We could send anons . . . or we can use this thread as a trial run for our characters I guess? If we do leave it as a trial run, just don't reveal yourself too much. Perhaps foreshadow the fact that we are opening? (Kind of write like a certain anon that gave you a letter of a lady that wore suggestive clothing and said that they don't have a name yet, but to come back when they're open. wink) Now that I think of it, I think we should hold off on our opening till later. We're still planning on things and I still have some things I need to ask you guys (I'll put those on a different post later).
Yeah, since we're not quite through planning yet we could just do random anons first, but instead of saying we don't have a name we could use the initials: KY Café.
......O_O.... Might not want to do that....there is a brand of....item...a lotion or oil or something like that....used by couples....called KY....it is a nationally advertised sex enhancer (in america) >_< prolly better to use two letters from each word to avoid people thinking of that....

Is it possible for another person to do the same type of love if it is already claimed? I might claim phillia or agape, I just don't know how I'll do agape though . . .
As much as possible I wouldnt want to repeat types--it might get competitive, you know? cat_sweatdrop I think Hoshi wants philia already, so you could go for agape. Lemme suggest: agape is charity. It's easiest to associate with the Christian doctrine kind of love, or the "clean" kind of love, "I just want what will do you good." You could make this a little funny, with giving them silly stuff--or creepy, and gift them with gruesome little things.
Sounds kind of similar to phillia . . . . o.o Is it love out of kindness? Or is it kind of like brotherly / fatherly love? Can you elaborate it anymore? Or give some more examples? I'll Google search it later. > . >
Philia is friendship. Agape is a more general thing, I think. Yeah, kindness. You could be the maniacal gift-giver? cat_lol Or you could twist it and make your butler a hoarder/thief, claiming he'll be giving the stuff to other people?

1) A Storyline. Y'know it would be kind of cool to have a setting and a plot behind all of what we are doing. kind of like what is happening in the 10th annual ball, but perhaps change up the plot/ what the cafe looks like with each theme we do.
2) Appearances (not the way you look) Will we only appear duing the major holidays, whenever Rainy posts a creeper thread, or every event Gaia has to throw at us?
3) Merge with Rainy's Thread? Did anyone ask for an okay on this? o.o When Rainy posts up a creeper thread, are we going to have someone post under her post? Or will we let her edit the things? If we do have someone else post, we might want to make a mule so that the same person is posting every time and whoever is online at the time can post it.
4) Symbols. Are we still doing that spades, diamonds, hearts, and clubs idea with each one of them representing a certain thing?
5) Employees We still haven't decided on how many employees we want to have. Some of you guys have suggested various numbers, but what is our final number overall? Are we going to want to have a fair butler to maid ratio as well?
6) Contests? Yes, we are anoning. Yes, I know it's going a hole in our pockets, but why don't we hold one for the fun of it? Trial run it maybe? I was also thinking we could twist the contest a bit . . . The twist I was thinking of you ask? We could do a RNG contest with a set amount of numbers. One number is the grand prize. Most of the other numbers are blanks and a couple of them are "You get a letter from Anon #1". So whatever "anon number" you are, you get to send them a anon~ If we do decide to do this, we're going to set up some rules to it too . . . OR We can do a raffle. Although we're going to need a mule for this. ^^; If we make this idea happen, we can set up a price for each ticket depending on the item we are giving away.
1. I actually was thinking of putting, the very least, descriptions of the café, and access to it would differ depending on the occasion. Like, sometimes it would be found in a deserted street, sometimes in the middle of the forest. Check out this one I just made. As for a plot--well, it isn't easy coming up with one, connecting thing for a group of butlers and maids. I suggest we mill about and just serve people at first.
2. We have our HQ Guild thread, but aside from that--every event! And to make it easier to be associated with the Creepers, I guess just Rainy's threads.
3. A merge would be premature. Let's keep it simple for now cat_sweatdrop Then maybe later on we can.
4. From what I remember, the cards suits was for the basic theme. Since we already have that...we could still have symbols as signatures. Could. I dunno how we can manage that when there are more than four of us. I suggest we just keep the cards thing for a seasonal theme.
5. The final number is seven, iirc. We are currently at six, two maids and four butlers. We won't bother with the ratios.
6. An RNG contest would be nice, sure. But again, I say we keep it simple at first.
OKAY, here we go.
I think your more extravagant ideas are cool (by which I mean, YES I'D LOVE TO DO THAT) but let's save them for later. Like, the contest for Christmas, maybe? It'll give us time to raise moolah for the prize, too. And the story/plot for Valentine's next year, or some other event since the Anons are usually crazy active at Valentine's.

ONE basis/theme: types of love. - this "theme" is character concept. It will serve as our "uniform". - We're Creepers, so begin thinking of a way you can "corrupt" or "creeper-ize" whichever theme you pick. - I list here the types of love available:
a. storge (affection) - agni b. eros (romance/passion; may include but not necessarily sensual) c. philia (friendship) d. agape (charity) e. venus (sexual attraction) - Amu f. egophilia (love of self) g. Platonic (spiritual, inspiring)
Bluh! xp First I wanna say I'm sorry for not responding to all of these discussion posts. It's usually that I agree with what's being said or I have to think about what my opinion is so I don't answer. sweatdrop
Second, I've been having a hard time figuring out which of these loves would apply to a sadistic money-hoarder. The sadism part is kind of a perversion of Eros, I guess. But it's also in direct opposition to Agape (i.e. hurting instead of helping, taking instead of giving).
KuroKageHane
Maybe since you've got two personalities, egophilia would work better? I'm not sure how your split personas work though. Like will you switch between one and the other for lengths at a time, or would you switch frequently enough to actually have conversations/arguments with yourself and the guest? I guess what I'm asking is do the two personalities actually have some sort of relationship with one another? Love or hate, friendship or antagonism, etc.

Come to think of it, yeah I guess if you're a money hoarder agape would be very good and KKH, it would be refreshing to see a split-personality for egophilia instead of narcissism. cat_3nodding

I agree it might be confusing to separate philia and agape. It will require some more digging if we go this "love" route as the main template. If we run 24/7/365 it might get a little draining at keeping up appearances, so maybe it's best if it's just for each event/holiday? If we have our own thread/section of the guild it could be even easier to regulate, with [open] and [closed] tags so people know when to come in to expect things from the cafe. A set mule would be a must for this and any contests.
I am back home and can respond more than once per day! (Yay for no lag)
I second this~ 3nodding
Yay! Lag is annoying. XD

Lol, as much as I love giving stuff, I don't think I have enough gold to support my maniacal gift-giving anon. XD I could do that. ^^

1) Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. ^^ Well, we could just cut out the plot. It could become a hassle, since summer is already coming to an end and school is starting. > . > Just giving it a brief introduction with the theme should be good enough I believe. ^^
2) Alright. ^^
3) So no mule yet? o.o Because if we started a mule now, we could save up things for the cafe for future events. o.o
4) I guess we should keep it a seasonal thing.~ Well, the suits just describe the person. Kind of like saying "so and so" is better with problems, "so and so" gets flustered easy, etc.
5) Ah. Good to know. ^^
6)Yeah. ^^
Yeah, I know that. I'm just throwing out ideas for future events and seeing how you guys would like the idea. ^^ I think we should probably keep it simple (like you said) for the opening and then just add on the other awesome ideas for major events/ when anons are really active, that way we save up gold for the prizes. ^^

I just had this little idea...
What if we make our anons like a dating sim? Kinda like the RIG Love Charms (like this one) Gaia came up with?
For example (I shall use my Storge for this one):
Anon # 1: You're at the gates of a huge mansion overridden with vines and ivy. It doesn't look like anyone's been here in a long time...
But look! There's a light in one of the windows! You:
A. Investigate! You try to swing the gate open. B. Investigate! You climb over the wall.
Anon #2 (Let's say B is picked): It was fairly easy climbing over the wall, but you tore holes in your skirt in the process. You walk up to the mansion doors cautiously. They swing slightly open at your touch--to your surprise, the inside of the manor is polished and clean, the warm afternoon sunlight filtering through the windows and flooding the huge hall you find yourself peeking into. Suddenly, someone speaks.
[insert art here]
"Good afternoon, Mademoiselle. I have been waiting for you."
A. WTF RUN! B. You nod shyly. C. "Who are you?"
----- And so on and so forth. Since we have lots of time before the next event (Halloween) maybe we that's enough time to make arts and storylines/plots for it?
I have a mule I might be able to donate to the cause....just gotta check it's still alive.... EDIT:
They still exist! Now, to get them into this guild.... EDIT2:
Named Jalkn, currently has 25k+ on them
Yay a mule! cat_blaugh Is it this one? Imma send it a Friend Request if so.
Why yes, yes it is. blaugh Though....I'm going to clear out it's friends list. That way it'll only have creepers and suchlike, not those random people I friended so long ago.
