Forbidden Technique Competition

[JiMmIyZ7]

I was just thinking, whether we deny it or not, we all want our characters to be bad asses with a bunch of strong and forbidden techniques but there seems to be a rather large lack of said techniques so maybe perhaps we could have a competition to see who could create the best forbidden technique to be added to the site? I think it'd add a boost of excitement and create some interesting role play plus there'd be a lot of discussion relating to it. Thoughts?

First, I love the idea. Have the top 3 prices be to be allowed to go for one of the techniques.

The problem is however that Heero would need to have the final word on every suggestion as the techniques would be stronger (or maybe even far stronger) than staff normally deal with and knows how to balance. It would put quite a lot of pressure on heero to accept some of them even though maybe none of them works, or they would work but would need rework. So people really has to be prepared for NO on most of them.

It is however important that we give this time to develop before we push staff into start such a contest (if they would like it). Until the updates on the site is done and people have been allowed to create customs for a while again, to make sure the ideas aren't already coming or they actually get way to weak/strong in comparison.

Every technique is forbidden if used correctly. "Art of finger in ear" with a Kunai and explosive tag. Bam, frowned upon prank. Same with thousand years of death.

Though something like this would probably go in a list or unattainable jutsu just for peeps to stare at.

I could see this being an interesting way to bring customs back when they're ready to come back. And as emi pointed out it would be a bit difficult with balancing. And I do believe what neuro is saying as well, but if I understand what Jimmy is saying, it'd be for ati or event acquisition only?

My only personal problem with this is how flooded customs can get with stuff that's either right out of the anime/other animes without much thought, or stuff that has already been implemented in some way shape or form.

Basically, I like the idea, but I'm not sure if the headache would be worth the reward. When customs open, im sure we'll see a bunch of people trying to make techniques as strong as possible anyways. But it would be great to start some more roleplays and discussions and that is for sure. All I can really say tho is I like the idea, if you or someone else could come up with a better, maybe more airtight way to do this that'd be great and I can see it being really effective in what it's trying to do.

Apologies but I'm going to deny this suggestion. I have no intention to open the customs for forbidden jutsus when I don't see normal jutsus going through without issue. I'm actually slowly removing forbidden jutsus as they all fit in other sections. I do want more activity but that doesn't mean that it's going to be applied through customs. I want more events.
