Pre-Liminary Round 1: BJ's Group

[Ruhiel]

Bujin, yeah, brilliant job on taking charge while I wasn't here. The weakness you pointed out hits met yet again, due to the "can't always be online" issue.

But those tasks look good. And you all have convinced me that the character switching issue does need to be addressed.

But I think you've made the tasks just a bit too broad. I say we focus everything we have onto working out the character switching issue, and then go after what the problems are that are causing people to switch characters. Like you mentioned in your "dolphin death" breakdown above.

We need to make this look professional, well-thought out, and the best it can be. Let's make sure the one issue we're focusing on IS done this way before we start to branch out anymore.

So, sorry to switch up your assignments, Bujin, but I want us to revolve entirely around the issue of character switches at first.

Here's the things I'd like to compile:

1. How to go about switching characters - A short explanation so that people who don't know how to do this will be able to get the idea, and to avoid the same questions being repeated over and over. It doesn't have to be long, but just explain what they need to go, where to post, and any helpful hints you can think of.

2. Character Switching Penalties - Come up with what we think the new requirements should be, and then put them together in a neat-looking format.

3. Edit the joining page - We don't have to change much here, but simply edit in a note about how the character you choose to start with is the one you should do your best to stick with, and also links to the penalties for switching, so as to help people try to find a character they find suitable, not one that they'll just "use" until a saiyan opens up, like they usually do.

Now, here's what I'd like each of you all to do:

We need to discuss and come to complete agreement on the penalty changes. Also, if we think the process itself needs to be changed, we need to decide on that as well. Once that is done, I'd like for Zarbon and myself to tackle part #1, Goku Jr and Bujin to handle part 2, and Gohan can take #3. If you object to your assignment, let me know, and I'll do my best to get you switched around.

But in the meantime, we need to focus on what we want everything changed to. I'll have my recommendations about the penalties and process of switching characters up in a moment, and also thoughts on how we should merge our ideas into one, solid idea.

Sound good? Alright then, let's do this.
