Uhh where should Tom be posting?

[Covert (Admin)]

Pavo- sorry guys, won't be posting much or at all today since my brother is graduating

[Covert (Admin)]

Sorry things have been quiet from me= i'll post tomorrow- had my brother and cousin graduating, then parties, then a date at the amusement park today. I'm exhausted

Ah look the first complete disconnect from my medic. Aayne's reaction to the creepy thing he found: Fear and panic.

Mine? This is freaking awesome

What in the world did I come across?

Gawd. Konchi is now the blind one. I guess that swim across the river took more out of her then she thought.

You know, if Randolf could actually read, he probably would have taken offence at that statement

Welcome back to the forums, Devlan! Glad to see you back

[lichlord]

What a time to be rolling bad, when fighting a horrible shadow creature.

[Covert (Admin)]

guess who's back back back again
/sorry about my constant absences/

[lichlord]

HA, YES. Burned! Take that creepy ghost thing!

Unless this goes through as well, which means nothing will affect it that I have, cause the only other attacks I got are Pound and Double slap on Uzdrowic.

Hey- how would you all feel about a weekly EXP drop for your Pokemon and a monthly level drop for Trainers)? Since this game goes pretty slow due to me and the set-up of the game, I was curious if that would help you all out and let it move a little faster.

[magnyrdelorn]

Perhaps instead of EXP out of nowhere, maybe just double all gained exp, and be more generous with character level gains due to story points? It might achieve the same effect, but be less immersion-breaking than what you're proposing?

You could imagine for instance, that a pokemon might reach the level it needs to evolve from just bonus granted xp, only to pop out of its ball and spontaneously evolve for no reason. That might be a little weird

[Covert (Admin)]

I generally only have Pokemon evolve after battles- you may be at the correct level- but it won't evolve until after the first battle it wins after reaching that level or evolve when it reaches that level after a battle.

If we were to do a "I know we don't play very quickly and I want to throw you a bone with a random effect" my preference would really be to have you make a list of maybe 3/4 of the known pokemon's first stages(removing the more powerful ones at your choosing) and maybe, say, once every two weeks, we catch a pokemon "behind the scenes." I imagine wild pokemon encounters, while exciting to the player, don't provide you as a DM much entertainment, because they're rarely plot-relevant encounters.

Perhaps something to consider?
