I would like to host a small 1-2 week long roleplay event in the Discord server.
I've been wanting to doo a "choose your own adevnture" kind of thing for a while, but stuff hasn't locked into place yet. It is, howebver, a future projext to publish in the boardhosy sokeday. Hopefully. And bc of that, I want something that will bring engagement. Some action, and hopefully fun!
The roots of roleplay are in all of us and I'd like to bring that tradition up again. I think a current issue is that we're all used to long form content roleplay ehich is fine honestly. I've grown with and love it, as it's the essence of GGaD. After some changes were made to the forum, a Roleplay category was opened. And I have thought of putting up signups there (might too, one day or smthn...) but I do fear if would face the same future as several roleplays back in the og forums. GGaD is already establishedmuniverse, so that makes it easy to follow for long periods of time.
In light of this, I want to host a brief real-time event in the Discord server with a format I've learned. It would be a bit like a one-shot, I think. Just a short story with chracter relations and minigame events that won't take up anyone's time too much and will make use of the break days you guys have. This is somehing i'd schedule for the first half of January or so btw.

If you guys like this idea, I can think a bit more on the premise to make it suitable to everyone who wants to participate. The more characters the better, so, I'd allow up to 2 characters. I was thinking something gameshow-esque to make room for minigame events and having a short-term goal, and there's a bunch of things to add in. Such as a potential (darker???)  mystery to uncover behind the company that does this...? Thing is, an easy way to raise the stakes is to put he participants' lives at stake amd I'm not sure if everyone is willing to have their character potentially die. So let me know your opinion on that and I'll see to it accordingly.

…

As a general update, expect to see me around a lil more! Irl stuff is kinda crazy rn since I jumped out of finals and into a very.....hectic situation in home life so that is kind of taking up my time a bit. And I'm still working part-time (though you can expect to find me in discord during that time) which is fun but eats up part of my day.
There's several things I'm looking forward to this summer, and one of them high up in the list is reading from you guys again! I've missed y'all so much

It is, and there's actually a lot of resources dedi cated to helping people in those jobs avoid the effects of vicarious trauma. I used to take 911 calls several months ago, and while they could sometimes be very stressful, it was often gratifying to be able to say that help is on its way. I really enjoyed it despite the stress. Though, I was just an interpreter.

Hi guys! I'm up for whatever game you might wish to play. In particular, I'll be available after midnight for New Year's if y'all wanna do something then. But before that, just lmk and I'll try my best to be at whatever session there is.
I have an activity I would like to do for January but it's a lil more complex and idk how long of  break you guys have. Let me make another post for it.

WE'RE GETTING MESMERIZED WITH THIS ONE LET'S GOOOO 🗣️🗣️🗣️

I'm not even on my own computer right now I think I'm going to get some kind of wrist injury because I?m not used to this keyboard
Hoping that the new videos from Alien Stage have songs as catchy as "Ruler of my Heart". It's been almost a year since I heard that one and it got stuck in my mind so much.

WHO THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO PUT A SINGLE STUDENT TO MAKING 18 DIFFERENT UNIQUE ADS FOR A SINGLE ASSIGNMENT PLEASE I'm here feeling like Miku in "Mesmerizer" I am on the brink of insanity
(I still have another course to complete that I haven't started on yet but for context, I'm working solo cause my previous group used AI without my knowledge and the professor did. not. like. that. And I had to make an appeal to keep MY HARD-EARNED GRADE from hitting rock bottom but now I'm carrying the whole assignmente on my shoulders)
Both is due today. I can't.

I realized this year I've gone back to reading a lot of books huh. It's pretty nice. I've always considered myself a bookworm but I hadn't lived up to the description much of that ever since I finished school.
This week I read Murder on the Orient Express and it was fun! I don't tend to read mystery/detective stories (other than when I ate up all the Sherlock Holmes compilation books) but this one was a very enjoyable short novel with a twist. Fun stuff and it kept me entertained for a good while. I can definitely understand why it's a classic.
I still have some books in my soon-to-be-read list and I mean that because I have them physically available. Probably will be reading The Three Musketeers soon enough cause I have to return it to its owner at some point and this reminds me that I haven't gone to the library in so long. My uni's library doesn't have novels to read or any kind of book similar to that that you can take home, so I just take it as a place of study. I do miss when I was younger and used to bring home books from the local library, though.

I think I hadn't seen the text color + font change so dramatically on this boardhost before I am having a moment

I mean, I don't really use AI that much, but you could totally see my increased usage of it as a result of not being able to hang out in my regular internet places as much as I wish.
Anyways, I am currently being consumed by a mixture of work, class work, and hyperfixations. I am so brainrotted, you guys. I don't think I have experienced this before and once again I think it can only be traced to this weird change in my routine.

Anyways go watch Animation vs. Animator and also the Animation vs. Minecraft series they're so fricking good

(I do have the content about the post I made here last but it's on another device lol)

DON QUIXOTEEE CONTENT

I want to say inactivity notice but at the same time I'm not quite sure if I'm really going to be inactive for a while. Truth is I've been really overworked these past weeks and I'm desperately looking for stuff to relax with a bit sou  yeah I'm doing a bunch of irl things that I don't usually do (I got back pains from being at my computer for too long) and idk if I'll have much time to be on here.
Hoping things clear up soon! Maybe I'll get inspiration to do some art or write some roleplay stuff. I truly hope so.

Well I guess you could conclude that xD

Working on a character profile (mentally, not physically yet) thing and I'm trying to find all art of it but I actually suddenly remembered that for this character Chan actually drew her years ago (2018) and it was a redesign of my original design and then I kept that design with some modifications and I'm like wow???

and something that really took me for a spin is the pose + expression because this character... isn't like that, but I do vaguely recall changing her personality to something else because there were too many serious people in the fic I submitted her for.
anyways I can't believe that was so many years ago I'm genuinely wow (Chan has always been a great artist)
Anyways I'm currently in the dilemma of whether I should credit Chan or not for the character clothes design? It's not the exact same but what I changed was only the accessories really I'm kinda thinking about that rn.

Did you get any special loot?
