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.

It's not half!!!!!!!

[ seriously, is that what your opening argument is? ]
entreats: (and with everything you said)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-07-08 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Almost half.

[ Look, Vash. She'll even concede this much for you! Isn't she being so nice. ]

I mean, it's pretty obvious that you were avoiding all of the deeper questions. You need to be more subtle about that sort of stuff. Some people here are going to notice, you know.

3 out of 9!!!! It's a third!!!! 30%!!!!!

[ look, she is being TOTALLY nice rn ]

It's just hard to answer ... besides, this is just for fun, right?
entreats: (tenderly around her)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-07-22 05:42 pm (UTC)(link)
It could be.

Or this could all be part of what the people in charge here intend for us. They could be gathering information to potentially use against us later. To make our worst fears come to life, for example.


[ Sorry, Vash. You may not have expected Conspiracy Hour. And yet that's what is happening now. ]

So you mean it's a good thing I didn't answer them all, right?

:-)


[ sorry, he's a little shit ]
entreats: (throwing love astray)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-07-29 11:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ She's staring at that emoticon.

Staring, I tell you. Scrutinizing it. ]


Are you making fun of me?

[ IS THAT WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE, VASH!! ]
skelters: (brokiloen) (pic#16339073)

[personal profile] skelters 2024-08-01 11:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ ANGE DON'T BE MAD ]

What???? Why would I?????
entreats: (she just needs someone)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-08-01 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ TOO LATE, VASH.. It's all she knows to do!! ]

You are making a :-) face at me.

[ The greatest of all offenses, clearly. ]

[personal profile] skelters 2024-08-02 11:37 am (UTC)(link)
I was just smiling!!!!!!!!!
entreats: (you're silent but strong)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-08-03 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
That's what they all say.

[ To be fair, considering she has been gaslit before while getting bullied, it's not like it's a purely dramatic statement with zero basis whatsoever..

Even though she is still being dramatic by any normal standard. ]


Are you saying you're just that friendly or something?
skelters: (ponponpon) (pic#16530446)

[personal profile] skelters 2024-08-04 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
Don't you know that already?

[ come on, ange! he is the residential friendly bullyable guy! ]
entreats: (she's not good enough)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-08-06 09:52 am (UTC)(link)
[ ... ]

You're a weirdo.

[ ANGE, BE NICE..

Though it's not even like she's being actively malicious, she's just being testy. A teenager. You know the drill. ]


No one could be that cheery while being stuck in what's effectively the world's worst torture prison.

[personal profile] skelters 2024-08-17 10:58 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, yeah I suppose I am! :-)

[ really not the worst insult he's ever heard ... also, vash guesses? that she means it not in a negative way! ]

But wouldn't it be worse to be just all doom and gloom about it? That doesn't help anybody, you know?
entreats: (she just needs someone)

[personal profile] entreats 2024-08-21 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Being positive doesn't really help that situation either.

But then again, I guess there's nothing that can help us at this point. I've already been trying to find a way out of this place for a year now, and there's been absolutely nothing that's worked.


[ .. yeah, maybe Vash is kind of spot on with his entire 'doom and gloom' description.. That does seem like what's going on here with Ange.. ]
