OKCINDR POST #2

Ever wanted to have CR with a character and wasn't sure how to get them to cross paths? Wanted a dating app so you can hook up with hot people? Wanted to just find friends because you're a lonely bastard?

With the update of the tablets and the apps, we now have a dating / friendship app called OKCINDR! Players can use it as they please for the two months that it's up -- just imagine that they're profiles to swipe right on and everything. The idea is to encourage CR that may be difficult to get with characters who may or may not be interested in events / posts / logs / other network posts.

So, on July 2nd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #2
PLEASE RESET PROFILE


This month, if players reset their profile, they will have a list of their choice of questions to answer:

- what is your favorite color, and why?
- describe your ideal date
- what's your favorite food, and are you able to cook it yourself?
- tell us about your very favorite hobby
- do you fear death?
- do you wake in the morning staring into the abyss, wondering if it stares back?
- what constitutes "life"? are you "alive?" how do you know if you are "living?"
- if you could be any animal, what would it be, and why?
- tell your favorite joke


Players, of course, are able to ignore this message. However, if a character wouldn't fill it out but a player would like to participate... the profile mysteriously resets itself. There may even be responses sent from Character A to Character B without Character A actually doing anything, if you'd like! This is a completely opt-in scenario! But for players who would like to participate fill out the post:

network profile
Character_Name
@username
ABOUT_ME




If you'd like to for shits and giggles, here's some notifications that may be used:

Name (@username) followed you




Name (@username) unfollowed you




Name (@username) blocked you




Have fun! Code credit.

Me too. Karma can be like that.

Nothing like that, it's just a hobby and something I do for anger management. We don't exactly have monsters where I'm from.

Aliens sometimes, but not monsters.

Aliens? You mean beings from outer space?

...Though maybe I shouldn't really be surprised considering where we are now.

Yeah, they fell out of the sky a few years back. It was a whole thing.

We didn't used to get things like that, back home.
demonicbookworm: you mean there are people who don't like books?? (wait what?)

That definitely sounds like a world changing event.

Are you getting along with the aliens?
devilsavocado: (listening; civil war quote)

Not so much.

The aliens showed up trying to destroy Earth. One of the avengers had to throw them back in their portal, or so I hear.
demonicbookworm: (scared)

[personal profile] demonicbookworm 2024-07-05 04:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no! That sounds like a huge crisis. But I take it was okay in the end? Throwing them into the portal made them retreat? I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the avengers" either.

It was a pretty big deal, yeah. It's taken the city years to recover from that.

I'm not totally sure about the specifics, though. There might've been a nuke involved? But closing the portal got rid of the aliens one way or another.
demonicbookworm: nobody listens to me... (siiiiiiigh)

[personal profile] demonicbookworm 2024-07-06 09:31 am (UTC)(link)
Nuke?? Well, as long as everything ended well...

Hopefully disasters like that don't happen in your world too often.
devilsavocado: (listening; civil war quote)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2024-07-07 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Don't worry about it.

Wish I could say so. It's been pretty calm for a while though, so, you know. Knock on wood.
demonicbookworm: (oh man...)

[personal profile] demonicbookworm 2024-07-07 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course!

But it looks like other places have problems that are beyond what I would've ever imagined. My world has been suffering from a war for some time now, but recently there was a ceasefire. If we were attacked by something out of the world it would've been an even bigger disaster...
devilsavocado: (scarf; eavesdropping avocado)

[personal profile] devilsavocado 2024-07-11 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah. Aliens tend to kind of put a damper on things. We used to be pretty normal before that happened. I mean, wars and that kind of thing still happened, but... nothing on a global scale. That sounds pretty tough.
demonicbookworm: (the end of nightmare)

[personal profile] demonicbookworm 2024-07-11 11:56 am (UTC)(link)
As sad as it all is, I suppose it can't be avoided. I can't imagine there's a world out there that would be peaceful all the time.
