TEST DRIVE/MINGLE: IT'S TIIIIME

EVERYONE LIKES A PARTY
In spite of recent events, Aldrip goes ahead with its annual celebration of the winter solstice! Just like last year, locals and Chosen alike are expected to be indoors once the sun sets. It's traditional! Those who choose not to participate may be in for a surprise.

YOU ALL KNEW THIS WAS COMING (the sequel)
Aldrip has a unique infestation that seems to hit its peak around this time of year...

Missile toads. We're talking about missile toads.

For the uninitiated, the motives of these nefarious amphibians are totally unclear, but for whatever reason, they want to see the Chosen either kiss, fight, or spill the deets on all of their darkest secrets. They'll be out in force and up to their old tricks, so pucker up! Or put up! (Or both?? Look, we won't judge.)

IC SECRET SANTA ✤ SIGN-UPS OPEN!

[coordinatroll]

Hello Expi! Look at your calendars and despair─ somehow, December has returned! And with it...



Just like last year, Mitama will be hosting a Secret Santa event! How does it work? Simple, you can comment under the sign-ups thread on this post! They will be open until Sunday, December 8th, after which I will RNG the characters into pairs and inform the players of the gift-givers of their targets! ICly, they will be expected to present (see what I did there) their randomized recipient with a gift around December 25th, but naturally, players can forward- or backdate it as needed!

On the IC front, Mitama will a network post sometime later today (?) to announce the event! After sign-ups close, she'll drop a note on each participant's inbox to announce their gift recipient. Then it's all up to you! Plot, consult ICly with friends and family, pick through the ugliest Christmas sweaters in existence for inspiration, and spread joy and happiness!


tl;dr schedule

12/1 - OOC sign-ups open
12/1 - IC announcement of the event/IC sign-ups open
12/8 - sign-ups close
12/9 - Mitama informs participants of the gift recipients
12/25 - participants give gifts to the recipients (can be forward- or backdated as needed)

I'm in! Tell me again how it works?

Just comment below under the sign-ups thread! The OOC sign-ups are what's gonna be taken into consideration, so there's no need to thread it out on the announcement post, but of course it can be done, too.

I wanna participate, but my character wouldn't willingly sign up...

Fear not, for there's a very simple solution to this! It being that... Mitama could simply add them to her list for the lulz. And if they try to refuse to participate after that, she will gently convince/threaten/blackmail them into behaving properly. So feel free to sign up anyway and the ever reliable Miss Coordinator will take care of the rest!

What if there's an odd number of participants? Will everyone get a pair?

They absolutely will! I'll hold off on signing my characters up, and will add them in case we have an odd number and need one more person to make it even, so no worries there!

I still have more questions!

Feel free to ask them under this post or contact me on psychelocks or psychelocks @ discord!

DARK WEB COMMS & YOU.

[ashaya]

By popular(?) request, I was asked to define what precisely the Dark Web Communicators are for, who has what, and so on. I have duplicated this information on Spock's journal (linked here!) for easy access and will be altering his splash page for immediate access for all and sundry in the event this information gets lost to the annuls of history.

That is all to say: ( Here are the details. )
