3MD again!
Have you been feeling bored? Would you like more interaction? Do you want to be thrown at people you might not normally play with to spark a friendship or maybe more?
Well guess what!
Three Minute Dates will be returning on Satirday, February 7, because actual Valentine's Day had the audacity to be on our usual weekend!
*3 Minutes = 10 pings, up to 5 from each character. You can of course take a ping or two to wrap things up, but please be efficient. If you're going to need more time with the new friend/love of your life/ONS, there will be a regular Caritas post set after 3MD.
*3MD is open to everyone. Townies, teachers, students, alumni, all are welcome. The numbers no longer allow me to separate characters by category, sorry!
*An attempt to pair characters up by sexual preference will be made. That said, it also depends on signups and it's more likely that you'll end up with a mix of genders that you/your character may not have signed up for.
*You can sign up with as many characters as you want, but please keep in mind that each one commits you to up to 5 threads with people in all sorts of time zones with all kinds of schedules. Try not to sign up more than you can reasonably handle. That way everyone can have a chance to complete all of their dates.
*The post will go up Friday evening, the 6th, and will be available for slowplay through the weekend. The bulk of the playing should take place on Saturday, but if you need to wrap things up on Sunday, that's fine. If you sign up and later find out that you won't be around at all on February 7 PLEASE let me know to take your characters off the list, especially if you've signed up with multiple characters. And if you know you won't be around at all that day, please don't sign up. It never feels good when somebody has a bunch of threads without any interaction.
At this stage in the game the number of rounds will depend entirely on the number of people who sign up. The more players sign up, the more variety in your dates! If you want to make sure you're not fake dating the same player a lot, convince your friends to sign up to widen the pool. This is open to anyone who's on island that weekend. Do you conveniently have an alumni who might show up for the weekend and get roped in? GOOD. Would your character absolutely not do this and be nowhere near Caritas on purpose? I guess it's time to get kidnapped by some Fandom wildlife to hang out at a bar for up to fifteen or so minutes, or something! Does your character not want a date but just wants to talk to people? Perfect! Are you in a committed, loving relationship? DON'T CARE! In fact you probably should meet friends outside of it to keep it healthy!
SO. If you'd like to participate, drop a screened comment below with your character's name (how you want them listed in the post) and any preference by Wednesday the 3rd at midnight CST.
