The double post bug usually starts at 4:13 am. I'm going to post on this thread once per minute, starting at 3:55 If we get to 4:18 and the bug hasn't hit, I'm going to try re-enabling the plugins 1 by 1 and posting after each.

MFFA now exists on Giphy, Instagram, and Tumblr. The accounts are still brand new, but my hope is to slowly set up a resource collection system for random gifs and sprites that can be used in Mugen content creation.

Minor change of plans. I shortened the list of calendars being imported. There are now 4 total. Live Streaming Events Astronomical Events UN Observances National Independence Days The other difference is that they'll be visible in the calendar. The only one that will show up on the front page is still Live Streaming Events.

Last summer I started learning to spin a bo staff. Mostly for fun and exercise, not so much show or self defense. Figured I'd start a thread to keep track of my progress, maybe even get some input or give some pointers, who knows. It's not something I practice all the time, just when I want to get out during the day for a few minutes, get my blood pumping, take a break from the creative flow that I freakin live in. Anyway, started learning this one today. edit: I'm still not convinced I have as many elbows as this guy.

4th of July! There is now an International Holidays board, in the International section of Random Chatter. Topics there are auto-posted by a bot, and can be commented on by anyone, tho only the bot is allowed to start new topics. It combines the holiday calendar feeds of 17 different countries, a calendar of over 236 countries independence or national days, as well as a calendar feed of astronomical events. So, we're celebrating America's independence day by opening the floor to celebrate practically everyone else's independence day as well. And everyone's everything else for that matter. And for today only the forum icons are going back to their original look!

TOURNEY RESULTS ◥◣_______________________________________________ • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • FINAL RANKINGS! • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • 1st ~ Apsandman (Sandoro) 2nd ~ donsta 3rd ~ TheFclass97 [ link to full results on Challonge ] ( Embedding Scrolls Sideways ) ( -1 = Disqualified )

I added 5 New tags: ~ Originals ~ SNK ~ Capcom ~ Anime ~ Cartoon This is to align the available tags with the existing collections warehouse rooms, so the automation can do as much auto-organizing as possible. To minimize human effort required / make things as easy as possible on everyone in the end. The automoation isn't active yet. It'll kick on probably in the beginning of August, maybe a little earlier. But what it does is basically just take all the topics in the News and Releases forum that are older than 1 year, and move them into the Collections Warehouses. Whatever tags are on the topic determine which room in which warehouse they go into. Adding these 5 tags made all the rooms in all the warehouses 'taggable'. The exact logic of the automation is spoilered here, for anyone who's interested.

Yes, the title of this thread was my test to get into the 19th circle of hell.

The only thing I can think about now when I hear the name of this show is that guy getting his head crushed by the Mountain. That shit. Was fucked up.

I hear what you're saying about the g-mod thing being asked freely, where you never know who you're going to get applying. But if we narrow the field by making it a 'promotion only' type position, you never know who we're going to miss by handling the position that way. So my approach is to keep it open to both, but with a strong lean towards promoting, because the current section mods have clearly proven themselves already. The Social Media Experts function is outlined in the first link in my last post. (here) I'm currently waiting to hear back from the person running the FB. If they end up never responding, or something to that effect, we'll create an alternate FB page to work alongside the existing one.

Quoting this because I can't move the post here. But members can have up to 10 recipients for personal messages.

For everyone asking me to explain the positions in more detail, here's the link. The threads kinda new, still a bit of a wip on my part, so the display is... slightly less than optimal, shall we say? @DS12 Productions here's the link for the author thing. Discussion amongst staff is under way. Just wanted to let everyone know. That doesn't mean it's too late to put in your bid for a position, just that once we decide that's it, so time is limited.

STAFF MEMBERS ADMINISTRATORS Administrators or Admins are the highest ranking staff members. They oversee all aspects of the forum and make sure everything runs properly. They are not generally responsible for managing social conflicts, but will do so when they see fit. More so they oversee the rest of staff, handle technical operations, give roles and awards to members and manage the forum from low orbit at the big-picture level. GLOBAL MODERATORS Global Moderators, aka G-Mods, Global mods, or gmods are the sites peace keepers. They make sure everyone remains civil and follows the forums Guidelines. They try to resolve conflicts as fairly as possible, and if things escalate they issue verbal warnings, official warning points, and ultimately temporary or permanent site bans. They also do general organizing work around the site like making sure members are posting in the right forums and answering basic questions. When you click the 'Report this Post' button on a post, or the 'Report to Staff' button at the bottom of the page, it notifies all the G-Mods and Admins. COLLECTIONS CURATORS The Collections Curators work to upkeep the Collections section of the forum. They act as Section moderators there, making sure posts are where they should be, and occasionally reclaiming abandoned collections and upkeeping them. Sometimes they'll revive an abandoned collection by passing off ownership to someone else. So if you see a collection where the last comment says it's abandoned and seeking a new owner, contact a Collection Curator if you'd like to be that new owner. A collection is considered abandoned if it hasn't had any activity in 2+ years and the owner has not visited the site in 2+ years. EVENT OVERSEERS Event Overeers manage events in the Special Events section like Character / Stage of the Month / Year, and The Monthly Judgement. You can read more about these events there, or by checking the Features tab in the nav bar, and selecting Special Events from the sub-menu. If you're interested in participating in any of these, you'll find instructions there, or you can contact an Event Overseer if you still have any questions. IKEMEN SENSEI The Ikemen Senseis manage the Ikemen Dojo, which is the sites Ikemen hub. If you're interested in playing Mugen online against other people, that's the place to visit. We have a Discord server dedicated to this purpose as well. When things are running smoothly we try to have an Ikemen Tourney once per season (4 times a year / every 3 months). If you're interested in participating, check out the Dojo or the server. SOCIAL MEDIA SQUAD The Social Media Squad, or Soc-Med Squad for short don't really do much moderation or organization around the site. They mostly just run our offsite accounts which we call our "outposts", such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr etc. Our Discord server is another story altogether. Most of the staff are present there,. It's not the territory of the Social Media Squad. APPLY FOR STAFF If you're interested in joining the team and helping to run the forum please apply here. You don't need to be a vet on the site or anything, you just need to be active and interested. Apply for Staff Here

The 2 social media experts we're taking on to help the forum network outward a little, draw in some new people, build the communities future base, and make us more easily accessible to people on platforms they're already on anyway, like facebook, twitter, twitch, youtube etc. I will say there is a grand design at work here that should slowly become visible over the next month or so.
