Tragedy The Taking Planning Forum ☁ SWC March 2024 ☁ Closed ^^

hmm the symbols don't seem to be showing, so they probably wouldn't work xD

i like the tragedy woods, but both are great—tragedy: the taking does have some nice alliteration

:0 maybe for the currency they find our journal hidden away and we don't know they've got it but it's inevitable either way just knowing your doom before it happens. Maybe the campers try to earn the currency in /secret/ from us XD

I'll just keep tragedy : the taking for now then!

wait—the currency or what is bought with it could be pages of the journal, and that's where the mystery comes in

Maybe instead of a currency we could use a word goal? I think a currency might be a little difficult incorporate into the storyline?

Also are we thinking of the campers receiving the clues from other leaders? I think that’ll be a little more engaging for the campers rather than us just giving it to them. If we want to that I can post it in the leader forum if u guys want <33

Maybe the other leaders are trying to help us /even thought their doom is inevitable/, so they steal journal pages from us and pass them on to the campers? I don't really care whether it's a currency or a word goal, it's up to you guys!

What do you guys think of having a 3rd co?

“Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.”

iinspirqtion

And any ideas for how we're going to add words?

What do you think about this for the cabin atmosphere: A place where competitiveness is encouraged, but interacting with the fascinating storyline is most important. Everyone should feel included and make new friends here!

“Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.”

I started the first draft of the signatures, what do you think? last three pages

“Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.”

Oooo that sounds good, once we decide if we are doing that I’ll create a post in the leader forum, I think a word goal would be better or if anything like something like 10k words = 1 tree, and so on

iinspirqtion

I apologize, what did you mean by 10k words = 1 /tree/? and it would be great if you could answer the other posts above ^^ /lh

hmm i feel like the font and graphics don't match with the darker vibe? i edited my signature on a new page to show more of what i was thinking of—it's a rough draft though!

i don't really think we need one, but it's up to you

love this <3

i think one studio would be best as we don't have many people, but word count groups would also work

storyline:
- do we need to figure out why the taking is happening?
- i think a word goal would work—so it would be something like hit __k words, tell leaders, receive letter with clue! maybe the leaders have been trying to save every generation of campers, but none have worked so far

I love your rendition of the signatures, I just made your name a bit bigger, and do you think that it's good like that?

- do we need to figure out why the taking is happening?

I don't think we do, since it's kind of like tragedy, which doesn't need an explanation we can just be mad and powerful, but having a backstory would be cool!

- i think a word goal would work—so it would be something like hit __k words, tell leaders, receive letter with clue! maybe the leaders have been trying to save every generation of campers, but none have worked so far

:0 yes! Maybe there could be like 10ish leaders (if possible) and then along with a letter they tell us their story about the Taking too so it also allows to piece together the backstory

Then I think we're good without another co ^^

yep! we should probably use the cabin colors, but it looks great otherwise :)

sounds good!! just let me know if we are officially planning to have leaders help us and I’ll post it in the leader forum!

yayyy forums are back—i'm not sure if we've submitted our cabin blurb yet? (just asking b/c luna posted it in the leader chat /nm)

that sounds good! maybe instead of ‘should’ (final sentence) we say ‘will’? so it sounds more assuring?

also here is my draft for the volunteer post

Hey Everyone! Tragedy is looking for around 10 or so volunteers to help with the storyline, this will mean (insert task - what will the role require them to do?). If you'd be up to participating in this, please let me know on my profile ((link to my pf)). Thanks again, have a great day <33

iinspirqtion

I'll post the blurb to moonlit right now, and the task they will have to do is that campers will go to their profile and ask for a diary page (I believe) that we will give them before hand + whatever they need to say on their opinion of us leaders and their view on the Taking + some backstory so that the campers get to piece it together slowly

“Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.”

iinspirqtion

Oh and Willow, it'd be great if you could post a draft or the finished version of the cabin thumbnail any time soon + a little introduction about yourself <3

Could both of you share your word goals with me so I can put it in the adding word studio?

I finally finished the signatueres, but the extension I use to upload images onto forums seems to not work anymore, so could either one of you download the three signatures as a gif on canva and then post them here?
