...I think it was my explanation bit that was misworded, then, because I like the characters being created and owned by individuals idea and I did mean latter.

Ah.
I'd rather have gym leaders be created by people in general, and we all come to a general agreement on them.
It would get wierd to have different gym leaders for the same gym in different stories taking place nearly concurrently.

I think I misworded my explanation of what I meant by that, too, then. I'm just full of fail tonight.
The gym leaders would be pre-established -- who's where, who's who. No one would change who and where the gym leaders are. But each gym leader would be created and maintained by a single person, just like another character. It would be established and enforced that they are the gym leader, though. Ah... does that make more sense?

I'd prefer that we would come to a collective agreement on gym leaders though. That being said, once that is done we'd lock the Wiki page for these gym leaders so that they remain absolute thereafter, and the information only changes upon an appeal process. |

Newfag here; it's alright to just jump in right now, is it?
Anyways, a few cents on the whole Gym Leader thing.
I don't really think giving people Gym Leader roles would be that great of an idea. Unless the Gym Leaders themselves are somehow involved in the story like they were in B/W, the people taking the extra GL role are essentially badge vendors. And if the GL's are involved in the story, they'll likely have to leave the Gym: what happens to the people who want to make a challenge then?
I haven't thought all too deeply about the whole Gym Leader issue so there's probably a good way to make it all work, but right now I don't think making Gym Leaders PC's would be really feasible.

I say we just make gym leaders NPCs with a "Terms of Use" outlining how the character can be used. That would limit the scope of using them for other shit.

May I be a Gym Leader? Or a important character? Please?

Mango, don't worry, jump in wherever you'd like. No one'll mind.
Lots of valid points made there. So the gym leaders should just be played as NPCs with strict terms of use that we all create as a cooperative effort?

Well growlithe, nobody's really an important character in this.

Oh OK! But I can be a character? Also, if anyone needs help with writing, I'm the guy!

Anyone who doesn't make perfect Mary Sues and sticks with the canon can have characters. We just have to get the wiki up and running. Speaking of which can anyone explain how to use this to me because I am used to an entirely different setup and oh my god what is going on here.
Alright, so I think it's safe to assume that the NPCs with strict terms of use thing can be counted official. Discussion for individual designs should probably go in other threads.

Dude, as mentioned before, you can make your own character as long as it follows canonical law, doesn't godmode, and isn't a mary sue. Here's our wiki. You can start outlining your character (or characters) now if you wish: trleague.wikia.com/wiki//tr/ainers%27_League_Project_WikiBe sure to include this template in your source code of your page: {{Character |name= |image= |gender= |age= |starter= |pokebro= |party= |pcbox= |badges= |}} Also, The character page should preferably have the following headings: >Attitudes towards things and people >Personality >Appearance >Behaviours >Habits (if any) >Terms of Use The person who created this character would lay out rules on how he can be used. >Character Storyline If you don't have the aforementioned headings and the relevant information under each, then others will just use your character in ways you don't want them to be used. |
