Like a shooting star across the midnight sky...

Mhmmm, Yay! Saki's crazii chain of thoughts has been approved of!

OKAY. Now I can really get rolling <3

We need more contests. Its a widely accepted fact already. People are lazy to invite their friends to the guild [sadness] xD, so we'll just have to pull all the strings to get them to like it SO much that they just HAVE to invite all their friends!!

Mhmmmm... I just had a queerly interesting idea. We could have writing contests. Like mini contests where you have write a certain scenario. Like, waiting at a stop sign. Unlimited creativity, like whether you're walking or you're in a bus or a car or a motorcycle, etc. And since we're all literate, here creativity can go to its limits and we can give a prize to the most creative entry and so on.

We could have theme based contests too. Like for Halloween (sp?) we could have a special contest on like, who can draw the creepiest jack-o-lantern using ONLY MS Paint... <3

Other stuff like the most creative original RP plot could win stuff. Or most active non-mod-member, or we could even use reverse psychology and give member titles like: least-active member, most-unoriginal and embarrass people into pulling their acts together... xD

Annnddd....

We need more pizaaaz! >.< Sakiii just likes that word. Say it ten times fast. Pizzaazz!! *snaps a picture* What I mean is, we need stuff that makes us unique, maybe a thread about talking about ourselves? A random thread like 'guess the RPing Gems member' and interactive stuff that'll keep members out of the Forums Chatterbox for the most part and keep them checking here for replies. XP

At the same time, we need more pizaaz over at the forums, too. Like, I got invited here, but who actually FOUND this place searching through the guilds? Theres a million gazillion threads on 'OMG I can't find any good Literate Rps' and 'I'm literate wanna one-on-one' and 'OMG Gaia Forums have no Literacy' rants that we can stalk out and drag over here. We could assign like 'RPing Gems Detectives' or something, a group of volunteers (like the co-GM volunteers) that can search up these kinds of threads, check out the person and invite them to bring their oh-so-great-literacy here.

Annnddd....My train of thought is spiraling out of control! Too many ideas!! XD MmmmmMmmm...Maybe if we gave certain privileges based on active-ness... Like if you're successfully holding out three rps at one time that are active, you're allowed to access something in particular? Or maybe like if you're an active part of three rps (random numbers) then you're privileged to make your own rp? Stuff like that?

Now I shall wait for your input before I ramble onwards and scare you off..

>.<

Hope at least SOME of this helps.

I could easily run a contest, organize prizes, adminster judges, and such for any of those ideas, E.
She could be my helper. ^.^
Because sometimes I need help with ideas, and I'll need a second to help me run the contests...

Fair enough. I'll make a note in the Rules thread to recommend, but not require, to have a co-GM. The only problem I see is that the front page of a roleplay whose founder is gone can never be updated.

Ok, I'll get to work on that announcement now! =D Usually, I give the members a week after I've sent a PM to be more active.

...so fricken' awesome. ::.


Mew!! Does that mean we can have Crusade back? *gets all hopeful and excited* That would be so incredibly appreciated! The front page really doesn't need to be changed, and if we decide it's a must, we'll start the rp over again with the link idea that was suggested. Right now I just don't have the time to remake the splash page with all the pictures and such.

Oh, and just a note. During finals week and sometimes midterms, I might not check the guild for posts. I'll try to warn whatever thread I'm in to keep that in mind when it comes up. Unfortunately as much as I would love to procrastinate through rp, tests come first sad

Currently midterms are starting to subside. I'm just waiting on someone to post in the Muse before I can, then I should be back on a semi regular basis until the next batch of testing.

p.s. I have actually invited ALL of my friends at one point or another to the guild, but only Thorne really stuck around. *tear* And I'm not on much, so I don't make new friends often.. *double tear* But I would love to see new faces! Maybe more contests would do the trick smile

Sure. All you have to to is post in it, so I can get it out of the "inactive" forum.

Maybe contests for creating cool new guild banners, icons, or other advertising stuff? Sort of get guild members involved in a "show your guild pride" contest and encourage everyone to put their own guild created paraphenalia in their signatures and such. I'm usre you have probably done this before, but it's always fun to do again. And it would be nice to see every signature that posts here with a guild banner or mention smile

Lilly and Sweet are in charge of contests, so direct all suggestions to them. Posting here is fine, too. =D

Who's that girl...


Yayness! We have officially made progress! ^.^

Now are you going to assign those Special-Detectives? Hehe =P

Annnddd... One more thing! XP


...Where's she from?...

Maybe we could have like hmm... Special holidays where everybody gets together in some place in towns or rally or etc. Like unique-to-the-guild holidays? It'd make it very personal, then.

Just another random suggestionnnn....


... No, she can't be the one <3

I'd like that, only because I have a period in my name, it will not let me talk in towns. As long as everyone knew to look in the text window, however, I'm sure that would work out. =)

I think it sucks. 'cause when strangers try to have a conversation with me, they think I'm ignoring them. xD

This is just sad.
Only eighteen replies on roll call?
And two people entering the contest?
We have to do something!

Oh yeah, there were also no winners on invite contest. It's over. -sigh-
