State of the Game! Where is your character at this point in time, and what is their next course of action?

This post shall contain the weekly SotG comments/threads as the game goes on. This is to encourage discussion and plotting about where your characters can go from here. As this is the primary SotG post, this has now been stickied to always be at the top of the OOC community.

The next SotG will go up on July 1st!

THE NOSTALGIA MEME

It's been a while, it's been a long time. No one knows what these characters could have been up to. Perhaps they're still in the game? Perhaps they're from a doomed timeline? Perhaps they're from nowhere and they're just interacting? No matter the case, all Scrib characters are welcome to come back and chat with each other! The past is catching up with us, and now it's time to feel all nostalgic about it.

1. Post a comment
2. Other players give you prompts (ships, characters, randomness, whatever!)
3. Write said prompts
4. ?????
5. Profit!

The Long Term Goals/Shenanigans Meme!

So it's the return of the long-term plotting and shenanigans meme! Or rather, in this case, just plotting for the future! As with the SotGs, we're here on DW for the plotting and we're gonna make it happen! Or there's some player plotting but oh gosh it's everywhere and not in one place! Come here, plot some, make some magical magic happen.

Share your long term plans, your short term plans, your desires for CR with others, or your general plot and shenanigans you've got in mind! Have things changed since the earlier meme? Are there dastardly ideas you've got floating in your mind? It's been nearly four months, and we know everyone a bit better, so post it all up in here! Let's make it happen!

Listed below you can find the fantastical form to fill out to make some plotting happen! Feel free to add or remove anything you think is important. Most importantly is that you've gotta plot! Yeah, plot. AND DON'T FALL DOWN THE STAIRS. :y

<b>Name:</b> Player Name<br> <b>Character:</b> Character<br> <b>Long Term Goals?:</b><br> <b>Shenanigans?:</b><br> <b>Anything Else?:</b><br>

Guess what, guys?

Today marks the first birthday of SCRIB's official opening!

I'm gonna keep this short and sweet: I want to give some massive thank-yous to everyone who's stuck by us in the past year, be it those who have been there from the beginning, those of us who joined halfway in - dang was that six months ago already? - and even those of you who have been content to just quietly stalk the game (because I know there are some of you out there)!

It's because of all of you guys that SCRIB has managed to thrive, and with the recent surge in activity, here's hoping we can all see the game through to the end, whenever it may be!



While I'm here, might as well post a small update: many of the game's info pages have been given a small makeover, so feel free to check those out too. c:

(SEMI-COMPLETELY stolen from the last Shippinz Meme post!)





1. Post your character with a comment on this here meme.
2. Others will comment on your characters, anonymously or logged in, suggesting ships and prompts they want you to write about. ALTERNATIVELY they may use the Scrib Shippinz Generator to decide for them!
3. Anything goes, from fluffy to smut to everything in between! Also, there is no word limit, so it can be as short or as long as you want.
4. ????????
5. ALL THE SHIPPING EVER AND ALSO FEELINGS

GET TO IT GUYS

SO GUYS

i would make up some stuff about being possessed with the ~spirit of the holiday season~ or something but really i just worked out a deal with skie that he gave me a ton of stuff on gaia in exchange for me drawing a bunch of stuff for everyone. so really this was all his idea go and shower love on him and stuff

BUT ANYWAY I AM OFFERING ARTY THINGS!! go under the cut for what i am saying

( HM01 )

so yeah basically if you want something then comment under the threads which i will set up in a second. obviously i don't want to overwhelm myself with all of this so for now i'll take five requests for ref sheets/panel edits/talksprites (that is, five of each of these). icon sets are a lot more intensive and whatnot so if you are genuinely interested in one of those, let me know and we can talk about it

ilu guys :*

ALCHEMY MEME!!!!



STEP ONE: list the items your character has lying around their domicile
STEP TWO: come up with horrifying item chimeras for them to create out of them
STEP THREE: go into as much detail or not detail as you feel like
STEP FOUR: suggest things for other people to alchemise or items for them to alchemise things out of

The Long Term Goals/Shenanigans Meme!

So there's nothing more fun than getting unexpectedly awesome CR. But maybe you've got something a brewing and you think it could effect the rest of the cast, but...Time zones. Or there's some player plotting but oh gosh you can't find the plurk it was on anymore! You've come to the right place, my friend. This is where the magic consolidation happens.

What plans do you have for the long term? Maybe you want your character's development to go in a certain direction or maybe you've got some crazy plot shenanigans cooking up in your mind. Post it all up in here.

Below is just the usual A/S/L formy form of doom thing for you to start with. Go ahead and add or subtract any field you think is relevant to your plotting needs. :v

<b>Name:</b> Player Name<br> <b>Character:</b> Character<br> <b>Long Term Goals?:</b><br> <b>Shenanigans?:</b><br> <b>Anything Else?:</b><br>

Our plurks got taken over by ancestors and guardians shenans lately, now what to do with all that? Play around some more with it! 
It's free style taging time, ladies and gents. For those who like to be inspired by prompts, there are some under the cut, however feel free to ignore them and do your own thing (i.e. play out your canon scenarios, etc.).  

( flower-inspired prompts )

Talk about how you came up with your character's...

• Name
• trolltag / chumhandle
• symbol

In Homestuck, characters -- troll characters in particular, but kids too -- seem to have a really dominant, defining theme that determines where their name, handle, and symbol are drawn from.

Did you think about that stuff when you designed your character? If so, HOW DID YOU CHOOSE IT, AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Use this post to mingle and meet with each other! For the coding to make your tags MSPA-style use the box below:

<b><font face="courier"><font color="#HEXCODE">

This mingle is backdated to AFTER the previous mingle posts, but before the game launches! It's primarily to build interactions between the new players and existing ones, so old tagging new is highly encouraged! To old players, don't worry too much about keeping track of your newer interactions when tagging, but mentions of the game should be kept to a minimum, or at least the true nature of it.

Apart from that, there are no real guidelines for this post, so tag away and be merry! Comment with your character's name in the subject and then tag into others' threads!

SO THIS SHOULDN'T BE MUCH OF A SURPRISE but I'm dropping Gwen. IT WAS GREAT PLAYING WITH YOU GUYS but I'm getting too busy for this, especially with a character that I can't seem to really get attached to. Sorry ): 


She dies via tidal wave via meteor. Before she dies though, she sends this message to Sparks, and then immediately signs off.

sparks.
I'll be blunt.
I don't think I'm going to make it in time.
the game is loading so slowly.
the tidal wave from the meteor is getting closer.
It's probably my fault somehow.
sparks you're my best friend.
i'm sorry.
p.s.

take care of it
take care of yourself

ITP: BRAINSTORM.

I told you this would be a terrible post

anyway

here is a post in which we will generate ideas for cool shit that we can make happen in scrib, such as cool planet adventures, players hanging out with each other, denizen things, quests, unfortunate game errors, shit getting real, etc.

go forth and post or else.
