okay, so this is just from my point of view, and if you agree/disagree feel free to comment. anyways, this site event, while being an awesome idea and having lots of good plots come out of it, was super random and not talked about, and just thrown onto everyone's plates.
now, this is just from experience and it might not be the same for everyone, but i cant rp with everyone because writing styles can be harder to reply to than others. sometimes your chars just wouldnt get along, and you dont thread them for a reason. but this is throwing random chars that wouldnt even plot or interact together and it might be hard.
love a challenge. so it's accepted.
anyways, i was also wondering if next time we do a site wide event that the admins dont go do it all on their own without the staffs help. its what we're here for actually. to help make the site better for everyone. but because only two people are running such a huge event like this (25 threads for just two people??) i hope that next time you tell us about it so we can help keep things moving along quickly. ♥

I do agree/disagree with bits and pieces of what Ally was saying, so I'll try not to add too awful much to all of this, but I do love the site plot idea. It forces all of us to be anti-clique (which I assume was the point <3) and there have been several characters I would have LOVED to RP with but there was nothing that my charries and their charries would have in interaction except maybe a small hello or something that would be quite the dull thread, so I'm super excited that there is an opportunity here. Have to fight together, apart, back stabbing or rescuing. OH, the posibilites. It is a little harder with writing styles, but it makes everyone a better role player in that sense. <333 I couldn't believe the idea and how wonderful it is,honestly c: Even texted my friend and she agreed that there would be no way something like this would have succeeded on our old site (that was cliquey... and I hadn't really realized it until looking past it but that's a different story)
With all of that being said, I do agree with Ally that if anything like this should happen again (hopefully this first time around will be successful) it won't be taken on by two people who are not only trying to take on multiple threads, but have a busy life. It's very hard to get super excited for something but have to delay it, EVEN if it's for a day. Heck, even if it was for an hour, it's still that same feeling. There's five staffies c:
I do love this idea. I can't even describe how much it brings a warmth to see admins so into the site and everyone I've talked to is excited about it (and I don't think everyone really KNOWS how the new members write, so it could turn out a muse is super high when posting with this person) The ONLY thing I suggest to be different would be to try not to take the whole world of Nightmare on by yourselves c;

Hai, yes, I totally agree with most of this. Even though it was random, you didn't have to sign all of your chars up, because you were told that you would be RPing with random people. It was top get people to start plotting with those that they wouldn't usually, and everyone would interact better. I am aware that this was delayed, and yes it has taken a lot of time because you guys are awesome and signed up so many chars, and Izzy and I will be asking for help when I go on holiday booo, or even sooner. But really, now we just have to deal with this the way it is, and we will post the stuff as soon as we can, because like you said it was a lot on our plates, and we just wanted to start doing it.
I know there are five staff, and I love them all to bits, they are ALL such an amazing force/help but I felt like this was so much to explain, and not that they wouldn't understand, but it would cause chaos if five people are busy, and if five different stages of completeting their part for the threads. Literally, we only have like, a few paragraphs left to write, so we should have this up as soon as we can, we're sorry for the delay and next time we'll go round it a different way.
I love you guys <3
