valentine's day event: sign-ups!

Hello, everyone!

With the permission of the mods, Souji and Yu will be hosting a player plot which is a Valentine's Day event in the form of blind dating! What this means is that characters will sign up, be matched up with someone randomly, and be "forced" to go out on a date with them on the 14th!

Of course, there are a few more details than just that, so under this cut is the all the information about the event, how it will play out, and some important dates (including the sign up deadline, which is this Friday!).

ICly, the twins will be hosting an event on Valentine's Day where characters can sign themselves or others up to participate in a blind date. Those who sign up can optionally give a very short description of what they're like (interests and the such) so they have a more suitable match. They will then randomly pair up everyone and contact the participants on the 13th in regards to who their date will be. From there, the dates can plan things out with each other and how the date would or would not go.

OOCly, for those who wish to have their characters participate in the event, you guys just have to sign up here! We understand that not everyone has a character who would typically join these kinds of events, so we've gotten permission from the mods for an alternative.

For those with shy characters or those who wouldn't actively sign up, players have two options: 1) they can have another character ICly sign them up, or 2) to have Retrospec accidentally submit their names to the twins (since the system already has their info). For the latter, the twins won't realize or even know that they were faulty submissions so they'd just process them and match them up with others without suspecting anything.

The IC sign-ups are here! But it is not mandatory to reply to it. All we need is an OOC sign-up here on this post with the form to be filled up. Even if you replied to the IC post, please also comment here so we have everything in a neat and organized manner.

Sign-ups close on Feb. 10 at 11:59PM EST, so if you'd like to participate, please get your comment in before then! We will contact all players on either Feb. 11 or 12 to notify them about their matches. This will be done through leaving an IC comment on the character's inboxes (ICly, these messages will be fast-forwarded to say that they were left on the 13th), but we will also reply to every comment in this post to link to the match's player and contact info.

A log will then go up on Feb. 14 where all the blind dates can take place!

So, the OOC TL;DR is...
    → Players can sign up their characters for a blind date event. Characters can be signed up against their will, either by other characters submitting their names on their behalf or through a glitch in the Retrospec
    → Sign-ups will close on 11:59PM EST on Feb. 10
    → The results of the matches will be sent to every participant of the event through a comment in their character's IC inbox but also in response to the OOC comments here in this post on Feb. 11~12
    → A log will go up on Feb. 14 to contain all the blind date threads

If you're interested in participating, please fill out the form below and comment to the post. Thank you for reading and we hope that everyone will enjoy the event!

Hey! So Aleksi/Char got David for the date roulette. Any way you'd like to play this? Aleksi can be pretty good at saying the "right" things if you're interested in a nice date. That said he's also Finnish mafia and can react to things like a thug at times.

I'm pretty up for however you'd be interested in this going! From platonic date to one night stand, it's all good. Lmk!

Considering that David got dragged into this thanks to his boss being cheeky, he's probably going to mention that on the outset just to make sure things are clear. :|a outside that he'll at least be responsive and (attempt) to be charming, might go a bit overboard with sarcasm because it's hardwired into him at this point. Also the whole "I'm technically a bodyguard but don't tell people that on the outset to protect my charge" thing.

I'm cool with whatever as well - personally I can see it go either way, though I like keeping an open mind with it. Knowing David, he'd probably wand to keep it casual.

Jfc I'm sorry this is so late new job ended up bowling me over. If you are still interested in doing this backdated I would love to, but otherwise no worries!!

no worries! I've been in the midst of trying to prepare for a move so I get it - I wouldn't mind backdating this if you were still up for it at all!
