Event Suggestions

Post by Sporks »

Hey all!


As we all know, Boolprop is more than "just" a place to post your stories, vote, and then go off on your merry way. We're a community, and one way that works well is having events. We have a few new that you can look at and partake in, and we definitely have a lot more planned and lined up for you. ;)

However, we want to hear your input on what events YOU as members want to see, and we might throw out what we're thinking of and see how y'all feel about that.

Comment with suggestions and ideas!

I would love to see games of Wordner being held, like the Cards Against Humanity thread is now running it. Perhaps at regular intervals, so we know when they're going to be happening. :)

Sorry to double-post, but how about a monthly "back up your game" day?

Seems like a good idea :thup: Maybe the 1st every month? We could also put more emphasis on the "What's going on in your game", or perhaps everyday life, to see what's changed since last time we decided to just pause up in our secure spot.

Keika, could you explain a bit more about the Back Up Your Game event?

Could we do something like guess the parent of the toddlers. Credit: Colorist40.

She would post a picture of a toddler. Then post the dad and moms and see which one was the mom to that toddler. It was alot of fun.

How about a BoolProp IDOL event for members who dedicate their time into the forum, whether it's for helping the forum grow, or for actively participating in the events? We could have different kinds of Idols too, such as best storyteller of the of the year, etc. and such with polls and nominees.

Technically, this is not my idea, but I adopted it from another forum for Asian Dramas and feel like it might be a good addition to the forum here. :D

We already have that! The Golden Plumbobs are coming up in January. :)

And Pudd, thanks for the idea! That sounds intresting and we'll throw it into consideration for sure!

To be honest, it was just a random thought. I don't know what else we could implement on the day; only that I've seen myself and other forum members lose everything because we haven't backed up our neighborhoods, or downloads folders, or whatever. I'm not sure if it's really a good idea or not, but personally I think it might be good to have a reminder in the form of a fun event. *shrug* :pan:

I actually think this is a brilliant idea. It reminds me of the Back Up Your Novel Friday in NaNoWriMo. Backing up your game is ALWAYS tedious work, but I think it'll be fun if everyone has to the tedium as well. Better than losing everything, though! ;)

:) What about a scavenger hunt. Also a screenshot event or a costume party?

I like all those ideas, especially that of a scavenger hunt. For example, a list of rare animations/sequences/objects/whatever in each sims game that the person has to get pictures of (from within a certain time limit--not from old chapters from their challenges)? Such as for TS2, a werewolf transformation without cheats? That seems like a Halloween-y sort of thing.

Maybe this isn't a specifically Halloween event, but what about a plumbob hunt? EA likes to hide plumbobs in unusual places (graduation caps, gloves, etc.)--what if everyone kept a tally of the plumbobs they found? Or maybe a collaborative plumbob hunt, and try to get all of us to find all the plumbobs in the games between us?

The Wordsearch thing with a Halloween theme, monster origin stories *is remembering Boolprop 1.0.*, screenshots are always good, themed things like Nemo's Thriller Sims 2 zombie fest that was EPIC!! :awesome: And I do like team banners, I actually made some nice ones for Christmas events on Boolprop 2.0., specific team themed mini forums like for the Hunger Games events way back in 2011, was it?

Have you all made a Boolprop Neighborhood? Smself Families... Community Built businesses... Stories... Can all play and share.

I would love to be able to keep up with my favorite Stories. I can get notices when they're updated... most of the time I forget where I was and when it was last updated, if I didn't get time to reply. :(

I miss the Cards Against Humanity, it was funny to see how other Boolpropians play those cards.
