don't play with me 'cause you're playing with fire |
Seeing as my main character is without a klan atm! I'm going to go ahead and setup a new DDDB klan. My thinking is this one will be called DDDBバベル. The Japanese characters mean Babel, same as Shinjuku Babel, which is where the hometown will be. The "Babel" part is also a play on words of such, referring to the klan chat channel! Basically this will be a no bullshit open chat klan, so Babel seems appropriate (Babel is also a verb, look it up if you don't know it)
Anyone from anywhere is welcome, and free to speak in whatever language they like. Though for now only Japanese and a minimum number of English/Latin characters seem to be available fonts wise (well last I checked)
I'm also planning to make everyone who joins a Sub Master. This way any klan mate can add a player they know / come across to the klan on the spot. Sub Masters can also kick members I think (honestly they shouldn't be able to in my opinion) ...so the only downside is you might get accidentally kicked now and then by a careless Sub Master. If so we'll add you back asap, but please try not to kick players because it momentarily lowers the klan level. No player will be officially kicked for any other reason than spamming complete nonsense into the klan channel at rapid fire speeds for long durations of time. Possibly Sub Masters can't kick other Subs, so we may be all set, but If some player takes it upon themselves to delete everyone but the Master some day, I will have to reconsider the all Sub policy (there wouldn't likely be a way of knowing which player did it afaik)
Finally, this isn't necessarily a temporary klan, but it isn't the DDDBジャンプ(Jump) klan. If there is large demand at some point I'll make the Jump klan again home-towned in 3rd for beginner support. Spill overs from Jump will then have to join Babel (if it ever got to be that popular)
So in conclusion, you'll have to make the journey to Babel in order to join the klan via the Babel Terminals. If someone can see you online (in their friendlist for example) you won't have to. This isn't so hard these days. Around Act 3 or 4 you'll get 5 sample Ariadne's Threads... at that point I recommend homepointing in Babel and using the threads to teleport back to 3rd (they only go to places around 3rd -- 'cause they're samples) ...You might also make the journey before completing Act 3... you're half way there by the time you finish up in the Inugami/Shikigami pass. On the plus side, there are very few Babel klans, so finding the advert should be easy. Also it's much less of a burden to the Master to keep an advert posted in Babel.
I won't be able to make it to Shinjuku until the war event resets itself after Midnight tonight. The Babel klan key is pretty expensive, but I'm pretty well loaded these days, so it shouldn't hurt too much.
In the meantime, please discuss these terms, and let me know how you feel.

Being the most important can't be seen in the eyes |
The "Babel" part is also a play on words of such, referring to the klan chat channel! Basically this will be a no bullshit open chat klan, so Babel seems appropriate (Babel is also a verb, look it up if you don't know it) The Language Arts Nazi in me wont let me let this go... When spelled "babel," it can only be a noun. "Babble" is the verb-form, though both spellings can be used to denote idle chatter/talking, but in this case Babel is just a homophone to "babble," though "Babel" is usually pronounced "bay-ble."

But isn't the old trope about the Tower of Babel and all. I think babble is more like baby babbling. I still think babel makes sense... so call it a pun if you prefer (despite the fact the Babel part is in kana so it can swing either way technically!)

I pulled five armor tops from the Ueno war lottery. That'll pay for the klan key. The god's smile upon us I guess

Nothing is ever too far away from Babel in IMAGINE. That's why it's an ideal place to park your klan. To get there from 3rd, you just take the only exit out of Suginami into Nakano. Then once in Nakano take the only exit out, and now your in Shinjuku Babel

I've been seriously considering joining this Klan but only if there are any active European members or at least members that can play with someone in that timezone.
Thanks.

Does that imply whining cookies or something of the likes?

If I could write kanji (is it kanji?) I would post my name. :)
We could arrange a meeting place in the babel if you are there.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm sure to look into it, I'm getting really tired of logging everyday and having no one to do dungeon runs with.
