WEEK ONE

29 Vacationers

As much as this vacation was unplanned, hopefully you've found some time to enjoy yourself this weekend as you've settled in. The idyllic beach, all inclusive food, drink, and shopping might be almost enough to distract you from that pesky talk of sacrifice. Vacations really are about letting your worries pass you by. Hopefully you've found the time to set up your U-PINION too, because if you haven't, it's been chirping incessantly since the date turned to Monday. And come Monday at noon, everyone's device will let out a pleasant jingle, heralding several announcements across the screen:

Happy Monday! We've hope you've been enjoying your time at Sungem's Peak. The Mermer (intranet) is now fully operational. Chat with your friends and get recommendations for how to best enjoy your vacation, by:

• Reading about your fellow vacationers via their profile
• Chatting on the network
• Asking honest questions via our anonymous poll system
• REQUIRED: Reading the RULES set by the administrators

We're also happy to announce our reward system is live! Complete tasks to receive special items to improve your stay!!! Contact your administrators for any questions or concerns. We hope you have a wonderful week!

The artificial peppiness of the announcement just oozes out from the U-PINION, and soon thereafter everyone will be accosted by a friendly robot that forces a physical copy of the rules into their hands anyway. Just in case. They'll also present a copy of the tasks this week as well, for any interested parties.

!

TASKS:

Be Nice
Now that you're acquainted, tell another person one thing you like about them, and why.
(REWARD: RARE!)

Let's Play!
Play a game with someone else. Any type of game: board games, card games, or even a party game! (Reward: Common )

Summer Spooks
Tell a two-sentence horror story in person, or on the network.
(Reward: Common)

((OOC: Welcome to Week 1! This is a peace week, so they'll be no case this weekend. However, we have something for you to chew on Saturday, time to be announced later in discord.

We'll also be playing around with the network and seeing what works as far as formatting goes, so thanks for bearing with us! Also please note, that the poll questions are anon, but any answers won't be. ))

Ah! Let me explain to you with a question of my own, then! ◢(0◡˂̵ ✧)◣

So, what would you have picked if there was already someone else here who picked the name 'bishopkallamar'? And no, you can't both be bishopkallamar.

[hearnoplague]

I would hope they did not impersonate me!

But, if I had to, I would have picked "bishopofplague" or something similar.

[microtransactions]

Maybe it's another bishop Kallamar from another dimension. You never know. ◢(｡0ᴗ-)◣✧

Point is, sometimes names get taken! So sometimes you gotta switch it up and do something different. Sometimes it has meaning!

Sometimes it's just more fun. ~✧

I don't think anyone here actually is trying to pretend to be not-themselves, anyway, considering how easily they'd be found out if they tried.

[hearnoplague]

As unlikely as it is that there are two of me, you have a fair point. Is it more common for usernames to be taken when there's more people using this service?

And how are you drawing all these symbols on this device?

[microtransactions]

I would imagine so!

As for the other thing, you'll find it in the expanded options in your emoji keyboard!

[ does not explain how to do any of this. ]

[hearnoplague]

There is only one keyboard, and I do not see an "expanded options" drawer on this contraption.

[microtransactions]

Hmmm.........

You should ask the Marvelous, Magnificent, Majestic, Magical, Miraculous, Magnanimous ✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ:* Merlin *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ then!

[hearnoplague]

[ That is a lot of Ms. ]

Isn't that the person who chose "MM" for a username?

[microtransactions]

Yep, that's the guy. I think he was showing someone else how to do it over the network earlier, so you can definitely ask him! ✧
