How's My Driving | March 2015

HELLO CHELONAUTS! It's been a while since we've had a game-wide HMD post, so here's the first one of our new arc!

How's My Driving?
While each and every character must have an HMD page available, we offer a game-wide 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.
  
• 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.

To make things easier, here's a handy-dandy code box:

<big><b><i>Player Name</i></b></big> <i>Character Name:</i> <i>Canon:</i> <i>User Name:</i> <user name=""> <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.

We talk a lot off-comm, so most of my thoughts you already know. But I want to reply here anyway. :)

You play a mean Zuko. And by mean, I mean sarcastic. And also mean as in grouchy. As Zuko is wont to be. So kudos there. I don't think you're losing your voice too much, all in all.

I'd offer you help trying to get your footing with out-of-canon characters and establishing more of an IC presence in game, but my main CR with you (being Sokka) sadly doesn't help, and I don't know how Genis and Zuko would interact much. That said, you know I'm always willing to do threads, so if you ever want to brainstorm, let me know. :)
