Hey, guys! It's been a while, but since we have a lot of new players, we thought it might be fun to revisit the idea of a memory tape event.
The original description was this...
"The idea is that each character opted in for the event gets an unmarked video tape of someone else's memory - said memory (or memories, as many as the player wishes to have on the tape within reason) can be good, bad, a secret they wouldn't normally share, or just something that'd be fun for someone else to see. No one can tell whose tape they have until they watch it, so everyone has to watch the one they've got so they can give it to the rightful owner."
To further incentivize characters to exchange tapes, the tapes come with a cryptic note.
'In order to facilitate connections with your fellow residents, we advise you to watch this video. Watch it and find the one whose memory you've encountered.
Failure to do so may put your own memories at risk. Do not be selfish, lest you find yourself struggling to recall crucial moments of your life. You have no way of knowing which memories have been shared, so ask yourself if it is worth the risk to selfishly hoard another's secrets.'
But we are open to player feedback and ways to best organize the event, as well as when to have it! We don't want to rush anyone, so the date is up in the air, but maybe late May or early June? Feel free to post ideas here and plan matchups! For reference, the original post was here.
