Welcome to Gaia! ::

Perhaps something similar to the Catastrophe game? Like one where people could post something about RL pets (or if they don't have pets, a dream pet) and colorists would choose?

A super special Anniversary event where the available Carou are Cosplays...OF ALL THE STAFF MEMBERS.

This needs to happen. >8U
WITH IRL/GAIAVATAR/PERSONALITY EDITIONS AHHHH.

1) I support the MLP event idea xD

2) Game Suggestion//
in another one of my favorites B/C shops they would do 2 things I liked. One was which a livestream was hosted and there were..10? questions and the users participating would join and lets say the first question was..
COLOR. If if there are six users viewing and participating they would type
black, green, teal, pale pink, neon green, rose red..then the colorist would use an online (not gaia) random generator and generate a random number between 1-6 (having numbered the color choices 1)black 2) green etc...), and the number that came up would be the carou's main color etc...
things like that We do a game like that here, too. P: We call 'em Franken Pets 'cause we're awesome. Though I know that different colorists have different methods of choosing which suggestions are slapped onto a pet as well. Because we're awesome like that as well. DON'T YOU LIKE MY LAZY REPLIES AHHH. Dnw to post. Editing is so much more funnnn.

3) CYO, which is color your own. They would let us have the file and color on it BUT NOT EVER NO WAY EVER a** edits. When we were done coloring we had to PM it and put it in the cert forum ASAP and there would be a small fee since we did use their lines and there was a limit of 3 that we could make..1 being for ourselves and the other ones given away NOT GAMED AWAY gifted :3

so yup ^^

(PS an owl event doesnt sound too bad either lawlawls )
OWLS YES AHHH. /sucker for animals in general

posting this in here because I agree with the ideal.

Okay, so... maybe this is just weird and crazy, but it's a little idea I got ;w; b

An RP event/game/contest/whatever, where everyone who wishes to can enter one of their carous. Now, it's important that they can only enter ONE SINGLE carou each, because;

Step two is to randomly match these carous togeather! Exactly how you do it is up to you, but there's always the classing with putting notes in a hat/bag and just drawing them randomly xD But y'know, whatever works for you ^w^

Now that they're all matched up (either two and two or possibly three, in case there's an unever number of entries), the fun can begin <3 The participants get togeather with their new partner in crime to set up their RP thread in the guild and decide who starts and watnot, and then they're all ready to go!

I had in mind a certain theme when I came up with the idea, but you could of course do just about anything 3nodding My idea was a picnic >w< You'd write something short up, like "The RP begins with each carou waiting on someone that never shows up, with a basket full of goodies and a cozy little blanket. But by accident, they stumble upon another lonely carou who's waiting on someone who also failed to show up. They decide to enjoy their fine day without them, and instead join forces with their fellow stranger for the best day ever! ...Or will it really be that great?"

Now, they'll have untill a certain date to enjoy their little RP, and when the time limit is past, they can keep going if they so wish, but it of course won't be judged. And when judging, you simply go on how interesting it was to read, how well the characters were played out, and whatever there is to judge, basicly xD

Spending some time being trollbound to Aywas, I realised how fun a random breeding even would be >w< <3
People could enter a carou of their own choice, possibly allow one male and one female entry per person,
and when the entering time is up, each colourist that likes to join in makes a random drawing for two carous,
one from the males pile and one from the females, and then breed them all derpingly!
Like with The Drinking Game or Eggnog drawings on Aywas <3
And if anybody asks how, let's say they all just attended at the same open bar party emotion_dowant

I'd like to see events revolved around...childhood nostalgia. Something from out past that always made us feel happy, and makes us smile when we think about it.
Or, y'know, just make us feel hella old.

Electrical Doo-hickeys
-Pets with old video game themes[like 8-bit old]
-In addition to the above, pets themed around game controllers through the years
-A NOKIA PHONE PET [- shot'd -]
-And/or phones through the years--That big blocky radio thing, Nokia, flip, touch screen...

Childhood Items
-Things like a security blanket, a pacifier, those dumb bows we had to wear, an old raggedy doll we carried everywhere...

Childhood Dreams
-Remember when we got asked 'what do you want to be when you grow up'? So we have pets like astronauts, presidents, and teachers, but maybe make the clothes larger than the pets for that...'dress-up game' feel.



And, in contrast, perhaps and event that is the opposite of childhood. Adulthood~!

-Pets based around alcoholic drinks like martinis.
. . .Yeah, that's all I got.
