So recently I had to come up with some mechanism to force Thom and Ursula to talk to each other for a thread, which lead me to invent a vague wizarding card game that involves playing against one other person and shuffling from one table to the next every few minutes.
This has since struck me as a super fun dynamic and I'd like to actually have a thread like this that has short conversations and regular rotations - like speed dating sort of but without the dating aspect, necessarily xD
My vision for how this would work is:
- people sign up characters
- I put them all in a list and separate them into group a/group b.
- group a starts threads which group b joins
- after 3 posts from each character, everyone in group b switches threads (which can be done whenever the next thread is ready for you, not like, on a certain timeline or anything)
- IC this all happens at some generic party (so respectable-ish MC/UC folks)
Benefits for you:
- It's pretty low effort interaction and you don't have to think of ways to start threads
- Your character gets to meet people IC and maybe discover dynamics you otherwise wouldn't have
- If two characters have literally nothing to say to each other you get to awkwardly glare for three posts!
