  1. this is an actual test post if you are seeing this you are on the new database wowie

  2. hi someone asked me for a video on storytelling. that was their mistake.

     

    1. Evi Crystal

      Evi Crystal

      I have also a problem with making stories or creating OC's, because last years I did some pretty huge mistakes, that got me into trouble due to my self absorbed and made lots of plain stuff with a shady community. For weeks, I recieved some shady comments on Tumblr, Devianart and Wattpad and had to delete my accounts. Now I made new accounts and try to not make the same mistakes.

       

      But it really hard to create something very new, if you have insecurities about that and being afraid of criticism. Well Wattpad is known for it's weird stuff and pretty messed up stories mostly.

       

      I started to make my OC, Selene and gave her into a new look, because it firstly didn't fit her personality, so I give more lively light. For fanfics, the only concern I have is the demonizing and banned because of mature themes (not to extrem, but I'm a fan of those, but people made it much worse in Wattpad). Or didn't have the time because of Real Life...

  3. cant even speak english that's how little time i have
  4. sorry i was trying to keep it a secret so it'd be a surprise anyway no i barely have time to make one fangame let alone too, save me ;~;
  5. yeah i use graphics gale, and like, i'm still actively aware that there's a bunch of different outline colors in GG, since i'm usually copy-pasting a bunch of stuff from other different tilesets but it's not necessarily worth fixing each and everything but then later i regret it so even if you're not upset i am primarily by the unavoidable state of entropy that exists simply due to the passage of time h
  6. you're valid and i'm so sorry for everything (although i would never want to actually use pure black since transparency eats that sometimes)
  7. hey, glad to see you're back at it! sorry for kind of immediately undercutting your new route with a surprise release. whoops. i've gone ahead and removed nature power from that venusaur; also guaranteed intimidate on torracat. frankly the missing ability in that fight looks like an oversight anyway. battle speed will also be the death of me.
  8. yeah so this was completely accidental. i have no idea how but somehow the multiple save slot system changed the way that information saves and fixed the glitch. it's really nice for something to get accidentally fixed rather than accidentally broken, for once. that said, i have no idea if this will negatively impact other parts of the game so please let me know if that turns out to be the case-- not that i'd know what to do with it offhand, but still...
  9. maybe the real lock was on the friendships we nominated along the way

  11. it is limited to what we said, since we are basically just ripping specific things out of e19 and shoving them backwards into e18. we were limited in what could be properly tested without a full cycle. it just might! and credit for the wonderful aurora veil goes to @VulpesDraconis ! this is not a proper list and will also contain ones with very minor imperceptible fixes, but it will give you a rough idea: https://prnt.sc/qfj9nt https://prnt.sc/qfja2x
  12. as a result of that last post, i also nominate godot for biggest grumpy
  13. the format itself is the same, and the descripts are carried over from last year's topics, but there are new and some changed categories. limiting number of wins is something we discussed briefly and might look at in the future, although based on last year there were just a few people who won three awards each, not counting the staff categories, so i don't think it's a huge issue. at the least, we didn't want to make a hasty decision on it so we are trying again as is once more and will consider a limit next year
  14. "epic" more like painful... anyway yeah the girafarig thing absolutely was that bug, and i think i noticed it with fern's switching as well too.... it hurts, but i'm just glad we found and fixed it regarding the ace thing, they used to not send in aces until last under any condition but as of e18 i think ??? we made it so that that is now a suggestion rather than a requirement for all battles that do not have a story-specific reason to hold the ace for last (i.e taka or zel defending a PULSE). so they're now discouraged from it, rather than forbidden. it is technically not optimal but i think in the average case it makes a more compelling conclusion to a battle if the final is their ace. as for having two aces, the AI already considers both an 'ace' and a 'second' and the second is also similarly discouraged from switching in earlier-- albeit less than the ace. that behaviour has been in place since we began our AI rework.
  15. i want everyone to know that, no matter how silly my site maintenance messages may be, the actual process contains nothing for me but pure, unbridled despair.

    not even the fun DR kind either.

      Don't give up Amethyst! There are more than 40k members on this forum who love what you do and are ready to support you till the end! I'm one of them! Reborn is more than a game to me. And there's something really positive that comes from the community too! This had to be said! You transformed the last two years of my existence and changed them into something more beautiful among all the other years I've experienced in my life! I wouldn't have been the same person as I am today if all your hard work wouldn't have existed! I'm glad to be a member of Reborn Evolved, and I'm glad to be still here two years after I registered on your website! You deserve great esteem and appreciation, you and all those who work by your side! ❤️

       

      Please, never change ❤️

      anyway like thank you and stuff

  16. Welcome to this year's Super Secret Santa! just in case you aren't familiar, Secret Santa is a holiday gig in which a group of people sign up and each one is randomly assigned one other person of the group to buy a present for! Whomever you get a gift from and give a gift to is random, but we'll make sure everyone gets something no matter what. In an attempt to minimize shipping headaches, there will be one group for NA and one for Europe. First and foremost, there are some stipulations on entering: You must be at least a Veteran on the forums (or better), to reduce the risk of dropped gifts. You must be from NA or Europe. Sorry to folks from other places :c You must be willing to spend real money on this. The suggested budget is around $25 or £/€20 You must be willing to share your address with us. Rest assured, it will only be given to the person who is sending you your gift. We will cap out at 10 people per region. If all that is okay and you are still interested, then read on! Sign ups will be open until 11/27! In order to sign up, please send me a message here on the forum with the following things: Your region A name that people can ship to A postal address to ship to A wish list of some things or options around the given price range that you would enjoy getting! After 11/27 everyone will be assigned their gift-givee, and it's off to the races with y'all. Just to be sure, I'll ask that everyone sends me a copy of their receipts / orders when shipping things off. If you've provided confirmation that you did send a gift and you somehow do not get a gift, we will personally get you one ourselves instead. No Santa left behind! We'd also like to suggest that folks get their gifts shipped out by 12/7! Then, at the Winter Party, everyone can share what things they got and talk about it! Please feel free to ask any questions in this thread, or privately to me. Otherwise, my DMs are open for sign-ups!
  17. Good question! Every year we create a separate discord server for the party. The link to the party server will be posted here once it's actually time to get going. Award voting will happen on the main server the day before, and the sign ups for Secret Santa will be in this forum
  18. Hello dear friends and children! Where is Episode 19? I don't know, keep playing Sword and Shield. Can't afford a Switch? That's what this holiday season is for. * this message approved by Nintendo of America And you know what else the holiday season is for? Parties! As many of you know but some do not, Reborn hosts two online social events every year, and this Winter's is coming up! Let's take a look at this year's schedule and events. The 2019 Winter Revel will take place on December 28th! Festivities will officially start at 7pm GMT+1 or 2pm EST, and will run for a full 12 hours! Anyone and everyone is welcome to pop in drop by or drop out as they please, so the least you can do is come say hi! Here's this year's schedule! Now as usual, let's talk about each event. Main Events- Members of the Year Awards Hot from their hit debut last year, they're back! Vote for your fellow community members in dozens of categories of awards for the year! Old favorites from last year will return, such as the ever-coveted Smelliest Auth Award ... but will the title change hands? hm.... Joining them will be a fresh shipment of MotY categories. Look forward to new ones such as last year's direly-missed Most Likely To Win Third Place Award, or such new gems as the Hippest Himbo Award! Categories will be officially announced on 12/21 and voting begins on 12/27. Winter Wondertrade The runaround is back! All day long, we'll be heating up Reborn's wondertrade servers with exclusive event mons sponsored by our mods and our leaders! In addition to that we invite everyone to get those bidoofs outta there and put on their best gift 'mons for the holiday season. Keep those trades moving and there is no telling what you may get! Super Secret Santa The classic secret santa shindig returns from last year as well! To participate in this, you must be willing to share your address with us and to spend real money. Participants and their wish lists will be entered into a drawing, and then everybody will be randomly (and secretly??) assigned another participant to buy and ship a gift for! Last year's was a lot of fun, and I still treasure the gift I ended up with, so I hope more folks will give it a shot! More information will be posted for this along with sign-ups on 11/20! There are some restrictions, so make sure to read the thread thoroughly when it goes up. Sign ups will be open for one week until 11/27! Smash Ultimate Tourney Another pow-wow writes itself into the schedule! For those of you who are confident in your brawling prowess and the Switch Online account to back it up are invited to beat each other senseless in another Reborn Party classic Smash Tourney sponsored by the one and ever-absent, Godot! Game Room- The Cockamamie Caucuses A brand new game joins the line up this winter! In this experimental game, the rules are made up and the points don't matter, but no matter whose line it is, it's sure to be a riot! Our expert candidate participants will line up and, in a manner surely most befitting of our nations' leaders, answer perfectly sensible questions such as What's the best way to build a horse out of ketchup, or How do you explain the undeniable connection between Dexit and the historic surge of criminal clown sightings back in 2016? Audience members will then be invited to torment-- I mean, engage the speakers with any questions they may have about the subject matter. At the end, the audience will vote for who was their favorite candidate of all, and that person will be crowned the Cockamamie Caucus Conqueror! Curses One of our favorite recent Summer Social games, Curses has been shifted to the Winter Revel's line up instead! Join us for one of two rounds of increasingly chaotic and destructive wordslaughter! Each player asks each other questions, answers them, and assigns 'curses' in the form of quirky typing conditions, restrictions, etc to the other players. Fail to uphold your curses and you could be called out! Who will be the last one standing? These games tend to get crazy after running for a while, so they are limited to 8 players each. Taboo A classic party game returning after being introduced to last year's party! Taboo features one keyword that must be guessed, but watch out! Each keyword comes with several banned words that you can't say! Make the other person guess your word with other clues before time runs out and collect points to beat out the other teams! Queen's Game The surviving Reborn party staple! Derived from the Japanese drinking game, King's Game, Queen's Game takes the 'dare' out of 'truth or dare' leaving only a wraggle-taggle mess of soul-revealing inquiries to strip you down to your core, embarrass you in front of your friends, and leave you feeling funny about it the next day. Only one rule stands: What happens in Queen's Game, stays in Queen's Game. Lie Alive Snowdown Last year's headlining event is now back as a returning game! Your powers of truth and deception are tested in this tournament-style contest of 2 Truths 1 Lie! In order to survive each round, guess your opponent's lie while keeping yours under wraps to knock them out and advance to the end! A final challenge may await whomever makes it to the top... Free for All- As ever, free use rooms will be available for those who want to start up their own games of Town of Salem, Jackbox, Boardgame Online, Hunger Games, Cards Against Humanity, or whatever else may strike your wicked fancies. Join us in the music channel too as our resident DJs bring to your the local holiday tunes to heat you up and cool you down amidst this frosty frolic! And that's all she wrote! These holiday parties have been a long-standing tradition for the site, and I for one am looking forward to another great year. I hope to see everyone there on December 28th!

  21. i would really like to live in a world where every game i want to make doesn't turn into a multi-year project, but i don't think this is that world also hi this post is brought to you from my actual desktop chair which i haven't sat in in weeks. and i am still only half-sitting. but i'm gonna call this a win anyway. still nobody expect anything from me yet though ;~;
  22. i cant really say i'm at it again yet. updating that file is just recordkeeping for things that come up on discord so i dont forget them later i still can't really sit up (sit down?) so until that time my functionality is probably still fairly limited
