So I remember chit-chatting with someone (I've forgotten who and I'm too lazy to go back through plurk I'm sorry - I SHALL CREDIT YOU ONCE I FIND OUT WHO) about putting together a list of the alternate canon-names we're to have for the media our characters consume in this lovely AU.

Just cause everyone likes lists. No other reason.

I know I've already done it a few times myself in tags, but I think it might be awesome to try to have continuity on that front? Not that it really matters, it just sounds fun lol.

Anyway, I'd gladly make the list of what we have so far and give it to our lovely mod(s?) if anyone's interested.

Comment here with the stuff you've made up (if you remember it) and - ideally - the comment it was made in? SOURCE CHECKS PEOPLE /shot

Hello I am a Kat and I'm gonna try and be a helper.

I have no idea what else to call this but anyway. I've been rolling on this concern for a bit since hearing people being afraid of dead threads on the TDM or just coming late to the party and fearing tagging out because they'll get lost. I think I'm the only relic that uses the subscription features, not everyone follows the mod plurk, not everyone even has a plurk, and with the awesome spread of time-zones we have it's not a surprise that things might get lost in the wheels. This is not inherently a bad thing! But I also want to try and minimize that in whatever way I can. Which brings us here.

This is for current players to volunteer to be contacted to comment on the TDM to help aspiring players hit the app requirement if they're late arrivals/worried about dropped threads/just wanna be positive they get the threads they need, et cetera. It means being totally open and willing to be contacted by random people via your option of choice - PMs, plurk, the works - and being able to complete an application-length thread in the shortest time possible. I'm not policing actual thread lengths or tag speed cause that's silly, but let's say like. If someone posts on the TDM 1-2 days before apps close, we'll be able to help them out. If they post with ten minutes left, then. Welp.

So! If you're okay with being hypothetically accosted by strangers and think you can spin up tags on the fly for your surprise assailant, please fill this short form out!

Name: so they know who you are
Preferred Contact Method: PMs/Plurk/Skype/etc; so they know how to get in contact
Time Zone: so depending on what time of day they comment, they'll know where to aim their requests.

And note, this is not the mod's responsibility so don't direct questions to them. Shoot them at me instead! I'll maintain a short list on this post, so if anyone wishes to remove themselves from the list (school/work/life gets busy again, hiatus or drops, just don't feel like it), feel free to comment here as well and I'll remove you.

hopefully that all made sense screeches in horror
