And a link that leads to herpaderp. Unless you guys have disguised the games by making the site look like an unused wordpress.

Yeah... I'm in the process of hacking the wordpress platform, intergrating it with a forum (kind of... it's a new type of forum) and then hacking that into the facebook platform... then intergrating it with our own Pixels! platform, adding some nice spices and stuff and yeah, I've gone through the effort of learning HTML, CSS, Javascript and PHP to do it so hopefully in ~2 weeks it'll work...

E: Greg - your best off updating here for now

E2: BTW guys website will be epic when it's done, if all goes to plan it'll be the best tool on the internet for creatively collaborating together to create truly epic story-driven projects, long shot I know but convincing yourself as such is a great motivator!

It better not be the same wordpress forum type that Castle Story used before switching over to the castlestoryonline.com forums officially. That was silly and awkward to use as a forum, its more of a glorified, enhanced commenting system.

Well, I think that the turn summary he showed us would certainly be at least 5 turn's worth of material in any other forum game.

Suffice to say, this will be fun. When it happens.

Oh I never got around to actually describing the website >_< Ok, imagine the same rough setup as Facebook so at the top you have your logo, notifications, private messages, profile link, login/logout form + searchbox. On the right you have a column which contains one block of news posts and one below it with an advertisement, on the left you have an activity feed which displays what people have most recently done relevant to you and below that a block which just displays when updates have been made to project's you are following. Then in the center rather than status updates you'll get forum boards (known as projects) that you can sort by rating, date created, or whether it's been featured, anybody will be able to create a project and have limited admin powers. That roughly sums it up...

ROLLCALL.

I'm starting this back up, I need to know who's here and who isn't! As you know, I'm making significant changes to this. Since I might be getting evicted if I don't get a job in 2 weeks, I'm going to spend the day out job-hunting and the evening working on my Scifi to keep my mind off of my personal issues. With that said, I have multiple hours to work on this so I am hoping to get this thing kickstarted back into action.

Since the Pixels! website isn't fully-converted to the format Ashton is custom-designing yet, I'm going to continue Rise of Hyperion right here until the time comes to move.

Edio, attending and present.

[ashton1993]

Oh yeah, I might pass on this game now  Nah, just kidding ^_^ I'll be your xenoarchaeologist

[Aklyon]

Still here, as whatever engineer I was supposed to be.

[PyroDesu]

*Raises hand sheathed in dark purple energy*

The dude that is too damned inquisitive for his own good is here. Or am I? Am I part here and part nowhere?

No matter, I'm here.

[adwarf]

STILL HERE !!!

[Tidal]

And I, the xeno... biologist!

Alright! Ashyboy got the forum running with the new format. Its not pretty, but he's do the beautification coding as we go. The important thing is, its useable! Official release isn't until June still, but for our Hyperion/Hope folk, we're kickstarting the fun!

Register, hit Projects, click Rise of Hyperion, and that's the activity feed you can customize from the drop-menu to show whatever you wish. Click Forum and you can access the actual related threads, an Archive and the actual RP thread so far, and start posting.

I'm going to be transferring my Lore and our old turns/etc to the new forum, so I have a feeling I'm going to end up having a thread for alien races, one for tech, one for player/equipment manifest, one for turns, etc, just to keep it nice and organized. There is a LOT of fun...

The Lore might spoil a little of the epic !!FUN!! but trust me when I say I have some EPIC plots that you guys will absolutely LOVE!

Now get your bums to the forum and do your thing so I can start involving you in intergalactic civil wars, xeno-cleansing, discovering powerful ancient technology that goes horribly wrong, and extra-planar exploration of strange dimensions!

Muuuust. Updaaaaaate.

Muuuust. Updaaaaaate.

Indeed.
