Welcome to Gaia! ::

My minis SN: Rathurue
Things I liked about the meta: Weapon Synthesis, Side-Quests, CoOP Battles, Achievement System, Battle Arena...but the thing I liked most in this Meta is the ENDING. It was so freakishly beautiful (complete with The End of Evangelion theme playing on my head while reading it) because it tied the loose ends from the Kingdoms Meta. Also the Weapon=Minipet conversion. Also the random FACEPLANT joke. Also the 666 rolls. Too many fun things!
Things I would like to see implemented in Future Metas: Heart Log, Battle Arena, Weapon/Item Creation in general and Q&As!

Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: More RE slots please...JK, JK. Missed that because I simply didn't revisit announcement thread and going into Battle Thread after completing the Rare weapons. But in order to minimize the chance of some derp like me missing out an announcement, could all updates on later Meta made into Guild Announcement? The Weapon to Minis conversion was one...

Thanks for all the GMs, Artist, Staffs and players on this Meta! Without participation of all sides, this keyboard-breaking event can't run this smoothly!

Now excuse me while I'm trying to log all my posts and collecting those to make a one-shot novel... wink

Things I liked about the meta:

show spoilerhide spoiler

EVERYTHIIIINGGGGGGGGG but really, I loved how the whole heart log and battles (and I'm sure the number of characters people were allowed to enter into the meta) allowed each person to control how much suffering they wanted to take on. The heart logs made everything so much easier to keep track of everything, especially when digging up posts would be so painful with all the participants.

And the co-op battles allowed people who weren't able to find groups to join in which was so nice and THE DOUBLE LOOT DEF. ENCOURAGED IT (or maybe it was to prevent sniping idk)

The 48 hour time frame went really well with the daily task + time to do sidequests/battles/other stuff. ;w;

LOVED THE STORY. Some of the stuff I didn't quite understand because I'm not too sure what is going on with the hunters, but that graphic thing zoo made at the end helps so much ;w;

The side tasks that were like the Wall....had no idea what was going on but they were understandable without prior knowledge. I just wish I knew what was going on though, because all the people who knew were going SO MANY FEELS

Very newbie friendly, especially with the blast chat and the Q n A (I don't think I would have survived without either of those two). Also the whole concept of everyone having lost their memories (and probably in combination of it being more soloish) well....by the end of that first week, I couldn't distinguish between newbies and vets.

The meta was really really really well organized, especially considering how many participants there were so HUUUGEEEEE kudos to the staff ;w;

^put in spoiler because not really anything new I think and you guys have to read it and I ramble so....

Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: Uhh...I felt like some of the replies for stuff got repetitive like for 999 boss and doing the quests 3 times (you can see how the replies got progressively shorter lol)

MORE ALPACAS PLEASE. Never enough alpacas.

Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: I feel like the gold and possibly the purple worlds/tasks got slightly neglected because they took more time AND I FEEL LIKE THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN BECAUSE THEY WERE REALLY REALLY WELL CRAFTED. Or maybe it just felt that they were neglected I dunno.

WELL I DON'T THINK I SAID ANYTHING THAT HASN'T ALREADY BEEN SAID sorry ;w; BUT HUGE THANKS TO THE STAFF FOR RUNNING SUCH AN AMAZING META ESPECIALLY ALL THAT EFFORT PUT IN AND ALL THOSE PREMADES and is that more stuff I see on the minipets website how do you guys do it I don't even

If it weren't for school starting soon, I would be sitting in front of the computer, staring blankly at the screen, wanting more meta.

Things I liked about the meta:
- 48 hours for tasks because there was less chance to miss things despite being in a different timezone
- Easily solo-able plot without feeling like character progress/development was compromised due to lack of time/etc for group RP; I liked that Part 2 tasks, for example, had a solo option as well as a group option. That way, people who might not have much time could go with the solo option but not feel left behind/left out. ;;
- Announcement thread was A+ since it helps people get back on track!
- Heart log, even though when I first saw it, I was like akgsagskaks WHY
- Co-op battles as an option saved time + gave way to random interactions!
- Blast chat was nice even though I got into it late. xD I felt that it kept other chatter mostly out, so newbies don't feel too intimidated/left out by people talking about things they might not understand... At least, that's how I feel about it! Maybe the individual (Amity/Deus/Pony) chats helped to keep the Meta chat focused on meta things, but it was nice for everyone to have a common ground (meta) to talk about.
- Story line that is relatively newbie-friendly; I didn't feel like I needed a ton of background information to get started/into the meta. Although TiH, being an ongoing story, meant that it does help to be here from the beginning, this meta didn't alienate the people who, for example, do not have a character or hadn't been around long enough to know about Merlin/Excalibur/Arthur/7Kings/other things. Like I didn't play in 7Kings due to school, but I was still able to enjoy the Meta without feeling too lost.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:
- Solo-able without compromising character development
- Co-op battles, if there are battles
- At least 48 hours for tasks, where possible, especially for tasks requiring a lot of thought
- It might be nice to have more of a balance of Amityville/Horsemen/Deus NPCs so characters/players from all factions can have a little something extra to geek over/about? But I guess this meta seemed to be more about Merlin/Excalibur/Arthur, so it would make sense to be more about Deus...? It's not a major thing though. I still enjoyed the meta with my student because side tasks like The Wall, although focused on Clarice's memories, also focused on personal solos.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback:
I actually liked that every character was given the opportunity to forget a memory/go back to clean slate, but I'm pretty sure that would be unrealistic to be in every meta... It just worked out well as the finale of THIS meta. But yeah, just saying that I liked the idea! <3

This meta was glorious ok ;; Thank you for all the effort and hard-work!

Things I liked about the meta: 48 hours - so beautiful I could just cry; especially since I was juggling 5 characters >>;;
Battle Arena - I really loved it this time! With the loot and weapons, I had a goal to aim for. (Although I think I went a bit crazy with the rare weapons /coughs) I especially loved the co-op. It made finding battles much easier and quicker!
Side Tasks - I liked the balance between dice-rolling and writing that the tasks had. When I got tired of writing I could dice roll, and when I didn't feel like dice rolling I could write! I especially loved how the written tasks explored memories and let me figure out my characters more. My only regret is not having enough time to write memories for all of my characters. QQ
Heart Log - It was a bit overwhelming at first, but once I was caught up with all of the initial activities/achievements it was much easier to update it and I love it! Nice way to keep track of things. C: Especially since I was hopping all over the place this meta, haha.
Solo/Group Tasks - Absolutely wonderful. Since I was forever character juggling, the option to do things solo was a savior. And if I had time I could do other tasks/group things!
Random NPC Interaction - A+ I loved it. I will forever remember Red barging into my battle thread. :V <3 I'm also super super grateful to staff playing along with 7 kings at the pizza parlor. Definitely one of my favorite moments in the entire shop so far. <3
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: 48 hours forever and ever, please. I'd also like to see I guess an option to just PRP? I suppose I could sort of PRP in the battle RPs or hop to an exploration thread, but the exploration threads were only for a part of the meta and for the most part I (and others) were more focused on dice rolling/speeding our way through the task than RPing. More Amity or Horseman NPCs. It was great to see the Deus NPCs, but I was actually looking for more development in my students/horseman, and the Deus focus made it a bit hard to push my agenda. u_u
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: idk man this was a pretty A+ meta overall and I really enjoyed it!

Things I liked about the meta: Battles, Journals(keeping track of stuf~), Memory Solos, pretty much all of the main tasks were AMAZING. I like that we got some neat after effects to with memories. Side tasks I WISH I had more time for, the ones I read were amazing. I just never had time for them. ;A;
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: I know we try to give a fair amount of time, but I liked the 72 hours more for the getting main tasks done. It's a matter of trying to keep things going, but when it went to 48 hours I had trouble finishing my tasks and felt more stressed? 72 felt like enough time to get the more involved tasks done. (Ones with longer solos and such.) I think 72 hours for longer more involved RP stuff is better amount of time? OvO I think the 72 hours gives people with higher end RL stuff like school/work more time to really delve into main tasks while also having time to try side quests and such. 48 hours for shorter things(like getting 5 fragment pieces ect) was fine, but when it really involved coming up with a long RP and if those 48 hours fell on time when I worked both days I was like ';A; can't do it' sometimes. I managed, but I was stressing a lot, so some of them the 72 hours might have been nicer. Just sort of gauge how much time it might take to finish a task. Gauntlet and Travel were easier less RP intensive so 48 is fine on those, but yea...
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: IT WAS REALLY FUN AND I ENJOYED IT LOTS! My only regret is I didn't have time to do more because uhg WORK WHY!? I friggin loved the story and getting to take part in it! Thank you all so much. ;A;
PS: Lil is right can I have Captain Prissy back? Best horse ever.

Things I liked about the meta:

• The opportunity for character development, especially for quest characters, was really interesting and A+. I liked reading everyone's solos and especially creeping on their tea memories. There was a nice level of interactivity there without actively putting my fingers in anyone's character development, which was nice because I felt like I could contribute/react without fearing messing anything up.
  
• Heart log A+ would meta journal again
  
• Choice of solo/co-op fights was excellent
  
• The length felt right even though I still flagged out near the middle. That was all me--but I feel like the relatively short IRL timespan helped me stick around longer than I could have otherwise
  
• The amount of things that were optional. I would have liked to do more but didn't feel like I was hurting myself not doing more.

Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:

• More PRP opportunities. I felt like the side areas like Rico's and whatnot were a good idea in theory but didn't really end up getting utilized much because the push felt very much like it was towards soloing/triggering events. The interactivity that did happen usually revolved around dice, which is fine, but some breathing room for non-dice PRP would have been welcomed enthusiastically. As it is it always felt like you were going to get tied up in an area or sucked into another big event before you could get into the groove of an RP.
  
• As mentioned above, a more "step by step" approach in general would probably have been helpful--as a new person I found myself hanging back a lot and waiting for someone else to go in front of me so I wouldn't screw anything up. I just think maybe when in doubt, dumb it down even more. It's less that things are inherently unclear as it is that we don't want to make assumptions and mess something up.
  
• More solid deadlines like Prox mentioned; also, maybe a more solid idea of what post-meta rewards are. I think a lot of us were thrown for a loop when Goddesses didn't actually figure into part two/play a big role, and also I know that the function of post-meta weapon into artifact conversion was kept vague to avoid spoilers but I constantly felt like I was in a panic of indecision about what weapons to go for and why since I didn't know what would be happening to/with them. If I'd known that it was a straight rarity-to-aesthetics conversion I may have approached some things differently.
  
• A pre-meta "backstory primer" for new people would have been appreciated. It could be optional, just a really really short cliff's notes version of things that had happened that were going to be broadly relevant to the plot, because I had to go get some stuff cleared up before I realized what had actually happened by the end of the meta~

Additional comments, suggestions or feedback:
A+ event overall, thank you for constantly being patient with everyone's questions, adjusting mechanics where it was needed on the fly, and putting on a fab show for all of us to participate in. Also The Wall prompts were some of the most grade A creepypasta I have ever read, ever.

Things I liked about the meta:
- I liked the battles and the gathering of items for loot and being able to synthesize that loot into neato things. It was fun and it gave me a goal to work for along with trying to get into battles with folks that I could RP against.
- I liked that there was a lot of solo-able instances, stuff that made me focus on my character more than what everyone else is doing. I didn't have to worry about the immediate result of my character getting upset because Muffy the Rogue had stolen their jar of jam thus scarring them for life. (idek don't ask.)
- I liked the achievements and heartlogs, just stuff that helped me keep track of everything that my character(s) had been doing.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:
- I didn't realize til toward the end of the event that people were apparently able to do just PRPs instead of battling all day everyday? Or at least it didn't occur to me as a question I could ask when it became important. If it was in the rules of things that were okay to do, I must have missed it.
- Other ways to get loot and achievements (if this is a thing that is done again) through other soloish events that aren't just tasks...Like hunting/gathering mechanics might be nice? I am just thinking off the cuff and this sort of thing may not be a realistic implementation so .. Yeah. XD
- Other than that. IDK. I am open to just about anything! WHEE!!! === (/owo)/
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback:
I like that people could take away their own thing from this meta but I am not majorly fond of the memory aspect myself mostly because I was content with the memories my characters had and had no real desire to change them.

In a sense this meta was good for me because I was able to just go with the flow and do whatever, I was not too worried about the timetable of certain events. Any issues I may have had might have been as a result of taking on more than I could handle (signing up too many characters to where I had no energy to keep track of them all).

Thank you all for a nice experience. <3
