Assassination game is where there are assassins, they are given other assassin's name that they must try to kill. Forum version is that they must get that person post a certain word in forums without being too obvious. It's usually something unusual. When they 'kill' 1 target, they move onto next and who scores the most wins. Or something like that.
I just thought werewolf made more sense in a setting where some are the possibly murderers, not everyone goes around killing everyone. [lol]

all i'm saying is not knowing what a person can bring to the table
everyone is as important as the person next to them
because everyone looks at things differently

about the themes
the more the better to choose from
maybe we can post a poll of ten at a time?
that way everyone's theme idea would have a chance
i can go with any theme idea, just so long as we have a user's event

i played mafia with maidenroseheart: i believe
she could probably help with ideas
assassin's game is just like knerd's

Can we change polls in threads?

hummy 01-08-2014 03:13 PM


we can do a new thread for voting each time
or just do pm's to Wy as she suggested

Mods can change polls in threads upon request, but I understand it's a bit of a nuisance for them. I also don't feel that a changed poll would draw as much attention as a fresh one, although changed polls could be useful for our planning when it comes time to choose event colors and mule name.




Also, in the future, if anyone finds themselves getting upset with someone in this planning thread, please bring it to me in PM so we can try to work things out quietly. We may have just lost an excellent organizer with lots of great ideas-- who also happened to suggest one of my favorite themes. I say 'may have', because I really hope she'll change her mind, but I'm afraid she won't, and I'd really hate to lose anyone else because of hurt feelings. If I'm the one you have a problem with, PM me anyway. I promise I won't knock you down just because you disagree with me, and handling things one on one-- or one on one with a mediator-- is a lot less likely to result in hurt feelings.

Don't mind your blathering, Aya! I found it pretty helpful!

And yeah, you're probably right, we really should accept suggestions a little longer. Perhaps we should try to focus on types of games/sticky threads? Most things will work for a variety of different themes, after all!

We could also consider ways of raising funds... perhaps people would be interested in buying raffle tickets for some kind of prize or other?


i love how bbr did the fund raising last time
she's crazy busy but maybe she can point us in the right direction

i just suggested different threads for votes so we could save them
then everyone could see how the suggestions were wittled down
and maybe in the end we could do a wild card theme idea
ya know bring back one that was eliminated?
i kind of prefer public voting,
but i'm good with PM's too

Shadami 01-08-2014 04:23 PM

Wow... i missed alot being gone for a day. :/ Sorry to see what went on actually. I hope I can still help out.

hummy 01-08-2014 04:34 PM


good morning, Sha, how's your day?
i think Steelmagghia was taking a head count
maybe ping her and let her know you want to help?

EirianHikari 01-08-2014 04:36 PM

Wow, went to bed and 3 pages passed.

hummy 01-08-2014 04:37 PM


good morning, Eirian

EirianHikari 01-08-2014 04:38 PM

Morning Hummy!

hummy 01-08-2014 04:41 PM


will this be your first user run event?

EirianHikari 01-08-2014 04:55 PM

Me? I've posting in the actual threads while they were going on, but this would be my first time helping.

BrotherOfDarkness 01-08-2014 04:57 PM

Well i just popped to the shops and a page went by.

And on a side note if I upset anyone feel free to pm me too, but either way don't worry about what you say to me, be as mean as you like, I kind of like it [whip]

However, I do see the need of tidying up the themes base on its popularity, attractiveness, workability to short list before putting up the poll. I think the short description is very useful to see how workable it is to incorporate activities and storylines.

In my thinking, public poll should hold the final and last decision. As when the result is out, everyone would know which theme it is instead of waiting for another inner round of voting.

It's not the sole reason.

If you read the guide to a User Events, the staff don't encourage them
They know it's a lot of work, and if not planned and run well, they don't
often have a lot of attendance. If a theme is picked that does not have
backing from those who are putting it together, it could flop. Period.

Also, if we don't let the users pick a theme they like, advertise it like mad,
take suggestions for games, and fund-raise up some great prizes. It could flop.

Whoever is the host and pays the fees to have the event, is pretty much in
charge. The guide says to be "ruthlessly selective when choosing your helpers"

I'm not in charge. As far as I know, Wyrmskyld is. I personally don't care what
the theme is. I don't care if I have a sticky thread. I'd like to be involved, regardless

We can do a single public poll, no first round of voting through PMs, if that's
what the decision comes down to. I suppose by only allowing themes with a
description to be in the voting, we're already sort of pre-screening suggestions

P.S~ Yay xuvrette is here [hug]


Ethos is entitled to her opinion. I'm not going to go through my opinion
on everything she said before leaving, because it's pointless to drag that on.

I apologize, not to Ethos for expressing my opinion, but to everyone in this
thread who had to watch us debate. I'm sorry if we lost a planner

hummy 01-08-2014 05:15 PM


have a great day, Aya!
keep warm

EirianHikari 01-08-2014 05:17 PM

Hi Aya! [:)]

hummy 01-08-2014 05:18 PM

I called in sick to work [sweat] I make my own schedule, so as long as
I get my hours in the week, it doesn't matter what schedule I keep. So
I suppose I chose to take today off 'cause I'm not feeling very good and
I have enough days left to make my hours. I am very warm now (^ w^)

Hi Eirian, your pink text always puts a smile on my face

that is a great schedule
sorry you aren't feeling well
but really happy you are nice and warm now.

ObviouslyAya 01-08-2014 05:28 PM

Isn't it? I love my day job!

I think it's my sinuses. The last week or so I've been having headaches,
mostly on the right part of my forehead. My nose is both runny and stuffy,
I'm going through tissues so fast at work xD My nose is really dry and
sore now, so I bought some gold bond lotion. My throat gets a lot of
mucus and I usually have a bad taste in my mouth. Right now it's not
too bad, but I felt awful when I woke up. So I went back to bed xD

I'm warm cause I have my heater on!! But I'm hungry [gonk]
