SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER GLITCHES

Since our Giant Glitch Poll ended in a few ties, we figured it would be best to discuss some of our options for going forward with planning for the next few months to make sure as many people can participate in what they want to as lives begin to get busy with school.

Right now, we solidly have Happily Ever After for November and the metaplot-heavy Invasion for December. For September and October, there's a tie between Opposite Day (where characters become their opposites, however you wish to interpret that) and Vampire Weekend* (where characters end up with supernatural powers).

Vampire Weekend


Type: Opt-out-able, wide-spread character glitch.
Duration: SHORT, a weekend to a full week.
What: Walk a mile in each other's fangs! Vampires will be humans will be demons will be werewolves will be superpeople will be telepaths will be vampires will be humans. Or something along those lines. It doesn't have to be a power held by a character in Taxon, or a supernatural creature of the twilight. Have a ball, raise some hell, and sparkle like you mean it.


What we'd like is to hear from everyone on which month you'd like for each glitch, and anything that'll be happening for you in the coming months that might effect your ability to participate in the glitches you want to be a part of.


* Replacing the Fallen London glitch, in light of recent events.

Re: Vampire Weekend

FORGIVE ME IF I CANNOT READ THE BIG GLITCH POST, but I couldn't find anything on the Vampire Weekend there, so have these questions: What about those who have supernatural powers? Would they be able to not have supernatural powers during the duration of the event? How long would it go for as well?

I only ask because my two have powers - Piper's got powers and Caroline's got powers - and I wouldn't mind swapping them up/taking them away from them in order to participate in the event. Thank you! ♥

EXCELLENT QUESTION and I'll be adding a more elaborate description in the post in a moment. Basically it's like power roulette, the original idea was giving humans vampire powers and make the vampires human (hence the name) but it's evolved over time.

And I think the duration would be fairly short, a week to two weeks, but we can hammer that out in discussion.
