Well, currently I have two ideas to write down. I am writing them down, but I am not planning to launch them until my previous idea is wrapped up and has a bow stuck on top. But, best to have these ideas exit my brain before they are terminated.


==User of the Month==
This is a very small idea, and not nearly as big as a story serial or the Guild of Bulborbs. However, I was thinking, what if user would every so often vote for who they think should be the user of the month. In the end an admin will collect the votes, and then announce the winner. Then the admin would put a small box with the "User of the Month"'s picture (their avatar picture, like my [[Peach Bulborb]] or The President's President picture) and then some date extolling the accomplishments of the user. Users can achieve User of the Month more than once, and in a row. Users (obviously) can't vote for themselves.

==Pikmin Fanon's Explorer Group==
This has gained inspiration from somewhere else, but has been modified a bit.  


The '''Guild of Bulborbs''', a group that is dedicated to helping improve the wiki.
''Due to the discovery of the Pikmin Planet leaking to the media, fleets of explorers have approached the planet hoping to find treasure and fame. One ship, the ''S.S. Explorer'', has established a permanent space station orbiting the planet.  


== About ==
This space station, called the ''Pikmin Fanon'', boasts living quarters, market space, and two large, glass domes that host a variety of plants. One of these has a wide variety of Pikmin, and scattered around in it are informational computers that have a log on any kind of Pikmin. The other dome has specimens of nearly every species discovered for scientific research.


The Guild of Bulborbs is a group of users that all work together to improve the wiki. Users who wish to join must first make a request to the Spotty Bulbear to join the Guild. If he/she approves, the Spotty Bulbear will present the user with an apprentice guild sig of the type they qualify for and wish to be (for example, if a user applies for the duties of an Apprentice Red Bulborb, they should not be made an Apprentice Orange Bulborb).  
Hocotate Freight now opens the ''Pikmin Fanon'' to the public, offering financing and an exploration ship to anyone who will dock and live at the ''Pikmin Fanon'' and then go down to planet and explore for the good of science (and wealth).''


=== Requirements ===
Users would start with a rocket ship, a suit, and a name (Captain _____). From there, what happens is up to them!


A few requirements exist for anyone who wishes to join the guild:
Users might explore for treasure, logging new Pikmin and enemies they find on the way. Or they might become thieves, never giving anything back to Hocotate and misusing the Pikmin. However, watch out, the police just might catch you!


*Must be a registered user
The possibilities are endless, as you shape your own story through your writing!


*Must not have a bad history (trolling, spamming, etc.)
Basically, whenever users choose, they can get back onto the explorations, and then tell other users what happens through a captain's log. Everything would be down on pages, nothing like a real video game, but users could discover a new pikmin species or a whopping 20,000 Pokos worth of cash, all in a days work!


*Must be active
Of course, we should have admins regulate. They could be explorers too, but they would take off that hat and put on the police one when needed. A few rules would be: (1) No ADs (absolute dominations). While you may discover a titan boss and beat it, don't become dominant over all of Hocotate and rule the entire world! (2) Log what you discover. Areas, Enemies, and Pikmin should all go on their seperate pages. (3) Have fun, but don't flame at anyone else.


*Must be leaf ranked or higher
====Example Time====
 
#ExampleUser applies to join the Explorer Group. ExampleAdmin approves him. ExampleUser then gets a rocketship that he can give a paint job or give the perfect name, he gets the title "Captain ExampleUser", and a page where he writes captain's logs.
*Must be willing to join in important guild decisions (The Spotty Bulbear makes the final ruling depending on what was decided, but ''all'' members should participate in any big decisions).
#ExampleUser chooses to go down to the Pikmin Planet. He logs it in his captain's log. He discovers a new species of Pikmin and a hole which he notes but does not enter. He returns to the station and logs: his captain log, the new area, and the new Pikmin.
 
#OtherExample, a long-time user, sees ExampleUser's log on an unexplored hole. He choose to touch down and enter the hole (again, he writes it in his captain's log). When he exits, he logs in his captain's log and in the database that the hole is now explored.
=== Apprentices And Masters ===
#ExampleUser decides that he wants a source of income besides his explorer's wages, so he opens paint shop. Users can pay Pokos to get their ship painted.
 
#OtherExample sees ExampleUser's shop and decides he would like a new paint job. He pays for a sterling silver coloration. He writes it in his captain's log.
Apprentices are the beginning rank for those who join the Guild of Bulborbs. They are beginning in some particular duty related to their type. They are usually "mentored" and helped by masters. If they participate long enough and fulfill all the requirements, a Spotty Bulbear can upgrade them to "master" status.
#ExampleAdmin discovers that OtherExample did not subtract the cost from his Pokos, and has not subracted costs for quite a while, thus cheating. ExampleAdmin gives OtherExample a warning. OtherExample heeds the warning and stops. This is good, because otherwise ExampleAdmin would have to kick OtherExample out of the Explorer Group if he continued.
 
Masters have been at the job for a while and are the experts of their particular field. If an Apprentice becomes a master, he is present with a new "master sig" by the Spotty Bulbear. Masters have more duties for their job than Apprentices, and must be willing to help and guide Apprentices.
 
A third rank, "leader", also exists. This only applies to the Spotty Bulbear. Only one can exist at a time (see further down the page for more information on the Spotty Bulbear). A Bulbear can allow more users into the Guild and can upgrade Apprentices to Masters. However, they notably ''cannot'' determine who is the next leader. If they choose to step down from their role or have been absent without known cause for three or more weeks, they are considered to no longer be the Spotty Bulbear (if vacation or some other factor is involved and known, then they do not lose rank)*. A vote will be held in which Masters can apply to become the next Spotty Bulbear and present their case for why they should be the next Spotty Bulbear and what they would do if given that position. They will also provide a list of replies to see if they qualify for the rank. Once three users have applied and been accepted as candidates, the rest will all hold a vote**. If it is a tie between some, those who did not tie will be disincluded and votes will be collected again. This will continue until a new Spotty Bulbear is voted in, who will then create a Guild sig for himself.
 
1*If the old Spotty Bulbear returns from a period of inactivity, a vote will be held between the old and the new. The vote will act much like votes for a new leader
 
2**Apprentices and Masters can both vote and each vote holds equal importance with any other vote. Candidates cannot vote.
 
=== Guild Sigs ===
 
Guild sigs are the "badge of office" for Guild Members. Only the Spotty Bulbear can create and give Guild Sigs. Guild sigs appear as they do below, and the user's name will follow immediately after. Guild sigs are used when dealing with Guild matters and duties, but are not supposed to be the primary sig used for the Fanon. Guild sigs are mandatory when dealing with Guild matters as it indicates that a Guild member is responsible.
 
Guild sigs should always follow the pattern shown below for different ranks (besides the username at the end).
 
== Red Bulborbs ==

== Orange Bulborb ==
 
 
[[File: Orange Bulborb.jpg|left|50px]]
 
Orange Bulborbs are ever alert for spamming, flaming, and the like. They should often check the recent changes list for suspicious edits and also monitor suspicious users for any bad conduct.

If they find a page that is junk and needs deletion, they must inform an admin. Must also check recent changes list for anything that appears suspicious. They do not have the duty of monitoring suspicious users, but should inform an Orange Bulborb if they believe a user merits monitoring.

== Bulbear ==
 
 
[[File: Spotty Bulbear.jpg|left|50px]]. A special rank that has no apprentice. Only one user can be the current Spotty Bulbear. The Spotty Bulbear is the "head" of the Guild of Bulborbs. The Spotty Bulbear will deal with important matters concerning the Guild of Bulborbs. He is also the only person who can officially make a user a member of the Guild of Bulborbs(or "upgrade" an apprentice to a higher status), although other members can "suggest" a user that they think is elligible to the Spotty Bulbear. Spotty Bulbears must be fair but also look critically to see if users meet the standards for one position or another. Although they certainly can participate in improving articles, welcoming users, searching for spam, etc., these are not mandatory duties.
 
Whenever a user joins the guild or upgrades from apprentice to master, the Spotty Bulbear will have to approve them first. If he does, he will present them with a new guild sig.
 
=== Requirements ===
 
*Must be a Bureaucrat or a well-respected admin
 
*Must have been an apprentice and master in at least one of the other types
 
*Must have a fair and honest reputation without any spamming/trolling history
 
*Must be very active
 
*Must have achieved a Master Bud or higher

= Brainstorming =
 
Well, I talked to one of the admins and he has approved this idea. So, I'm going to brainstorm some of the pages and such that will belong to the Guild of Bulborbs. Please do not create these pages that are yellow without my permission!
 
'''Welcome to the Guild of Bulborbs HomePage!'''
 
[[File:GuildofBulborbs.jpg|450px]]
 
We are a collaborative group dedicated to improving the wiki! If you want to know about the different ranks, see [[Guild of Bulborbs/Ranks]]. Depending on what group in the Guild you're looking for, you may want one of these areas:
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs/Hub]]- This is the hub where you get a taste of the Guild of Bulborbs. It is the homepage, but specific matters should be dealt with at specific places. Important Guild notices, such as voting for a new user, upgrading an Apprentice to master rank, etc. are all deserving of notices that go here.
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs/Valley of Welcome]]- Home base of the Snow Bulborb group.
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs/Improving Wood]]- Home base of the Red Bulborbs, both Masters and Apprentices
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs/Protecting Pool]]- Home base of the Orange Bulborbs, who are the protectors from spam and the like
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs/Working Wild]]- Home base of the Spotty Bulbear. Come here if you wish to speak with the Spotty Bulbear on Guild matters or get into the Guild/get upgrade. Although there is a page on ranks, the Spotty Bulbear will have a list of requirements for each type of job on this page for reference.
 
*[[Guild of Bulborbs Forum]]- Although subdivided for each area and various subjects, this is the forum for all things involving the Guild of Bulborbs.

My idea board. Please do not edit it except for minor spelling/grammar mistakes. Please comment on what you think here. Peach Bulborb icon.png I'm Peach Bulborb, and I approve all grub-dogs. (Sysop)

Well, currently I have two ideas to write down. I am writing them down, but I am not planning to launch them until my previous idea is wrapped up and has a bow stuck on top. But, best to have these ideas exit my brain before they are terminated.

User of the Month

This is a very small idea, and not nearly as big as a story serial or the Guild of Bulborbs. However, I was thinking, what if user would every so often vote for who they think should be the user of the month. In the end an admin will collect the votes, and then announce the winner. Then the admin would put a small box with the "User of the Month"'s picture (their avatar picture, like my Peach Bulborb or The President's President picture) and then some date extolling the accomplishments of the user. Users can achieve User of the Month more than once, and in a row. Users (obviously) can't vote for themselves.

Pikmin Fanon's Explorer Group

This has gained inspiration from somewhere else, but has been modified a bit.

Due to the discovery of the Pikmin Planet leaking to the media, fleets of explorers have approached the planet hoping to find treasure and fame. One ship, the S.S. Explorer, has established a permanent space station orbiting the planet.

This space station, called the Pikmin Fanon, boasts living quarters, market space, and two large, glass domes that host a variety of plants. One of these has a wide variety of Pikmin, and scattered around in it are informational computers that have a log on any kind of Pikmin. The other dome has specimens of nearly every species discovered for scientific research.

Hocotate Freight now opens the Pikmin Fanon to the public, offering financing and an exploration ship to anyone who will dock and live at the Pikmin Fanon and then go down to planet and explore for the good of science (and wealth).

Users would start with a rocket ship, a suit, and a name (Captain _____). From there, what happens is up to them!

Users might explore for treasure, logging new Pikmin and enemies they find on the way. Or they might become thieves, never giving anything back to Hocotate and misusing the Pikmin. However, watch out, the police just might catch you!

The possibilities are endless, as you shape your own story through your writing!

Basically, whenever users choose, they can get back onto the explorations, and then tell other users what happens through a captain's log. Everything would be down on pages, nothing like a real video game, but users could discover a new pikmin species or a whopping 20,000 Pokos worth of cash, all in a days work!

Of course, we should have admins regulate. They could be explorers too, but they would take off that hat and put on the police one when needed. A few rules would be: (1) No ADs (absolute dominations). While you may discover a titan boss and beat it, don't become dominant over all of Hocotate and rule the entire world! (2) Log what you discover. Areas, Enemies, and Pikmin should all go on their seperate pages. (3) Have fun, but don't flame at anyone else.

Example Time

  1. ExampleUser applies to join the Explorer Group. ExampleAdmin approves him. ExampleUser then gets a rocketship that he can give a paint job or give the perfect name, he gets the title "Captain ExampleUser", and a page where he writes captain's logs.
  2. ExampleUser chooses to go down to the Pikmin Planet. He logs it in his captain's log. He discovers a new species of Pikmin and a hole which he notes but does not enter. He returns to the station and logs: his captain log, the new area, and the new Pikmin.
  3. OtherExample, a long-time user, sees ExampleUser's log on an unexplored hole. He choose to touch down and enter the hole (again, he writes it in his captain's log). When he exits, he logs in his captain's log and in the database that the hole is now explored.
  4. ExampleUser decides that he wants a source of income besides his explorer's wages, so he opens paint shop. Users can pay Pokos to get their ship painted.
  5. OtherExample sees ExampleUser's shop and decides he would like a new paint job. He pays for a sterling silver coloration. He writes it in his captain's log.
  6. ExampleAdmin discovers that OtherExample did not subtract the cost from his Pokos, and has not subracted costs for quite a while, thus cheating. ExampleAdmin gives OtherExample a warning. OtherExample heeds the warning and stops. This is good, because otherwise ExampleAdmin would have to kick OtherExample out of the Explorer Group if he continued.
