Metaroom Idea

I was thinking...my norns have gotta be homsick on that ark...why don't we make a metaroom of the surface of Sphericus? I'll be upstairs, doing concept art for about 15 mins. I'll post 'em soon.

ps. I haven't played Monster Raannnrrrnnchhdoggy

Homesick? No norn has ever even seen Sphericus, let alone lived upon it. :p

As a general rule of thumb, I advise against making add-ons that mimic canon events that haven't occurred, it's bad for the continuity of a series.

I don't mean to cramp your creativity or development by any means, in fact, I support it, but consider what I said when deciding upon your location, or the location you are reflecting.

What's wrong with making addons that presage future canon events? C4 or C3D is years away, if ever, unfortunately - we may never get a "canon" Sphericus. Why not build on what we've got? (Mind you, asking Lisa might be an idea before beginning, ES. ;) )

From my experience in other communities, there was so much modding that involved future events, that the official developers had nothing to work with for future titles. As an artist, it's creatively cramping to develop something that has already been extensively developed by others.

@ Moe: They haven't been on real land for...how long? So it's better than nothing.

@ Malkin: What part of 'no e-mail' do you not understand? :) Could you, possibly?

Okay, I'm lost here. What "no email" are we talking about?

Sphericus - tough call. Though yes, no norn on either vessel has ever set foot on a planet of any nature. All they know is the ships. I'll bet when humans have generation ships there'll be interesting discussions over staying on ship or going to the new planet


Back again! Beware!

I didn't know you had 'no email'. It's better if you contact Lisa because the metaroom would be your project. You could always start work to begin with, and just change the name if Lisa says no, couldn't you? ;)


I feel that we could retcon any Sphericuses (Sphericii?) and C4s as being in a parallel universe once the *real* C4/C3D comes out. (in however many years). I'm not sure how much attention the developers would pay to the community anyway.

Good grief, man. There's no excuse not to have a working e-mail address these days. How about Gmail, or Windows Live Hotmail, or Yahoo Mail, or mail.com, or any of a huge number of other free e-mail providers? Just plop some personal information (whether of dubious validity or not) in there, and off you go. Not having an e-mail address of any kind in these days of multiple-gigabytes-of-storage free accounts is pretty silly. :)

I can think of one possible reason - protective parents. However, with *proper* supervision, an email for a youngster shouldn't be a problem. It's only when the word supervision doesn't appear in the parent's vocabulary that they usually just rule out that sort of contact ability completely. The "I can't be bothered watching you but I don't want you getting into trouble and don't trust you" attitude.

Back again! Beware!

That sucks. :( Sorry. Hang in there and hopefully they'll lighten up a bit.

When I'm 13 he's getting me G-Mail, eBay, and Paypal accounts. I'm already and eBay addict, so it'll be fun to sell all my old beanie babies.

*notices that this topic is going off-topic* ...Soooo, that sounds like a cool idea! I'd really like to see your concept art.

Yeah, if C4 or C3D never gets on the market, then why not? They must want to be on a serface of a world sometime, right? It would make them happy to be on earthen soil rather than solid metal for a change ;). I'm sure my Norn's would enjoy it ^_^
