OKCINDR POST #5

[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 January 2nd, 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 the maximum amount of sheep you have counted when trying to fall asleep?
- Is it harder to forgive yourself, or to forgive others?
- How strongly do you feel that the past defines a person?
- What is your dream?
- Why would an android's dream contain electric sheep? Are they particularly drawn to livestock animals?
- If you could return to one specific moment in your life, would you?
- How do you wake up from a dream?
- Please
- Wake up
- You must wake up

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:

It's nice to speak with you again. Maybe we can find some places to eat together? I'm not really good at eating at restaurants but knowing where they are for future reference is probably a good idea.

317 // male // not interested in romantic companionship - - - - - What a clever little application this is! Whoever is responsible for its programming gets my kudos. Although, if what I have heard tell of is true, that some of our fellows here have had their "profiles" written for them without their consent or knowledge, that is indeed quite a concerning misstep. Perhaps a second set of eyes on the coding behind this endeavor would have been prudent, no? I'm afraid my specialty is hardware, not software, otherwise I would gladly volunteer to assist with a re-write. I'm afraid I will be giving the survey about sleeping, dreams, forgiveness, et al a pass. But, if anyone is up for some stimulating conversation about various scientific fields, please do feel free to respond!

A southern belle who is a superhero. Or at least, she pretends to be. Because what hero shows no hesitation in killing others?

Her mutant ability is power drain, but she can fly and has inhuman strength, too. The power of flight and strength were not her original powers. Maybe get to know her and ask how she obtain them!

So shoot your shot! She may be young, but that won't stop her from dating anyone who is forty-two years older than her. Come one, come all! Age gap means nothing!

Forewarning: she has issues with commitment, so there's a high chance you're not the only man she's getting friendly with.
