a. What did you enjoy about the event? What was not as much fun? ~I loved the confusion. CHAOS! Not fun was being rather new to the forum and not knowing who people were in the first place. b. Was the timing (two week event, three days for each theme) a good length, or too long/short? What would you change? ~Maybe more time for each theme and clarifying the date for those in different timezones. c. Did you like the themes selected? Any change you would make to the selection process? ~Loved the themes. Next time we should have the rejected themes from this time as well as new suggestions. d. Would you like to add additional activities to the Spirit Weeks to make it more of an event? If so, what? ~That would be great. Just general forum games, hide something in your profile and get people to try to find it? On a slightly related but completely different not: CATASTROPHIC FAILURE! My comp had a fatal error and I have no screenies from the last theme! I'm not sure what to do about it but if anyone has a suggestion, feel free to help me!  |

…Say, maybe now we could make a thread in the RP board where we play as people we impersonated, either just because we want more roleplay, or as an event tied in with Spirit weeks.  All in favor? *raises hand* That sounds good. *Raises hand* On a slightly related but completely different not: CATASTROPHIC FAILURE! My comp had a fatal error and I have no screenies from the last theme! I'm not sure what to do about it but if anyone has a suggestion, feel free to help me! Have everyone dress up again? (As you can see I'm still wearing my Cthulhu costume.) |

It would look silly though. *raises hand for RP* |

a. I loved dressing up, being in-character in the 'bloids, and talking to everyone else who was in-character. ^_^ The first event caught me by surprise so I didn't participate in it, though, which was a pity. My own fault, I'll admit. XD;
b. I think each theme should have been longer, and also the positioning at the end of December didn't make it easy to participate. I wasn't on the computer much because of family and holiday stuff. And New Year's parties. >_> So I think maybe summertime would be a good time - perhaps we could do them twice yearly, one in summer and one in winter? That way people in different parts of the world would get a chance at having good timing...
c. The themes were a lot of fun, and I think the selection process worked well. So no, no changes to that. I agree with whoever said the last one was a bit vague, and the NT one wasn't as much fun for me simply because I'm not quite active there lately, but the latter at least is definitely just a personal thing, so no worries. I still enjoyed seeing other people's costumes.
d. More activities would be really fun, though I'm not sure what. And I agree that an RP would be really fun. =D

(As you can see I'm still wearing my Cthulhu costume.) ((I'm still as Axl, and I was taking pictures of each of my costumes after Zero. So I can send my screenies. I may have pictures of a few other people, too. Do you prefer Neomail or PM?)) Well, looks like we have enough RPers. Does anyone want to start the thread, or should I? I think people who didn't participate may want to join in. I think we should let them join, but should there be any kind or rule to it? My idea is they'd have to pick a character that fits the second, third, or fourth themes, or that they should at least not play as themselves. What do you think? |

Spirit Week is already over. Shouldn't we wait for next Spirit Week? XD |

A roleplay doesn't thrill me... mostly because... well, if there are a tons of people dressed up as characters I don't know anything about, it's not going to work for me.

I don't roleplay at all... so it's not something that sparks my interest period. Although Killix has a point - if I did RP, I'd probably want to have a good idea of who the other characters are supposed to be and such.
And maybe I missed the post that answered this, but what's the link to the screenie page?

Spirit Week is already over. Shouldn't we wait for next Spirit Week? XD Doing it now is what my whole suggestion was! …Say, maybe now we could make a thread in the RP board where we play as people we impersonated, either just because we want more roleplay, or as an event tied in with Spirit weeks. All in favor? *raises hand* ((No, you wouldn't have to play as all the characters you dressed as if you don't want to. I know it would be too much for me. *did nine different characters, including Infranscia*))  Admittedly, it wasn't the most obvious statement. Maybe I should have said 'a late event.' And seeing the different characters is something I'm looking forward too, even if I don't know who they are. Actually, if we don't know who they are it may help us keep our character interaction more realistic. Sure, we may be good at things like that, but you never know when someone may slip. I suppose if enough people want to know who the characters are, it could be required that you give a description of the character, and a mention of what they're from. People could even use official descriptions from manuals and such if they want. ((I wanna RP Axl…)) Anyway, who here is up for starting an RP now, or in the near future? *raises hand* At least before the next Spirit Weeks, preferably before GW3 starts. |

The catastrophic failure means that I havn't even finished Week two of the screenies, I'm still cropping and uploading but I hope to have done all I can before sunday. Please be patient with me, I'm a slow worker! |

But I am, and I think everyone else here too is really appreciative that you did this, Sarn. <3 Major kudos! |
