How's My Driving | February 2016

HELLO CHELONAUTS! It's been a while since we've had a game-wide HMD post, so here's the first one of 2016!

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><big><b><i>Player Name</i></b></big></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.

Character Name: Yami no Bakura
Canon: Yuugiou
User Name: denyamenti
Focus: Other than making some Very Bad Personal Decisions, he's been on pretty even keel lately. He's got the ghosties back, at the price of Zorc once more hanging around, but overall he's been much happier since. Mostly I've been keeping him on a low profile and not involved in any plots because mod, but I'm always open for character things with him.

Character Name: River Tam
Canon: Firefly
User Name: problematical
Focus: I worry about her voice all the time. I find it really hard to balance her method of speech between brilliant and not making her TOO childlike... that sort of wander-y quality is really hard to portray in text. So definitely feedback on that would be appreciated. I haven't done too much with her abilities yet because even with the permissions post, I'm always concerned about overstepping. But ICly, she's super happy that her brother is here!! ♥
