early updates! Oh my!

Hey guys! We have a ton of updates for you all today! They're soooo biiiig that we decided to do them early!

First off, the friend add/remove.

Weekly Friend Add/Remove
Please copy the following into the Admin Console.


Second! We would like to remind you guys to please not use the out of character community for non-game related updates. Please use the spam community, [livejournal.com profile] slowpoke_gif, for those!

Third! The Frequently Asked Questions and Battles 101 pages have been edited and updated! Battles 101 is now a little easier to understand, with a better explanation on how battling works and leveling. If there are any more questions, please ask below! As for the F.A.Q., the following questions were either added or updated:

But my character's not human...
What about my character's special talents?
My character has fragile health! Or they broke! Or they died in their canon! How can they live in Johto?
What kind of canons are accepted?
What about playing a Shopkeeper?

How many pokémon are there?
What's this I hear about evolution?
How many pokémon can I have?
Can we name/rename our pokémon?

What does a Trainer Card do?
What happens if I break my PokéGear?
So how do I make money in this place?
If I'm in Team Rocket against my will, can I just pretend I'm not with them?

What about Non-Player Characters (NPCs)?
How do you deal with drops and reapplying characters? What happens to their pokémon?
How do you get away with hiatuses?


In these updates, we have decided to repeal the Persona 3 Protagonist clause. Route will now allow both the Female and Male Protagonists in play at the same time. We have also decided to incorporate a Glitch Technique in order to help players coming in and out of hiatuses with their transition back into play. It's also got many other goodies! Please check it out! If you've got any other questions or comments, go right ahead and ask~!


Fourth! We have edited the moderators part on the main community. For now, only Okami, Stormy, and Kit™ are listed. This will change in the upcoming weeks, don't worry. Please be patient if things are a little slow. (Sorry so much!) We're burning on coffee and trying to be as quick as possible on keeping everything updated for you all. We'd like to express our sincerest apologies for letting things get a little delayed but we're working on fixing that as fast as we can!


ETA: [new] Fifth! The character limit has been moved to five! App more characters right now-- Quite a few people reached the limit so we decided to expand it just a bit more.

Six, actually! How is everyone doing today?
puzzling: (This tea is brilliant!)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-20 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man, yessss, character limit up for six~ And now we can app Male protagonists as well!

BRB APPING SHIT LOAD SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI CHARACTERS

But hey, I'm doing great over here! The news about the Layton and Phoenix Wright game really made me excited and happy more than ever. How about you guys? Thanks for all your hard work! <3

[identity profile] little-anchor.livejournal.com 2010-10-20 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
hahaha this game will surely become Shin Megami Layton: Professor 569386, won't it?

......./finishes this walkthrough of Persona 2 faster aaaagh

I'm glad! XD I'm doing good, and thank you~ Good news is always good to hear!
puzzling: (Would you like some help ma'am?)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-20 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. Just watch, we'll slowly take over every fandom out there. I'm looking at you next, Silent Hil...

fffff What are you doing with a walkthrough? GO PLAY THE ACTUAL GAME. Ah, but is it Innocent Sin or Eternal Punishment, may I ask? \o\

[identity profile] little-anchor.livejournal.com 2010-10-21 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
.../snickers Silent Megami Layton: Professor Hill 4. .________.

I can't afford any game systems and none of my friends will loan me one and I don't own the game.... so my friend who got me into it found a walkthrough for me since that's the only way I could figure it out! (She played Maya waaay back when I first met her.) It's Innocent Sin. A little hard to follow but I'm getting the overall gist of everything and I JUST REALLY WANT TO PLAY MICHELLE SOMEDAY!

...I need to figure out that whole "put playstation video game on computer" emulator thing... but then there's a 60% chance I won't get through it... like Ace Attorney 2 through... wherever they are now. /is a very horrible gamer
puzzling: (Would you like some help ma'am?)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-21 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
.../gets up and slowly claps beautiful baby just beautiful

Ahh! Innocent Sin is just amazing~ The ending is just baw-worthy. AND OH MY GOD IF YOU PLAY MICHELLE I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL APP LISA WHEREVER YOU GO I WILL DO THIS I'VE BEEN MEANING TO APP SOMEONE FROM PERSONA 2 AHHHHHHHHH--

Oh, I can help you with that! I managed to play Innocent Sin on my computer to the end of the game, so I can assist you~ <3 Did you download any emulators yet onto your computer?

/bows grandly

c adsijfkl OH MY GOD GINKO! *_* I WOULD DIE.

Oooh! That would be so awesome if you could! I've only got a DS emulator.
puzzling: (Aha)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-21 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
DUDE, I WAS ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT APPING MAYA HERE EARLIER, BUT FFFFF I WILL TOTALLY APP LISA FOR YOU. JUST BRING EIKICHI OVER ;_;

Alright then! The PSX emulator I use is called ePSXe. That one works great for running PS:IS! If you actually go onto Youtube and type it in, it should give you a tutorial to get it all set up! <3
dreamship: (happy go lucky)

[personal profile] dreamship 2010-10-22 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
*_* MAYA WOULD BE AWESOME TOO! I gotta beat it fiiiirst!

It took me a little but I got it all up and running! Thanks so much!
puzzling: (This tea is brilliant!)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-22 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh man, I told the mun of Teddie (Persona 4) and Remi (Professor Layton) that you might be apping Eikichi and she said she'll app Maya if you do. BEAT THAT GAME REAL FAST. YOU'LL GET A LISA AND MAYA IN YOUR HANDS FASTER THAN ANYTHING

Haha, I didn't do much, but I hope you'll enjoy the game! It is very different from the third and fourth game, and gameplay can be frustrating, but the stories and characters are wonderfully written. Although Persona 3 was my first, Persona 2 will always be my favorite. I hope you'll have fun playing the game! <333

[personal profile] dreamship 2010-10-22 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
........./dies

/DIES REAL FAST

Maybe I'll actually finish this one! I got up to Kanji's bathhouse in P4 (and then later played it with Yamamoto-mun and got to Rise's little love hotel place), and in P3 I got up to "LET'S RESCUE STUPID FUUKA FROM THE DAMN SCHOOL SHE'S REALLY USELESS" and... then no more PS2. XD In the walkthrough for P2, I got up to the blimp crashing... MAYBE I'LL FINISH IT!

...but I'm slow at these things since I suck at gaming, so please don't kill me if I take forever!
puzzling: (Default)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-22 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
xDD No worries! Persona 2 is long game and Innocent Sin is only the first half of it! Though you don't need to play the second half, Eternal Punishment, to fully get Eikchi's character. Michelle only appears in the second half for a total of about ten minutes, I am dead serious. But yeah, take your time with it! The game is a lot more fun if you don't rush everything~ A-And isn't the blimp crashing just the best thing ever? "HEY GUYS LET MAYA DRIVE THE BLIM-- OH SHIT I FORGOT SHE'S A HORRIBLE DRIVER AHHHHH--"

If you have any questions about the game, don't hesitate to ask me! I'll be more than glad to help you <33

[personal profile] dreamship 2010-10-23 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
XDDDD I decided to test-run it yesterday and it was pretty fun!

...and then I realized I don't know how to save. Does P2 have funky go-to save portal things like in the latter ones? Or is there some weird way to make the emulator do it? I couldn't figure it out! Ichi-sensei, teach me everything!
puzzling: (This tea is brilliant!)

[personal profile] puzzling 2010-10-23 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It is, isn't it? <3 The camera can get some used to though. God knows I was so confused on that.

Haha, learn well, my student! If you press the square button, whatever key you assigned it to, that should pull up the menu. Unlike Persona 3 and 4, you get to save whenever you want in P2! Just pull up that menu and go to save, then ta-da, you got it! If you ever want to save on the emulator, you have to press the "esc" button while playing, then go to the top where it says stuff like "file". From there, you could easily find "save state" in the second header thing. That should help you in boss battles if you don't wanna read through all the scenes before the battle. <333
