Summer Bonfire SOSSPY! Official Date! « Thread Started on Jul 22, 2010, 4:28pm »
Whelp, we've gotten through most of the summer already, so we'll call this our "end of the summer celebration summer sosspy" instead. xD
The date will be Saturday, August 7th. Officially we begin at 7:00 PM Central Time...or Eastern...but usually people show up when ever they like and continue on into the night. Since this is what usually happens, I start preparations early so that everyone already gathered can start roleplaying at the bonfire whenever they like.
What is the Bonfire? A bonfire is what we call one big thread where everyone can roleplay and meet and greet their fellow pack members. Only Shinkou, Akeru and loners are allowed to attend, sorry Giaku and other packs. D: A bonfire is a great time to also meet the pack leaders, since normally staff are there with their characters and I always make sure that Wyndbain's there to attend the fun, so if you've ever thought it would be awesome sauce for your character to roleplay with some pack leaders, the Bonfire is a good place to make introductions and form strong pack bonds.
What is the SOSSPY? SOSSPY stands for: Shinkou Ookami Saturday Slumber PartY. Basically it's a time that everyone clears off in their calendars to make a bee-line for SO and roleplay all night long. >3 Usually this is for a Bonfire, but since only Shinkou, Akeru and loners can go to a bonfire, Giaku and other member packs can find others to roleplay with at this time as well, so everyone has fun in a SOSSPY! :3

lol Satu, even though your character may not be able to go to the bon fire, you can still post in other places. Usually on Sosspy nights,t heres a ton of rpers on and rp everywhere.
Remember: I felt a little depressed then, so I slit one of my wrists. I read a depressing book while I waited for it to stop bleeding and I listened to some GC.

Blah.. I've been waiting to say if I'll be there or not and I'm still not really certain though unfortunately, it might be a negative x.x It's been pending for a while now for me to get a computer but it's not going to be here in time. So I hope you guys have fun! Maybe I'll make the next one xD

OOH!! Bryn may be there... He's always willing to let his wanderer's curiosity lead him toward anything... He needs some socialization too haha..
If not him, then Nikita will likely be there in all her sassiness and high spirits xD
BUT, this all depends on when the boyfriend gets home and what he wants to do tonight.. Though I shall try to make it, it may not be for all night.
QUESTION: is this gonna be like a thing where everyone does their usual long and beautiful postehs? or will it be pretty much short (and descript) posting to accompany everyone? or.... BOTH? haha, I've never been to one of these things before *innocent puppy eyes*

Probably shorter posts, since so many people will be posting. Maybe the first few intro posts will be long and prettified but the rest I think should be short, so we can handle 'em all.
Its roots are in the way neopets guilds work. Yes, neopets and their guilds are the devil, but there was definitely an appeal to the chaos of having several people all at once posting short posts (there had been a character limit xD) at the same time. Sure it was chaotic but it made everything feel more like a community. Like an active cbox but with roleplay posts. 8D
