Could a single letter pass for an 'Emblem'? Something similiar may have already been asked but I can't find anything that would say this is prohibited.

Although it's a bit ambiguous, I'm fairly sure a single letter can be an Emblem if handled correctly. For example, the 'Z' for Zorro symbol sure must count as an Emblem, given what I think the Emblem is meant to represent
Of course, I'd wait until this is confirmed officially before taking this as gospel [smile].

Quote: Original post by MashiniblikSounds more like Fable than B&W [smile] Provided that the central feature of the emblem (the 'E' in your example) is recognisably the same - same shape, same style, etc - then you can use the neutral version of it without the embellishments causing a problem. If you were looking for a marketing motif, you might construct a version of the emblem that is half 'evil' and half 'good.'
G'day, we've more than sufficiently fulfilled the first three E's, but after reading every post in this topic, I'm a bit iffy about our emblem idea. You say to stray away from multiple emblems if possible, which makes sense, yet we had an idea where by the emblem is a sign of the player, and it undergoes slight changes depending on how The Player goes about playing.
For example, (cos we haven't designed the emblem yet) just say it is a jazzed-up-E, because Europe is the main point in our game, and if you play the game in a ruthless manner and become successful through disregarding the feelings of people in the game, then the symbol will become darker, and grow horns, yet if you undergo gameplay in a dignified manner, than it might have a crown and cape or something... Kinda like the cursor in Black and White how it changes with your personality...

In my text based entry. Is this:
considered an emblem if i put it on flags and people spoke about it a lot and it was worn on uniform? As the game is text based you will see the flag version and the other version but otherwise the emblem shall just be described.

My team is considering using a barcode as our emblem, which is tattoed on the character. Is this acceptable?
