Title: New Kage Election
Post by: Cedie on June 12, 2016, 04:08:37
Good day Shinobis!!!

In lieu of the previous unsuccessful Kage election, we decided to organize another one to keep the hype of this forum while the developers are busy doing their parts. Our servers are now more stable, hence a private server for election participants is made possible to avoid interruption.

General Requirements
The minimum requirements for the aspiring Kage are the following.
 •Must have at least 6 months of membership on or before June 25, 2016.
 •Total time spent online of 5 days on or before June 25, 2016.
 •Has a computer capable of running the game at 30FPS.

Election Tests
The three stages of election will follow the previous format.
 •Popularity Test - An atypical voting that involves strategic election using a poll and personal messaging.
 •Mental Ability Test - A written examination to test the participants' ability in calculation, situational analysis, abstract reasoning, decision making and etc.
 •Game Proficiency Test - A stage allowing participants to show off their gaming skills by battling each other.

**Mechanics for Popularity Test will be given on June 25, 2016.
**We shall arrange dates for each stages/tests with respect to the availability of both the participants and the moderators.


Share this news to your aspiring friends!! Summertime mania!

I don't agree with the rule about having to have 60fps.
I could kick most of your butts with 30fps, as long as you're good at the game why should your specs matter.
Hell, if you can pass the exam with low fps it should be even more of a reason for you to be kage.

Tbh 30fps is very playable. I guess it's so people can't complain that they were disadvantaged by their low fps maybe?

It's probable I wont have my gaming pc for the in-game exam, yet I still believe I could perform just as well on a laptop with lower fps.
If somebody has made it all the way to the physical exam I'm sure they'll have the dignity not to blame their fps.

The fps limit is not to protect you from complaining. Is to protect others from complaining. When you have low fps, you lag. If you are good, you may win with low fps, but the other player's skills won't help them against a person who teleports.

Teleports are caused by internet lag afaik, not by having a lower FPS.
What FPS could impact though is how fast you'll run (running at 60 with lower fps is slower than someone else running at 60 with 60 fps)
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Warping 'teleporting' only occurs when the user is experiencing ping (internet) lag. Fps really has no effect on anyone but the user himself, and it's a negative effect.

It's not a huge difference, but still noticeable on longer distances.
It's like like it'll appear as running at 40 or someshit, but more like 55~ ish.

@Nova There is no such thing, your running speed is constant no matter what your FPS is.

@Cedie 60 FPS shouldn't be a requirement, at least 30 FPS is what you should be going with.

lol, sorry manuster. 3 months is too short, that means thousands of players can join, including those who just come and go. We are not sure how dedicated as Kage these people could be.

In the narutoverse its different for every village.
Some are very strict about how they  allow into the village let alone rule it. Others like hidden leaf accept the people that chose to live there. And if there deemed worthy by the counsel of elders can become  influential  or even kaga.

Well I believe it all depends on how the village is governed and who governs it heck if it's decided by a village council then forget about it but if it's decided by votes then I guess you'll stand a chance but I recommend starting at the village you plan on ruling like me running for title of Shock Kage XD but again just be super skilled and well loved and you'll be selected as Kage wherever you go

And then ditch it again after 2 days.

In a sense that is true, but they're not actively participating in the community.
Same way with people such as StrawhatSeyi & Hypsandr making "I have returned posts / I will stay active now posts" only to go inactive after 1-2 days again.
Inactive people won't be popular, and they may just end up wasting the kage rank (if they stay inactive they can get demoted, but I don't see why someone who isn't participating in the community should have the right to lead them.)

If you only check once every few months you're not active, and shouldn't deserve leading active & loyal members of the project.
In my honest opinion.

Would it be bad for a newer member to run for kage if he had the requirements?
I have been registered for 6 months + and I'm sure I could get the online time before june 25th.

Though, I'm not sure if that would be recommended

I think it is time to announce that I am going to run for kageship. After I saw, who seek for this role, I have decided to nominate myself in order to save everybody. If I get elected I promise I am going to raise the meat industry and creating more opportunity for the shinobis in the village. Furthermore, I will abuse with my power to make sure everything goes as I wish. I will strenghten our power in order to keep everybody safe. I will improve society by sending poor into their deaths. I will improve our society by giving opportunities to poor and less skilled people in the shinobi forces. Finally, I will abuse with my power to eleminate the other villages and rule the world. I would use my rank to bring world peace for everybody. I will make the Shinobi world great again!

Thank you people, and don't forget! If you vote for me you vote for your future.

I'm still bothered by the requirment of time spent online on the forum. Surely, I can understand the requirment for game performance and for account history (meaning it has to be about half year old from now on), alas the "5 days online" is making me a little bit upset. And I won't hide the fact that is because I can't participate. I'm an honest person in those matters, be it right or wrong to do.

My argumentation against this requirment are a couple of facts, that determine this requirment to be "sketchy" at best.

ad. 1 - Cedie said himself that you can stay on forum as long as you want, but after a time it stops counting your activity. Most of us idle on forum and participate in shoutbox chat. Thus our time is not counted towards the activity.

ad. 2 - In regard to the previous argument, due to the sketchiness of time-online counting mechanics, the "five days online" requirment seems to be unjust from the core. Moreover - what does it prove? I wish not to be rude about it, however it looks like a fake requirment that could somehow determine ones activity on forum. Remember however - there are people who will not loiter around the forum, posting trash posts, thus popping up their online timer, and there will be people who just come and go, leaving important feedback in matters that actually will cause some impact on the game.

ad. 3 - As the requirment of "your account needs to be half year old - at least" is quite understandable, to prevent potential side accounts from popping out before the election, the online time is merely a nuisance as mentioned in ad. 2. Dedication is one thing, but loitering around and doing nothing - is something tad bit different.

ad. 4 - As far as I know and as far as I can measure, right me if I'm wrong, but with these conditions there seems not to be enough of applicable candidates. Thus creating a typical logic error in the very core of the election rules.

In conclusion, this post was written to prove that the "time online" requirment is more of a nuisance, than a control mechanism. I value your reasoning Cedie and I respect your choices both as a human being and as a moderator, yet if I do not agree with something, I'd like to discuss it in the open field. I'd like to know more about it from other players and Cedie himself. Under no circumstances this post wasn't written to undermine anyones position or harass/offen anyone. I just believe we can improve our situation.

An in extention, if this errata I propose passed, due to the fact I fullfill every other requirment...

I wish to candidate for Kinzokugakure no Sato chair of Kage.

Thank you for reading through this post.

Well it also prevents people who create profiles and abandon the site to come in and run for Kage. There are people who make accounts and have only been online once or twice, just because they made the account 6+ months ago doesn't mean they were active and thus not making them fit for Kage as they were not part of the community. IMO that's why I think that requirement was made.

Even if they do... I believe they still are viable candidates. SLO has a slow development speed, thus it is really hard to try and remain all-time-active in most cases. Why stay at one place and keep loitering, when you can just go around, while keeping in touch? With all due respect, but since I left and came back, not much have changed.

I've changed my mind. I realized it would not be fun to start on the top, therefore I withdraw my application for kageship.

To qualify for the position of Kage, it must be a native of the village  or anyone can be Kage (any village), regardless of where it comes from?

I think it is time to announce that I am going to run for kageship. After I saw, who seek for this role, I have decided to nominate myself in order to save everybody. If I get elected I promise I am going to raise the meat industry and creating more opportunity for the shinobis in the village. Furthermore, I will abuse with my power to make sure everything goes as I wish. I will strenghten our power in order to keep everybody safe. I will improve society by sending poor into their deaths. I will improve our society by giving opportunities to poor and less skilled people in the shinobi forces. Finally, I will abuse with my power to eleminate the other villages and rule the world. I would use my rank to bring world peace for everybody. I will make the Shinobi world great again!

Thank you people, and don't forget! If you vote for me you vote for your future.

OOC: I would pick the dust kageship


with ideas like that how can you not run for Führer! kage! #makeSLOgreatagain

I am not going to be a missing-nin/rogue nor part of Kata if I will be elected Kage. I will change the path and become completely devoted to the village I lead.

"•Must have at least 6 months of membership on or before June 25, 2016"
;_;

"Total time spent online of 5 days on or before June 25, 2016"
;_; ;_;

" •Popularity Test"
;_; ;_; ;_;


6 months is a looooong time...why not halve it?

lol, sorry manuster. 3 months is too short, that means thousands of players can join, including those who just come and go. We are not sure how dedicated as Kage these people could be.
Question: What's the point of this election? If it's to pull out potential kage *this early*, then that's practically a waste of people's time in itself, as the actual villages will more than likely not be arriving any time soon. And even if you were to be putting up a proper village, with all of the necessary functions as to make it governable, the *most likely* candidate would be that of the Hidden Hill, correct?

What I'm trying to get across here is the following: Stop blowing your loads early, decisions such as this are simply too difficult to stick by/reinforce later on down the road -- and it WILL be "Later on down the road" that even the *base villages* actually come into play; this doesn't count in when SLO'll have all the *other* proper systems worked out to Vreg's liking and approval. By the time all of these systems are functional, who knows how many of you guys will even be 'able' to run a full-time position like that anyway? If you're going to have elections for kage, it'd make by and large more sense to run them Per-Village-Launch; otherwise this current series of votes is just absurd to be holding.


Unsure, entering to see how far I'll get.
Might run for Hill if there are no valid candidates that I think deserve it.

This to me, makes more sense than any other candidacy atm. *If* any of the villages were to be launched first, it'd more than likely be the Hidden Hill, as that village has simply had the most time and effort poured into it above all the others (most of which are still on the drawing board in terms of basic concepts). Now, *if* you intend to launch the Hidden Hill within the next few weeks, then yes, it's advisable to hold an election for a Hidden Hill Kage. And if we're presuming that it is indeed a legitimate announcement, then I wish the best of luck to any and all hoping to become prime Hidden Hill Kage material.

The rest of this might as well be party-horns blown half a year before the birth-day celebrations.

@dragon6624 I really dislike how you leave the forum for months then come back with an egotistical comment, acting like you're hot shit, trying to put people down.

I mean, come on. So what there will be kage's before the village is released? It'll give a sense of order on the update and have somebody to organize shit.

After being gone for months you can't really claim to be part of this project or decide what is right for the community.
Not a single person objects to these elections as they're actually pretty fun.

Take your head out your ass

While it was nice of you to leave a ref for my convenience, but you really didn't need have bothered Mars ^_^). I check the forums on a weekly basis, I just don't prefer to mark my territory on every single post that gets made. And while we're on that subject, there's a question you should really think about: Does making a reply (even the most useless among them) on every thread count as *substantially more active* than those of us who prefer only to speak when we feel it is necessary to do so?

If by "somebody to organize shit", you mean the granting of either substantially influential (such as in the case of America) titles to those undeserving of it, or completely worthless titles that waste everyone's time -- then yeah, I guess you could say "somebody to organize *shit*".

And my main gripe against these elections is that they *are* supposably official; if they were the usual "fun", I need not have worried about them and you'd need not feel so...threatened.

By the way, thanks for your self-made instructions manual down there, I'll remember them well the next time I tell someone of your resemblance to do the same.

You really only can learn from the masters, can't you?

Be that as it may, why is it official at all? I can understand Moderator, Dev, PvP and Org/Clan ranks -- what's the purpose of this officially is what I'm asking.

I do have one question about this though - from my understanding, one unlocks their second chakra mix the when they reach Jōnin level. Seeing as kage is higher than Jōnin, does this mean all 11 kage will spawn with their second chakra nature (and possible chakra mix) instantly unlocked?

You unlock your second chakra nature/whatever when you're at Jonin level skill, not jonin level rank.
As far as I know, an in game title will not give you buffs or power so I highly doubt it.

Actually, it is aimed towards being a Kage to both the forum and in game. However, since the game is not fully released yet, forum Kage is more applicable. There will be accompanying duties when you become a forum Kage, much more if both a forum and game Kage.

Those duties being...? No offence intended here, but both responses were quite vague. Plus, it'd probably give potential candidates a better understanding of what they'd be doing if they...knew what they'd be doing.

idk what duties either, i thought it was literally just for the title as there is nothing u can really do in game yet, and idk how u can have kage duties on the forum.

Don't worry, guys, if you think someone is not deserving for whatever reasons, there is a way to objectively express that through voting.

Rewards, duties and responsibilities will be announced officially on 25th.

@Mars  You went a little overboard on @dragon6624 there, I know he doesn't post as much as you do, but whenever he does it's always a quality post. I don't think he was trying to put people down, rather he was criticizing the Kage elections which I can agree with to a certain extent.

@dragon6624 As you may or may not know, a lot of role-play goes on in our forum with all the clans and organisations, and sometimes this transcends into the game. Think of these Kage elections as the same thing, it's more of a role-play forum based community event rather than actual Kage elections as they will be in future SLO. These forum Kages won't have the same functions as later SLO Kages either, and most likely by the time we can call SLO an MMO various Kage re-elections will have taken place. Basically our current Kage elections are more about becoming part of the Hidden Village Kage group (not title, although each Hidden Village Kage will also get their respective village's title).
