CAP To-Do List

Status
Not open for further replies.


Introduction:

This is CAP's list of all things that need to get done as well as an archive of past things that have been done in CAP. Whenever something needs to get done, you can post in this thread and I'll update this post with it so that someone can take it on and take care of it. If you don't accomplish something you've said that you'd do in a couple of weeks, it is entirely possible that it will be reassigned to someone else. This is especially true in the case of something that is time-sensitive, like a PR update to an on-site article.

Before R_D can snipe anything else, I'm taking the server article.

EDIT: Adding the Connection Guide to my reservations now.

I can probably add the new moves to the server, but you'll need to make a change to allow them in past gens I think. I have a few ideas about movepool construction which depending on the result of discussions may result in quite major changes, but we could just go with a system similar to the current one if the rest of the process is ready first. Not worth holding the restart up for it. I'll try and get the thread up today. I'll also help keep the server page updated with any changes since we've not got anything certain on it yet.

If we're including less urgent things to do, lets add set up the process for the pre-evo side project. Worth looking at other aspects of flavor too.
 
Though it probably doesn't need any real changes, the EnCAPlopedia might need updates to reflect the new pages/guides being created for the new generation.

That's good. DW just made a quickie thing for that page that I'll HTML and upload today, but it will need to be updated once we get a firm on-site download link and such.

Yeah, sure. I'll add it.

The stickies in general need a lot of work, but those are pretty low priority when we have a CAP project going on. I don't think it matters nearly enough to go on the to-do list quite yet. Thanks for bringing it up, though.

Cool. I'll coach you on what needs to get done once you get a thread up.
 
Updated this with the CAP pre-evo entry being finished. For those too lazy to read the OP, that means that we will be including the pre-evo material directly into CAP1. This has been endorsed by all CAP mods, the CAP1 TL, and the CAP1 ATL.

  • It has come to my attention we should have an official "Typing Discussion" Post (or even just a section descriping it) since we presently don't have one, and each one is manufactured individually. I'm willing to take this up.

    - - - - - -

    Description:

    Typing Discussion

    This thread will be posted after the concept assessment to allow the community to give opinions on typing. Typing is of utmost important especially in the 5th Generation and for this reason both the primary and secondary typings will be discussed in tandem. Poll-jumping will not be allowed, however specific benefits of a given combinations interactions with moves and strategies is permissible. The Topic Leader should propose a few general qualities he wants (Offensive or defensive STABs, type synergies, etc.) based on the results of the concept assessment. The type will not be decided in the thread, but the Topic Leader will select from a slate of type combinations advanced in the thread before moving onto the Typing Poll.
 
Are we going to add CAP-created abilities to the server so the CAPS can use them? Scylant's Mountaineer, Fidgit's Persistant, and Collosoil's Rebound are replaced with "(No ability)" in the PO server.

That means that they haven't been implemented/figured out yet.

That answers my previous question then.
 
Where r u in the cap process i just joined and am willing to help to the best of my abilities. :)
The forum is currently in between projects, there's usually a gap of a few months between each new CAP. In the meantime you're best off familiarising yourself with the process and the metagame, allowing you to make meaningful contributions to the next round.
