So, I'm picking up the idea of an AT thread, again.
I even have a thread in the testing forum to set it up!
And, I figured we could just have a thread that lists our raters with little biographies.
ALSO! We have the issues of rates to think up, and we need a title!
I like "Happiness is a warm gun," and Hirun had an idea that I totally forgot right now.
Russian roulette could be random rate.
G-team could be how/who your avatar gets saved from the sniper.
Crazy killer could be how your avatar is killed.
Sniped could just be a 1-10 rate?
Maybe Sniped with Silver bullets or scope? could be 1-10 with suggestions?
News Reporter could be what newspaper article is wrote about your avatar.

None of these are FORSURE, except maybe Russian roulette...
So, feedback?
I pmed everyone who signed up for the At thread in Tootsie's last thread.
but if anyone else is interested, speak up!

I think G-Team is lame, just change it to "How would you save yourself from the sniper/ck"?
is less sg themed but no need to make it exactly the same plus is just better.

Sniped with a scope could be suggestions and rate? silver bullets makes less sense.
we need russian roulette for srs.

NR I don't love/hate.

other ideas included "Flowers of Blood" and "That Warm Feeling isn't Love".

Silver bullets are stronger/better bullets, Pixie. So, it would make sense with the sniper.
BUT I do like scope better.

I actually like G-team because it related to the gaia plot. And even though the gaia plot is lame, I think people will appreciate it. :3

@HIRUN: That warm feeling isn't love was the one I really liked. x:

News Reporter could be obituaries, maybe?

no I know it would make sense with sniper.
just wouldn't tie in with SUGGESTIONS. scope ties in with suggestions. "I looked at you closer through my scope and now I can be more detailed about your avatar" whereas bullets are just "I can kill you DEADER!"

love obits NR idea. <3

The way I looked at it was that you're getting shot with a higher quality of bullet, so you're getting a higher quality rate.
But as I said- scope IS better.

Choic: Loves it.

"On Target" puts your avatar in this spotlight sort of thing. Maybe a weekly avatar thing that we can change from time to time.

Dunno. Just thowing ideas around. I don't want us to do too much. Just your basic rate thread with maybe a little more.

Posted: Sun Oct 11, 2009 9:24 pm

I like On target for the best avatars of the week, definitely.
So, do we have enough rates?
Also- what about a title for the thread?

Maybe "Death by @#$%"
We need a death by rate. But then again CK covers that.

As for people who are going to become raters we should fill out some sort of form. The basics: username, about us, etc etc.

Yeah! I think that if people are interested they should definitely tell me that they want to be raters, and post/pm a profile that I can put up on the thread.
I won't give a specific format for the bio, because I'll just let whoever put whatever they want to say in it.
I think the CK covers the death by rate.

I was thinking about the sniper with silver bullets, and I was thinking since scope IS the better choice, maybe we could have Sniped' with silver bullets be a HARSHER rate?
And then maybe have a Sniper's special which could be a harsh 1-10 rate with suggestions?
If not, whatever. We really have a bunch of rates, already.
OH and in whoever's biography they could also say that they have a special rate that only they do- I'm totally cool with that.

We definitely need a name, though, before we move forward.

the CK rate can be called "death by ___"

I think as for rates we should have 5-7 normal ones and then have a specialty rates section. Like anyone who wants can think of 1 or 2 rates that are abstract and individual and not needing to stick with the theme.

like.

thread rates [post for these and anyone will respond!]
this rate
this rate
another rate
gosh our rates are clever
rate rate rate

specialty rates [these are rates that are specific to a specific rater!]
omg look at how monochrome I am - photo
this other clever rate - this other clever rater
isn't pixie so rad - pixie obv.
listen to how weeaboo I am! - like anyone in the sg, srs.

but yeah. I think would be cute and fun and give us a chance to break out of our theme a little.

we also need some sort of rate limit. Like no more than 2 normal rates and a specialty rate or something?

Right! That's basically what I was thinking, too. That's what I was getting at with saying that people could include a special rate in their biography if they want.
Organization-wise it does make more sense to slap it all in one post.

Right now, rate-wise, we have:
Sniped: 1-10
Sniped with a scope: 1-10 and suggestions
News Report: Your obituary.
Crazy Killer/(Death by): How your avatar is killed.
Russian Roulette: Random rate
