Get In Losers We're Going Speed Dating

[selfhelp]

Hello everyone, today is the magical day of Speed Dating 101!

Remember the sign-ups from last week? Well, they've been organized. Somehow. The IC log will be going live sometime today (probably after I've slept, eh-heh) but I wanted to post the roster so you guys can do any plotting beforehand if you like. It was easier to Googledoc it, so the spreadsheet is HERE. There are tabs are for both Friendship and Romantic pairs, so check each of them if you signed up for both. (If you have difficulty with Googledocs, comment below with your character's name and I'll give you the roster directly.)

A few notes:

• As you'll notice, there's a lot of names on those lists. Since there were a lot of nonspecific preferences in the sign-ups (as well as mixed-up answers) some poor suckers have about 30 partners! That would be a lot of threads, even if they could be short. So if you feel overwhelmed by the number, feel free to talk amongst yourselves, handwave, or just assume there wasn't enough time to get through everyone. Thread however much you're comfortable with |Db
  
• All of the partnering was done based on how the characters were signed up, so any errors based on preference is probably due to that. Billy did his best and made some guesswork if the answers were confusing, so some pairings might be a bit wonky.
  
• Since Billy has no idea of who has existing CR/are castmates/whatever for the most part, characters might be paired with people they know! If that's the case they can either skip out on that turn or chat them up anyway. He left out a few that he did know (for friendship, anyway).
  
• If Billy saw any sign-ups he knew were wrong, he corrected them. (Case in point being Richard getting signed-up for heteromance.)
  
• As stated previously, Billy's not going to force anyone to come. An invitation with the date and time of the event would've been sent out to every character signed up, but that's the extent of his convincing. Your character (or your character's friends) are responsible for getting them there.
  
• If there are any glaring errors that's due to organizational mix-up and you can't live without it being fixed, do tell me! I can fix it!!

I think that's pretty much it :B Questions/issues/whatever go in my thread below, and feel free to plot in this entry or elsewhere, as you please.


EDIT: Due to the lists being done and spread around and plotting in-progress I WILL BE ACCEPTING NO MORE SIGN-UPS FOR THIS EVENT. Sorry dudes.

Ororo Munroe / Storm

[calmbeforethe]

So Ororo got these people for ~*romance*~

Adalinda, Cliff, Eleytheria, Isaac, Jack, Jade, Logan, Maito Gai, Nathan, Tsuzuki, Vash, Vegeta

and these people for ~*friendship*~

Claire, Grune, Loki

ANYWAY LET'S PLOT YOU GUYS I'm cool with handwaving things and talking about what they could have done in ten minutes here, or we could do an actual thread! Whatever works for you guys!

[aerialassault]

Well, I've gotta say that Cliff needs more adults in his life, male or female. He has too many teenagers, because he's somehow their mentor?

He's pretty chill, and I really do think that he and Ororo would get along. Just, a warning. He might give her a nickname because her name is a mouthful.

[calmbeforethe]

Get in line, Tony (and Gambit before him!) already gave her an annoying nickname Dx But if Cliff manages to endear himself to her, she'll let it slide!

[aerialassault]

Aw. How can she say 'no' to this smile? He's probably one of the most chill 30+ guys that are available in game!

And no, it won't be obnoxious. He'd probably just drop a syllable or something.

Re: Ororo Munroe / Storm

[idealism]

I'd be interesting in plotting. :3

[calmbeforethe]

Plot away!!! Ororo is friendly enough, she's not too hard to get along with. :)

[tokennonbender]

I know they didn't get paired up or anything but I've been looking for an excuse for Ororo and Asami to meet maybe they could meet at this?

[calmbeforethe]

Well, Ororo will be doing more than just speed dating, considering she helped Billy and Teddy with setting the whole thing up! Maybe they can mingle!

If that doesn't work, I can always backtag Asami's Battle Dome post! ;)

[tokennonbender]

Well if the battle dome post would be easier we could do that!

[relictusdeus]

'Romance' is much too classy a word for what Isaac has joined this event for. (Although, deep down, it's a different story. But I didn't say that. Shh.)

[calmbeforethe]

hoooo boy this is going to be some fun CR

don't piss her off Isaac, it may very well be lethal...! or at least very painful ok ;u;

Re: Ororo Munroe / Storm

[complicatedliar]

We totally need too actually thread this. IT WILL BE SO AWKWARD.

[calmbeforethe]

I was hoping you would say that, ahaha. Please don't piss her off intentionally, Loki!! We don't want to fry the rest of the speed daters if she calls lightning down on him!

[yourfononsarewhack]

Take a look, it's an osyter with two tickets to that thing you like. Look again! They're not fonons.

[calmbeforethe]

Is Jade the man her man could be?!

Re: Ororo Munroe / Storm

[inventings]

I'll love to do a thread! Oh my gosh it'll be so much fun to do.

I think Addie and Ororo could get along when they first meet? I'm not sure but am really excited to plot with you.

[calmbeforethe]

Hello, yes! I would love a thread too! ♥ I've been hoping for a chance to thread with you, since I dropped Vanellope D: But anyway, Addie's the only woman on Ororo's romance list (it's very sad) so I'm very excited for this, too!

edit: I made a shiny thread over here! :)

[lostinmyway]

Doing a thread would be pretty great! I'm not really sure what they would talk about, though, since Grune isn't exactly the best at conversation. :|a

[calmbeforethe]

Gardens and flowers and growing things! ♥

And I would love to do a thread, or at least attempt to! the nice thing about this thing is that the threads can be short. After all it's only supposed to be five minutes!

[lostinmyway]

Now that works very well! Grune could actually talk about that for five minutes.

Yeah, I suppose they don't need to cover a lot of ground that way, haha. I'll drop by in a few minutes and see about getting something started.
