For those who don't know what a Round Robin is, it's basically several authors working independantly or together in the same continuity in order to tell either the same or seperate stories. Sometimes it can work, other times it can go to hell and back because of one authors doing something the others dislike and a rift occuring because of it.
I, however, don't plan for that latter: in order to prevent it, I'd like to take some control over who uses what characters and where they occur after I put down the first story (Hey, I can't suggest this without putting something in first, can I? =P). To do that, I'll want the contributers ideas, characters and where they happen sent over PM and I'll allocate them so someone doesn't use, say, Blue and kill him off in Goldenrod while at the same time he's fending off Giovanni in Viridian.
The reason I say where is because of my intial plot plan: basically, every game universe has collided and fused, either Nintendo only, if you want less chaos and to simplify the entire thing, or all videogame universes so we can have things like Mega Man fighting Specter (aka less confusion vs more awesome): those who participate's call. The only rule I'd like to have is no OCs (there's plenty of characters either way, including NPCs), and no apocalypses, localized (aka only Australia getting wiped out by a blast) or otherwise (e.g. Solar going supernova and wiping out Earth...), but if everyone votes against the rules, then eh, your call.
If this goes well, I look forward to everyone elses story :3
