~ How this works? ~
Send a note to PPMAIL under the name "Valentine Giftbox"

Write down the name /username of the character you want to have the giftbox deliver along with the color of the giftbox.
Rina will deliver them on chat/rp, so the person needs to be online for them to recieve them.
No need to add a message , since the giftbox itselfs means something.
You can only send them to 2 persons at the time, if you want to send more youll have to wait until your first delivery is done.

Remember to be specific : if you want your gift to be anonymous / secret . Or if you want the person to know from who the present is. !

But you may start sending the notes starting from now.

Cystal Gang Event - Battle Summary


Hello! Heres a mini very easy summary for those who still have questions about how battles will work during this event.

Some things to consider:
- For those who have battled before on rp probably know battles taking a long of time from hours to even days.
- The result of a battle or to decide who wins normally is decided during the battle depending on how things are going on. (when the players have no decided a winner before).
- People might log in and out or go into “lurk – brb (be right back) - afk (away for keyboard)” during the event (since events last several hours) leaving his/her battle partner waiting.

Considering all this the randomizer to decide the result of a battle. The event will take place in several locations/gyms . To prevent people for having incredibly long battles to decide the winner (platform has 8 gyms) the winner of the battle will be decided before that. Yes it might seem unfair, but the result will be completely random (by luck). Besides if your character has ended the battle we don’t want you to be waiting until the others to decided who the winner be(also we don’t want the event to last like 8 hours..otl). Other advantage is that in case a player has to leave during the event , the other person will know the result of the battle and he/she will be able to rp the result of the battle. By knowing the result of the battle you can just have your character have long or short battles depending on your mood. A lot of people have never battled before, this will be a good way to help them out if they are not familiar with battles.
We know some characters will have the advantaje in type (fire, rock, grass, etc). But remember even in real pokemon battles its posible to win even if your opponent has the advante in type.

About the battle system . .

In a chatroom theres 4 people: Member1, Member 2 , GangMember 1 and Gangmember2.
To prevent the whole “whos fighting who?” the battles will be decided via randomizer. Or in case you want to battle to a specific person you can ask (note plz).

Battle: Member1 vs GangM2 and Member2 vs GangM1.
The result will be given. So you can rp the battle the way you want as long as the result is as it was given.

During battles: Member 1 and Member 2 were defeated!
Oh no! , the gang members have defeated the members, with no people left defending the gym and only gang members standing the gym has been taken over. So the event moves to another stage/gym.

During battles: GangMember1 and GangMember2 were defeated!
Yay! The gang members have been defeated . This can happen in any gym since the results will be randomize. If the gang is defeated .. something will happen. (not gonna reveal the plot here folks ~ youll have to see for yourself).

I hope this has solved your questions about battles during the event.
This was a quick simple explanation about the battles, please read the complete Cristal Gang Event Blog entry > HERE
Remember to send a note to inform us your participating so your name will be added to the lists of participants to use with the randomizer.

Crystal Gang Event

Event Date: Sunday 23

Please read all the Info that is below,
It will have a password that you’ll need to enter.
It will be a phrase, a sort of way of knowing you’ve
Read this blog.
The event, if you do not read your chances in
Joining the event is slim. So please read through all of it <3
So rumors are all around the island, about a gang, and its crew. Its leader of being evil, while his crew nothing, but a mess of trouble makers. They are horribly true. Right now each member seems to be unable to stop themselves from creating chaos. It seems unnatural, to the ones who used to know the pokemon. But it just looks like the pokemon are evil to others who are oblivious.

To the gang
A tick, a small crick in your neck, a small drumming in your ears, the crystals are now pure white…and the poison is now fully in your blood. Constantly bugging you, eating at you sleep or awake, you feel like you can take the world, twice over. A frivolous high for grabbing something to rip it apart or simply wanting to put your fangs into. The senses are heightened to a point of confusion, making it hard to concentrate, though a voice seems to calm you. And only that voice, everything else seems like a constant white noise of the radio.

“Wait just wait, we’ll start soon…” A simple, yet much known chuckle echoes in your ears. Xerox stands in front of the small and tenacious gang. With a sinister smile on his face his voice held confidence. “Just calm, we will get to have our fun. First off…though let me go over some things.” He held out a hand and smiled gently. “My friends, my wonderful friends, today we are going to make this place into our own. It’s not much, but I want to offer you the island. It’ll take some work, but we will start by rewriting the gyms as our own.” Password phrase part ‘I’. “I want us to stay together, as friends and allies we should watch over each others backs, no soloing out here, no matter what. If you do leave to go by yourself, I for one…wouldn’t be able to help you in your time of need…nor any others. And I can’t have that. So, lets all work together all right?” Crimson eyes glared at each of his members, but a constant crooked smile on his face and his tone, was soothing.

His hand moved onto the table which each member sat at. On it, there was a map. “We will start with..Acuity…then we shall move our way to valor. We’ll rest right after….then we’ll continue to verity…Next after joy…Rocket…Oak…then.” His hand hesitated over ilex…it slowly moved itself to the pallet gym, his grin turned sharp, fangs showing. “Pallet, we all know you guys love the leader there..” Chuckles away and transforming a claw he scratches at the map. Ripping it. “Ilex…Ilex last, I will have…NONE of you..touch her…Do not even dare attacking Venila.” Password phrase part two ‘pledge’. A growl was found in the now not so soothing voice. “If I see you…You wont be considered my ally nor my friend and will be pinned up as the rest of the people who stand in our way!” His voice turned into something of a snarl. Though with a paused breath, he quickly straightens out his back. His stance straightened a gentle smile on his face. “lets begin then, lets…all have fun!” Raising his arms in a welcomed way his voice joyous.


HOW GANG IS FIGHTING
The gang all together will fight as a group. Even if gang members are missing from the actual event, their character will still be added.
What do I mean?
Well when the even starts up and the first gym is attacked. It will be the AMOUNT OF GANG MEMBERS, VS AMOUNT OF (specific) GYM NUMBERS.

EXP:

So. Team Rocket, on the side of the chatbox. There it always shows the number of people, as well the users, that are in that gym.

Lets say, both Kazzari and Smackplz is in the chatbox. So that will count for 2 Gym members.
So in the gang there will be lets say exp…11 Gang members. So
11 VS 2.
The gang wins taking hardly any damage and enjoys their victory taking over the gym.
((WOAH THAT’S NOT FAIR))

It’s basic logic. The gym will be taken over by the gang….Now what happens to its gym members? They run away damaged , living to fight another day.

RUN AWAYS : Are member of fallen gyms. They are the only members! In the rp that can help other gyms. Only when you’re a run away can you help defend newly attacked gyms.

So Kazzari and Smackplz get wind that. Team Pallet is being attacked, so they can run to help them.

So team pallet has for example.password phrase part three ‘i have’ 6 members. So the run aways come over. And help out. Making it 8.
11 VS 8.
Well the gang still wins.
So the members of both gyms are now run aways…now they go to help out Joy, which they find out is now being attacked. Joy has 4 Users in there currently.
So! 12 members to Joy’s Defence.
11 VS 12.

NOW we are getting somewhere. The gym isn’t taken over. You’ve stopped the onslaught of the gyms CONGRATS THE HEROS!
_______________________________________But this is where the real battle begins.


RPING BATTLE

When the gym is finally able to stand against the gang.

I will roll and randomize the names of the gang and those who are currently in the event. That way, people can slowly take down by other people, that way each member can have their own battle in an orderly way. Password phase four ‘read and’. It can be two against one, but the person I roll that takes down the gang member will be the one who does the last blow!

I do take requests though on who wants to deal with who. But why ruin the fun with randomness?

The website I will be using is.
[link] With that I will randomize, who goes down first and last, and who does the last blow.

Xerox will not be randomized in this. He will be last to be dealt with when all gang members fall.password phrase five ‘to follow’
When he finally falls, it will not be over. Not in the least.
The description will be put into the chatboard when it happens. The randomizer will be used once again to deal with the next part that will be produced.


Please send password to Imsorrybuti BY NOTE.
I will then keep a list of the users who are entered in the event. If you do not, I will not have your name available for the randomizing and you will not be able to take part of the fighting. Password phrase six ‘Guidelines.’ I will warn also, if guidelines are not met, and there is trouble. Moderators will kindly remove you into Main chat.
For those who do not wish to be in the event. You can go to main chat, for that will be side area for regular rp.

Information about the event and other stuff can be found there ~

Winter Princess and Prince Results :

Lets remember how people were able to participate in this event (this information was posted in the journal) :

Members needed to send in a note with your characters name and his/her date
How to win:
Paricipate in the event. This could be via: ball related artwork (example: a drawing of what your character will wear) collabs with you and your date ( team work) be online during the events and be active (lurking is not the same as participating) rping about the event ( show interest!).
Bonus: “Princess and Prince” involves 2 people. It both people work together and rp together that will increase their changes of winning (it’s a date event after all, not a solo)

There were not any specific requirements for this event. Participation was very important. Members wanting to do artwork and rp related to the event by themselves , so I counted the artworks members did related to the event along with them being online during the event ~ Collabs were important as well , since a date/ball event includes 2 persons , a couple working together won extra points! -
Its obvious that people cant win if they show no interest or are absent during the event ~

Heres a mini summary of what the participants did :
Note: a lot of people did submit works related to the ball… after the ball.. so those were not counted or included here.

About Participation:
Not only did the artwork/collabs counted, but also the fact that you were online since it was a 3 day event.
Showing up during the 3 days increased the participants chances to wint more that showing up only 1 day. (its kinda obvious).
Participants:
This event was open for all members, even moderadors. Since it was a "take someone to the ball" and a "everybody gets along" event, it seem unffair to have people not participate for being a mod or for the members that have their chacters date a leader/elite four (wich were the dates). I wanted everybody to participate and have fun:)
The only mod in charge of the voting was nekosorayagami.
(i kinda had to point this out due to some comments , just wanted to clear that out, it was all fair)
