There’s now dedicated forum space for the Consortium of Justice over at the Alliance forum. I still need to get the various folders there set up, with instructions on what goes where and so on and so forth.
By the nature of our shift over to the Alliance, the Consortium will be changing some. It will, for example, no longer be just the hang-out place for folks in my and Margie’s orbit of friends. That’s regrettable on one level, but, on another, it’s exciting.
It’s also an opportunity for further RP and journaling of gameplay (IC) for the multitude of CoJ players already with us, particularly those of you without your own webspace.
Something you can do in the next few days, whilst the CoJ forum is being set up. We’ll be asking every member to put something for their hero into the “Portfolio” folder.
- Minimum: A paragraph to describe your hero (probably the same as what you have in your ID card).
- Preferred: An outline dossier, similar to the FP template (but without the optional player info).
- Even better: As above, but with a link to a Crey Threat Analysis of your character.
Until the furniture is moved in, you can be scribbling something up for your characters.
The other odd thing about the Consortium in the AoC forum will be the idea of matches between forum IDs and heroes. Given the highly “alt” nature of the Consortium heroes, I don’t expect a 1:1 ratio of logins to heroes. You might want to consider, though, making an ID (or two) for your “main alts” in the Consortium, so that their cute little picture and name will show up next to your biography and such. I’ve already done this for Honeygun and Torchielle. (Let me know if you need a space for your forum icon, or need help pulling one together, since I have most of you in screen caps already.)
The Blog of Heroes, though, isn’t going anywhere. I have plenty of intention of continuing to do OOC gameplay descriptions and notes and CoH news here. I’ve already been doing most of my IC stuff over in the forums, and that’ll continue.
I’m letting you know that I need a space for my forum icon, and that I need help pulling one together.
Actually two, I suppose. I forgot about the rarely-seen Power Fists. He is a member, though, so I suppose I should include him.
Is the new site where Avocet should brag about taking out an office building full of Freakshow monstrosities all by himself? (I was going to do that here.)
Once the Portfolio pages are in place, that would be a great space for that.
As for icons …
Take your pick. These were the better ones I had via the screenshots. Just right-click to get the properties, then paste the http address into bottom field of the profile page (after the account is created and logged in and you go back to the profile).
Oh, here’s a better one for Amorpha, too.
