So formal and neat... Ok sorry, lets get back to business.
Can I just take Map Properties?
I like working with that. But if it must come down to it, then I could do mission briefings as most of you don't know what skills I have in that.

Well, i would like to see Bolt_Head, Master Virus and Tuxedo Templar working on this. But in the end it's up to them. I just know that they'd do a good job.

I'm not going to volunteer, i'm not good enough, besides, i have a project of my own.

Also, ShaftedTwice, always think twice about accepting volunteers, make sure that they will do a good job ;)

I'd work on this... but it'd compete with my current RPG, and I know nothing about these boards! =p

Not to fear, l is here

l'll be damned if a total newbie attempts to create a map in which you know nothing about in these forums. l wont help since the idea of a forum based map wont even fly. Nobody will want to play a map where a hero named 'Renzokuken' is trying to stop the evil 'CrookedFoot' from creating his evil army of 'Demons'. l have seen the attempts of a map attempted to be created through a 'forum' [BlizzSCUMS for a perfect example]. ln Roman times a 'forum' was a big wide building where people of all kinds go to discuss. The key point of a forum is disscusion, in which you can only talk about map making, even then you learn so much. l have learned a 30% of my newer map making skills here, but the rest is in actions.

Heres what l say: The map wont fly
lf you prove me wrong, l encourage you to create a map forum based, and throw it in my face. lf not; l will laugh.

Damn right, don't you forget it either! :p

But the game would have to be pretty complex, for it to work it'd prolly have to be a series of side-quests, or a campaign.

It is no differend than any other map. The only difference is that you have a hero named 'Super Mario' in the other games.

Besides, why not making it?

Only if you think that you will help out and do good to the map.

Anyway i started terrain and once i find either:

A. SCunprotect
or
B. The original

I'll post it.

Edit: Found unprotect, just gotta figure out how to use it :(

Im relatively new to these forums, so I probably couldnt take part in the plot creation; however, I am quite skilled when it comes to making briefings. If anyone has played Weebl Bound or Weebl Bound 2, I constructed both of those briefings (KoE)Tsunami).

I noticed Apple is on here, he could probably vouch for me o_O.

I have also made a few breifings better than the one I made for Weebl Bound. Contact me at Rein67@Charter.Net or Rygon on B.net (USEast) and Ill be sure to show you my other work.

Im pretty good at Map Properties. Triple overlaps n' such.

Note: My briefs are usually pretty long, about 6-7 boxes (Each box can hold 64 individual trigger actions). I also use sound, but I can probably work with whatever you put into the RpG.

I know tux is even more reluctant to join group projects than I am. (even just me and him) As for me the most I would do is help with bugs and problems you might have. I think the idea is really lame like Fakename kinda points out. I think you could have something much more powerfull with a develped plot line and game play plans, nothing stupid like the history of battle forums.

Sorry for double posting just decided I wanted to attach this map breif i did. Its only like 21 seconds and it is cut off real harshly but its pretty cool. In reality if i was going to use it i would continue the breif into something and proboly recut the wav to include about 5 more seconds in witch i could fade it off much more effectively.
