Guys, I got this question. If you decide to change a character in game, for various reasons. What do you do in the forum? Do you change as well? Or do you simply have your account altered somehow? Personally, I am a player that wishes to try this game challenges with different personalities, and as I am unable to create more characters, I would have to stick with the Doji. But then again, I have some great time in the Crane Clan roleplaying in the forum. Wish that someone enlightened me into this :-)

But...I wish to roleplay here as a Crane. I mean, is there a need to change forcibly? Or play as an Ide in Facebook and as a Crane in the forums? Bear in mind that this is only a question, not something that I might be doing any minute now.

I think the general rule is that you need to be whatever you have in the game. I haven't talked to the higher ups about it, so don't quote me on it, but its been the general rule.
Also you can contact me and I can change your group for you.

In the Forum Information thread (starting on page 4) in the Read here first section, there was talked about it. And one Kuni player is now here on the forums a Daigotsu, while he still plays a Kuni in the game (a tainted Kuni who joined the Spider). So it seems to be possible to have here something different than on facebook.

The difference with Yukara is, if you look at her profile in game, and see a Kuni, you aren't looking at it very well.
She is the second most tainted, THE most infamous, and the second most dishonorable person in the game. She is the embodiment of Kuni Yori (which she mentions in her flavor text) in our setting.
moving from Kuni to Spider is a little easier to understand than moving from Crane to Unicorn and keeping your crane alignment.

So that means that both Facebook and forum game's are interconnected... Well in my opinion, those are two different things, since your actions in the facebook game have no actual manifestation in that one.

I think it's a convention to play on the forums with your facebook character, but I have a feeling that if you wanted to change your facebook character but still play Doji Mikado here no one would really care. Have fun and play the game the way you want to!

To be honest, I don't have the slightest intention to abandon Mikado in the forums ;-) I have some Clansmen I want to play with. :-P

Mikado, you're actually totally wrong. The forums and the game DO affect each other. Perfect example is on the boards, Kakita Kenshi recently rose a stink about the Shogun pretty largely. In response, the Dev team added missions regarding this. So keep that in mind. While you may be a crane here, you can RP that, but you're a unicorn on the game itself. You're strictly a crane for RP purposes, but you aren't allowed to have a Unicorn account without special circumstances and coming to talk it over with me first.

Yes, and I loving it, even I never talked in-game about it and so the devs have broken your forums rules on metagaming (like everyone who voted in game, because my character and I am not the same person).

... I think you're missing the point, Kenshi, its not about metagaming. Also this snipit taken from one of your posts: Yes, the shogun is an idiot not to put personal feelings aside and look for the best of the empire. I am glad now I have his enmity, people like that are disgusting (I think it would have been far better if people with his favour could do it instead the other way around, but I like it to see that it is possible to prevent folks from certain actions if they have enemies). Read more: rokuganee.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=news&action=display&thread=535&page=1#ixzz1G4T4BZJYThis could easily have been mistaken as being an IC statement as you referred to your character in the first person, as if he was speaking for himself. I know when I read it the first time I thought it was IC. Thereby, the devs perhaps would not consider their newest update as metagaming. More importantly however, I hope that you do not take this as proof that metagaming is condoned by the staff. Players should not metagame. Period. Just because Jay acknowledged the discussion on the boards does not mean he thinks we should all metagame. Lets just make that point clear right now.

And definitely not the place to make this discussion, Kenshi. It's already being resolved in an official manner. Stop bringing it up in random threads. I was just using it as one of the most recent examples of forum + game connectivity. You're just trying to start up a Metagame discussion again. Senshi, don't stoke the fire. First warning for you. Last warning for you, Kenshi. You guys have way similar names. Just sayin'.

Setsuro, figured that the game and the forums interconnect directly, and thus I deleted the Unicorn character, resuming back to the Crane. Anyway, it was an issue that was now resolved.
