OKCINDR POST #4

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 November 3rd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #4
PLEASE RESET PROFILE


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

What is forgiveness?
Can a criminal ever really be forgiven?
should you be forgiven?
Is a crime ever justified?
How do you justify your crime?
Can you forgive someone who's wronged you?


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.

never seen one of these things with footnotes before. points for academic flair?

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
the points going to the person who wrote the thing, or the subject?
coolerjunpei: (001)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 04:25 pm (UTC)(link)
uh, you, i guess. don't think the computer needs any encouragement for more tabloid shit.

so, congrats on the points.

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 04:29 pm (UTC)(link)
this is tame compared to actual "tabloid shit".
and normal internet stuff, too. I've googled myself. I know what people talk like.

thanks.
never got anything for "academic flair" before.


( or academics in general. )
coolerjunpei: (011)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
why would you google yourself...?

[That's not very academic flair-y itself--]

anyway, this tabloid is only tame because the computer's, like, brand new or something. it doesn't have google.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
why wouldn't I?

well, if we're gonna get all semantic about it, pretty sure google's just an earth thing anyhow.
coolerjunpei: (003)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
i've never googled myself.

right, i know. but they don't have the internet (tm or whatever) here, anyway. i don't think anyone taught the computer how to do tabloid shit, that's all.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
are you famous?

...someone must've taught it to do something, given everything.
coolerjunpei: (moments before being stabbed)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
god no, i'd throw out my computer if i was. go off the grid and stuff.

really don't think embarrassing online profiles was the mystery programmer's main goal, somehow.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
then you're not gonna google yourself, cause no-one's gonna have anything to say about you.

if I know anything about tech, it's that it always does the one thing you don't want it to do at the time you most don't want it to do it.

but also, people learn in weird and wonderful ways.
you'd be surprised at WHAT people pick up.
coolerjunpei: (nice neck)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
dunno about that, i was unpopular in high school.

and not for nothing but the computer's not going to learn the same way people do. i think we're safe from the full tabloid experience.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
( pause, then— )

internet wasn't really a thing when I was in high school.

( he also wasn't at school a huge amount even before dropping out, but that's neither here nor there. )

kinda making assumptions on how people learn there, right? given not everyone's from the same place and not everyone's human.
coolerjunpei: (011)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
lucky, i think.

well the computer's from here and it's been doing the same thing this whole time, so..... think this one's pretty solid.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
so...

...who taught it to do this in the first place?
coolerjunpei: (moments before being stabbed)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
that's the big mystery, or at least one of them. we don't know. someone who thought their sims 4 neighborhood really needed crime and punishment in the mix, i guess.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
( so how are you so convinced on what it will or won't learn, huh, is the question he doesn't ask. )

there any specific reason for "sims 4", or did you just want to really hammer in on the "barton, you're out of touch" vibe we've stepped into here?
coolerjunpei: (could this shirt be tighter?)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 06:14 pm (UTC)(link)
cuz it's 2029 for me and sims 4 is older than i am but still stands the test of time, it's nothing personal. everyone else here is either from space in the year 243978548 or like, the 80s. it's whatever.
westcoasts: (pic#17474427)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
to be honest, you're just lucky I'm from a version of earth with sims, cause that's really not a given.
coolerjunpei: (god what the hell)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
well yeah, of course the no sims at all history is out there somewhere. don't worry, i could explain the sims to somebody in need.
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
we're probably stretching the definition of 'in need', but sure. fine. everyone's gotta have a talent and all that, right?
coolerjunpei: (nice neck)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
are you implying my primary talent is remembering stuff about the sims 4?
westcoasts: (Default)

[personal profile] westcoasts 2024-11-03 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
that's exactly what I'm doing, yes.
coolerjunpei: (027)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
wow. for that kind of slander you should pay me $1175 in reparations.

which is the approximate price of all the sims 4 game packs and expansions.

isn't it libel when it's written?
coolerjunpei: (hooooly shit)

[personal profile] coolerjunpei 2024-11-03 06:43 pm (UTC)(link)
i dunno man, i dropped out of college. i'm actually only good at math. but if it is, where are my libelbucks?
