Day 9 - The Dating Game

ICly, this game is played on your tablet, and can only be activated when you're alone in your dressing room. You can play vocally or text-based, but either way they come out on the other end as pure text and/or read by a computerized voice.

FIRST DAY (until 7:00PM PST tomorrow; an extra day since I got it up late):

ETA NAH LET'S EXTEND IT INTO THE NIGHT. Second half is just reveals anyway! I'll get it around noonish tomorrow.

🍔  Make a toplevel for your character, starting off with some kind of open-ended question. Your tablet provides some example questions, and you are free to steal one or invent your own.

🍔  Everyone else replies to the toplevel anonymously! Lying, kissing ass, or pretending to be someone else are allowed and frankly ENCOURAGED.

🍔  While there are no hard rules against any sort of questions, for the part of the questioner, trying to suss out identities goes against the principle of the thing and will be looked upon harshly by Ronald and the King. This is a dating game, so relax and try to find your perfect romantic match!

🍔  After someone replies, the questioner can ask up to three more questions to each anon. Anons, stay in your threads.

SECOND DAY (until 6:00PM PST Sunday)

🍔  I'll make a new thread, where everybody can announce which of their anons they would most want to date!

🍔  Winning anon, reveal yourself!

🍔  You don't actually have to go on a date (it will not count against you), but if you'd like to, a ~romantic, off-menu dinner~ will be provided

This is probably the best answer on its merits. However, it makes me suspicious about other things.

How many people in this game do you care about more than me?

Two, but not in a romantic sense.

What circumstances would lead you to accept an offer to go to the hotel? Please feel free to differentiate between receiving multiple votes and benefitting from a hotel pass.

"None" is an acceptable answer.

You do not have to elaborate on "why", since that would be really likely to get into prize discussion territory. "What circumstances" means stuff that could happen given what we already know. Take your current grand prize and consolation prize as a given without elaborating.

I would only accept it if the possibility of continuing were zero. In other words, I would only take it over dying, but I would still take the gamble if there was even one percent chance I could go on. Now that the prize has been dangled in front of me, I'm honestly not sure what I would do without it.
