Martin Detwiler started the topic CD Week 12: external goal {discussion} in the forum 7 years, 3 months ago
*ushers you all into dusty, moth-ridden discussion hall; books are scattered, some open, others in stacks, next to various armchairs and benches and giant cushions scattered around the floor*
We’re going to do our best to undust this place this week, and drive the moths away. This week, we will be jumping back into our discussion pretty much…[Read more]

Martin Detwiler started the topic January 2019 Accountability in the forum 7 years, 3 months ago
Ereki!
I am making a regrettably late appearance. But I am appearing. So we can all be thankful for that, right? Er, well, most of us, anyway. 😛
Suffice it to say that this is the first ‘normal’ accountability thread that we’ve got going on this year, so let’s start it off with grandiose, amazing, impossible-to-achieve goals, shall we?!
On the…[Read more]

Okay, first of all, I am really happy to see how much feedback this got, and I almost feel like coming together to discuss ways we can become a stronger community has actually, like, made us just a little bit stronger as a community. Huh.
Anyway, I’m just going to go in order through the comments so I can adequately address everything that was…[Read more]

@karthmin It would depend on if the “I” in this story is literally me, or if this a story prompt where “I” is just a suggestion that I think about it like it was actually me. If that makes sense.
If it was literally me, I would do what @kelly-lundgren did and apologize and go die in a corner.
But if this is more of a story prompt, then the…[Read more]

WOOHOO! Excellent goals from all of you! I really, really enjoyed seeing all of the alerts pop up in my inbox with such great goals for this year. I really hope to create an atmosphere that ties into those goals and helps you…[Read more]

@lady-frosttongue I love it! Wolves are such cool animals. Oooooh, and the black ones are just so mysterious.
@devastate-lasting *laughs* I love this argument.
@catwing *blinks* WOW. You, like, created an entire story world. It’s great XD

@kelly-lundgren We do! 😀
@thetessinator Thanks. 🙂
A video chat sounds nice… Except… the camera part… and the talking part… And my shyness… Yeah. And then I would be talking to internet people and I’m not even sure how it would work. (I do know some of you pretty well, but not quite that well. And the whole Life and Death thread has…[Read more]

**blinks**
**sees 2019 on the calendar**
Wow. 2018 disappeared quickly, and left a lot of lessons in its wake. All of which I am very grateful for, and the holidays are always a bit chaotic for us since “no” doesn’t seem to be a word we know how to use in this house…
**Makes note to get better at that**
Anyway….Because I started December…[Read more]

Catwing replied to the topic Guild Improvement Ideas in the forum Events & Guild Maintenance 7 years, 3 months ago
@karthmin Well, I had mentioned the idea of Guild Masters having an assistant. And now what @thetessinator said gave me an idea.
What if we have titles or maybe Guild positions?
I’m not sure how it would all work or what they would be. Just an idea. Would people think someone should have so-and-so title they can nominate them? Or would the Guild…[Read more] -

Hello Ereki! Welcome back after our refreshing holiday break! *looks around at a sea of faces that have clearly been fed by many cookies; checks pocket mirror, grimaces*
Humbug. About time for some goals, I say. XD
Just kidding! I trust you all had a wonderful Christmas celebration (of whatever kind that your family does) and that you’ve become…[Read more]

Amen to @kelly-lundgren. The format is kinda dumb and I wish there was a way to nest comments on someone’s replies. I mean, it’s not LIFE OR DEATH HORRIBLE but it’s really annoying.
I feel sorta guilty because I haven’t been active, mostly because I’m trying more and more to stay off the computer, also because there’s just so much to look at that…[Read more]

Erekdale! A new year is upon us! I don’t know why I entered solemnly, because there’s not really any reason to. Unless we are supposed to be sad that a year is over and done. But hey, there’s always another year to take it’s place!
Which means a couple hundred days that we get to spend together in this little…[Read more]

@kelly-lundgren I just read this and would like to share a few thoughts, based on the questions that you asked. 🙂
Are my characters compelling and believable?
Your characters are pretty good! There is a fair amount of name-dropping early in the story that takes a bit of time to understand and sort out; maybe a few quirks here and there in your…[Read more]

The results are in!
The judge has judged, the pronouncements pronounced, and the placements placed.
We…
…got another honorable mention! And once again, one of the reasons why we didn’t outright win is because we did a bit of a twist on the dream sequence genre (see the judge’s feedback in the doc attached below). Go figure. Another t…[Read more]
