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

[...]

Sorry to disappoint you, but I was just hoping to win the game by writing something I thought you'd find romantic.

I won't taunt you and say "You fell for it," but my real idea of a romance would be much different. ...You understand, don't you?

[Raises an eyebrow]

Oh please, I would hope you're not actually trying to court a 17 year old girl. I do understand how games are played you know, it was a good effort to appeal to me that deserved reward.

[laughs] Yes, but I know how important romance is to a 17 year old girl, having been one myself once.

All right. Glad we're clear then.

I'm afraid I've never had much time for romance myself, so I wouldn't know.
golden_dream: (Steady Pace)

Well, you're still young...

Though, I am surprised to hear you're only seventeen.

[personal profile] andascholar 2017-05-21 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I turned seventeen four days ago. How old did you think I was?

[personal profile] golden_dream 2017-05-21 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Twenty, or so.

[personal profile] andascholar 2017-05-21 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that right? No, I'm afraid I'm not quite an adult yet.
golden_dream: (Dir)

I suppose that explains a few things.

[personal profile] andascholar 2017-05-22 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's nice to know you don't intentionally try to harass and manipulate children, I suppose.

Very funny.
