OKCINDR POST #4

[expiationmods]

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:

What is Christmas?

[mightymorphin]

it's a Christian religious holiday, but to be honest most people in America celebrate it whether they're particularly religious or not. it's mostly about feasting, having a big tree you decorate, and giving presents to your family and loved ones.

[jaganshi]

Oh. The one with the lights and bringing a tree indoors to put breakables on them.

I’ve never bothered with being in the human world around that time.

[mightymorphin]

that's the one! now you'll be here to see it... or see how Aldrip celebrates it, anyway. :)

[jaganshi]

I guess.

I'm sure there are people in our group who will want to, anyway.

[mightymorphin]

think of it as a learning experience! and there's usually a lot of good food involved, if the other holiday stuff doesn't appeal to you.

[jaganshi]

Of what? Weird human traditions?

Food is the only appeal to me at this point.

[mightymorphin]

don't knock it until you try it! it might seem weird to you, but we have fun.

and the holidays means gingerbread cookies, candy canes, eggnog, all the pies you can think of... the food is great.

[jaganshi]

I don’t mind the sweets.

It’s the expectation of the rest of it.

[mightymorphin]

you mean the expectation of having to join in?

[jaganshi]

Yes.

I know with the group I am with that there will be … a lot of activity, depending on what is going on here.

[mightymorphin]

hmmm my suggestion would be to at least try it out briefly, but if you don't like it for any reason then don't feel bad about bailing. then you can say that you tried, right? I hope your friends would be understanding if it's not your thing. not everyone likes the holidays!

[jaganshi]

You have far more faith in them than you should.

[mightymorphin]

heheh! don't worry, I'm sure you'll survive the experience. :)

[jaganshi]

Depending on how much cheer I'm expected to endure I may not.

[mightymorphin]

no one's ever died from Christmas cheer! ... as long as you don't count getting drunk on eggnog. probably someone's died from being too drunk on Christmas.

[jaganshi]

Eggnog?

Is that just eggs with liquor in it?

[mightymorphin]

yes, but there's milk and sugar in it too! it can be an acquired taste, but it's still better than it sounds.

[jaganshi]

Oh.

If I can eat natto I'm sure that will be fine.
