OKCINDR POST #7

[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 May 2nd, characters randomly look back at their tablets to see the following:

OKCINDR PROFILE RESET #7
PLEASE RESET PROFILE

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

- Do you like long walks on the beach?
- What's your favorite hobby?
- What's the best kind of crime?
- Are you a criminal or a judge?
- Are snakes friends?
- Will they be mad I changed them?
- What would you do to protect someone?
- What if I lost them forever?
- Have you ever thought of gardening?
- How do you know when someone is lying?
- Where do you think those who disappear end up? Or do you think they never truly left?

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:

I think so. People outside want to get in, but I don't hear about too many people who want to leave the City outright. Probably because of how dangerous the Outskirts are.

[memori3s]

The city sounds pretty dangerous too though.

[followyourstar]

Oh it definitely is. Life in the Outskirts doesn't sound great, but life in the City has its own problems. It's probably more accurate to say they're just different rather than one being better than the other.

[memori3s]

Problems no matter where you go.

[ Sounds rough... ]

Grass is always greener on the other side.

[followyourstar]

Yep. Guess it's up to the person who got there to decide whether or not it was worth it in the end.

[memori3s]

Would you go beyond the City if you had the choice?

[followyourstar]

I've been there at least twice (though I'm not sure if one counts since I don't know exactly where we were on the water out there?). I think I'm good on trips out of the City for now.

[memori3s]

[ Gnomes........? ]

Oh.

My world sounds a lot quieter than yours...

[followyourstar]

A lot of people's worlds are, from what I've gathered. Not sure if I should be relieved for you guys or jealous.

[memori3s]

I think a little bit of both is okay.

[followyourstar]

You think so? ...Guess as long as it isn't just jealousy, right?

[memori3s]

Yeah.

It would be weird if you weren't a little jealous.
