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 think you summed it up pretty well there. Feeling special by them and with them.

Yeah, but nothing else? Nothing more specific? You just walk around hoping someone will have the right vibe, like using a dousing rod or something?

No, no. Of course not.

I mean, the physical attraction has to be there. Anyone who denies that is delusional or just trying to make themselves look good. But the 'attitude' and 'image' they project is important too. No one wants to get involved with someone who isn't confident and needs to constantly be propped up. I guess you could call it 'strength,' but I wouldn't call it physical either. Anyway, that's my answer.

Yeah...yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for explaining what you were going after.

I guess that was three things. Anything else you want to say?
