10 years ago Of course, I could just leave it on HIP team members to submit their own titles (which I'd code up for them)-- double-usage of the word "title" for the title to call them for owning that title, and the title's localisation itself (e.g., "Project Balance").
It would be neat, but at the same time, I'm a hard-liner against pigeonholing folks, especially with the kind of HIP-shared collaboration that's going on these days (and that I only want to encourage more). Generally speaking: HIP's not a "my" project; it's a "we" project.
Any thoughts on whether the HIP dynasty should have a name other than just 'HIP' ?
I'm thinking straying from the Egyptian canon here is probably a good idea to clarify and encourage users to actually click on the dynasty shield and explore the dynasty tree.
The dynasty tree shall have a representative [dead] ruler, named as they are on the forums, for each HIP team member (presumably all at the same level of descendance from Isis on the tree, except those team members that are strictly limited to one sub-team that has a clear owner-- SWMH under Chris, basically, as everyone else has some sort of shared HIP role or a "de jure" status in their own right, and I don't want to imply any false groupings or hierarchy). Getting SWMH under Chris does help with the dynasty tree all displaying on a single screen without scrolling easily, though.
Dynasty CoA would probably just use plain template with sable/sable (all-black or alternately a black/white half-half contrast, maybe diagonally) and would be configured assuming ARKO's CoA properties.
Could go even further and give each HIP team member a custom titular title so that the localisation could read "Unholy Roman Emperor Meneth of Project Balance" or such things. I'd feel obligated to give everybody such a title, though, and that might be quite hard in certain cases.
