Popular vote is popular vote; we're back! Last year has been tough, and I gotta admit I'm behind schedule myself. Nonetheless, I hope everyone's is doing well.
So, who's ready for some matchmaking goodness? The method's tried and true by now, even though there might be some slight modifications to the usual recipe. Here we go!
—The sign-ups will begin today, and will last until Februrary 13th. After that day, no more signups and the pairings get rolled, courtesy of our master shipper, Dice-tan. A public matchmaking mini-event in our Discord might or might not happen.
—Don’t forget to state any dating preferences, if you have any! But at the same time, try to respect the nature of this event's matchmaking! Common dating preferences include, but are not limited to: boys, girls, digimons, certain age ranges, whether the date is with romantic intentions or not, among others.
—Every character should apply with the intention to date. I can't stress this one quite enough. Comic relief and alternative characters are fine and all, but not for this event. Keep it in topic!
—Every thread will be IC.
—You can submit as many characters as you want for this event, but in case we can't pair every one, a person's first will take precedence over everyone's second, and so on. If you're submitting more than one character, order them from highest priority -> lowest priority.
—By default (and that means, unless otherwise arranged between the posting parties), these threads will have a grace period of 1 week per posting round. In case it wasn't clear, a posting round is everyone participating in the thread posting. Try to keep a healthy posting pace! This kind of threads grinding to a halt feels especially bad, trust me.If not, look at last year.
——I don't want to enforce this one, but unless providing a good reason, leaving these threads unfinished will result in penalties for the responsible parties. Join only if you're sure you'll finish!
—The date can be as long as the participants want, but if you're asking about a minimum, it's 2500 words per person. Of course, the most important thing about these threads is for them to reach their natural conclusion, whether good or bad!
—What about rewards!? They will be either:
——20000 bits.
——Or 45/60/75 posts, depending on level (IT+Rookie/Champ+Ult/Mega+Super Mega). In case you're signing more than one character, this reward can only be picked up once.
—Beginning on the 14th of February, all the couples have exactly one week to begin their threads. If anyone doesn't, they'll be disqualified from the event. If they didn't begin because a person poofed and there's enough people to support it, a second round of pairings will begin.
—The categories a character is able to sign up in are as follows; single date, double dates, couples, and group dates. Basically:
——Singles: Lonely souls who want to have a good time, and maybe even get lucky in the endless search of that special somebody!
——Doubles: Two couples, hanging out together for a dose of good, old fun! While love might be the air, that's no reason to miss on potentially getting a new pair of best friends, right?
——Couples: An already established couple, looking forward to deepening their bond, or maybe to spend the day in a special way!
——Group dates are dates that include groups of 3+ beings that might or might not hold feelings for one another. Nothing wrong with just wanting to have fun in a date like this, right? Beats brooding over the day it with a tub of ice cream!
—There are two ways to engage in dating: In the first, all the participants from the date come into an agreement and thread normally. The other? I draw a random prompt from my carefully elaborate Promptbag 2.0™ and y'all thread around it! Good for characters that would otherwise not interact with each other as a way to hopefully break the ice, or maybe even a way to add spice to your dates! The prompt can only happen if every participant of the thread wants for it, though. Gotta make sure everyone's comfortable.
Penalties from participating in the past edition of this event have been lifted, mostly due to the extraordinary circumstances that last year was. Anyone can participate this year around.
There's the special rewards as well! In case anyone forgot, the conditions are as follows:
