Let's Try This Again...
10 years ago
What do you plan on doing with all the rope and that ballgag in you hands?
There seems to be a misunderstanding here. Make sure you guys are reading the whole journal please. ;P
And If I messed up at any point, I apologize. But let's clear the air here...
First off, let me announce again that I am planning to start streaming Chrono Trigger next week and each stream I do from that point on will be Chrono Trigger until it's complete. Not sure how many sessions it will take, but I plan on playing it until the end and hopefully you guys will join me on the stream whenever you can. :)
My Twitch channel can be found here: http://www.twitch.tv/jessie_lockhart
For right now, until the stream starts, what I need from you guys is some help with naming the characters. In many classic RPGs, especially in the 90's, you the player has the option to rename the characters in your party. Now, I could simply do that myself, but I want to make this a little bit more interactive for you guys and let you have the opportunity to name the characters. All you need to do is this:
-Send me a note or an email with your choice name for each character (email: jessie_all_tied_up@hotmail.com)
(I want an equal amount of options to choose from for each character and the only way I can do that is if you give me a names for all the characters that are playable)
-The names are limited to a maximum of 5 characters (letters and numbers). It's a bit limiting, I know, but that's how the developers made it. I can't change that. You can tweek your choice to fit into five characters, like "DVant" (Deviant) or "Lkhrt" (Lockhart)
-In the note, give me the actual name of the character with your choice for what I'll rename that character right next to it
(For example... Crono: Dude or Marle - Lady or something like that)
-You can only give me one option per character. No multiple options for a single character. Just one.
-I need names for ALL of the characters that are playable, not just the ones you like.
-Please refrain from using anything profane, like "A Penis" or something else like that.
-If you pick a name that's already been given to me by someone else, I'll ask you to give me a different name.
-When there's about a day or two left before I start streaming, I'll pick the best 3,4, or 5 options and post them in polls for you all to vote on. The winning name will be the name used for that character.
-Voting for each name will last right up until the last minute just before I name the character. After that, voting will stop. In the event of a tie, I will choose between the tied names. So, the more clever and/or fun the name, the better chance it has to be selected for voting as well as selected in case of a tie. But don't think too hard on it.
I would really appreciate a lot of support for this. I don't want to have to just pick the names myself because there weren't enough options. That's boring. I can do that in a casual playthrough. I want you guys to have the fun of picking the names. K?
Even if you can't catch the stream or even intend to watch the recordings I post on my YouTube account, I still want your participation. Please?
I will at least announce the winning names in future journals so you know if any of your entries won.
I may do a prize, but if I do it will be something minimal like buying a sketch or something. No promises though.
If you don't know any of the characters or need a refresher, here's a picture of them as well as descriptions for each one:
*WARNING! Possible spoilers involved, though minimal

From left to right: (based on the picture linked just above)
Ayla: Badass cavewoman from 65 Million BC. She is a bit sexualized with a flirty style. Likes to use her muscles for most of her attacks.
Robo: Well-mannered, yet bruiser of a robot from the bleak future of 2300 AD. Utilizes a variety of physical and technological attacks and is also a strong healer.
Lucca: Scientific genius and inventor as well as Crono's best friend from the present time of 1000 AD. Utilizes fire based attacks and bombs and rocks an awesome pistol. WONDERSHOT HYPE!
Marle: Mysterious girl with a link to the royal family of the present of 1000 AD. Tomboyish and a bit of a cheerleader. Rocks a crossbow, Ice based attacks, and is the primary healer and suooort.
Crono: The game's silent protagonist and all-round badass hero from the present of 1000 AD. Comes from a rare breed known as "ginger heroes" (Thanks Pat) and is proficient with a katana for a variety of weapon based attacks as well as lightning based attacks.
Frog: Galant swashbuckling amphibian from the middle ages of 600 AD. An excellent swordsman boasting some weapon based attacks as well as water based attacks and some proficiency at healing.
There is also one other optional character you encounter later in the game and a mandatory naming of a special vehicle you acquire just past the midway point of the game. I will ask for naming options for the vehicle a week in advance of encountering it as well as the option to decide if we get the optional party member or not and if we do get them, what their name will be. Savy?
I hope that clears things up for everyone. So please send in your choices, or I will sick Rarity on you!
