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

I am for a reason.

What is my best feature?

Part of it is always asking questions like this, you know.

But you seem like you can be generous, and that's admirable in someone else.

I'm just saying.

Good answers...

What is the most boring date someone could take you on?

The most boring one?

It probably depends less on the location and more on the content. After all, if someone never listened to you no matter what you said, that wouldn't be a very fun date, would it?

I sort of like it when people know when to shut up.

What do you have to offer me?

(Anonymous) 2017-05-21 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
That depends, really. What are you looking for?

You should already have your skillset out on the table. Someone came unprepared.

Here: I am a private man, an artist, with a busy schedule. I am always working. My hobbies are shopping and traveling Europe. I live presently in a seaside town that is nice and quiet. Most of all, the pride and joy of my collections are my vast amount of furniture I have bought from actual movie sets.

What can you do to please me, bud?

Somebody's assuming a lot about how much I know about you. There's a lot about myself I could tell you, but I don't want to waste my time telling you I'm excellent at puzzles if you don't care.

I am also a private woman, and I also have a busy schedule. I collect and customize ball jointed dolls, though I've kept it fairly small because I've moved very frequently my entire life. Several years ago I helped to found what has become a global organization, focused on the betterment of mankind, after an unfortunate situation when I was young could have killed me. I enjoy art, music, reading, and knowing unusual things. I wouldn't say travel is a hobby, simply because I have been required to do so much of it for work, but I enjoy the opportunity to see the world.

I'm not sure what I could do to please you if you won't give me the chance to.
