Atman, nobody is asking you to be loose with the way you run things. I was just upset that you seemed to be immediately playing the part of a dictator or something instead of giving me the chance to fix things myself. Sorry if I got on your nerves before. I seriously didn't know what to expect would be acceptable for how many powers, so I just went with what I knew from the YCM wars. I guess that was a mistake.

Anyway, could you please give me a chance to fix my app? If you still see something wrong with it, then okay, I'll take out whatever, but could you at least give me a chance to fix this before completely shutting me out? Please?

Sorry Nastasia . . . name was so close to an old friend I typoed it without noticing ^^; I'll just call you Nasta from now on, if it's alright with you.

Atman, thank you *gives polite bow*

I know what you mean by being loose in accepting in RP, only to have it become boring and fail . . . but have a little faith in your co-host that he knows what he is doing. There isn't anything wrong being tough in accepting people, but being analy retentive just makes it seem like you don't want anyone in. Tough when need-be, like what I had just done, but loose enough to enjoy actually running this thing ^^

But what could ever go wrong with satire?

Well the thing is . . . most people see it as an insult if you are not stating you're doing it for fun. Think of it like this . . . you work on something for your family, say a family album, very hard and incredibly long. You show it too them and they began insulting it, making fun of it, and repeating how bad certain things are and how bad a job you did . . . but it's alright because they're just kidding!

Yeah just because it's "all fun and games" for one person doens't mean to other is going to see it quite as fun

[b]I see.

Okay, so I'll leave Shadow's app up to you.[/b]

[b]Yea, I get it. Not as fun saying 'just kidding', but fine. :/[/b]

If you want, Pika, you can tell her about the mod's goings on, or should I?[/quote]
The less work for me, the better. *shrug*

Apparently the mods and YCMaker are out to destroy YCM for no apparent reason (I literally can't think of one, and the mods are being accused of it all the time, or maybe it's just my character). Apparently a bomb went off and that started an earthquake, except Six Shot found a not destroyed bomb, so I have no idea what's going on because this plot makes no sense to me.

As for my character, she may be good or she may be evil, but she's a master of two-face-edness and lying. PM me if you want details on my subplot or w/e.

*facepalm*

Atman you should've told me that BEFORE I posted . . .

and Pika you could always shine whenever 83 If the plot is confusing confront another "Mod" and they'd fill you in . . .
[/quote]
Oh, no, I knew you posted. Your current post with Lora trying to get the others out is fine.

I'll try to post in IC tonight, but it'll probably be tomorrow.

Done reviewing:

[spoiler=Application, Shadow Zero- EDIT #I of III]
[size=5]Shadow Zero[/size]
AKA: Shadow
AGE: 22
APPEARANCE: Six feet tall with short blonde hair and always wearing sunglasses. He always has a sword on hand and tends to wear either red or black, or a combination there of.

[b]Okay so he has a sword on hand . . . always is debateable though . . . Oh look! SPOILER 8D[/b]

pic --Click to View--

[b]*facepalm* I get the feeling you like Homestruck too? Well no points taken off for appeareance perferances[/b]

POWERS/ABILITIES:
[b]YIKES! How about a list next time instead of this. A 1, 2, 3, 4 would be VERY appreciated 8 |[/b]

Shadow uses battle chips and battle cards with varying effects and types of attacks. He is also able to combine specific battle chips/cards to invoke something called a Program Advance, or P.A. for short, in which the three or more chips/cards merge into one chip/card more powerful then any normal standard class battle chip/card.
[b]Yeah still looks like you're keeping to the Megaman roots here . . .
Instead of giving us an indeterminante amount of chips/cards [lolyugioh within YCM, can you believe it XD ] how about filling this out and staying with them?
3 DEF chips
2 ATK chips
3 OTHER chips
You DO have more than this so it sounds reasonable, m'kay? Don't want you just pulling a 'Get out of loosing fight for free' battle chip of something if you get my drift XD[/b]
Shadow is able to use various types of energy.
[b]Various types of energy . . . various types of energy . . . various how? Are we just talking ONE type of energy, but at different wave lengths for different effects? OR many energy types all on the same wavelength?

I am confused 8 / Please state specifically what type of energy you can use and what for. If you ACTUALLY mean energy blasts, just say so[/b]
Finally, Shadow has the ability to transform into various forms, although this is somewhat limited in what he is able to achieve and focuses on a fixed set of transformations that he has had during his time on YCM.
[b]There is that WORD again, 'various' 8 |
And see, later in the same sentance you contradict yourself! Various, but limited? Which is it I do not even-
I'll read this as, "I can transform my appearance but not my abilities, yet only when I am focused . . . even though the ammount of transformations I know is small
[/b]

WEAPONS: [b]Again . . . a list would be very thoughtful[/b]
An ancient artifact in the form of a sword composed of many hundreds of small and unbreakable metal fragments used in tandem with energy to take various forms.
[b]You already change your appearance, so now the sword can too? uh-hu . . . not going to happen B | Unbreakable too makes this worse. A sword that can go from sword to larger sword would work . . . but various, there is that WORD again, forms and can't be broken isn't right. Remove or restrict ASAP[/b]
A biomechanical armor that has merged with him on a sub molecular level and has become a sub set of transformations used in battle that revolve around modified forms of the machine emperors, the separate pieces of which can also be controlled separate from his body as needed.
[b]ANOTHER set of transformations?! Okay no B | Just no . . . sorry Shadow but there is no sense in having this here, you can already change your appearance with your abilities, so why even HAVE this? Remove[/b]
An Item called the Sylladex of which is able to captchalogue items into cards for easy transportation purposes. The items currently within are as follows.
[b]A capta-what? *looks at explanatory note* Ooooo~h . . . yeah not going to happen either B | Shadow I know the old saying, "Always be prepared" is true . . . but this is going overboard.

You have the Battle Chips already, and these things do pretty much the same thing, so why just add onto it with these capt-a-thingies? You have to pick one or the other and, personally, I think the Battle Chips'd be better for you. REMOVE[/b]


Shadow Cannon: A gauntlet able to absorb attacks and throw them back at their opponents and fire off energy attacks of its own.
[b]LOL Mirror Force in a cannon 8D There has to be a limit to everything so I'd give you this as an actual weapon . . . but if you GM with this I'll remove it instantly[/b]
Alchemiter: an item that can make more of an item that has been captchlogued into a captchalogue card, or even used to take two or more items to form a completely new item.
Captchalogue card: A captchalogue card within a captchalogue card that can be used with the alchemiter to make more captchalogue cards as needed.
Note: There are currently seven empty captchalogue cards on Shadows person.
[b]These above deal with the capt-a-thingies, which I suggested to remove, so I wont go over them[/b]

explanatory notes:
Alcehmiter: A machine that is seen as more magical then scientific and is able to create anything you want, as long as that something is in a captchalogue card and you have the Grist for it.
Grist: a substance that any living thing exudes upon dying. Without it, Alchemizing is impossible.
Battle Chips/Cards: these have weapons and other abilities hidden within them. They are NOT yugioh cards, and if any further explanation is needed, then please look them up (as well as a list of them if you so desire) on wikipedia, as a thorough explanation would take far too long.
Captchalogue cards: These are for holding items and are also NOT yugioh cards. Shadow Zero only has a set amount of them at the moment, but has one of his captchalogue cards inside of another one in case he needs to make more.
[b]Again with the capt-a-thingie . . .[/b]

BIO:
[b]Storyu time *sits down with stale popcorn 83[/b]
Shadow Zero is a long time veteran of YCM and has resided within its walls for many a moon.
[b]Because being on the sun would hurt like a b*tch XD

No seriously why does this sound like it needs to be voiced over by someone named "Runs like Drunk Chicken"? XDDDD[/b]
He started out trying to make cards being that he had a dream of his own sets that he wanted to create.
[b]I think that is why most people joined YCMaker initially . . . because you couldn't SAVE the d*mn f8cking cards <_<[/b]
Unfortunately, he was met with negative responses for his efforts, and quickly became one of the many who chose to leave not soon after joining, mostly due to being discouraged with his card attempts. After a considerable amount of time had passed, he returned with a newfound desire to make his creations, and make them known.
[b]The entire, "I didn't think this would be hard . . . but I can do it!" history . . . very normal on YCMaker to have n00bs dreams crushed 8 |[/b]
However, this did not last forever as card making took a back seat to canvassing several buildings that resided in this world. However, not long after having joined RP 820, calamity struck.
[b]Dun, dun . . . DUN!!!! *eerie lightning strike*[/b]

Shadow Zero, who up to this point had shown some promise, and seemed as though he would make a good rper, committed several crimes against RP 820.
[b]Not petty crimes mind you . . . Felonies! Which we shall not state to save space :D[/b]
For this he was thrown out, and he spent much of his time afterwards trying to change an to atone for what he had done. It would be a long road, and as he walked back towards what he once was, there would be those who would hate him almost more then any other.
[b]But luckily his good friend Jake the Sage helpped him with excellent coachi*shot*[/b]
Even those who were his friends would turn against him. Bonds were broken, and he was left all alone. Determined to make up for his past mistakes, Shadow Zero resolved to do everything he could to make up for the terrible things that he had done, and after a long and hard struggle, managed to begin to inch out from under the shadow of his own infamy.
[b]LOL shadow . . . icwhutudidthar 8D[/b]
He joined various clubs, such as Stardust Force, The OTW Club, and others. He even rejoined the reincarnation of Stardust Force, the Absolute Power Force. Eventually he was able to rejoin RP 820 as well, and has resided there since then, However, he had continued his rping even when not in RP 820, although he still visits other places as well. By now, however, he had gained a reputation of being constantly overpowered, and god modding as well.
[b]So he went from unbearable to being a nuisance sometimes . . . sounds about right. No offense, seriously[/b]
The god modding he does not do on purpose,
[b]Everyone says that[/b]
and to the inferences being overpowered, he merely ignores the comments thinking to himself that they just don’t like the fact that I have more power then they deem necessary.
[b]That is actually a bad trait that needs fixing *holds up wrench and wire cutters* I can fix it >83[/b]
Then there was the second war of YCM where several different factions fought, causing much destruction, after which things continued steadily declining. Shadow Zero decided to leave for a while and return to the Zero Account, his own personal realm that is half real world, half cyberspace, and has not been seen since, aside from the occasional visit to one of the buildings that he used to frequent. When not in the Zero Account or visiting various threads to which he had joined, he is traveling to other worlds, killing off criminals that deserve death and acquring as much Grist as he can, setting it aside for the day that it will be needed.
[b]So he hasn't been seen in a while and, instead of just relaxing or training, he is off being a serial killer against bad dudes? Way to 'kill tim*shot*

Again the grist and capt-a-thingie needs not be brought up or included[/b]


[size=5]CONCLUSION[/size]

Redo the app, changing what I suggested and probably working a bit more on the biography *throws away stale popcorn*
Once that is done please come back and let me review it again
[/spoiler]
[spoiler= Application, Oplamoon]
[size=5]Oplamoon[/size]
AKA: Opal
AGE: 23
APPEARANCE: Young woman in her early twenties with medium size and body. She has long brown hair that she likes turning into fancy styles and also enjoys make-up, shopping and the typical girls stuff. She usually wears clothing primarily inspired by the Regency era and turned into a modern way (it's a bit like the retro stuff Caitlin wears in PKMN D/P/Platinum).
[b]Shoot! Now I have to go look up images on DA since I haven't seen her X3[/b]
Almost all her outfits have at least one bow or ribbon on them.
[b]*Attempts not to imagine lolita fashion and fails* 8D[/b]
Her favourite colours are cream, a soft pink and jewel tones.
[b]Yay random info FTW!!![/b]
POWERS/ABILITIES: The ability to manipulate soundwaves. Sound influences everything, even silence holds the same connection to it as the colour black to white. An accumulation of countless sounds or the total absence of it? With her ability, she can distort or fake sounds in her surroundings, move around or escape by turning her footsteps completely noiseless and at best cause temporal muteness. However, due to her whimsical temper and since she doesn't have complete mastery over her powers, she's the type who ends up invoking the illusionary sound of an earthquake instead of a bee swarm.
[b]I heard sound manipulation and I was like >8O
But then I read on and I was like ^^
It is true sound manipulation can easily be lead to God Modding, but you seem to have it all thought out. I will put my faith in you that you wont God Mod this ability, but be warned if you do . . .
you, uh, have been warned? 8 /[/b]
WEAPONS: //
[b]Not even a flute or orcina?[/b]
BIO:
[b]*flicks movie screen on and watches*[/b]
Having moved in quite recently, this person nicknamed "Opal" has easily been caught up by the charm of a city where music seems to be the only big thing.
[b]Then why are you joining a Roleplay XDDD This ain't broadway no matter what Fusion's 'Trio of DEF' says X3[/b]
She enjoys singing and is the lead singer of the band "Kaleidoscope".
[b]Ooooh 8. If this is true then I demand a link! XD[/b]
Together they often participate at local contests and are big fans of the radio station in Music City. However they haven't been successful so far and continue their days as a simple local band. Aside from singing, she also enjoys electronic music in every way and likes mixing the latter. At the beginning of her "career", she tried to use her ability in order to manipulate her singing, but always failed because it turned out being either too powerful or not harmonizing with the rest of the band.
[b]Cheaters never prosper . . . *realizes what I'm saying* Thats bull! Thats how some of my friends graduated XD[/b]
Since then she hasn't tried cheating again, mainly because it doesn't fit to her sometimes brutally honest personality.
[b]Ah . . . darn concious whens again *shakes hand* I'll get that cricket one of these days~! X3[/b]
Few people know however that a few years ago, she used to work at the administration of General City, the place where simply everyone and everything comes together, and refered to herself as "Raven", but left due to being alone with the job and decided to leave the spot for someone else.
[b]Wait . . . so does this mean your a Mod or not in the roleplay (T_-)?[/b]
She still frequents the Clubs district a lot for socializing and promoting her music, but has generally been hesitant about the place.
[b]Who wouldn't?! I mean the rate clubs spontaniously combust into "flames" is OVER NINE THOU*shot*[/b]

If I'm accepted, woud you mind to put the accepted apps into the first post too? It's hard to keep track on who's there and who's doing what. Thanks.^^
[b]Atman'd have to do that, but I don't see why not[/b]

[size=5]CONCLUSION[/size]

I liked this app a good bit. The powers were nice and even, having a mixture of deadly potential and childish innocent mishaps. The biography also sounds as if it was written about the actual trials you went through in the eyes of a reporter/documentary . . .

Accepted.
[/spoiler]


Okay Atman, but are you sure you want to fight Frunk/Chaos Pudding knowing a single blow from JoshIcy nearly killed you . . . you know . . . again?

Pika, did you mean you want an update on what everyone is doing?

I don't know if she is or not 8 | Her app made it sound like she wasn't going to be playing on in the game so, you'd have to ask'er yourself.

Now *pulls up list* What any Gm or co-host should never be without! The Character Local List

Atman, NoBegining, Final Fantasy, Candyman, and Lora are all with Phantom Roxas trying to escape
Frunk and Chaos Pudding are there trying to kill them

Jake [me] and Christian Exodia are heading back to TCG after you left

PikaPerson01 [you] in a locked thread

Pichu is in C&O and had just experianced a "routine maitenance" explosion

Ok thanks^^

And whoops, pics:
http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Castle_Valet_Darach_and_Lady_Caitlin
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Caitlin

(Off-topic: And what, Lolita fashion fail?;__; I dress in Lolita style a lot IRL, ok some people end up looking like ageplay s***, that's true...but yeah it's kind of what you're thinking about.=D The Pokémon character wears princess style, funny that Bulbapedia wrote it too.x3)

Weapon: Ok can I add a fan that invokes/manipulates wind? Not a hurricane but breezes and stuff.

On modship, about how close are we supposed to stay to canon/real YCM characters? Yeah it's more or less my biography, minus the band stuff because I can't sing for s***. But if she's a mod, does that mean she's causing the earthquakes and trying to destroy the world with YCMaker and the mods?D: IDK I didn't have that in mind when I wrote down the app.

[s]As I said, the way she phrased her bio made me think she wasn't going to PLAY a Mod IN THE GAME- on the forum, oh yeah she's still a Mod.[/s]

EDIT:

Opal you can do either or . . .
The Mods can go WITH the idea to destory YCM or, like Phantom Roxas, try to fight back.

It's up to you 83

And yes you're supposed to be pretty "in character" for yourself but keep mind of the game boundaries. For example I am acting as if this is really happening to ME, not some character. It adds a little bit more when you think of it like that.
So if you're a Mod in the forum, your a Mod in the RP

*reads about not singing*

Awe TTuTT

*hugs*

But you at least wear lolita and that makes up for it XD
as for the fan, yeah take it

BIO: Justice feel asleep(Metal Gear referance) in December 2009. A year later he returned to bring justice to those who needed it on YCM. When he says justice, he means making them less troll-like. He is one of the few members thought to have actually rated cards on his personal opinion, instead of sayingg they suck because of one OCG error. He usually RPs for the sole fact that the rest of the forum is hostile torwards him for his pleasent nature.
