paradisamods: (DON'T WORRY THERE'S A BORDER)
PARADISA MODS ([personal profile] paradisamods) wrote in [community profile] paradisaooc2009-12-18 01:31 am

Oh my god it's like 1:30.

There is a sea of posts reacting to the ghosts being pushy, and mine isn’t getting too many replies!

This is a thing we see a lot, and will likely see again in the future, but we'd like to make a suggestion to combat this.

If at all possible, BEFORE you post, take a good long look at the first (and hopefully) second page of entries, and scroll around first. Has someone already said exactly what you about to say?

If the answer is a big “yes”, how about joining that post, instead? A “hey, mine are giving me trouble too!” or threadjacking someone else with a “thirding!” or “fourthing!” and sharing your own anecdotes?

We don’t want to limit what you post, but please take this into consideration. Would we rather have a big mingling post of characters thread-hopping and DISCUSSING, or post after post of the same general recorded thing?

Psst: thread-hopping is a great way to start or develop CR. Let’s see a lot more of that, please!



And:

There is one more day of kissing and I haven't finished everything!

It's okay. A LOT of people are on hiatus right now, it's the holidays, and we will never have a year where everyone manages to complete every planned kiss. Therefore, if you'd like, consider this post a place to post links to your "kissing" open-posts, wrap up loose ends, agree to imply, or decide what will actually get played out.

Ah, sweet sweet organizational posts.

Duster has an open kissing post here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10288733.html). He's temporarily escaped the ghosts in that post, so if your character could use some peace (whether or not that peace gets shattered with bells), come join him!

Rin has an open kissing post in the library here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10258682.html) and, if you're inclined to log stuff out, an open log up here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisalogs/507076.html). I am always up for backtagging on posts, so if you want to feel free to tag in at her older library post. c:

Howl does... not have a post because I fail. D| That will go up pronto.

The list of people who'd agreed to kiss them is here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisaooc/2425112.html?thread=63527192#t63527192), but I'm up for unplanned shenanigans too. c:

York is over here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10295373.html#comments).

I haven't done one with Raine yet. Oops. Will have to do that tomorrow.

Kissing: Misa, Faith, Hassan

I just got back into town so I am definitely still catching up on tags from my kissing posts, so if anyone would like to jump onto mine, I will be watching them as I catch up! :3 If I don't have CR with you yet, NOTHING SAYS HELLO LIKE A SMOOCH RIGHT? I am up for anything if anyone wants to plot/imply/log/bake cookies. RIGHT AFTER I SLEEP OFF JETLAG. &hearts

Misa is in the kitchen, calling out perverts (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10257921.html#comments)
Hassan is in the lobby, kind of asking for it (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10247649.html)
Faith, also in the kitchen, risks kissing to feed her dog (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10235631.html)

For those people that I have started threads with in relation to kissing and other things, if I've accidentally dropped it, please tell me. I lost track of a lot of things recently.

I'm up for backtagging forever, so just...hit me up. Or pick up old threads. Whatevs.
Ring a bell in your tag if you want it to be a kissing post and I'll roll with it.

Cube is serving cookies, near some bells (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10233961.html)
Faye is prowlin' around. Kiss her, you fool! (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10240786.html)
Billy is escaping ghosts. Get him! (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10286655.html)

Sakaki doesn't have a kissing post yet. She didn't have many people signed up for her, but I'm still hoping to get her a thread set up in a while if I have time.

Sweet, since I know there are some on my list that I haven't gotten yet. PLEASE COMMENT GUYS IF WE ARRANGED TO KISS BUT HAVEN'T. I also apologize for slowness on tags, I will try to get to them!

But my posts are:
Allen Walker in the ballroom during the set up of the auction. (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10252138.html)
Reno in the lobby after everyone received their special item. (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10267744.html)
Zoe Alleyne Washburne in the kitchen after the ghosts started getting pushy. (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10288945.html)

Feel free to tag into any of those entries and if I owe you a tag, comment here and let me know? The notif fail last week totally threw me off and I'm sure I forgot about some tags.

TBK LIST:

Allen Walker
Thread in Progress: Rayner-Sama, Donna, Carly
No Thread yet: Sam Puckett, Miranda, Azmaria

Also if anyone wants to go for unplanned kisses, go ahead and do that.

[personal profile] bound_darkness 2009-12-18 06:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I think I may do this as well, though, I believe there aren't many unfinished threads. Gotta apologize for the slowness during this past week too, but I'm pretty much free from work to thread.

Cloud's open kissing post is here, the day everybody got the castle's present. The thread with Cassie can be finished there or keep going, I'm up for either. Howl, sup? And if anyone wants to backlog, I'm up for it too.

Shadow's here. But his kissing quota has been pretty much filled in for life|D; Just linking it for the people who's got pending threads with him, like Nill (who I know is on hiatus but I'll wait), and Rouge. Unless you want a very awkward kissing thread, you may still comment there.

If I happened to miss an entry where I was supposed to comment or forgot to reply back (even if it's not a kissing post), please, please, please let me know/link me to it? I'll do my best to catch up!

[identity profile] onlyanapple.livejournal.com 2009-12-18 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I have many unfinished threads, if I have, please yell at me and I'll get it sorted.

Crowley has a post here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10229880.html)
Hodgins is here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10263222.html)
Lorne is here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10249329.html)
Shortpack is here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10267628.html)
and

All open posts, all welcoming unplanned kisses as well as planned ones.

S'UP GUYS. Uh, if we have a thread going somewhere and I seem to have lost track of it, feel free to punt me toward it here! Also, if you want to snog this dude and we haven't played it yet, let me know. :3

P.S. I am always up for backtagging.

Gino Weinberg's (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10233540.html)
Lucian's (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10256284.html)
Ky Kiske's (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10279193.html)

I know all three of them still have threads that need completed, but they're all in other threads. I don't think there are any tags waiting on me in those threads, but if there are, kick me in the rear. They're all close to completing their planned kisses and I would feel proud of myself if they did do it.

Yukiko has posts here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10294937.html) and here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10302656.html), for your convenience! There's also the big party post which is more than open for backtags. ♥
To Be Kissed: Beat, Yukari, Gino, Shiki, Gold, Amaterasu, Misa

Apollo has a post right here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10275824.html)!
To Be Kissed: Sakura, Rangiku, Chizuru, Soi Fong

Got a few threads going on already, so anyone who wants to backtag stuff or just imply just has to let me know! :D

Kratos has a post here and Michiru has an older post here. I was busy this week so I didn't get Luke's up-- implying is fine.

[identity profile] mmm-paradise.livejournal.com 2009-12-19 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Ken's is right here (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisa/10293786.html) and I did not get Joshua's post up in time because I have been flaky. HOWEVER, since Joshua is getting kissed by so many people and Ken only has a few people left on his list, implying everyone else is fine. I can put up a post up in Joshua's journal just in case someone really feels the need to mack on this kid... ew.

Also, Joshua will again be making a huge ranking list of kisses this year, and I will be using everyone I put down on this list (http://community.livejournal.com/paradisaooc/2425112.html?thread=63681560#t63681560) to make it. This does mean that I'm implying that all of these kisses happened. If there is an asterisk next to or nothing at all on your character's name (meaning that he's in a thread with that character now and does not have a thread with that character, respectively), you are perfectly free to ask me to take your character off the list; I figure that the strikes are sort of a moot point. =)
