How to Bungieball?

Alright you guys, we've seen a lot of great work from various people over the last day or so. Seriously, this is turning out great. However in order to preserve the quality of Bungieball we'll need to enforce some rules. These will include items such as how to design a character, special character exempt from specific rules, etc. Given the community sourced nature of Bungieball, we'll be using this thread to decide how to do things. We will be taking several queues from Polandball. (Obviously) [quote][u]Drawing the Ball:[/u] 1. Balls can not be perfect circles. Draw them "by hand", don't use a circle tool. 2. Similarly to #1, don't use straight lines everywhere. 3. Eyes should be white with a black outline, however you can change eye color for specific uses. (Ex. Make them red to show anger.) 4. Do not outline colors on the ball with black lines. The colors should not be separated. 5. Unless it's a "Special Character", do not add things onto the ball. Things like facial hair, hats, accessories, appendages, etc. are included here. 6. No pupils, limbs, mouths, wrinkles, ears, or facial hair allowed. (See Special Characters) 7. This is Bungie[u]ball[/u], not Bungieshape. Unless it's a special character, all characters must be Balls.[/quote] [quote][u]Ball Language:[/u] The majority of balls will use incorrect grammar. This can be shown by misspelling some words, dropping words entirely, rearranging sentences entirely, etc. Some Balls have specific types of language, or no issues at all. 1. Employees/Achronos/DeeJ/Bungie(The company) have correct grammar. They should speak normally. They are the only ons who do so. 2. The Flood should use common "Flood Sayings" or inane gibberish. However this is not required. All Flood dialogue should be kept short and VERY simple, rants being the exceptions. (However they should be more of a run-on sentence.) Aside from the Flood and Destiny, "Troll language" should not be used. This means no "trolololol"s.[/quote] [quote][u]Special Characters:[/u] Below is the list of special characters. Only Special Characters may break the rules of ball drawing. (In their specific way.) [u]1. Official Post DeeJ[/u] DeeJ goes from a normal ball with his standard avatar to a tall golden rectangle with a yellow septagon on his chest. He has two dots for eyes. (small white dots, no outlines, perfect circles) [u]2. Specific Forum Ninjas[/u] Non-descript Ninjas should just be a salmon or orange colored ball, however helmets/beards/hoods/etc. may be added to specify a specific Ninja if you cannot draw their avatar on their chest easily. [u]3. The Flood[/u] They should appear as [i]small[/i] blobs that are slightly triangular in nature. They should have three antennae (Two small ones just above the point between their eyes, and a larger one high on their forehead. Their appearance is inspired by the Flood's "popcorn" stage in Halo. [u]4. Plasma Eagle[/u] Plasma Eagle may have medium-sized wings on his ball, but not all the time. They may be drawn when he becomes physically aggressive in order to appear threatening. [u]5. Space Whale[/u] He should appear as a dead (regular) whale whose rotting gasses cause other balls to hallucinate into thinking that he is a ball who makes whale-puns. [u]6. Achronos[/u] He should have hair that sticks slightly out from his ball, as well as a pair of sunglasses. He is the only Ball allowed to have glasses. You can NEVER show his eyes. It should mimic his avatar. [u]7. Long Face[/u] 0__________0 should be drawn as a rectangular prism that is laid down on the ground length-wise. His eyes should be on either end, facing front ways. (Note: They should be regular eyes.) He accomplishes this through the use of _____ Physics.[/quote] Please comment on these rules. A more official illustrated post will eventually be created as things are added and the rules are refined.

  • I think it's worth noting that however oppressive this seems to newcomers, these aren't as strict as actual Polandball rules--I mean, they even keep a list of overused jokes that people aren't allowed to use.
