So a revamp, another one yes. Why you might ask? Well it’s quite simple, ADA needed a boost especially since we saw all the members flocking away to never been seen again. We lost our touch, we lost what we were about and we decided to get that back. We heard many people say that they missed the old ADA, how things were done before the revamp and how much fun it was playing back then. How it didn’t feel a requirement to post but just feel like posting when you were in the mood and do hilarious things.

So we decided to be bold, we decided to bring back as much as we could from the old ADA. Forum setups, names and foremost, the Species (http://www.midnight-shadows.org/showthread.php?t=3894). Yes you read it right we brought back the species. Old ones, new ones but they are back and ready for you to be used.

We even changed the rules (http://www.midnight-shadows.org/showthread.php?p=154342#post154342) so I suggest you read them through carefully and another thing that has changed are the promotion guidelines (http://www.midnight-shadows.org/showthread.php?p=152367#post152367). It sounds all very exciting doesn’t it?

What does this change mean for all of you? Well for one you need to pick new powers (http://www.midnight-shadows.org/showthread.php?t=3879) and a species of course. This time around it won’t be hard because with each promotion you activate one of your species power and you pick a Talisman with it. We even brought back another old acquaintance, The Dark Apothecary. Yes you have to start requesting your powers IC now and endure endless pain when receiving them *insert evil laugh*.

Anyways enough chatter for now, I suggest you lot go roam through the new and hopefully improved ADA and if you have any questions, remarks you can post them in here and we’ll answer them the best we can :D

Meeting is now open!

The scheme is so pretty! Everything looks pretty! :-p

This is so distracting. I should be writing a late paper, but I want to explore.

Yes Kail stop rubbing unless it's my shoulders you're rubbing (A)

And mister with the revamp here you owe me a bio!

*rubs Ellen's shoulders instead*

We need to finish out the story before I can give you a bio though.. Which means I should post in our VQ... soon...

Truth be told, I once failed a class thanks to ADA :-p so what's a paper, Nick! :-p

Vingt-Trois
05-07-2008, 12:24 AM
Hmmm... I'm not going to get an A anyway, and if I do the paper, I'll get a B instead of a C. :-p Maybe you're right. lol

Less bantery question: When we pick new species/breeds and our new scopes, do we go request the new scope in the Apothecary, too?

Constriction
05-07-2008, 12:25 AM
I love the new header, it is really dark and edgy. Good job to whoever made it. Not to mention I am loving this new ADA :elol: My attention is held *should be studying* I'm gonna fail with you guys!

The species / powers you do have already you just state in the Roster. No reapproval / regranting needed here.

Aod made the header. I readjusted the colours a little :-p But yeah, give the praise to Ares. (God, anyone else with me loving that returned username? (A))

Yes all requests go through the Apothecary :nod:

Great job Ares and Chrisse for the header then :-p

Question: I wasn't apart of the ADA when it had species, so let me make sure I have this right: We pick a specie, pick powers according to level, and talismen (according to level) as well? Does the rule before still apply where you can pick X amount of specie powers, but not any talismen? Or vice versa?

Thor
05-07-2008, 12:40 AM
No you activate your specie power with each level, so you have one specie power and one talisman with each promotion. So in your case you already have the first two specie powers and two talismans, when going to level 3 you need to pick a breed (since the species are divided in breeds as well) and you activate your level 3 power and then you pick an additional Talisman ;)

Iron Man

You don't pick powers, you get the powers of the species and you pick the talisman to complement it. The previous rule no longer applies. You get your species power at every level you make, and add a talisman to it. You have to take the species power. There is no way around it.

ETA: And look, this time El beat me :-p It's like deja vu with people beating me to the reply :-p

05-07-2008, 12:43 AM
Ah ok that makes everything a lot easier, thanks Ellen and Chrissie :D

Kissing Crimson
05-07-2008, 12:56 AM
Uhm...since we're redoing this, should we do a complete new bio when we change? And if we're at our level, just pick the new scope for that level?

Thor
05-07-2008, 12:59 AM
you can write a new bio if you want and you can pick a new scope if you want as well, if you're keeping some of the old powers as talismans you don't need to get them approved, the new ones yes :nod:

Iron Man
05-07-2008, 01:00 AM

If you feel you need to redo it completely, Jen, then you do that. If not you just keep the one you do have. Edits are needed though once you picked species and breed to reflect that choice in your bio set up.

Hush
05-07-2008, 01:00 AM
I have to say... brilliant!

Are we going to have an update thread with the new promotions and other news posted in it like we did previously? Or will it be announced in another fashion?

Should be very helpful for thoes of you who are trying to pick a new way of life. ;)

Everyone go and sign up! :D

AND everyone post in this meeting! Share your thoughts with us! All of you out there - I see you - and I want you to take part in the meeting. Let's call this a role call! ;)

Hush
05-07-2008, 01:17 AM
I've totally signed up. I've loved Psionics since I didn't have the ability to see their scopes. :D

You guys have inspired me to write an entirely new biography, and RP even more in the ADA. I love you girls/guys. :bounce:

smurf
05-07-2008, 01:32 AM
Yeahness.

Okay long time no type in the actual ADA.. And dude I have actually written a new Bio for Cailean, which means she can come back to life.... So totally excited to play again. :p

hehe..

Oh and the header is gorgeous, and Chrissie, I think its odd that Aodhan changed it back to Ares the day I started contimplating a new name. (6 years- one name.. it needs changed.)

On a side note. If I promise to send Cailean's bio in before tomorrow night. Can I sign up for the tourney.

Thor
05-07-2008, 01:40 AM
I don't see why you can't Kendra ;)

And concerning new bios. A first draft should be in with the Council by the time the tourny starts :nod: The final can be done afterwards :nod:

05-07-2008, 01:58 AM
Oh, it is so amazing to finally be able to post on this side in a time with species. Maybe now, ya'll can relive the good ol' days, and if I'm not too much of a burden, I can go along for the ride as if I was always here. :-p

ADA is what you make of it, Billy :-p

Solstice
05-07-2008, 02:00 AM
I felt the need to rewrite a bio also because my old one won't fit at all with any of the possible species I have in mind. :-p Which, by the way, I' glad you guys brought back! They were awesome back in the day. :D

So are we PMing you guys the bios and also sending them in through the RPG database? I haven't started yet but I will be shortly. :nod:

Iron Man
05-07-2008, 02:01 AM
RPG DB! Always the DB :nod:

Hush
05-07-2008, 02:01 AM
Okay, Violet's bio is in. It's so horribly vague. It'll go through at least another overhaul when the tournament is complete. I wanted to get her out there, though.

Iron Man
05-07-2008, 02:19 AM
You could have taken a few more days to ponder her. But still yay for putting her up! :D

SO looking forward to that tournie! :D

Hush
05-07-2008, 02:23 AM
Oh, Chrissie :-p I already had her partly written. I was going to change to her soon enough anyway.

I can't tell you how much I love that DB.

Solstice
05-07-2008, 03:12 AM
I'm still debating on like four species. :...: I think once I write up my bio I'll get an idea. :chin: I'm not so sure about my choice.. and yet I am. :( Lol.

The RPG DB is love. <3 :D

05-07-2008, 03:48 AM
Now this is so much more like the ADA I remember. :D

ETA:
Man, I can't already tell my poor level 1 butt is going to get crushed.

Bah! Bah, I say! :-p Level 1s can kick as much - if not more - butt than higher levels. They all rely on their cushy comfortable tried and true techniques. But us up and comers - forces us to be ingenious and inventive. (A)

Yeah, that's right. I'm eying Gabe and Izzy in the first round. ;)

Hush
05-07-2008, 03:50 AM
Oh, Kate, darling... I'm with you. :-p I've come to the conclusion that my constant restarting is based purely on the fact that it forces me to try new things.

Subversive Beauty
05-07-2008, 03:53 AM
I simply remember being a much better fighter at a Level 1/2 than I ever was at a 3/4. :shrug: Instead of pushing my limits to their maximum effectiveness, I just got used to what would be thrown at me and how to counter them. Once I got enough powers if got to be too easy in a way. :-p For a while I'd only fight 5/6/7's. :lmao:

Although now I'm just crazy/suicidal enough to take on 6/7's for the sheer fun of it. (A) Again, I'm eying you, Warlords. :hehe:

Tipsy Kitty
05-07-2008, 04:02 AM
Ohh yay for the revamp being up :D But it's so hard to pick a species! The scheme looks great though :D

When do the tourny sign-ups close?

Solstice
05-07-2008, 07:46 AM
Woot sent in the new bio! I really hope I did my research correctly for it. :pout:

Now for AI's we just state our AI in the Member Rosters thread when everything's ready?

05-07-2008, 11:33 AM
Ok what with all this species business?

All explained in the Power System (http://www.midnight-shadows.org/showthread.php?t=3924) thread. You pick one, add talismans to it and got your scope. And yes, you HAVE to pick a species. Not picking a species is no longer an option.

Very nice new look, guys! Congrats for finally managing to finish this in such a speedy manner. :-p And thanks for bringing the species back :D *hugs her Alchemist species and trots off to pick new powers*

Lovely scheme, too. It looks more brown-ish than reddish to me in this monitor, but me likes!

Love the new look, awesome work as always.

And look! SPECIES!! Oh the nostalgia! *huggles Water Warlock* I wish I could say I was tempted by the other species because some of them look really awesome, but I have to be a WW again! Does picking my old species make me boring ? :shrug:

Crawling Chaos
05-07-2008, 05:14 PM
I just realized I hadn't posted in here yet. I could have sworn I did last night after the revamp went live, but I guess I got too distracted by all of the new stuff. :shifty:

In any case, congrats to all involved in the revamp. It looks awesome. :D It's got that great old-school feel with a lot of fun new twists. The fact that Thread is a talisman now makes me very happy indeed. :shifty:

Also, I don't think picking your old species makes you boring, Christmas. It makes you nostalgic. :) I have to admit that I was sorely tempted to go for Chaos Demon again and I might yet still after the tournament. Who knows?

Sobriquet
05-07-2008, 06:05 PM
I love the revamp and I love that species are back :). I never got to try it out, as I was in FGB, but I really like the look of all of them. Took me longer to figure out what one I wanted than it actually did to write a three page bio xD

Ares
05-07-2008, 06:10 PM
Thanks to those of you who commented on the header. It was a labour of love... the usual for an ADA header. :-p

Also, congrats on all the Warlords for completing everything so nicely. It's a good thing to see species back and an old concept (the breeds idea was planned well before the merge but turned out scrapped in favour of the Sins) put into such great fruition. Great job guys!

Though gotta say, miss being a lvl7 -- now I actually have to stick to ONE species. :-p

Ramses
05-07-2008, 06:23 PM
Well, I love the species concept, Aodhy, it might bring the dead back from their hiding!

Altough, I had exactly the same powers of a Wind warlock, even when we had the Sins... hehe, seems im addicted to those specifically... now the warlock tittle is motivation enough to come back after finals... weeeee

Seems like the old days

Well, dear Kate, you know how it is with college when the semesters are coming to an end, but I can manage! However, this summer I will be going back to the summer internship in North Carolina State University, so, once again, I will be nearer to ya!

Oh come on, you know you want to! Lancers sound so much better now!

And we have some unfinished businesses with our unhappy couple!

:shifty: I think Rory would kill me in no uncertain terms if I gave up Maddox. :-p And Chrissie and Ellen too if I dumped her without giving her a chance. But then, that's what clones and story lines are for.

Or the possibility of two characters with a shared scope. *looks at the Warlords about that* Possible?

ETA: :$ I still hate that banner and it's nasty corpse guy in the middle. *shudder*

05-07-2008, 07:06 PM
Not everything looks sexy and beautiful in the underworld, my dear Kate.

Just wanted to point out that in the Species Breeds forum in the General Notes section, The part where it says "Ranges" repeats itself...

05-07-2008, 07:50 PM
I still have nightmares of easy bake ovens and Aodhan's desire to Kill Brietta with every talisman gained.

But it was definately a fun aspect of the world..

I hate picking species.. everytime it takes me a month to determine it.

Don't knock the Dark Apothecary. The Dark Apothecary was one of the most awesomely awesome things in the old school ADA. (A) The power-granting posts are usually hilarious beyond words. And I always found them incredibly hard to write. Granting a handful of talismans was usually an adventure filling a whole evening.

Oh and before I forget it. Since we will be sprinkling the meeting with a couple of announcements to get y'all used to checking meetings for news regularly again (:-p) here comes the first:


Looking Glass is now a level 2.



Congrats, Todd! (Y)

Hush
05-07-2008, 08:06 PM
Oh dang! Yay promotion! :woot: [/random] I do so love being promoted.

Now, let's go see if I can get this Dark Apothecary thing right... :bounce:

Iron Man
05-07-2008, 08:06 PM
AND! All powers you pick now for promotions granted before the one I just posted (so any levels you gained prior to Looking Glass's / Todd's promotion) do NOT go through the Apothecary. Let me repeat it,

if you had your level before Today 10:00pm GMT+2 you do not request them in the Apothecary, you already have them!


So basically Todd's the first to have to go through that procedure ;)

Ares
05-07-2008, 08:20 PM
Ah, the old DA posts.. they were fun to write when you only had to do 1 or 2, when you had a queue of 30 though.. got a bit overwhelming.

05-07-2008, 08:28 PM
They were always worth it tho! I remember when I got my TK talisman, I was crying with laughter when I read the post in the DA! *pokes Todd to post so we can see the reply*

Oh man, I loved posting for the DA. Although I never got more on than 3 people in queue. It was fun. :hehe: Good times, good times.

Congrats Todd. :D

Subversive Beauty
05-07-2008, 08:33 PM
The solution is to hire one or two (or three or four - depending on growth and promotion rates) to do the DA posts as they come in. Do a post every promotion or so. That way there's no backlog and you managerial people have one less thing to worry about. Just make sure the people you give the responsibility to are up the task in terms of reliability.

Why do I have the strange feeling I've said that before? :lmao:

Kate :-p you're such an ADA elite, representing the "old school". Wait, that makes me old school FGB...

I think I need to shower. I feel unclean... must scrub off the FGB...

Subversive Beauty
05-07-2008, 08:41 PM
*gets a hose to hose Todd off*

Elite my butt. I'm just excited to see that the good times we all used to have screwing off are being encouraged. In a way it's a kinder, gentler sort of ADA. (A)

If by kinder and gentler, I mean unrestrained IC chaos.

Hush

Unrestrained IC chaos you say? You speak such seductive words, dearest Kate...

The Principal of the Old School? (A)

Oh come on, Nick, if you really are who I remember, the FGB Guide back when I was still a trainee, I do remember you kicking my arse a couple of times... I remember no one did actually try to fight with ya guys, and it was so much better fighting you guys than same level people! Dying was worth it... and it is, if it is to a worthy opponent.

Is the same Nick, Jose. You know, the one you saved me from after I beat him around a little as a Level 1. Man, that was a good fight. As I remember it, I got in quite a few good hits until Ethan left poor Kaamie blind, deaf, dumb and bleeding to death in the crater he slammed her in.

Good times!

Random question, but drawing back a bit further in the meeting.

If you were already a level 1 you don't need to post for those new powers, even if they're different? Or if you choose different powers do you have to? Just a little mixed up there.

Sobriquet
05-08-2008, 09:17 AM
No, you don't need to request them again. As long as you posted them in the roster thread, you're good to go :) (at least, this is my understanding)

Are you kidding that was my swan song for Brietta v1 (Brietta v2 was in OTCT and Brietta v3 is in EC). I love that girl, and she went out swinging. I think I still have a copy of that on my personal comp. It was a great battle, and then I made it rain on the house as I left.

It was the fight that made me reget restarting and killing of Brietta. Good times.

Because I kinda want Jacques to get Telepathy (at L3, obviously :)) after I saw it in Kie's profile (sorry if I'm accidentally dropping you in it, Kie :$), but when I looked at the list; it was a pendant and not a talisman which let to my confusion.

Ha. Serves me right for updating the roster at like all times of the day and never at decent ones :-p No, I am afraid Pendants are a no-go for WWD. Talismans can be picked from the Talisman-list only ... Pendants are different kinds of powers. Hence calling it the "Talisman" list.

Kieran will also have to pick a new lv2 talisman.
