Yay, Val's back! Now he can work on his series along with our RPs!

I was going to leave it as that but then I had to do something random to celebrate, sort of... So I compiled a bunch of statistics from all but RA's RPs and just decided to put some stuff together about the character sheets... Here it is...

Heh, it's a lot of information... Maybe next year I'll finish it without mistakes... Oh, and feel free to ask questions, or complaints, feel free to tell me about it, I'll appreciate any response, or none at all, whatever, hehe... This was just something random I did over the last month.
I have to say, that's VERY impressive data! Though the snake count is about to go up in one role play though. :)

Thanks xhunterko, look forward to finishing up the work... Might try and make it better, add more, try and figure out how to work out the how to go about what to take and what not to take...

Though I have to ask again, is there anywhere else beside the Roleplaying section that RP character sheets were made for the RPs here? I got the Make a character and a few others that may or may not have mixed in Fanfic work with stuff here... Just trying to clear that up so I don't leave anyone out.

There's also the old main ooc that some players still have character sheets in.

Yeah I know about the old Main OOC, I'm going to go through all the old inactive RPs too along with the other Main OOC pages. I just wasn't expecting characters to be found in the Fanfic section, I know some in there probably were not used in an RP so I was just wondering what character sheets are used here that are found in somewhere else not anywhere in the RP forum.

I think that's all of them. There might be some in the "Babylon Gardens OOCs and Fursonas" thread in the Fan Fiction section but I'm not 100% sure. Other than that there wouldn't be anything.

Thanks Hlaoroo, I'll be sure to check that out and add too! I just finished re-going through all the stuff I already did and added RA... But I hit a couple of questions that I guess I'll just ask here for anyone who cares to put in their opinion. (I still would absolutely love any help from anyone that wants to put into this little pointless side project, you'll get my... Something for the help!)

Okay, since I want to try and make this thing of 'data' as accurate as possible...
1. I wasn't going to add to the statistics if the same sheet was re-posted solely to be re-posted.
- But I was going to add more to the numbers if anything was changed in the character sheet that involves anything I covered before.
- Or if the character sheet was re-posted after the original person left and came back reapplying with the same character sheet and they posted it.
- Or if they brought a character to another RP, that would affect the total but... I don't know it deserves something right?

2. I made the mistake of trying the general group species together, however I didn't do that thoroughly on that draft.
- Should I leave the species just as the original sheet wrote it. (Would break the dog and cat group down a lot.)
- Group every species by the general family term. (Wouldn't really reflect the RPs well in my opinion, but I want this to be reflective of the RP in everyone here eye's.)
- Or do a more reasonable mix of being specific with the specific RP statistics and generalizing it in the totals? And break down the big groups in different charts? (Leaning towards this myself.)

3. Just curious, I am going to add more charts and stuff to break down the history and current thing of the RPs here, but just curious to see if any of you want to see something added that would show anyone looking at it a more real view of the RPs and the ideas the wonderful people like you guys and gals have.
- And this is just sort of a joke (But if yes then this isn't a joke.), should I include Mickey's joke character?

I Would break the charts up into multiple images. as is, the font gets too small to read in some places with them all in one.

also do the lines separating the 'pie wedges' need to be 3 pixels wide? it makes some of the wedges hard to see.
Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

I'll be happy to lend a paw, Civ. But only starting on Monday though, I'll be busy this weekend doing a spring cleaning of the house. My mum kinda begged me to help clean the 'garbage isles' as she calls them xD

On that note, I might be away for a bit, but I'll drop by anytime I can (owo)/

Yeah, I was going to break that down better, and for the pixel thing, MS Office is not very friendly when it comes to why on earth that it needs to be that size only no matter what... Was going make the charts bigger, but multiple images is better, thanks for the advice.

I would love the help whenever you can give it, but you don't need to do it at all if you're going to be busy, this is just a side project... Thingy... Whatever... Well good luck cleaning up then.

I wasn't entirely serious about the taxonomic classification, but it could be a useful guide.

(I do have my avatars in SL organized that way, because I have over 300 of them)

Maybe a different kind of chart would be better?

Ah, well it is a good idea, and yeah I might mess around with the other charts, mostly just bar charts since line ones, ah, may not make sense, hehe...

So... I'm back home, and the house is pretty much like a frat house after Friday night. It'll take a month of Sundays (I think literally) to really clean this place up, but for the meantime, some rudimentary cleaning will have to do to make the place decent for human dwelling. Will be away until Monday, sadly.

Sheesh, that's a lot of people leaving for a few days... Hope you have fun WeirdGamer and Brent, and still good luck with that cleaning, find a way to have fun with it, heh...

Anyway, more random trivial stuff out of me, well, this time more curious ferret wanting to know something trivial... Sorry for being like this here and taking up this space. Okay, the questions, given how big the RP is here on Housepets! what kind of logo, if there could be one, do you think it would have... What do you think it would look like, like the Housepets logo and then what underneath and a little over it do you think would represent the RPs overall the best, or if one had to be made what would represent it the best? And if there was music, what kind of music (Only instrumental kinds please for this question.) do you think would also represent all the RPs overall and get people, um, hyped, about the RPs? So, um, any ideas...

Hmmmmmm....... I'd think Steelhaven would be in the same metallic font as the Transformers Cybertron logo. It would probably have some upbeat remix of the Star Wars intro music as its theme.

My home internet is being flaky and I seem to get maybe 5-10 minutes of use before the internet crashes again and it takes two hours to reboot to where I can use it again. It should be fixed some time tomorrow I hope. In the mean time I will try to co-gm Chival and post in the other RP's when I can, I don't have much data left on my phone and still have 13 days before that GB amount renews so I won't be able to use a lot of it for posting right now.

Hello, my fellow RPers!
I want you all awesome folks to know that I am alive, well and finally able to relax and actually use my computer for something I enjoy. There was a big annual event of my clan (rather a really, really big family) I just had to participate (considering I was one of the hosts), but now I am free. However, I am in no shape to post at the moment, so my posts will have to wait until tomorrow.

Thank you for your understanding and patience with me. It truly means a lot.
