OKCINDR POST #5

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:

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.

[ she did just admit to having recordings of most of Aloy's life and having watched them so, you know, fair. ]

I was gathering data. I didn't think you'd look at the network.

[She's laughing on her end.]

I didn't realize how extensive it is.

You can contact every single person who's been brought here. It's good for asking questions.

I don’t think I want to contact every person.

[That’s too many persons!]
nobetawedielike: oh (38)

It makes information gathering convenient. Isn't that a good thing for finding out more about the AI?

[personal profile] despitethenora 2025-01-14 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe.
It's too bad my Focus can't connect. I bet it could filter out useful data a lot faster.


[That's what's important. Isn't it?]

I've got nothing but time, I can make it a project to see if it's possible.
despitethenora: (Cunife)

[personal profile] despitethenora 2025-01-18 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
If it's possible, I'd appreciate it.
Otherwise
I'm sure there's more to learn about this AI.

There's a group here, they call themselves a STEM group. It means their focus is in science and technology. They've been here a while, I believe, so they may be a good place to start.
despitethenora: (Manganese)

[personal profile] despitethenora 2025-01-20 06:04 pm (UTC)(link)
STEM?
Think it's anything like getting in touch with Miriam Technologies, back then?
nobetawedielike: curious, talking (40)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-20 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.

[ the kind of group she'd love to get involved with, if she wasn't so unsocialized. ]

It's possible. I haven't spoken with them, but I saw mentions of them investigating things here, and trying to help.

[Unfortunately, Aloy takes it for granted that Beta can only socialize so much. She is herself a bit inclined toward introversion.]

Sounds like a good place to start. Do you know if they operate out of anywhere in particular?

I don't, but there's signs around saying to look for a 'Peter Parker'.
despitethenora: (pic#17567803)

[personal profile] despitethenora 2025-01-20 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Peter Parker?
That's an odd name.

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-21 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
There's two of them, actually. I'm not sure if that's coincidental.
despitethenora: (Cunife)

[personal profile] despitethenora 2025-01-21 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Are you thinking they're also clones?
nobetawedielike: neutral, calm (32)

[personal profile] nobetawedielike 2025-01-21 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
There's a chance. I haven't seen them in person yet.

I wonder.
Okay, let's put that on the list. Something to follow up on.
