If everyone knew 1984 was when everything was going to happen, why was no one prepared?
Hexennacht is an alternate universe MWPP game set in 1985; a world where Gellert Grindelwald is now the Minister of Magic for all of Europe, and Muggleborn wizards live in fear of the Black Caps, Grindelwald's personal army, charged with keeping the Muggles and wizards alike in line. Hexennacht begins with the latest decree restricting magic allowed by Muggleborn wizards to the simplest forms of magic, while the purebloods are allowed to get away with murder. With the Death Eaters on the run, Voldemort in Azkaban with no hope of getting out, and the Order in hiding, along with the remains of their single ally, a former terrorist organization, is there any hope of restoring Europe to a land of tolerance?

Re: Bless your heart for waking up to all this.
I'm getting banner ideas from reading this, thanks. ;D
It seems to me like it was a case of the invulnerability of the internet taking over and some of our comments were more vicious than I feel they would have been had this happened in real life.
No matter what we decide on, I like the idea of using some of those suggestions and some 1984-esque imagery for our banners.

Re: Bless your heart for waking up to all this.
I do believe you've hit the nail right on the head, so to speak. The anonymous nature of the internet makes it so much easier. There's an intimacy to communication here, like there's no filter between brain and hand, unlike the social filters we were taught to use between our mouths and brains.
I personally have a policy of a one-hour cooling off period before responding angrily to a comment. And I was taught that the best way to calm down an angry customer is to speak softly and kindly. A version of the old flies/honey/vinegar trope that actually works.
Again, sincerest best wishes. And do, if you haven't, go have some breakfast or something if you just woke up. You shouldn't be dealing with this on an empty tummy!
Oooh, lastly, I think I got this image from the famous Apple "1984" ad; a "Big Brother" talking head, looking sort of distorted and greenish and angry on a TV screen. I also meant to look up more punk titles, but I sent the comment before I did. Anyway, I've given you more than my two cents. Cheers!
