Feedback for the event! It was pretty fast-paced, which kinda sucked for me since I wasn't able to be online as much as I would've liked. ^^;
What with work eating up most of my day and my online time being... drastically reduced during the event... ;A;

BUT STILL. IT WAS AN EPIC EVENT FULL OF SUFFERING. emotion_kirakira

I enjoyed it. I wish I had figured out the Blast chats, because a ton of funness happened there, but I had a lot of fun playing with Acerium and with everybody.

The plot was really awesomely twisty, though I did get a bit confused with the suddenness of it.

I loved the team dynamics. I loved being on a team like that.
My problem was that the actual teams only really seemed to come into play once, with the trials. On the battlefield everything just went insane, which was lovely.

I liked how Zoo was flexible. Changing rules when things don't work is good, I know too many people who use rules as holy grails.

I wasnt a fan of the riddles, but I have never been a fan of riddles. I'm strange like that.

I can't wait for next meta!

Feedback for the event! I had an amazing time participating, first off just wow at how much all the admins put into this to make it wonderful. I loved the small groups mostly because it was was less intimidating and you had more of a chance to ask questions and not get nervous about posting them. I'll admit the sheer pace of the event was frightening or should I say how fast you people post xD but I loved always having something to read when I came back so! Thank you guys !!!

Feedback for the event! I was concerned that the events would happen every 12 hours, but having it between 24-48 hours was great because everyone at night who talked about being at work could get on an interact. I also liked the mix between picking people you knew, but also have a group assigned of new people. I know during the Stranger Rp month even that a lot of new people felt like they were bothering people if they asked for rp, so having groups assigned was nice. Also having a hub base and just getting along first before an event started was great and fun, meaning you had time to make friends before things kicked off. It made everything more dramatic. There was a moment where we were confused about rules, but that was very quickly sorted that night. I did like having rpers dictate decisions because it was like playing power in their hands to create the story but it was still being directed by GMs, so it was controlled but there was a lot of rp freedom. It was great and I think I liked this event a lot more because of all the interactions and new people I got to rp with (You could be buds with Amityville and be conflicted after!) It seemed more about being together and a team than just about fighting. It was a great event and I loved it!

Feedback for the event! This was definitely one of my faaaaavorite events we've had so far! I LOVE LOVELOVALKSDLFASKD the blast chats. It made things so much easier on the players. There was a bit of ooc drama, so maybe next time we could have a GM/NPC chara sorted into every group or something, so as to keep situations diffused?

One thing I really liked was that we were all thrown into random groups. I know that normally there is the worry that we'll be in different time zones and what not, but because there were so many people in groups, there was always someone online you could talk with. PLUS I got rp with people I never would've rp'd with otherwise, just cause I'm really shy about asking for rp U V U The sorting felt REALLY poignant- I felt like I had enough players I knew well to be comfortable, but enough new people that I was like LOOK AT ALL THESE NEW PEOPLE TO RP WITH O UO <333 tldr; groups were awesome.

I felt like the way the battle mechanics were structured, pawns didn't matter much, if at all after awakeneds were introduced. If they even managed to kill an awakened, they were blessing'd instantly. The awakeneds would respawn with full stats, while unawakeneds respawned with lowered stats. Likewise, when we made it to the top of the tower; nobody had a way to fight back against the king, so it felt very demotivating- why send your chara into a battle they were just going to be killed in? I think a good solution to this would have been a target cap- only X amount of players attacking one person at a time. Plus a way to fight the king would've felt so much more like a boss fight and less like a suicide mission.

Also, I LOVED the AU, but I hope we will continue to see events that happen directly to our charas. I find myself with more plots/development with that, rather than a strange dream that my chara has one night that could be easily brushed off.

Those are such minor complaints though. Overall, I had a lot of fun <3333

ALSO PLEASE. CAN SOMEONE GO SAVE MARK? IS MARK OKAY? Q_Q

Feedback for the event! I knew I'm not someone the shop want who are good at rp but I couldn't resist the minipet and trophy(who can do as TiH user). My goal was just simple. Get at least one thing and at least not do shame things. The whole things are over now, I'm impressed by so many things. Especially the awesome story. Seven king meta is adorable. I really wish I could write well. Envy whole rps. In the future I can't resist awesome meta or event but I'll try notto break the rules. So Don't worry so much about mess up if you worried redface I always tryyy not to ruin! TiH is just amazing and so fascinating. Thank you for whole things<3

Feedback for the event! If you have any post here! I think it was a fabulous event! I had a bit of a rough start getting involved with people and breaking the ice, but that's on me. If I was going to say anything I'd say I'd love a longer event. So much action in one week!

Feedback for the event!
Generally, I absolutely loved the event! It was very well executed and you could tell how much everyone was dedicated, from the admins to even most of the participants. The Blast Chats were a boon, allowing people who had regular access to them to be able to keep up even when they couldn't post, and created a feeling of togetherness between newbies and oldbies and people who had never RPed together that likely would not have been there otherwise.

I loved how, at the end, there was both newbie and veteran nominations! It was cool to, as a newbie, give props to the people who had helped us out, too, for the potential for them to earn prizes. I think it creates a nice balance!

I noticed that, though, that the beginning of this metaplot especially was very overwhelming, especially to newbies. Hell, I was active for the whole event and I still don't know everything about all the kingdoms! It was mostly a sheer amount of information issue, and while it showed a lot of effort, perhaps there's a better way to ease newbies into it then having them spend one day as an anonymous before getting thrown everywhere? Perhaps let the newbies into things a few days early just to start to read and absorb. o3o Not necessarily to RP, but to start understanding what's going on, get more up to speed, and then jump in.

I will say, I don't think I ever got as tired of dice rolling as I had during that tower, especially after doing it for two different characters! In the future, perhaps less rolling? Or, at least, provide more opportunities for interaction during the rolling. When Serafina was able to interact with her team, it wasn't as tedious? But when Nkosazana was stuck tumbling up the stairs by herself, it was very tedious.

Speaking of, I absolutely loved the teams. Shrinking the groups down to each about ~20 made it a lot easier for people to keep up and keep on pace. It gave a smaller group of people to focus on, and it was usually matched up well enough that the timezones had at least two people on at the same time! Plus, it created a very family feel, especially with the blast chats, and I felt like I was really in TiH for the first time with this event. Before, I had just been skirting the outside and very vaguely attempting to reach towards RP, but now...

And thank you for letting them remember ;A; And for creating an optimistic ending!! It was nice to end on an uplifting note. :3

Feedback for the event! I really have nothing to say XD I loved the entire event, I had a blast playing my characters in an AU, and I only wish that I hadn't started a new job the day the event began so I could have spent more time RPing with everrrryyyoonnneee <3333 Seriously though, everything about this mini meta was amazing and I think zoo + the people playing the kings really outdid themselves! The Kingdoms were super fun to play in, the plot twists were delicious, and the blast chats were an incredibly awesome way to be able to interact with/get to know everyone and OMG ALL THE PRIZES WUT!!! I really don't know what else to say that hasn't already been said! Thank you again <3333

Feedback for the event! The beginning was so aboslutely freaking amazing, I was looking forward for the span of events, but due to RL problems had to miss quite a lot. I really loved the idea of "alternate realm", where TiH characters could exist and behave staying themselves, but in different circumstances: sort of reminds me of Bleach fillers smile I'd really love to explore alternate realm situations again!

Feedback for the event! I loved the event <3 I LOVED the team-aspect, it was so much fun, and I really connected with my team <333 I really hardcore loved my group, I got to rp with people I've never rped with, and I have SO MUCH to work from now with Nuk. I haven't had a muse for him in years, and now he has a direction.

I also really loved how in the beginning, the kings were more guides than the focus of the event. I was a little sad, actually, when the people important to the king woke up, because the focus really shifted to them exclusively, and the group was kind of split from then on. I don't think that was necessarily anyone's fault, it could have have been played many different ways one of which being the awakened players starting to pick off their own team members, (Rep picked off Nuk, for example,) but most often it seemed it became 'the pawns were sent off to die while the awoken characters focused on the kings.' :< As I said, it wasn't bad, it just left the pawns as sort of obsolete.

Blue team ended up countering with bartender feels xD <333 It was glorious.

EDIT

I just wanted to mention that I hope, I PRAY, that this doesn't come across wrong? I have a terrible tendency to word things very badly, in ways that were never meant to be expressed ;;; This has been one of my favorite metas so far, and I truly ADORED playing Nuk in the Blue Kingdom -- he was so perfectly placed, and it really got my muse running. ;;; Just... wanted to make sure it didn't come across wrong u.u;;;

Okay keyboard smashing can get out of the way now. So good things:
1.) Happy ending to meta. You have no idea how much I needed this okay. Not to say the other metas weren't amazeballs (trust me, when I look back to Halloween's I still reel a bit from feels and it's been a few months), but it was nice for this much condensed emotion to end on a good note. Them getting to remember it was even better and I teared up okay gj ;;; Thank you thank you and thank you <3 <3
2.) Blast chats. I never gave thought to them until I was forced to upgrade my AIM and sldfjsdlkfj how did I live without these commands. How. The way I could talk to people about IC and OOC and give semi broad announcements without mass quoting was awesome and liberating and yes. Having about 18ish people around could be demanding at times, but somehow the stress of it was pretty thrilling. IDK I LIKE BEING A MOTHER TO MY LITTLE GOSLINGS NO MATTER WHAT RL SAID OKAY.
3.) Being a GM. I was already prepping to sorta be one with Mort's plot quest, but this was the best way for me to understand how to handle multiple people (and some rather active imaginations) while keeping to the particular path we had to follow. And while sleep suddenly became secondary and homework loomed over my shoulder, I don't regret a moment of it whatsoever. <3 Opportunities like this are super cool and I loved my players rolling with it and I hope they had as much fun as I did! Yeah these aren't real meta feedbacks but look I have a lot of feels going on okay and I need you to know this was super special awesome to me.
4.) AUs. God I love AUs. Forever AUs.
5.) Generosity between players. Plotting between people you've never actually gotten to, welcoming newblets into our bosoms, giving out minis like it's still Christmas, and you giving out prizes upon prizes upon prizes like giving out candy from your van just gives me so many warm fuzzies I can't even. <3333

Couple've things I noticed that are small blips:
1.) Pawns vs. Awakened characters. I got the same feel a few others had that revealing the vision to everyone allowed for characters who wouldn't naturally know something is up "sense" something, which flavored roleplay weirdly whenever awakened people weren't acting off. Making it secret is one idea, but it wasn't a terribly huge deal in the end, so this is more a comment as a third party watching. The other thing was I did feel a bit bad about sending pawns off and focusing more on the awakened when it came to advancing suffering, though again ICly it was logically done. I just didn't like the idea of demeriting other players just because they weren't chosen is all, if that makes sense. XD; Even if pawns are technically shock troops.
2.) Blessing Ability. Totally understand why KOing needed to start happening and all for this event, but from what I gleaned (I failed to keep up in the battle whoops) it became a sort of chaotic deal where pawns could ascend and get some limelight powers and then die a turn later. I think a way to prevent it would be to implement the "poison effect" that got brought in a little earlier in the game, so that players understand each post costs them and do eventually die anyway but at least get to have their fight on. Idk making an invisible timer might make the battle even more intense than suddenly dying? ouo Or at least having that layered first before adding the stinger that is an instant KO with a recoil chance.
3.) Tower Climbing. Funnily enough, I didn't have the issues others did because apparently dice understand a sense of urgency when a king is getting up there to murder people; conversely, my other character died because they derped too much before the window of time closed. 8D; I personally didn't mind doing little bits to myself, but 300 was probably a bit hard to most. The sense losing deal/Voice prompts I <3333, though I was a little confused as to why hearing went first followed by speaking, since speaking...wouldn't matter much if you can't hear. XD Through hear/see/speak no evil yes ilu

Really though overall A++++++ 11/10 would meta again stamped and approved green across the board hurr hurr hurr
And thank you so much for allowing us kings to handle stuff for you because I can't stress how much fun this has been! OUO <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Feedback for the event! I really enjoyed it! The Kings for both the Kingdoms I were in were fantastic and I loved the communication and the teams. It was really fun!

I will admit though I would have liked a few more... things to do, activities and such? There was the tower/labyrinth/etc pick one, and then the battle and then the tower. I know it was a short event but I feel like the structured competition of kingdom vs. kingdom was a bit lacking. (Obviously we had a huge ball of unstructured with the battle, haha.) It wasn't what I was expecting and that was both good and bad? idk! no huge problems though overall I enjoyed it C:

Feedback for the event! OMG A HAPPY ENDING ;u; I LOVE HAPPY ENDINGS! I can't honestly think of anything that hasn't already been said? I think the timing actually wasn't that bad for all the different time zones or for people with jobs, since everything was paced pretty well and everyone was given 24-48 hours to react to things. I love being given fair warning for how long I have to react to something.
I think literally the only part I enjoyed less than the rest would be the final tower. Don't get me wrong, I loved it. Candace/Table OTP forever okay. But being blind, deaf and mute made it rather hard to RP unless you were making your guess or being attacked. And then once your guess was finished you didn't really have anything to do except stumble around awkwardly unless a king interacted with you. Probably something we could've solved ourselves but that was the only part that bothered me, I think.
