How's My Driving | July 2013

Three months have already passed since the last HMD? You betcha! This means that it's time to kick off the fourth quarterly gamewide HMD here in Tu Shanshu! Things are getting structured a little differently this time, so read on for details.

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.
  
• New! We ask that each concrit provided consist of one positive and one constructive bit of feedback. Bring up something that you like about that player, and in the same comment provide something that you feel they could work on. This is to help round out the feedback and provide a better experience all around.
  

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.

Player Name Box
Character Name: Maxwell Lord
Canon: DC Comics
User Name: takeittothemax
Focus: I'm wondering if I have the balance between his jerkness and his good side done well, or if it's leaning too far towards one end of the spectrum as opposed to others. He's also at a really delicate canonpoint, i.e. before the big heel face turn, so I'm wondering if that's going well too!

Character Name: Kirei Kotomine
Canon: Fate/Zero
User Name: structuraldefect
Focus: He's brand new here, so I'm not sure if there's anything yet! But if there is, let me know!

If you'd rather take it to my private HMDs, you can! Comments are screened on request and anonymous commenting is enabled for all of them!
