Crackplot ahoy: Misfortune Cookies

[leeshajoy.livejournal.com]

It's been far too long since we got a new crackplot started. rushin_doll and I aim to change that, with a plot tailor-made for Chinese New Year.

Sometime during the coming day, The Middleman (im_just_the) will breeze through Milliways after a mission, and accidentally leave a large box of fortune cookies behind. Those cookies will be picked up by Bar and distributed to patrons with their meals. The catch is, these cookies are enchanted--or cursed, depending on your point of view. The fortunes come true.

From the mun's point of view, what happens is this: You visit fortunecookiemessage.com to get a random fortune, then post an EP of your pup getting a fortune cookie with that message inside. Your goal as a mun is to make it happen for that pup sometime within the next week or so. It can be in-bar or in an OOM, involving other pups or all by your lonesome--whatever tickles your fancy. That said, you get bonus points for interpreting the fortune in the most literal and/or insane way possible. :)

The plot will officially kick off tomorrow, February 3, and continue until people get bored with it. Use the tinytag "Plot: Misfortune Cookies" on all relevant entries. This plot is completely opt-in and open-ended. If you want to participate, just dive right in. If you don't, don't. Simple as that.

Comment here if you have any questions, and gung hay fat choy to all!

Thank you! I've actually been kicking this idea around for a while now, Chinese New year just seemed like the perfect time to pull it out.

An interesting challenge, since most of the fortunes I got were not inherently cracky. But a good player can change that, yes?

In fact, most of the fortunes aren't, y'know, predicting anything. But a sufficiently creative individual can work around that.
