How's My Driving | April 2013

[ironwood]

Spring has been sprung! All over the Western hemisphere, flowers are blooming, bunnies are bounding, and the little clickity-clack of rper fingers at keyboards is in the air! To kick off the season in style, it's time for our third HMD here at Tu Shanshu.

How's My Driving?
While each and every character must have an HMD page available, we offer a gamewide HMD once every calendar quarter. This is an opportunity to get together and discuss IC interpretations and portrayals in a respectful, beneficial fashion. In a nutshell, it's a chance to see how we're doing in the grand scheme of things.

There are a few ground rules to cover off before we can start:

• Participation in the quarterly HMD is 100% optional.
  
• Be respectful, anon or not. It's a lot easier to give and receive crit if all parties are making it a discussion of it rather than an argument.
  
• IP logging is off and anonymous commenting is on. You can offer crit signed-in if you like, but the option's there.
  

That's it, that's all!

And, to make things easier, here's a handy-dandy codeset:

<big><b><i>Player Name</i></b></big> <i>Character Name:</i> <i>Canon:</i> <i>User Name:</i> <I>Focus:</i> Optional. Do you have particular concerns about your portrayal that you'd like to be the focus of crit? You can link any threads you'd like a second opinion on here. If you're looking for structural feedback, or would prefer things like grammar not be mentioned, put it here.

Chiqui!
Character Name: Leo Valdez
Canon: Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus
User Name: fotia
Focus: IDK lol just if you see anything off in him, fire away!

Character Name: Marius Pontmercy
Canon: Les Miserables
User Name: saisamour
Focus: I know I probably took him from a really difficult canon point, and he's pretty unsociable to begin with, but WHAT THE HELL WHO NEEDS EASY IN THEIR LIFE RIGHT. That said, I'm really concerned as to whether he's too dreamy/indifferent/happy/dumb, or, alternatively, if I'm not doing it enough. ALSO, since he's pretty new, if there are any concerns about him/his personality/just what I'm doing with/to him in general that you think might pop up in the future?
