Sorry folks. Slifer's closed for now. :'( I dont know if I will ever reopen it. To view this site properly, you will need JavaScript enabled. For full features, use Internet Explorer. Tested to work fine in Firefox.

Please read the rules before posting.

Due to the recent problems with moderating, a special thread has been set up. Just click here and someone should get to your thread (often bumping doesnt help if the person who normally moderates you isnt on at all. Other mods will usually ignore the thread as they think it is taken care of. Posting in that thread will get their attention).

Feburary's Spill is finally out. Did I spell that right? I dont care. :P

 How Slifer Works (for newcomers to the genre)
« Thread Started on Jul 3, 2006, 9:38pm »

First off, if you are familiar with the 'new region' pokemon RPGs that seem to be popping up on forums, you probably dont need to read this. This is for people that don't understand the concept.




Slifer is a text-based, post-by-post RPG. It is a pokemon RPG set in the new region of slifer! You create a Character Profile and begin roleplaying in the Denman Lab.

Text Based

This means that almost everything is done with words. No fancy flash programs, damage systems or anything to install on your computer. This allows (and requires) literacy, as explained in the rules, so that threads are enjoyable to read and moderate.

Post by Post

One of the main rules of Slifer is that you do not powerplay other characters or things you do not control. Once you create your profile, you post in the Denman Lab. I'll use a thread by Will as an example, click here to read it.

This is how Slifer and sites like it work. Will posts that he approaches the lab and knocks, and one of the moderators comes and replys as Professor Wattle. Will alternates posts with the moderators, and controls his character. The Moderators control Professor Wattle, and basically everything else in the Slifer universe. The only thing you control is what happens to your characters, and your characters pokemon.

If you still don't understand, head on over to the Route One board and have a read of a few threads. :)

About the speculated HP7 release date:

HAH. 7/7/07. That would be weird.

Off topic for a minute... That's when my sister's getting married, and I'm the maid of honor. That would REALLY piss her off, too, since I'd have to leave in the middle of the wedding to get the book >.>

All Pokemon names, images, etc. are (c) The Pokemon Co. This forum is a fan-based forum and is not in any way affiliated with Nintendo, Game Freak, blah blah blah (The Pokemon Company). Non-Pokemon content (c) The Admin. No stealing, changing, editing, claiming of ownership or otherwise mutating this site, or my evil gingerbread children-lawyers will... Are you still reading? You really have too much time on your hands. Go save the world or something useful. Or join the site. That would be better. Pokemon sprites thanks to pe2k.com
