Hey! Earlier you indicated that you might be interested in taking part in fun things during Spies 6. The first such activity is coming up soon so if you're interested read what it entails and I'll get you in. =)
This activity would have 3 parts. First, you would need to spend 10-15 min doing some preparation. You'd have like 1 week to do that so I don't think that would be a problem haha.
Second, you'd need to do maybe 1 or 2 10 minute short things whenever you have time starting like... May 28th. Sometime between May 28th and say June 2nd you'd do those 10 minute short thing/s when you have time.
Third you'd need to sign up for a time to participate in a challenge. This challenge would be the weekend of Friday May 29th to Sunday May 31st. You'd sign up for 1-3 15-25 minute rounds in which you would show up at the time you pick and spend 15-25 minutes doing something. It's up to you and how much time you have available if you want to do that once, twice, or maybe three times.
That's it! So if you think you will have the time available for that, especially during the May 29th - May 31st weekend, then e-mail me back and I'll tell you the details and get you all set up. Thanks!
Sweet. You will be participating in an event called Future Week in which you will be playing as future characters in upcoming Spies games.
Your season is:
First you need a name and a picture for your character. The idea of future week is that you might end up using this character in a future Spies game! It's not a 100% certainty that that character will appear but it could happen. So find a name and picture (or I can give you a picture if you want but it's going to be the first one I find haha). Then make an AIM name by going here:
reg.my.screenname.aol.com/_cqr/registration/initRegistration.psp?lang=en&locale=us&createSn=1&sitedomain=www.aim.com&siteState=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aim.com%2Fget_aim%2Fcongratsd2.adp&mcAuth=%2FBcAG0oKbPgAAK9JCVEmq0oKbTQI1bhy4%2BkxrccAAA%3D%3D
Then make a proboards name called your spies#name. Just throw in any random e-mail into it it doesn't matter. Note: You should probably keep this character a secret from others as you may want to use it in a future game!
Okay so that's your preparation. You can spice it up if you want to but it's not necessary. Once you've done that get back to me!
Second, during Episode 3, you are going to be a Ghost of Spies Future. Basically you will contact the players and pretend to be playing a future Spies game. The starting idea was to send them an AIM message and start talking to them, maybe saying random things from the future about your spies season (maybe spies 8) or teasing them that you know how their game plays out and who the spies are. That might be fun but the possibilities are endless, here's what else you could do:
- Send a few people a PM with strange, apocryphal messages or taunts or random things from the future (maybe stock prices! haha)
- Team up with another player, join the chat room where everyone hangs out, and pretend to be in a fight in Spies 9. accuse the other of being a spy, reference "past events" that took place in spies 9, reference made up characters and things that happened
- Talk nonchalantly about made up twists or roles or events that shocked you in future spies games
- post on the board random future-y stuff.
Okay those are just my brainstorms I'm sure you can think up stuff too. While I think this might be fun and shocking for random future players to show up and start talking, I mean after about 10-15 minutes the schtick will probably get a bit old lol. So that's why I said only 1 or 2 sessions of 10 minutes in that last e-mail. Maybe just do your thing then sign off right away before it gets old hat haha.
For part three, the future players will be competing against the players in the game in an epic challenge! This is why I said you needed to sign up for a time. The game will take place in rounds, you versus the players. You sign up for a time, show up, compete in the round, and then you are done. I will post the rules of the game in an upcoming forum for everyone to see, if you have questions please ask. I will post the times on the board.
I'll probably send you another e-mail as we get closer to that date. Keep in touch! =) (and keep this hush hush haha)
