Brainstorming Post!

[brat_inslayage]

Picture me flailing in futile and exaggeratedly comic rage if it makes this whole comment redesign thing just an infinitesimal amount better.

You know how this works, right? Make with the storming of the braininess.

[[just wait for the OH GOD HOW IS THIS EVEN GOING TO WORK I DON'T KNOW AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO TELL FROM MY INBOX ocd, such as it is, is there. *weeps* oh, hell. get your redesign rage on in the ooc sorta-thread. DO IT.]]

The biggest problem I ran into was that I randomly assigned who would swap with who, and a few players found that difficult because they didn't know much about the character they were supposed to "be."

We didn't have problems with unkind parody, but it is a potential risk.

This isn't a "don't do this," by the way -- big parts of it WERE loads of fun. Just stuff for whoever feels like taking it on to consider. And I will drag out the organizing posts tonight if anyone's still interested.

It'd be great to get a chance to look at the organizing posts, yeah! I wonder if it might not help to let people choose who to switch with on an OOC basis? Or failing that, to make it like roommates, where they can either choose their own or ping in to get RNG'd. The possibility for awkward is still there, but at least there's the option of specifically choosing a character to swap with for comfort or plotty purposes.

This plot was waaay before my time, but I went poking around the comm and lo, the info post for the pseudo-mindswap plot is here! (With minor addendum here.)

Also I'd be in favour of people OOCly figuring out who thinks they're who, as I would personally find that most comfortable.

... And obviously I'm in favour of this plot in general. :D
