Every month, an entirely optional challenge will be hosted either by any one of you, or if no one decides to take the slot, then by the mods! For more information on what challenges are and what you can expect out of them as a whole, click here. Essentially, we hope that these challenges will get everyone’s brain snapping with creativity as well as bringing everyone together in a way that is inclusive and helps fill in the narrative.
For our first challenge, we wanted to cover a wide breadth of opportunity for players to interact both on an IC and an OOC level. We tried to cushion it with a lot, being that this will also span into April. Before the game opens, you may use any of these prompts to write backstory logs with! Otherwise, post game opening, you may use them however you see fit: journals, texts, social media, whatever, as long as you capture either the spirit of the word association or check off the prompt.
In order to qualify for the prizes that will be given away based on participation, here are some rules:
The TOP TWO people who score the most points will receive icon batches of their choice from either Holly or Cortney! We just ask that you please make sure there are screencaps available. Everyone else will get cute little participation banners/trophies. ♥ If anyone has any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask! Otherwise, happy plotting!
