Things I liked about the meta: I liked the idea of the heart logs. I missed the entire meta after I signed up but I kept up with it by reading though and really sad that RL ate me. The whole meta in general was awesome I wish I could have seen the battle system in person, because that looked awesome.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: I think that everything in this meta and previous meta's are always amazing. I wish there was a tad bit more time in between the "events" I watched some rp's that seemed a little rushed due to time constraints but I completely understand why they would be needed
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Staff is always always amazing. And I wish I could have actually plaid Lumi through this because it looked awesome ^^

Things I liked about the meta: EVERRRRYTTHHIIINGGGGG!! Hehe! This was my first meta and I really did enjoy it! One of the reasons I love TiH is the ability to explore my characters and their personalities/who they are and this meta definitely helped me flesh them out more. The forum battle system was amazzzing, and the Co-Op addition even moreso, it was really a fun way to unwind from the heavy RP of the main tasks, and a good way to meet other characters if you so chose! The Heartlogs were definitely a plus, it made it very easy to keep track of things your character had done, instead of having to hunt through a ton of pages to find single post, very handy. C: The achievements too were really cool, and I really really loved that they were optional and not required. It definitely helped make it less overwhelming to know you could just focus on the main tasks if you had little time. I definitely felt like there was a healthy balance of solo/co-op roleplay tasks, and things like the tea-logs, where you could respond to others memories, were particularly cool, because it made us able to interact memory-wise together, and break up the wall of solo memories a bit. The AU worlds in the white task were also amazing for this!

I also really liked that despite there being parts being hunter-related, the meta really tried to tie both Halloween & Deus together. I think maybe more Halloween lore/npc type things might have been appreciated during the earlier parts of the meta, but the ending ORP at Halloween was really really cool to see, and it's awesome to see both Amity and Deus getting new mysterious plots *___* Especially plots that sort of point potentially towards more inter-faction interaction. ;D So yay, big thumbs up! (Also I really loved the whole lost memory aspect/no faction ties of this event, I got to roleplay with hunters, horseman and halloweeners with both my Amity and my Hunter characters, so that was really, really cool and also is super helpful in creating inter-faction plots with Player Characters after meta)

Ohh, also the announcement thread was excellent. It made it so easy to keep track of things.

[edit] +1 for the picture book synopsis xDD very handy!

Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: The only thing I could really suggest was something already mentioned, re: step-by-step instructions. It's not that the instructions given weren't clear or good, but reading things on the internet can leave a lot of interpretation in terms of intent/meaning and it can be difficult to forge ahead when you don't want to misunderstand what's going on/what you have to do.

Basically treat us like 5-year-olds and assume we don't know anything. xD

And of course, if any of the good things I mentioned above came back, that would totally be cool too... :D

Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Thank-you admins, gms, all staff and everyone who played in the meta for making it just such an amazing first meta for me and a wonderful experience all-around. ;__; TiH is just so inclusive and amazing and the amount of work that everyone puts into everything makes my jaw drop in awe, I just, you are all SO AWESOME <3 Here's to a great shop, and many more magnificent metas! :D Thank you so much <3

Things I liked about the meta:
- I really loved the heart logs, normally I suck at logging and keeping track of things but the heart logs made it easy and now I'll have one spot I can go back to if I need it.
- The achievement system was also really great I liked the balance of achievements possible for either someone soloing or group efforts
- Again I have to say the balance between stuff you could solo and group stuff was GREAT
- Extensions on things for RP completion sake was very nice
- The GM announcement thread was INCREDIBLY helpful as usual
- I liked that while there was a minipet redeem aspect it wasn't a huge 'you'll only be able to get these from the meta if you do all the things!' thing.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:
- All the good listed above +
- Just a little longer on some things I felt that two days per section was much more comfortable a pace, but it could have been a little longer just because during a friday/saturday for example if you were out you missed a huge chunk. Plus the 7:30pm cut off time felt odd to me maybe I'm just used to the midnight cutoffs.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: I just want to as always give a HUGE thinks to the GM's/Admin/everyone who participated for making this meta so great!
Also wanna comment that the battle system for this meta actually felt really smooth.

Things I liked about the meta: The heartlogs were neat! Considering how many tasks there were to do, and how bad I am at keeping track of meta posts for my chars journals, this is actually quite a nice way to keep track of everything!

The extended time limits were awesome! 48 hours to do a task + the few extensions you gave out beyond that were really helpful for getting things done~

The raffle! It reminded me a lot of the horsemen raffle or the fright night raffle in that you had to participate things to earn the items needed to enter in the raffle and have a better chance of winning, and I like that idea a lot <3

I enjoyed how we were able to really explore our characters through this meta, so the solo aspect was nice in that regard, however I find personally that I enjoyed the parts where there was also a group aspect slightly more (Finding allies in the gold task, doing the violet task as a group, etc) Though both had chances to solo in them, it was also nice to break that up with some interaction.

Battle areana + co-op + weapoonnnnns + mini's prizes for weapons omg <---all of this was great!

Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: Logs and Battles and Raffles that's ticket amounts are determined by how much you participate, yes to all of these <3
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Can't think of anything~ Just thank you so much once again for all of your hard work!

Things I liked about the meta: The extended time limits. I'm super super slow, so I really appreciated having more time to finish things, and a huge thank you for all the extensions you handed out even beyond that! Q WQ I also loved that much of this event could be soloed; that's helpful for a lot of reasons, and I'd just be echoing a lot of sentiments above <3 The heart logs were also a great idea and a good way to keep our progress in one place!
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: EXTENDED TIME LIMITS. Additionally, I've seen a few comments about how very Hunter-centric much of the backstory/NPCs were, so I'd love to see more things for the Horsemen and students -- especially the students, since I feel like they haven't gotten a plot-heavy event of their own in awhile? I'd also like more opportunities for one-on-one interactions, or at least RPs with smaller groups. Seven Kings was wonderful for meeting and interacting with new characters, but in this event, I felt like there was very little time to do that in-between everyone rushing to do tasks, battle, quests, etc.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: I just wish I could have been around more often to do more! There was seriously a lot to do for this event -- from what I saw, the sidetasks were a great way to keep people active in-between the big story updates, although I couldn't find the time to do many of them -- and it was really fun to see how much work you all put into it! Thank you so much for everything <3

Things I liked about the meta: I really liked the heart logs, the battling, Able to do it solo, all of the memories
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: I'd like to see the heart logs come back, it was nice to have a place to stick all of the meta roleplays.
The co-op battling- I really liked how I didn't have to worry about matching up timezones, and could just jump into a battle that was going on.
Solo tasks- I liked not having to worry about holding up a group if I couldn't get onto post.
The pre-registration bonus was nice too.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Personally, I could have used a bit of downtime in between worlds, especially with how many memories we were writing. Still, it was very enjoyable, one of the best meta's I've participated in so far.

Things I liked about the meta: First, I want to say that I love the way you try to incorporate new things into every meta. It's one huge game of trial-and-error, and I really think it came out nicely! The heart logs were a great idea - and I had to laugh because I haven't updated a journal so meticulously since Y1 Amrita. I loved that there was more time to do what we had to, though it sometimes seemed there weren't enough hours in the day to get ALL THE THIIIIINGGGSSSSS there were, but it seemed like there wasn't. Having everything so you could solo OR group it was great, and it worked out fantastically in the long run. Everything you tried this meta seemed to work, and all the recurring things from previous metas fit in great as well!
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: I'd really like to see the achievements make another appearance! I might kill myself for saying this later, but I really enjoyed it, and it was fun to go through all the little tidbits when I had the time. Other than that I really can't think of any one thing on specific, other than...keep up the great work!
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Thank you so much for everything, I can only imagine how exhausting and time consuming running something like this is, and yet everyone seemed to hold themselves together through it all. Thank you so much, you're all fantastic!

Things I liked about the meta: I loved how much TIME you gave us. I have work and other things and I like how much leeway you gave us between tasks. Also soloing was awesome. I am usually the odd man out in groups so beign able to solo on my time was a huge plus. I know it doesn't help me at all to become sociable but it also lets me get stuff done and not make me feel awkward. Oh and thank you for making me update my journal. Because it has gotten me into the habit. I also loved the little side tasks. They were so great, storyline and all. And you tapped into my inner love of collecting by making those little blessings. That was a great addition just because it gave me something to strive for. I also love how you made a raffle out of it.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: Keep on doing what you are doing! I'd love to see something like the blessing system again.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Thank you so much for doing this I know you all have lives outside of TiH but you dedicate so much. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Things I liked about the meta: The entire setting. The Heartlog. the battles. The achievements. It was pretty awesome and it made me think of a RPG. I loved it because of that! And the time limits were awesome!
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: Definitely the sidequests and CoOp battle!!
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: I don't know, I just wish I could have gotten out of my shell to rp with others ;m;

Things I liked about the meta: I totally loved the Heart logs as that made things so much easier for later on. I also like the paceing of the whole meta as it was great and to were you could pick and choose what side quests/fighting besides the main part of meta. I also really liked that you could solo in the meta as it was great when I had to work.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: The heart logs as that was a great idea. The side quests and the battle arena.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: Thank you so much for a wonderful time as it was so much fun!! All of you are so very wonderful and thank you again for all that you do! <33333

My minis SN: nothingyet
Things I liked about the meta: I loved the pacing of this meta a lot! The only time I felt myself getting tripped up was at the very end, because I wanted to do both tasks so badly (and that's a good thing in itself, imo), but the extra time that we were given to finish up helped a ton, and I appreciated that hugely. I liked that we had a lot of choice all over the place, and that we were able to decide our characters' destinies in a lot of different ways. The weapon variety and availability was another way that helped awesomely to customize the character that I really enjoyed working towards! I liked that there was a lot of leeway given for characters jumping in at any point, as well. There wasn't a huge amount of penalty for joining later, but there was still a benefit for being in the meta the whole time, which was a really nice balance!
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas: Please keep that announcement thread, omg it was so fantastic. <3 I would also REALLY like to see some newer things continued, namely the Heart Log (in some form), the Battle Arena, and the Achievements. Whenever possible, the time extensions for prompts and more rp-related things are fantastic too!
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback: I always love reading the storyline of this shop and the stories that everyone contributes as a group. This meta was so fantastic and I appreciate everything that was put into it! Thank you so much for running this for us and letting us play out such an awesome story! <3

My only suggestion would be to offer a few more options of interaction during portions of play that are more solo-oriented. Something similar to the way that prps were allowed in the battle section during the last little bit of the meta would work fine, I think! Just something to add greater balance between solo/interactive play. c:

Things I liked about the meta:
- Heart Logs: I loved having a place to record everything, it made it a lot easier to keep track of what events/battles happened when and helped lower the risk of losing something later on.
- Extended time limits: While because of rl issues it felt a little rushed at times (that is totally a me issue there), I really appreciated the extended time limits to get things wrapped up and taken care of.
- Co-op battles: LOVE LOVE LOVE these. Getting loot for different weapons was a lot of fun, and the fact that you get a artifact based on the weapon you ended with was a really nice touch. Plus, with not needing to look for a group before getting something going, it made it a lot easier to get something started or join in.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:
Heart logs would be a wonderful thing to see again, as well as the co-op battles. Though with how much there was to do in this meta, it was a bit difficult to keep up with more than one character, so maybe a little note in the sign ups next time if it's going to be a heavier meta?
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback:
At times, it seemed very busy and a bit overwhelming with everything there was to do. Between the daily tasks, side task and battles, it was a lot to take in and try to figure out where to start and how much time you had to do things. Also, maybe vary the different tasks a bit as well? It was a tad frustrating at times to have a bunch of solos to do for those of us who wanted something a little less time consuming for whatever reason, and the more group oriented tasks ended up seeming overly detailed and confusing sometimes.

One thing I really enjoyed was the final boss. It was refreshing to not feel like you had to back read and try to figure out what happened while you offline, trying to find multiple updates and figure out where it was going from whatever point you jumped in at.

Thank you guys very much for the event and all the work you put into it! <3

Things I liked about the meta:
* The 48 hours+ for tasks. Aaaah this was the best thing. The best ever. Aside from crazy and unexpected RL stuff happening, I felt like I could actually keep up to some degree and balance it with fulltime work.
* Solo options for the daily tasks. I felt like I could actually play a part, because I didn't have to keep up with huge threads of people to figure out what the status of the event was, and on days I had precious little time I could hop in, do the task, and hop back out.
* Loot. I sorta love the idea of being able to earn stuff and build weapons and stuff. @o@ Collecting all the shinies just really appeals to me.
Things I would like to see implemented in future metas:
* Above things, plus the personal log. Although I'd really like a bit more freedom with the log, the first post was a beautiful way to organize and view our earnings, but sometimes I got really lost over what I had to post and where and how.
* More socialization time. As much as I like the option to solo the main stuff, I felt there was no time to just... exist with other players. Instead of interacting with different characters, everything was so very goal-based, like attacking the monsters or posting the things.
Additional comments, suggestions or feedback:
* There were SO MANY THINGS going on. If I wasn't working full time it would be a great thing, but as it was I feel like I really missed out on a huge number of things in the event while I was working hard to get the main tasks finished and written out.
