Yah know how much chinese crap in mixed into the narutoverse? Like, Five Symbol Seal/Unseal are thefive Chinese elements (Jiraiya/Orochimaru) and the 12 hand seals are the 12 Chinese zodiac... and I think a few taijutsu moves are based on Chinese... WELL HECK! Might Guy is Bruce Lee+Jackie Chan...

Qyp Anyways, Kouri is the boss right now... and I should help her make a dating system... if crew are not already making one... That wasn't on my agenda at all... as cheer said, it would be difficult to implement. Well if you can think of a good way that would be appreciated I guess.
And as for the Chinese influences well a lot of Japanese culture is influenced by China too, don't forget biggrin I'm pretty sure the japanese use the zodiac too, so i don't think they would call it the Japanese zodiac there...

Hrm... many things influence Japanese... Orochi is similar to the western Hydra and biblical 7 headed dragon in Revelations. Anyways... Nara period..."...According to the ancient Japanese book Nihon Shoki, the name "Nara" derived from the Japanese verb narasu "to flatten"..." And that is why Nara clan is... Nara clan... Also, that period centered around VILLAGES...-hinthint-

Nara is also the name of a prefecture biggrin
I'm pretty sure that most of the surnames in Konoha, at least, are derived from famous feudal surnames, eg. Yamanaka.
Haruno is an exception... then again... Haruno is not a ninja clan...

Anyways, because the Ridukou Sennin is basically the messiah in the narutoverse, I would say that Naruto was born about 2000 years after The Sennin's death...
So... I will say that Naruto was born Spring 1999 Ninshuu no Kokugen (Time of the Shinobi Sect) Which is the over all gathering of all those eras I mentioned to you Kouri in the Q/A & S thread... So, let's say that naruto died at 75...? That would be 2074 NK (TSS) And then... how many years would it be now since then? 2600s or 2700s?
So, hrm, so like, Five Masters Era, Fifth Dawn Era (If they were even around long enough to have an ERA...) and you get the idea...
Before Sage of Six Paths, history is mostly a blur... but, it would be called the Time of Barbarians... Iteki no Kokugen. Or something like that...
So, that's the basic idea, so far... would that work? Years and seasons right?

I don't think you would have an Akatsuki era, so you definitely wouldn't have a fifth dawn era. You wouldn't even have a Masters era biggrin
hmmm I was thinking something a bit more simple. i wasn't planning to delve into history... sweatdrop
The thing is, I don't really care about the year system in terms of history, I only care about it in terms of whether it can work xd
Though we could say that the years reset after the most recent great ninja war. so it would be 0 in the year after the end of that and so on... I do support having a year, just not very big numbers @__@

Well, I am just using history as an idea of what the current date is... then, I will figure out the system...
But, Shinobi Wars just seems... HARD... I will exclude the eras, and all that crap... and just call it Ninshuu no Kokugen (Time of the Shinobi Sect). And you could have the overall date... as a device to stop confusion, and then have something like... "5th year of piece" or "11th Year of the 9th Shinobi War" "2nd Year of (some crazy group trying to take over)"
And so, we know whats happening, and the year. Thats all we need right?
So over all you would have...
"[Main Forum blahz] 2693, Winter, 2nd Year of Fifth Dawn Invasion"
Or something like that...

I don't even know what eras you are alluding to here. sweatdrop
I meant like...
"After the most recent Great Shinobi War, representatives of all shinobi nations met and agreed that for the good of the world, peace must be maintained. They made many agreements such as on trade and culture exchange, including the adoption of a new calendar. Thus a new era was born, optimistically called the "Heiwa" [peace] Period."
[>.> ignoring the fact that the heiwa period is still in existence in japan today... ssshhhh]
And like, depending on how long ago the most recent great shinobi war was, it can be oh I dunno year 50 of the Heiwa Period or something lol.

Alrighty... so... starting off small... and I suppose the time skip will cause a restart? Considering you lot are going nuts over it...
Oh well, I suppose of each time period has at least 50-100 years, it shouldn't be a waste of time... And the Shinobi Wars shouldn't included in the dating system, because it is taboo, or something... So, the gaps between time periods are the wars, or like, things like the Masters...?
I dunno, the more I think about it, the harder it gets... TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING SIMPLE IS HARD.

It won't, we'll just add 2 to the year? lol.
I resent you saying that we're going nuts stare
xd You're way overthinking things. Who cares about those special events. They just happened in "Year 27 Heiwa Period" or "Year 48 Heiwa Period" or whatever. XD
And I was just thinking of one gap. I hadn't thought that far into the past. For all I know they could have never proclaimed new periods... or they could have proclaimed 50...
You haven't even gotten to the crux of the matter which is how to make villages advance smoothly along the time frame.
Trying to set deadlines such as 3 days one time period isn't that good of an idea because sometimes circumstances change, and with more people, and more circumstances getting in the way, you just get prolonging.
Personally, I was thinking that "co-op" missions, that is missions with people in different villages cooperating, would happen in a separate subforum/thread, and it would be treated as a different time frame to the rest of the village RP, which would still go on.

Kills 666 I do not get this whole system Try reading it once over first. It gets easier once you start RPing. That's why we make you guys start as students. You learn as you RP wink
Basically, you just have to understand the concept of "checks" and "modifiers". The rest is just fluff.

You should know I am a good rper but these guilds based on states are in my mind very dumb. States are for games and beting nothing more.

I suppose a game system isn't for everybody, but it's how we roll wink We've been rolling like this for the past 5 years. What I find is that it prevents god mod you know?

A guild is not a game. You can do things in a guild which you could never do in a game based on stats. Like a gennin can beat a kage in a regular guild or even this guild in many ways. You can not stop godmoding
