I saw that you made some edits to the banners, they look amazing! I think they would work pretty well, if it's alright with you guys I think it could be the final edit!

thank you! <33

honestly the idea of the pfps is also really cool, is it something similar to what you have to your pfp except that it's more of a combination of shapes I assume?

Hmm yeah, something like that :thinking: perhaps something like a coloured-in version of these sketches I made:
I'm not entirely happy with the design SKKS so if either of you would like to put your own spin on them please do! :D

:0 I really like that concept! We could do different geometrical figures, and then have different colors for the body/shape and the background? would that be good?

also campers are out! would you like us to invite them together or should I or one specific person invite all of them? I'll start adding their info in the wcg though to make it easier for me later on <3

here's the list to make it easier to access!

thank you! <3 i could try to come up with some demo pfps for ourselves ^^ is there a specific shape and colour scheme you'd like for your pfp?

as for campers, yay!!! it would be nice to divide up the camper list so we can all notify them for our intro message, how about something like:

Mist swirls around you, obscuring the details of your surroundings. Perhaps you've been here for a long time, or perhaps you've just arrived. In any case, you are now (or always have been) part of the Bi-Fi Chasm in this session of SWC March 2025.

And then maybe a more enthusiastic follow-up comment saying who the leaders are, where the main cabin and bi-fi cabin are, and with our cabin guide and the main camper rules <3

Since camp is starting up, we should probably get a priority list of the things that need to be done before March 1st ^^

I'm a bit swamped with work this week, but I'll try to work on the pfps and maybe the spreadsheet <3

Color Palette

iinspirqtion wrote:

I like what you have for the ideas of the color palette, would it be alright if you were to send us a revised version of the palette just to make it easier since you have more of a vision about what you're talking about than we are, so that would be nice to see because then we could finalize the palette and submit it to the hosts <3

Here you go: https://coolors.co/c4ced0-cca7a2-798a5f-100a0a-090c2c
I didn't tweak it very much beyond what I already said last time; I didn't end up using the gray because the rosy brown added a nice touch of saturation imo. I know it's been a while, so maybe this is too late but I figured I should follow through just in case!

Would you mind incorporating them into a copy of the current cabin thumbnail so we can see what it looks like in practice?

I'm so sorry, I missed this! I'll do that tomorrow. ^^

Pfps
I'm done coding the pfp creator; I still need to do the finalized art, though. I adore the sketches Wari did, so I'll likely model them on those, if that's alright? I'll add a few more probably, plus effects and accessories and all that, but the base models would look great like that, I think!

Scavenger Hunt / Easter Eggs
EGGS YES THIS SOUNDS SO FUN :0 I really like the idea of it being a fun side quest type of thing. They'd have to be recognizable enough for people to know when they found them without being overly disruptive, of course, but I think it could be done. Would they be tied into the storyline, or just a bonus? Also, do we have the storyline fully scripted out yet, or are the ideas still fairly loose?

Banners

iinspirqtion wrote:

I finished a draft of the banners, what do you guys think of them?

The banners look awesome!! I'm okay with that being the final product.

Miscellaneous
It seems like the areas we're currently working on are:

• storyline (group discuss?)

• pfp creator (Wild, with ideas from Wari; in progress)

• banners (Em; done)

• forum signatures (?)

• Easter eggs (Em and Wari; in progress)

• QOTDs/AOTDs (group discuss; need to complete a list)

• random object of the day (everyone; in progress)

• weekly activities (done; may need to refine?)

• cabin guide (done; may need to refine?)

I'm probably forgetting about a bunch of stuff, so feel free to correct me if I missed something! And let me know if there's anything else you need me to work on; I should have plenty of time in the next few days, so I'll be mainly focusing on the pfp creator unless you say otherwise. The spreadsheet already looks great, so I don't think anything major needs to be worked on there.

sounds good!

I think the color palette looks pretty good, and I'll post the banners project today so we can get that out! we should finish the cabin guide before camp starts - post it, and invite our campers. The storyline we can continue finalizing but cabin guide is our top priority along with the pfps currently!

is this split good?

for the finalized messages, the first message will be:

Mist swirls around you, obscuring the details of your surroundings. Perhaps you've been here for a long time, or perhaps you've just arrived. In any case, you are now (or always have been) part of the Bi-Fi Chasm in this session of SWC March 2025.

second message will have to be edited based on who's inviting who so make sure to not copy and paste it like it is:

Welcome! I'm (name) and I'm super excited to be one of your leaders this session <3 If you have any questions pertaining to the session, please feel free to ask! Along with that, here are some helpful links that you will use during your experience as a camper. The main cabin: n/a, the chasm (bi-fi cabin): https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/36194023/, and the secondary world (word adding studio): https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/36290018/, again we are so pumped to have you here, so let's get started!

if we can finish the cabin guide asap we can also add that too!

we can also later on shorten the 2nd message if it becomes too long <3

oh and wild make sure to add your intro to the cabin guide!

everything wild said sounds good, and i agree on the priorities you guys set <3 fhe camper split also looks good!

for the storyline slide of the cabin guide, would you like to write it, Em? I think you have the best idea of the world we're creating, and I love your writing style when you talk about it :D

As for activities, perhaps something like:
Apart from the main cabin activities we mentioned in previous slides, we also have some special activities just for bi-fi cabin members! Every day, there's a QOTD you can answer to get to know your cabinmates on random topics! :D

We also have a weekly challenge for you to complete with your cabinmates to progress through the storyline! For the first week, this will consist of completing a set number of main cabin dailies, weeklies, and QOTDs as a cabin <3 Not interested in the main cabin daily/weekly topics, or just want to focus on your own writing this session? No problem! You can write {x amount} of your own words instead of doing a main cabin daily, and {y amount} of your own words instead of doing a main cabin weekly!

Later in the session, we'll also have special bi-fi writing prompts that you can complete. These will cover different aspects of writing bizarro fiction, absurdism, abstractness, and slipstream. These will be fun ways to grow your skills as a writer as well as contribute to the storyline!

More challenges will come in the weeks ahead, so stay tuned! <3

oh also for the invitation message, any ideas for in-character ways to avoid them getting marked as spam by Scratch :eyes: we could put a bunch of random symbols at the start in different orders, or something :eyes: or include a random message or the camper's name :thinking:

I think the easiest way is to just put their name but symbols do sound cool! for x and y can we go with 350 words for a daily and 2000 for a weekly?

I finished the signatures! here they are for you guys:

those word amounts sound good! <3 and omg I love the signatures! :star_struck:

also, it's the day before camp starts, so I'm ready to start inviting campers when you guys are! <3

I'll start inviting mine! I'm not sure if wild is currently active so wild, if you don't respond before camps tarts I can invite your campers for you!

I've invited my campers! <3

also I've made some edits to the spreadsheet <3 you should be able to use it to copy and paste the word count group description now!

hey guys! just a ping about our subtheme for the mbc, it's a board game and I'm thinking of the game of life? if you guys have any other suggestions please tell me!
