Oh you are all wonderfully evil T.T
Lol Ok so I come baring good news! Well the first isn't really good news, but its just news. Anyway, I will be getting the Calendar up late this season because I am intent on finishing Nano for once! Im so close I can taste it mwahaha. Lol anyway I will probably have the Calendar up for you next week sometime, and with it I will include your thread challenges, and most likely the new perk system which I will rename to something more Sahovaish XD. The way I have it set up is that you can earn some points by doing OOC things like helping out new players, threading with a certain number of people, making locations, etc, but the REAL points come from IC stuff. Big points for gaining ranks, for making new contacts, for completing seasonal challenges, etc. You will of course only be able to get them from threads that are NOT modded by me! Thus I hope that will encourage all of you to thread even more with each other, and with some of our new players
.
So, in addition to the Thread Challenge that we will start having every season, the Winter season (The month of December actually) is extra super special. For those of you who do not know, I hold a special OOC event called "Zombie Clause" during this time. Basically it is a super fun contest that actually DOES end with a prize being given out to the winter. I will have the write up for it posted about the same time as the Calendar. Basically players will enter a christmas story to me all based in Mizahar! Last year I had players redo Dashing through the snow, Rudolph the Red Nosed Rain dear, and even The Night Before Christmas story all done in Mizahar themes. It was really cool! Unlike last year though only the winner will be getting a visit from Zombie Clause who brings with them a special item that will unlock a secret quest for players either late winter or early spring. Last years winner was none other than Wrenmae, and he ended up getting a key to the Vault which lead him into a very interesting story arch with Sahova! If you have the chance you should check out that story
Now there is no guarantee that your item will be something magical, or even very useful, but then again this is all just for fun and to get people into the holiday spirit
. Feel free to start dreaming up contest entries now, but they are not due until a week before christmas!
Finally, I am thinking of something fun OOC for us to do for the Holidays, and of course if anyone here does not happen to celebrate the holidays you are free to join in too! I was thinking something akin to secret santa. You each get a random player player's name drawn and this year, either at christmas or the end of December, you get them something! It can be things like a drawing, a cool box code, maybe a short story or poem? Heck you can even make a sign for them! I thought it might be just a fun little OOC thing for us to do to help build the ties of friendship
. What do you think? Lol it's just a really random idea I had a little while ago so I thought I would share it!
As always, Happy Writing!
