HMD Meme: October

— HOW'S MY DRIVING: OCTOBER —


Hello, everyone! As a reminder or for those who were not yet with us when the game was polled during the spring, the gamewide HMD meme is held quarterly, or every three months. Please read through the guidelines below before posting!

Below are some guidelines to remember for the meme:

  • Optional: This is not a mandatory HMD. You do not have to participate, however we highly encourage those who have questions or want tips to comment.
  • No Anon: According to the poll results, the playerbase wishes to not have any anon commenters on our HMD meme. As such, when leaving constructive criticism and comments, please be sure you are logged in with your Empatheias-accepted character journal. Anonymous comments will be deleted.
  • Be polite and constructive: This HMD is to help players improve their playing and thereby improve the experience of everyone. It is also to help players point out things that might be questionable. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons for it, and sometimes it's a misinterpretation or clear mistake. Regardless, your critique should be helping the other player see their mistake and/or offer ways to help improve. You can be frank, you can be blunt, but you should not be disrespectful. Critique can be a hard pill to swallow, and while you shouldn't have to sugarcoat it, you can try to make it more palatable. In addition, try to provide actual examples of what you're talking about. It will help facilitate the discussion and give a better idea of your point.
  • Be open-minded and receptive: Receiving critique can be difficult at times, but if you're participating in this HMD, then that must mean you are prepared for that possibility. If you receive critique that doesn't make sense, do not be defensive. Instead ask questions and try to clear up misunderstandings. In addition, be open to what people have to say. Sometimes we have blinders on when playing our characters and may not see problems that others do. Be willing to compromise as well. Maybe you don't agree with everything that is said, but there could be helpful nuggets in there. If there are things you are specifically worried about, you should include it in your comment. This could help others help you.
  • This meme is moderated: We will be monitoring this post, and if any harassment is found, it will be immediately screened and frozen. Any repeat offenders will be banned. If there is anything to report, please do not hesitate to contact us.

If you understand how this HMD works, fill out the appropriate form and comment to this post. The questions should help players have some structure and formulate how and what to write what they want.

Personal HMD? Over here! Anon on, IP logging off, screening on, the works.

My main concern with Shiro right now is honestly just that following his canon update this month, he's now a walking, unavoidable spoiler for the end of season 6 all the way down to his icons, and I'd like to know if that's an issue for anyone.

kaboop: (❧ chillin like a villain)

[personal profile] kaboop 2018-10-16 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Auste
Character(s): Nora Valkyrie ([personal profile] kaboop) and Charles-Henri Sanson ([personal profile] painalty)
Personal HMD? Nora + Sanson

OVERALL I apologize for being really slow on tags lately, work has been a butt.

Nora is going through a lot of castmates, especially important ones, leaving. It's been quite a while already but it still stings.

Sanson, okay, I'll narrow it down to a couple of things:
- I keep switching between calling him "Charles" and "Sanson" in the brackets because prior to apping him here, I got really used to "Sanson" but I understood that being who he is, he doesn't want to give his last name out so easily. So for the canon familiar players I tend to default to "Sanson". But generally, his name in the game is "Charles" to those who don't know his full name. Please let me know if this gets too confusing.

- FGO has only enough info for me to be able to write a full app so at times I tend to fly by the seat of my pants while playing him. I do look back at canon though so let me know if I start to diverge a bit too much. He's also in the middle of a character arc here where he comes to terms with his past and who he is and stuff but I don't want to stray too far from canon, weh.

I've been incredibly slow lately due to extensive RL commitments but have been reluctant to hiatus because RP is pretty much my only outlet right now. XD; I really sincerely apologize for my slowness on threads but I super appreciate everybody bearing with me and my tag speed.

I had a rocky summer and took a hiatus last month that bled over into this month which led to me being pretty darn slow and thread-droppy for a while there; I'm very sorry! So that's an issue that I'm trying to work on, and if there's anything else I need to correct, please let me know!
