DISASTER AWAITS US --- open, biweekly tasks 10/9

LIES A THOUSAND HORRIFYING MEMORIES | | |
He knew he'd slept too easy the past two nights; he never slept easily unless he was blatantly blowing off responsibility, and he couldn't remember what he was blowing off. It was only when he recalled Lucerne's raid that he remembered he should be actually doing his high position duties, or whatever.

"I fucking- forgot about this. Whatever, everybody gather and get your chores." Salem called out, though he'd already sent a few couriers to track down some people and drag them back. He looked down at the list, scrunching up his face in a frown as he was met with a bunch of stupid, dull chores that Catalyst had told him to pass out for the health of the Badlands or whatever.

He took a pencil out of his pocket and began crossing them out, replacing them with absolutely better ones. Can't have people running around doing boring shit, then nobody would ever show up to his tasks.

"Alright, because I totally forgot and probably burned the cow self help book already I won't force anybody to read it. Sike, you're all getting a copy delivered as soon as I figure out who to blackmail to make that happen." Salem said as soon as he had a decent crowd. "I want reports, three hundred words long at least, or I'll break all your windows and let you freeze this winter. Got it? And technically Cat won, but since they weren't going to let me punish them anyways I've designed that Lucerne won since he grew a pair and led a raid."

"This round's incentive is- uh, a fucking halloween costume. I've got ways of getting whatever the winner wants, so start planning and hop to it." Salem said; though his words didn't imply trustworthiness, he wasn't lying. He could get whatever festive nonsense people asked for, and if they didn't want it he'd get it for them anyways.

"Alright, get up here and pick a task."



Let's start w/ a Darky-Fucking-Forgot apology. To make up for this, if you participated last week you can ask me - either thru messages or just post here - and I'll shoot you 10k bones. Use it to buy some explosives, or get your character an Ipod or w/e; or just hoard it, idm.

But yes moving on, for those who're unfamiliar with the way I'm running Biweekly Tasks currently, let me explain!

I'll provide a list of Tasks slash prompts, and you can post with your character claiming one of them. Next you make the thread related to the task, and whoever gets the most posts on their Task thread by the specified end date wins the prize! This round, the prize is a Halloween costume! It'll arrive in pristine condition, and can be a costume of anything your character decides they want.

Last week's winner was [member=9337]LUCERNE.[/member] with 6 posts! Thread Here. This was officalized at 4:10pm pst.
The end date for these tasks are 10/21/2019
(And to quell any potentially ruffled feathers, Bryne's aware and fine w/ Lucerne being crowned winner this round.)

I highly encourage the continued use of past task rp threads, though any past task threads won't count towards new prizes.
Also, to make this easier for me to count, I would like to politely ask you put the date (10/9) in your task's thread title, or somewhere on your first post of said thread. This isn't a necessity and threads without it will still be counted, but if you want to do me a favor I'd really appreciate it! But again, this is totally optional.

Alright, onto the prompts!

—Learn a new, non-violent skill (ex: sewing, fishing, gardening, carpentry, etc)
Run a boardgame night, with snacks
—Clean up one of the abandoned warehouses and fortify it as an emergency hideout
—Work on costumes/props for the haunted house
—Do a routine checkup on everybody to make sure nobody's come down with the flu or any other illness
—Gather a team and do a stealthy intel gathering mission on a nearby NPC group
—Host a public meet and greet for new and old members alike
Wash your fucking laundry for once
Get in the spirit, give out some candy or edible items that are substitutes for candy
Track down and kill the fox that's been sneaking in and eating supplies
And as a final reminder, these tasks should serve as prompts first and foremost and your thread can be staged at any part of doing them!

Lastly, if you've got any thoughts, ideas, concerns, etc, feel free to message me on this subaccount or my main account darky! I'm completely open to feedback of any kind, positive or negative.
