Traffic Life implications

Posted under Tags

BUR #27598 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

create implication 3rd_life_smp -> traffic_life_series
create implication last_life_smp -> traffic_life_series
create implication double_life_smp -> traffic_life_series
create implication limited_life_smp -> traffic_life_series
create implication secret_life_smp -> traffic_life_series

First BUR, so I hope nothing's out of the ordinary. Newbie here! They're all part of this series, so they should imply the main series tag.

Seriously, can I get like... Any reasoning behind the votes here? I have no possible idea what the mehs are supposed to be for here. Is it the overall series tag name? Personally I'm not fond of it myself since "Traffic Life" is a fan name, Life SMP or Life SMP Series would be better; but I didn't make the tag.

If it is the name, I'm totally down to edit the BUR to alias to life_smp_series or whatever. I have no idea what else the votes would be about given this is a very straightforward request? It's just entry copytags -> series copytag.

...Why the meh vote(s)? I'm confused.

I can't assume what reason they gave for their votes, but I imagine the mehs are moreso because they don't have any real opinions on the topic one way or another (probably magnified by the fact that this is MCYT). Sometimes entries of something get aliased into the main copytag, sometimes they don't - it depends on the context - and I imagine most folks aren't going to bother to check whether this is an occasion where having entry tags is entirely necessary.

So I'll use this opportunity to ask - are there substantial enough differences between the various entries that justifies giving them tags to begin with (instead of just including them under the main tag)? Genuine question, it would probably help a lot of us non-MCYT followers.

That was my reason, but I didn't know how to word it without sounding rude.

From the looks of it, I guess the images under each seasons copytags reference events from that season?

Ah, that's fair. Just took me off-guard to see the immediate like, influx of votes with no elaboration. Like I said, very new here haha.

Yeah! Each series is basically self-contained aside from the core mechanics being shared, each one is a fresh restart with new members, worldbuilding, alliances, etc. The gameplay mechanics also vary greatly between the series - in Last Life, players can exchange lives with each other, in Double Life, players are "soulbound", in Limited Life, players are on a timer, etc. These are often depicted visually by artists in different ways, such as physical timer objects for LimLife.

Players also have different unique skins/outfits between series, and depictions in artwork can vary based on these factors. For example, PearlescentMoon in Double Life is typically depicted with a unique outfit labeled as "5AM Pearl" in some merchandise, while in other seasons she wears a blue outfit. In Limited Life, Martyn and Scott have an aquatic theme to their appearance that isn't shared in any other series.

I probably should have elaborated further in the initial post, given this is a copyright that's pretty out of scope for a lot of users here. Good to keep in mind going forwards!

Hm, in that case, then I see no reason why I shouldn't vote for the BUR then. The different appearances alone justify it.
