Head to Unity for the news. Looks like we're getting that reaverbot event after all. The guidelines are pretty similar to the Bonne Mech event but it's a bit simpler, and it comes with a prize of Unity Points, a place in the credits, and a premium Servbot number for the winner this time around. Could be a little wild but interesting. But this doesn't seem quite as fleshed out as the Bonne Mech event. They're asking for some pretty basic stuff: a name (up to ten characters), up to three pictures, and a description of less than or equal to 100 words. We could get a collab going, but on that end, it looks like they added a little clarification for group entries. It's a bit discouraging; I don't think we could even get group credit in the credits if we pull one of those this time. EDIT: Oh yeah, more little info: the deadline is February 1st; anyone who enters receives 5000 Unity points; runners up receive 10,000 Unity points; and the winner receives 30,000 Unity points, in addition to a spot in the credits, a badge, and a premium Servbot number from #1-41.

They clearly learned from the Bonne Event and how out of control that became (for better or worse), and I'm pretty sure now they are going to be pushing all the translating on Greg, hence the word count.
That said, they seem to have a rule on editing.
-If you wish to edit your submission, please delete the original submission and then repost the edited version.
So it would probably be best to post initially like hear to get feedback, so I think I'll do so as well ^^;

A Reaverbot contest, eh? ;D Well, it's finally here! Heck, I've already got an idea or two of my own, but I'm totally up for more collaboration if you guys are too. I'm kinda pumped for this one, honestly.  Well guys, how about it? Ready for the next contest!? :E1: |

If there is anyway I can be of assistance, please let me know.

Honestly, I'd rather collaborate anyway. I've got enough CU points to last me a lifetime, and definitely wouldn't mind handing the baton to someone else this time around. Working together again would definitely be awesome. >:]
Actually...if we had a team of, say, five MMLS'ers working collaboratively on three or so total designs, do you think it'd still be legitimate if three different MMLSers OP'd? I mean, if you get 5k just for participating in the first place...

This was the contest i was waiting for, i had the intention to submit my previously created reaverbots, but none of them fits the basic design rules mentioned so i will make a new one. I passed on the previous contest, but now i´m ready to try again for my own, still, i´ll be glad to help you again if you plan to collaborate.
Any of you think the deadline is too close? a bit less than 2 weeks!

It was only a matter of time before they hosted it. I would suggest that Skye enter the Pocommi, but they're looking for Reaverbots of the "four-legged, large variety". It's a shame that they have to be specific on such a big subject, but I'd be more than happy to watch the collaboration take place and give feedback.  edit: the deadline is actually in 12 days (for GMT). I know this because there's a day countdown on another site for February 1st for a completely unrelated reason. |

My body is ready. I already have an idea in the works right now, but I really want to collaborate with you guys over it. I'd personally prefer if they gave a more specific scenario, but they went with a general focus here: make a Reaverbot that players will love to duke it out with the whole game, because it gonna be in every ruin. That is quite a hard thing to do right, but I'd love to design something with you guys. Sign me up!

Though I have already made my submission (bad timing?), I am willing to help out in any way.

You can count on me for collab. I can try to do a personal submission on the side, but I'll rather focus on the collab first and get my entry after... I'm busy anyway so that's a good excuse o.o;
Let's start with one reaverbot. If we can get one done quick enough with the quality standard we want, we can work on another. Repeat until deadline. We can then choose a new OP each time. Of course, Dashe is a runner-up and a winner in the DevRoom record. I think the torch should go to someone else. I am a winner too so I'm opting out of being the OP of the collab (other people more deserving anyhow).
If everyone is in, I'm in!

We could get a collab going, but on that end, it looks like they added a little clarification for group entries. It's a bit discouraging; I don't think we could even get group credit in the credits if we pull one of those this time. Clearly the solution is to create an entirely fictitious person called "Legends Station Collab Team", who will be controlled by the Team, and who will submit documents and proposals to CU. Mr/Mrs. MMLS Collab Team would need to be treated like a person in their own right for the duration of their employment as official MMLS-Unity liaison, and it would be demanded that Mr/Mrs. MMLS Collab Team's name be credited as such. Would work better if MMLS Collab Team was an LLC (legal corporate 'person' in the eyes of the law) but this should work just as well; it's still "one person". |

I suppose this could work. However, I think it would be wise to ask Greg about it first. I mean, they know we exist so doing that behind their back ain't gonna help one bit.
Though if the mention is Legends Station and they have nothing against it, let's do it.

I'll help with the collab. Are you guys gonna notify us when you get together? I can't help with design or drawing but I'll help with it's attack plan and such. Truth be told this one's not nearly as exciting because of how linear they are being about it.
