Owl Anniversary Bash

[Velveteen]

Most of those powers still require you to know who you are tracking or eyespying and so on. But being as the event will be happening on mibbit and not on grid...then go for it?

[Ripper]

If I'm a vampire in a room full of strangers wearing owl masks I'm sure as hell going to want and know who is under some of them.

After that, names really aren't all that hard to come by either.

Needless to say Ripper will not be attending.

[Alexandrea]

Imo, doing that would be missing out on half the fun. I think this is a great idea. I would like to take part but I really hate live chat events. This one tho~ It's very tempting! :)

Perhaps, and I'm not saying that this isn't a good point in itself; but there's a dangerous slope when one or many can avoid cannon just merely back taking things off of mooncalfstudios.com

[Alexandrea]

Well they said you could do those things if you wished to and it would be in character for your Ripper certainly to do so. :) As it would be completely in Alex's to go either way depending on her mood, lol. >.<

Hell we could say that for the event everyone is mindblocked as they walk through the door which is completely within canon.

You have Ripper interact on YM all the time which is not mooncalfstudios.com. How is it any different?

But for the record, no one is trying to avoid canon. Just trying to avoid people being asshats and ruin something that is meant to be fun.

If there was some way to create a true masquerade experience using the site then we would do that. But we cant so this is an alternative.

Both ICly and OOCly Blake would be very disappointed in anyone that did tried to 'cheat' the event and he would be very very disappointed but given he couldn't do anything about it....whatevs.

At it's heart this is merely an attempt to have a good night, break down some barriers and work towards destroying the cliques that seem to have taken root both IC and OOC. I fail to see how any of that is a bad thing or how any of that deserves to be cheated or circumvented or avoided.

How would they know which names or identities there to mind block if everybody there has their faces covered as described?

The difference is that those taking part in the yahoo transcripts aren't trying to 'cheat' the system by circumventing any established rules. If such a thing were listed up on an RP thread here such content would certainly be under subject to mod scrutiny for exploitation.

I've nothing further yet to say on this subject.

Peace Out!

[Velveteen]

No one is trying to cheat the system or circumvent any established rules. We put something out there which is a 'roleplay' event and if people choose to take part in it then the invitation is there for them to come along and do so.

I am far from surprised that Ripper wont be attending as the system in place will prevent him from being an asshat, I am surprised at your attitude over it especially considering it is not something you are interested in. But as you have nothing more to say then we can get on with things yeah?

[Sundial]

OMFG (This is where Susan's head implodes)! I swear some people ... points to Ripper/Alch....just love to argue. Too many canon based rules.....Not enough canon based rules! FFS!

Identities could be "assumed" from the parking lot.

Sounds fun, maybe Sun, Cart & Dande will pop in. Especially if Mr Fun-times isn't coming.
