Car Keys: 2007
Being that we have so many new muns and so many new canons, I felt it prudent to suggest that we do another "Car Keys" game.
*cough*
At the height of the swingers craze, the car-keys game was (and still is, I don't know) quite popular at parties. At the height of the evening, couples would put their car keys into a jar and draw out a different set at the end of the evening. Long story short, you would go home with the spouse of the opposing sex who came attached to that specific keys that the person drew. *cough*
While I don't know all the facts, that seems to be the gist of it. Car Keys threads for milliways are the same deal, except without the innuendo.
The fact of the matter is, oftentimes pups will go through the bar without tags. This is a fun way to introduce characters, give people threads, and all in all foster meeting new muns and puppets-which is what the game's all about. Right? Right. Now! Onto the rules!
Simply put here's the skinny.
1. You read this. You are intrigued. "I have [Puppet X] who could stand to meet new people! This sounds like lots of happy wai fun!"
2. You leave a list of the puppets you would like to participate in the game! "Gee! I think [Puppets X, Y, Z, A, and B would be fun]
3. I, compile a list of puppets based on the comments to this post. I then take the list and pair each puppet off using a random dice sight. (Think this year's secret Santa Icontest)
4. You read the happy wai list, and you plan a thread. Perhaps James Bond will discuss Geese Juggling with Wash, perhaps Hiro Nakamura will confront the Master Chief, One of the Ninja Turtles versus Puss in Boots-
5. You have the thread. You are agreeing to thread if you sign up for this. You can't say "omg I got a sucky puppet! I dun wanna thread with him/her/them. What are we gonna talk about?" This isn't because I'm rude or nasty or anyone else is rude or nasty, it's just not nice to leave other puppets hanging.
Sound good? Did I miss anything?
If you're interested
Leave a list of the puppets you would like to participate in this. I'll close the car-keys post on Friday of this week, and compile a list.
