & date agreeable by both parties and the Head GM. Travelling The travelling/escorting phase of this RPE goes like this.. [*]As this is a dangerous journey to go alone, the Kage should preferably stay away from fighting for himself. He is to find escorts from his most powerful ninja to accompany him for this journey (maximum of 7) [*]Kages may go about this any way they like, without escorts, or even request assistance from other villages to escort them. [*]If players not involved from the village are being annoying, they may be kicked or banned by the GM. [*]If the travelling Kage is killed on the way to the diplomatic meeting, this will be witnessed by the GM who will then determine based on whether any foul play was involved. [*]If the death was fair and it was a planned ambush on the Kage, he will face permanent death. [*]Escorts will not be at risk of Permanent death, but they will be at risk of losing their rank if they fail to protect their Kage. [*]Other players may attempt to overthrow the Kage by force. Assassinations are bound to be attempted. [*]Attempting to kill the Kage so that wars will be prolonged is also an option. [*]The Kages may choose to keep the details of the meeting secret or low profile or change the date and time if they feel it is suddenly too risky. Meeting phase The location chosen as the meeting place can be private. Thus, mostly no external threats will happen from this point on, unless it is badly guarded or planned. Decisions for the diplomacy must take place within the game chat, and both villages should have somebody documented what is said during the meeting. Once the meeting is over, and the decisions are made, Village GM and Head GM will make the necessary changes to alliances, wars, diplomacy. Players should report or announce the news/decisions on the forum. Eventually, there may be individuals or groups of players who want to be "Reporters" and run their own news section. I am all for this! The Kage may allow or forbid reporters at the meeting, and they are not to speak or ask questions unless permission is granted. Ending After decisions have been made and meeting has been called to an end by both Kages. The RPE is over and the Kages are no longer at risk of permadeath. Chunin Exams is a very important and core RPE. It will have a lot of permadeath risks. But at the discretion of the Head GM, if the Chunin Exams has been held poorly, he may decide to call the whole event off. How often is there a Chunin Exam? The Chunin exam will be held once or twice a month by the Kage and Village GMs. How to participate in the Exam? First, you will need to form a team of 3. You must register for the Chunin Exam on the forum, and your account must have made a minimum of 10 posts. Your character must at least be a level 20 Genin to join the exam. You will need to have a supervising Jounin during the event, unless one of the team members is above level 50. If one member of this team is not present on the day of the exam, a replacement is allowed. Registration fee of 10,000 Ryo per ninja in the team is required. The fee should be sponsored by the Jounin supervisor, or can be paid by the Genins themselves. Registration for the Exams will take place 1 week before the actual exam, and the teams applying should work together and practice fighting as a team before taking place in the exam! The exams consist of... Written Test 10 Minutes Not much to explain for this. Forest of Death 20 Minutes (No Permadeath, but Eliminations) Each team will be given a Heaven Scroll or Earth Scroll item which will drop when the player faints. Before they die, they may choose to simply run or surrender the item to the other team. Players may go about this however they like. Teams which fail this round, will be eliminated, hence half of the players or more will not make it past this stage. Once you have both scrolls, you must proceed to the finish point. If a team loses both their scrolls, they may still attempt to ambush other teams to get back the scrolls they need. Medical Ninja will be very important in this round. Preliminaries - 20min - 1hr Finals - 10 - 30min Both the Preliminaries and Finals will be held in different arenas. However, they will happen very similarly. Two ninjas will be pit against each other, they must fight until one surrenders or faints. High level Medical ninja must heal the player if he has fainted. If the player is not healed, he will perma dead. Only the 2 ninjas and the medical ninja will be allowed into the arena. Many possibilities are are available. Obstructing the player who has fainted from being healed is allowed within RPE. However, the player would be subjected to being banished from his village and/or be killed himself during the event. How does the player become a Chunin after the exam? All players who make it to the finals may be promoted. However, the Kage must make the final decision. He may choose any player that he would like to promote, and may hold back any player as well.

Alrighty, to end on what Rory has already answered numerous times, this is the ideal method of the RPE system. Everyone I suggest you just wait and see how it works than start going against it from how you're reading it. The system can still be improved or tinkered with accordingly. Gotta try it out first and see how it goes

@Noble Really? are you role playing on the forum, or do you actually believe you're nobility? A calculator coded in VB, DM, C#, C++, Python, HTML, Java, and even assembly is still a calculator. The people that visit this forum, any other forum, any other website, are still just people, the same people that go to BYOND as well. I can't even take you seriously, hah.

True, let us have afaith in Rory and his ability to judge character, it'll all be alright.

I didn't think your idea was all that bad, I just thought it'd be too difficult to apply to a game (hence why I didn't post until now). But with all suggestions, not everyone will agree, which is why it's important not to get defensive or backlash when people are offering constructive criticism and feedback. Your idea did sound good. But your attitude doesn't, so you should try to be a little more open minded to hearing criticism ... or just avoid posting your ideas publicly. Just a suggestion.

What about this? Abusing is fine to the extent that you can be corrupted through ingame means like ingame currency bribes. But the GM is still present to prevent irl money bribes and cases like this.

By then damage would have been done. New players would have quit. People would get unhappy, and GOA will repeat itself. How do we justify people being higher ranked than others because they are friends with Hokazekage IRL? New players would just quit upon hearing such a thing. Maybe one of the reason why GOA is dead.

As strange as it may sound, we WANT the douchebaggery and the promoting of toxic behavior. It will give us more of a reason to assassinate the asshole, it gives us more numbers so that these Coups actually work instead of it being 3 guys who don't like how the Kage uses lol in capitol letters.

Urgh. So much tl;dr posts. I read briefly, it seems you guys still don't understand the system well enough, and are still comparing the game and it's staff to the 13 year olds running BYOND games. If you haven't noticed, this isn't BYOND. You will not face corruption from the staff themselves. We are here to provide a fun gameplay. About the game being a purely PvP game, this has never been said. The game is open to people who would like to play the game for only the PvP elements. You can level, you can get to max level, learn every jutsu without being a Kage, so if its not your thing to participate in RPE, it is your choice. Permadeaths do not make you lose your gear. Permadeaths only happen to people who want to gain ranks above Genin. Permadeaths only give a minor stat boost like 1 point to each stat. People will not farm permadeaths because the difference in power is so minor. To farm permadeaths you would need to constantly be joining RPE which aren't as frequent as you imagine. To die permadeaths in an event could actually be a challenge since medical ninja will be on site to heal you whether you like it or not. GMs will not stop playings from making decisions, or being corrupted. They will stop Kages from being douchebags and/or promoting toxic behavior. I might increase the time a Kage serves. This way it would be more important for people to kill Kages they dislike during a RPE. A mistake here is assuming that leveling in Nin Online will be boring like a BYOND game. We have an actual storyline and unique missions. Compare Nin Online to an actual MMO, with actual content to fill up 100 levels.

I will make one soon

Excuse the GOA community, they're not used to RP games and having good GMs. Anyways I assume GMs would be admins and devs on the forums. Now something I just thought up will our accounts have a limit on how many characters can be associated with them? Also would everyone be able to see the Ninja Biographies?

I just want to start off by saying that you should keep the forum & the game two seperate things. I don't want to have to worry about my forum account while I'm on the game. If you could, explain why I need a biography to qualify for RPE? I approve of Head Game Masters. They don't sound like a bad idea to help diplomacy between villages. It would be like an 'in-between Kage'. The way Rory explained it, it's a good idea. As for Village Game Masters, I'll be straight-forward, I think it's rather silly. The definition of the description given here for Village GM is 'Kage'. Why do we need a 2nd Kage? The way we're going about Kages being chosen through election is a good thing (my own opinion). I like being able to choose my own Kage because I'll vote for someone I know is going to do a good job & not want to ruin my experience playing the game. If I make a bad choice, I still have the option to leave the village, not a big deal. What I don't like is that I have to vote (practically mandatory) everyone 2 months for either the same or a new Kage if I want to assure that I keep the same Kage in place. Even though my chances of being a Kage are greater for having an election every 2 months, I don't think time serving as Kage for 2 months is good enough if the election is every 2 months. Sure I think it's great that we get to vote for our Kage but I think that this system is confusing the Naruto-world with democracy. Being a Kage isn't a democracy, therefore we shouldn't have elections based on time. But we should be able to choose our Kages through voting whenever a new Kage is being chosen. Ya feel? Permadeath? I really hate the idea of permadeath entirely when it comes to; losing ranks, posessions, names, whatever else. If being a Kage means that I'm going to be prone to losing my level & my character identity, why bother being a Kage? I'd rather be a level 100 genin and take no risk of losing anything. This is a PVP game, it should stay as a PVP game not a Role-Playing game. With PVP comes tons of deaths, I'd be willing to die as a Kage, so long as I'm not losing my rank just because of a silly permadeath system. Specially if I got my rank yesterday. If there is ever a Kage that abuses their power, they shouldn't be banned for it. Why not? They were chosen by their village members. The villages should face the consequences if they're to ever choose a bad Kage. A player isn't going to get voted Kage simply because they seem nice. They get chosen from respect & all. Also, banning players seems a bit much, just remove their rank & forbid him from ever being Kage with that identity again. I'll start off here by saying this is a very...flawed-system. I can see players going around using the permadeath system to make their characters insanely strong & not in a good way. Even if we have a maximum amount of stats that we could have no matter how many times we use permadeath, I can see players permadeathing until they max out all of their stats so that it doesn't matter if they use a sword or straight ninjutsu or their bare hands. On another note, players who actually want to get somewhere, probably won't get far anyways because who wants to be a Kage if they're going to eventually die in a PVP game over & over again? Sure they don't lose their character but their level is still worth a lot. Like I've said before, I'd rather stay a level 100 Genin as long as I'm not at risk of losing my level. Because I don't plan on reaching level 100 again. Not enough time on my hands. I'm fine with the "How to Start", it's the traveling that bothers me. I don't see how you can maximize how many people travel with the Kage. I can see the entire village following the Kage, using the target system, using concealing skills, etc. I don't see the Kage leaving the village unnoticed. I could also see a Kage inviting 8+ people to escort him just because he can. I'm not being a rebel, I just don't see how you could possibly limit who the Kage brings. Ban him? Too much. Chuunin sound straight ridiculous, not trying to bash, just being straight-forward. A Chuunin Exam is fine requiring a team of 3 Genin per squad but somethings after that seems way too much. Forum posts? You're willing to go on 10 posts per player every 1 or 2 times a month? I would estimate like 2k posts every month at least on spamming stuff for register on the forum. The level is..fine I guess. I can see some reasoning behind this. Registration fee? I'd rather stay Genin, thanks. Sorry Rory, I know you're trying to make the game really fun & all but I just don't like some of your ideas for majority of this thread.

No. There is a striker and a referee. The referee doesn't place his leg on the ball, he just calls foul play. The Kage role is a player role, while GM is a staff role. GM position will not be obtainable by playing the game.

it was a tough road but hey, its what shapes us into the strongest versions of ourselves. You're almost there buddy into completing this game, and letting the community enjoy your work.. Now I am ready to read the success story

The GM is not there to cockblock. He's there to ensure people who play the game are not being bullied. There is a certain amount of annoying and/or abusive behavior a player can tolerate before being too pissed off to play. The GM will not rule over the Kage's decision to rank up certain people. He's there to stop Kages from doing stupid shit like down ranking everyone, or doing something childish like threatening people's ranks and demanding money from them. I mean it sounds funny, or sounds like fun for the one Kage, but it ruins game play for others. Chunnin Exams which are combined will of course not only need 1 Kage. The other Kages would have to be involved. However, in the event of there not being any allies, the Chunnin exams will be kept in house.

True I enjoy the fact that I can outrun someone cause I've trained my stamina longer than them. Can even make like a relay or marathon running event, seems like it would be cool.

To make friendly diplomatic decisions such as forming alliances or settling/ending wars, player Kages must decide decide on a meeting place - preferably & traditionally within one of the villages as a symbol of trust. There, they will discuss and come to a decision which will be executed by the Head GM. How to Start Kages must request a meeting to the Head GM, and then choose a time & date agreeable by both parties and the Head GM. ---------------- I don't really like how GMs are in control of allowing any orders when thats the kages position to do it anyway, maybe the kage wants to secretly ambush the other guy but is pretending to ally with them? It will be more village involved without the permissions of mods.

of course us Uchiha have to stick together and thanks to everyone else for the warm welcome

this made me laugh xD yeah i know, i must be very tired

Technically, only if you failed, people would know. Definitely, a failed attempt at that, and the Kage would have a reason to banish you for sure. I would like for there to be a darker way to obtain the title. Like killing him and impersonating him :0

Thats the best name I can think of. Death sounds too light. Also, the only incentive I can think is players generally having a good time, roleplaying as the "sensei" will be fun. Those few Jounins are fine, but why would his team respect him then? For the early Chunin Exams, I plan to make it free, and not require a supervising Jounin. These exams will take place in the coming months. The stat boost will scale based on what level and stats the player had before he died. Being able to die 10 times is already a great achievement, let alone being at max level to die multiple time. You have to have a legit reason to die, but I'll consider this! Seems like a idea. No, you need to be a level 10 Genin to vote for the Kage. There is an option like that. It's called not participating in the events. You can still play, but you'll be an eternal Genin. 1. I'll think about how I can make it more fair. But mostly everyone who gets into finals should get promoted. 2. Its supposed to feel more like a bad thing than a good one, because the stat boost is going to be very minor. It's just an incentive for people not to feel shitty when it happens. For people who don't have time to train their character, then it's only natural they are weaker.

I kind of agree with this. But on the other hand, people may want to die like 10 times before really starting to build their character, i hope this will be supervised and banned. Also, can there be a "permadeath" at a certain level? if you want to i mean... Say i'm a lvl85 Jounin, kinda bored (="old") and i want to start "as my kin" and play again from the beginning, will the GM take requests of "permadeath" then? Another thing : Kakashi Hatake's post - i had the same question... One last thing : awesome!! i'm really starting to twitch, i just gotta start playing this soon!!! waiting 2 more weeks will be pure torture (spank me ) Edit : You need minimum lvl10 genin to be hokage and minimum lvl20 genin to be chunin? :wacko:

I just finished drawing this. Somebody remember him ? Mikey Reborn instead of Bardock i drew you Amidamaru

I think transplants would be fine if balanced out right, should be like a 1% chance to get an eye when killing a uchiha or hyuuga, but of course it would be harder for you to use so at times its better to just not use it. And clans going village to village doesn't sound bad to me :unsure:

If the kage accepts a missing nin who could betray the village and steal theyre secret scrolls then why not let it be possible. Cause he can join then just kill all your genins or kill your kage so it should be a human decision in the game to allow others to join who deserted theyre village.
