Timeline Stuff

[sunshinehistory]

Okay, we ask that everyone pop in here so that we can try and sort things out among the players and get the timeline up to date.

Basically, we have a lot of confusion over when things happened with certain characters, and to avoid that in the future we have a simple solution.

Please tell us!

What we need from you
Any Activity meme threads you want canonized with dates. (any without dates get the date the thread was started)

Any Test drive threads with dates (Again, any without dates get matched to the thread date)

Promotion ages and months. Academy Start, Genin, chunin, jounin, ANBU.

Relevant meetings or interactions that have been discussed and agreed upon but not played out. (examples: Kakashi and Gai's first meeting, Gaara losing his uncle and scarring himself, Tsunade agreeing to come back to Konoha at Minato's behest, Sasuke and Hinata's first childhood playdate. Anything that is relevant and needs noted!)

How this needs to happen! You give us the character's age, the month of the event, and what year you think it SHOULD be placed in. You don't have to give us the year, and we'll tell you what years we'd be adding everything to. You confirm or deny if that fits what you intended, we post.

That's all. We would like to hear back from ALL OF YOU. We need you to comment with this information to this post.

Thank you very much, and if you need help figuring out what information you need to give us, please contact either Pen or Skeren to help you sort out your details.

After this is sorted, anything that comes up may be commented directly to the timeline post for addition.

Gaara's timeline

But yes in regards to the example mentioned: Yashamaru's death has a canon year date (BGS 10); I set it in January because Rasa would have waited until Gaara turned six but likely no longer than that.

He becomes a genin in February of BGS4, becomes chuunin in June of BGS2 in the Kiri exams, and jounin some time in AGS1, though for now I've put that as happening in February because Kankuro is promoted then and the Kazekage processes the jounin nominations in batches.

[ninjasloveme]

EDIT TO TIMELINE: Shukaku is released against Sasuke in June BGS4 (Suna exams) instead of BGS2 (Kiri exams)

[not_thedragon]

Sasuke has no timeline. He exists in the void.

However on the off-chance he isn't allowed to exist in the void:

ACADEMY GRADUATION/GENIN PROMOTION -- BGS 4, Konoha Academy graduation in March

CHUUNIN PROMOTION -- BGS 4, Suna chuunin exams in June*

JOUNIN PROMOTION -- AGS 1, August/September (testing in August, promotion in September)

* This currently doesn't match with Gaara's timeline and needs to be sorted later.

[not_thedragon]

ACADEMY START DATE: BGS 8 @ 8 years old if starting in fall term, 7 if spring term

[tenten_san]

BSG 17: March - Born.

BSG 10: (Age 7) March - Tenten Enters Academy.

BSG 5: (Age 12) March - Tenten Graduates from the Academy

BGS 3: (Age 14) October - Sad Dads Talk with Kakashi

BGS 2: (Age 15) January - Promoted to Chuunin in Konoha Exams

I think that's it. Yes? Yes. Things to be added/edited later if they come up.

[sunshineapps]

regarding Sad Dads Talk with Kakashi --is that a TD thread? Or is that an upcoming thread in verse or messages? because if that's an upcoming thread, I will catch that when it happens in the comms. If it's a TD, when you get the chance, may I have a link to it? Thanks!

/shamelessly steals your dates

[knifependulum]

Here is Neji's timeline These are by age, but the specific years are vexing me ._.


For Nori-

YEAR 26: BGS 42:
October: Born

YEAR 31: BGS 37:
July: Enters Academy

YEAR 37: BGS 31:
July: Graduates

YEAR 42: BGS 26:
January: Chuunin Promotion

YEAR 56: BGS 12:
March: Staged 'death' and subsequent defection from Kumo

[morningpeacock]

Thank you!
Did we sort out the years in chat, or are we still needing to figure that out?

[gentledheart]

So I just realized Neji and Hinata were promoted in the same exam. We should talk about this and what it meant in House Hyuuga.

[morningpeacock]

Gai's timeline looks like this:

BGS 23 Academy Grad
BGS 21? 20? Dai's Death?? going to run this by Miro
BGS 19 Chunin Promotion
BGS 05 Team Gai formed
BGS 02 Team Gai promoted to Chunin

(everything else of relevance is on the timeline already & I am pretty sure I have no relevant Test Drive threads to add to the timeline)

[morningpeacock]

Note to self, add jounin promotion date

[awokentospring]

BGS 17: November 27 - born

BGS 10: March - Lee enters Academy

BGS 5: March - Lee Graduates from Academy

BGS 2: January - Promoted to Chuunin in Konoha Exams


.... I would be lying if I said I didn't steal this basically from Tenny, but I have absolutely no clue how to figure this out on my own! orz Besides, I think Lee would stay on-par with Tenten throughout most of the years.

[tenten_san]

Lee! Come to mama! ;w;

The only thing I might potentially change would be when they got promoted to Chuunin. Neji got promoted six months prior to the Konoha Exams. And it kinda makes me sad that Team didn't become Chuunins together.

[gentledheart]

Hinata's timeline, I will come back with Karin and Temari's once I finish getting them up to date.

[morningpeacock]

Ok! They don't need extensive timelines, but thank you for all the effort! Hinata's is so pretty!

[thebestuchiha]

Obito's Pre-game timeline is done!!!!!

[gentledheart]

I think you were sleepy because you have Obito meeting himself and entering the Academy twice, once in February and then again in September.

[abileunaspada]

BGS 15 - Born (April)
BGS 10 - Enrolled in Kirigakure Academy
BGS 7 - Taken to Konoha (April) (Presumed dead to Kirigakure)
BGS 7 - Enrolled in Konoha Academy
BGS 4 - Graduated to Genin
BGS 1 - First Chuunin Exams Attempt (January) (Sunagakure exams)
BGS 1 - Second Chuunin Exams Attempt (June) (Kumogakure exams) (Caused a huge mess with Kirigakure finding out about her being alive)
Game Start - Promoted to Chuunin (Iwagakure exams)

THAT SHOULD all be correct but please let me know if something doesn't add up!

[morningpeacock]

Thank you! I'm working on updates now, so I'll let you know if I find any issues!

[noboatbigenough]

Finished Kisame's timeline!

It got wordy, sorry (and now edited with jounin promotion date!)

I think everything is mostly set, except for things that would need to be talked out with players of other potentially-appable characters.

Juugo's is all set too

[morningpeacock]

I will probably condense the words for the main timeline, but it looks fabulous! Thank you muchly!

[notveryspecial]

Well, I'm reasonably certain my characters existed before the game but if you expect anything more than that you vastly over estimate my ability to organize things.

[morningpeacock]

The goal is to better and more consistently enable backtagging and figuring out pre game-year cr, so academy and promotion ages would be ideal if you are up to providing those (like which of the exams gave her chunin status, and then you can figure out if you knew someone from the exam).

I don't need or expect a timeline of any length. The people who provide that do so for their own sake.

Really what we want is what you have done ingame: test drive or meme threads considered canon.

[lostmarauder]
