[OOC] MIRROR TAKEDOWN EVENT
As you probably know already, there is gonna be a big ol’ fight this weekend between Mirror and a whole bunch of people! Since this is a relatively large event with a loooot of people wanting to do things, I want to get everyone at least somewhat organized so I can plan properly.
I am planning be available to run this event from 6:30 PM EST on Friday, August 29th up until the evening of Saturday, August 30th. That’ll end up being about thirty-six hours of being on-call for threads, minus time for sleeping, breaks, etc. (I will be running errands at some point during the day on Saturday, which will take a few hours.) I’ll try my best to have all threads wrapped up within that timeframe, but knowing me and timezones, there will probably be a few stragglers.
I’m also planning to run this event in three stages, which roughly correspond to Roy’s IC gameplan. The general outline is as follows:
Phase 1: A small group of characters sneak into Mirror’s realm directly to steal back everything she’s stolen from people.
Event Type: Exploradora with some fighting. Group threads at beginning and end, with opportunity for splitting the party in the middle.
IC Difficulty: VERY DIFFICULT! Use of stealth vs. Nintendo-hard boss room is required.
Surprises??: :3ccccc
Slots Available: 5-7 characters max.
Timing: Timezones are flexible, but should be run as early in the weekend as possible.
Phase 2: A large number of characters (either solo threads or groups of 2/3) place arrays on every reflective surface on Court they can find. Also need to lure Mirror out and herd her towards Phase 3 – not 100% of what the planned timing is here ICly, but will be RUN simultaneously with Phase 1.
Event Type: Small conflicts/semi-personalized mongling. All threads will be solo or very small groups (2-3 characters each). This is also your best bet if you just want to throw in an innocent bystander for a quick mongling!
IC Difficulty: Varies– depends on if you get tossed in her realm or not. I will try to honor most specific requests for these threads.
Surprises??: Maaaaybe a couple.
Character Limit: None, but my replies will slow the more groups there are.
Timing: Timezones are flexible, but ideally should finish before the start of Phase 3.
Phase 3: A small group of characters ambush Mirror in a prepared area and proceed to have a FINAL FIGHT that will turn against her pretty quickly.
IC Difficulty: Some peril but mostly a triumphant finish. Heroic sacrifices also possible.
Surprises??: Just the one. :3c
Character Limit: Roy/Aeris/Neah + 2-4 max characters directly involved, no limit on spectators & support.
Timing: NEEDS to take place during Roy/Aeris/Neah availability and after Phases 1 & 2. This means that Saturday evening (EST) is the only option. Please don’t sign up for a direct slot if you know you won’t be available.
So what do I need from all of you? Sign-ups! Note that this is not required to participate in the event, especially if you just want to play in Phase 2, but it would sure help me out. Note that in phases with limited slots (1 & 3), people who signed up ahead of time will get dibs over people who did not. Please fill out the little form under whichever Phase(s) you’re interested in playing in.
I am ALSO providing a separate section to sign up for characters you want to have handwaved into this! I know some folks are at PAX/have Labor Day Weekend plans/are otherwise busy but want their characters included. Just fill out my form and then I’ll comment back to you once the event is resolved to give you a result to play with after you return. People who ARE playing characters in this event are welcome to use this list to go “such and such was here” while things are underway.
Thanks in advance for helping me out! I look forward to having a fun weekend with all of you. :3c
