I was thinking of spearheading a project that would take user created feds/characters/etc. and merge them into one usable database. I've already started adding my user created feds and workers (I have about 4 or 5 feds total ). Would anyone be interested in contributing to this type of project?

Hey man, I wouldn't mind adding a small fed with 10-15 workers at some point. I'd rather do it later on the the process though, because I need alot of other data in there first to compare my stats to, you know what I mean? I'm not very good at basing something off of a small amount of data.

I've got about 60 workers (including three Road Agents and Referees), I'd love to put them in to a project like this. Seems as though everyone's created guys are going to be quite 'upstatted' compared to CVerse and especially the surprisingly low FORC. I'd say that if indeed everyone's data has high stats, then really that's likely to be quite balanced anyway. Only problem I have is that I've been using a mostly CVerse pics, but I know I've used quite a few user-made pics from the render thread but don't recall whose - and I know that a lot of those guys want to at least be checked with before their pics are used in any 'release' - and rightly so!

Hey, I'm into this. Got some stuff I can throw in there.

[Carlzilla]

I'm not really looking to regulate what people can and can't do with their characters. Everyone is able to edit the data as they see fit after it's released anyway, so if they think someone is too high, they can change it. I just want a good base of workers and promotions and such to play with.

[Brotherfury]

this may be a stupid question, but how exactly do i make a addon (mod) for you to add to this project? I mean i have a bunch of created stuff and i just need to know what to do with it... right now its mixed with cornellverse. Broham

[Carlzilla]

Import it into it's own database then send that database to me to import to the OpenSourceVerse project. That would probably be the easiest way honestly.

Carlzilla, when did you join TEW? I thought you were with TNM7. I'm also with a wrestling card game RWG. You figure the math on that.

[Carlzilla]

Still am with TNM. TNM is better for storytelling, it's more of a tool than a game. TEW is more of a game to me, it's horrible for working stories with in my opinion.

[QUOTE=Carlzilla;225406]TEW is more of a game to me[/QUOTE] I'd certainly hope so, that's the intention! :D

[Moe Hunter]

So if I were to zip up my custom database, where would I send it to exacly?

[Carlzilla]

Good point, I never listed an address. carlzillagmail[dot]com

[DanB]

I love the idea of this! I presume, though, things like venues, TV Networks, PPV Carriers.. etc. will be in with the data? Otherwise, it'll end up getting absolutely huge if everyone started entering their own ones.

[Carlzilla]

Yeah, I've got all that taken care of. Just need the more creative parts, workers, promotions, etc. etc.
