FEEDBACK POST



TAKING NOTES



Thank you for playing in Round 2 of Castle Whimsical! We'd like to take this opportunity to get some feedback from you. As always, we tried to incorporate some experiments into the execution of the game. Some things may have gone well for a first run, and others may have missed the mark.

Please let us know any feedback you have about the game in this post, including what might have worked well and where we can improve in our next game! We hope to be able to incorporate more mods into the team in the future, which we hope will streamline the running of more intensive events like the final trial. Other changes are also in the works!

While we aren't sure when or if another round of Castle Whimsical will run, we want to continue to improve the experience for our players. Please let us know: We appreciate you sharing your perspectives!

Comments are screened by default, but please let us know if you prefer to have your comment unscreened and we'll do so! Thank you very much!

LOVE MEME



THANK YOU



Thank you for playing in Round 2 of Castle Whimsical, everyone! It's been a wild ride from start to finish, and we're excited that you chose to join us for this semester. You've all done amazing work!

Please comment in the post below and reply to others sharing your good thoughts! This is your opportunity to gush and share love.

Since I'm the one making the post, I, Shay, will take this opportunity to say my words of love now instead of posting below. This round was my first true foray into MG moderating, and I really learned a lot! As the person responsible for a lot of upkeep-related modwork like location writeups, regains, and weekly mingle/motive/investigation/trial top posts, I hope that my writing gave you lots of things to thrill, excite, and scare! While I unfortunately won't be able to return to Castle Whimsical for another round, I'm glad that I had the chance to work with you all this time. I'm really blown away by the creativity and quick thinking of our playerbase. We had tons of clever killers, victims who went above and beyond in planning their cases, and detectives who put their all into analyzing clues. I appreciate you for being funny, active, engaged players. Thank you all again for playing with me!

WELCOME IN



(This gif did not qualify for the school spelling bee...)


Welcome to Round 2 of Castle Whimsical! We're excited to experience this wild ride with all of you and explore all of your characters' little fears. Before then, we'd like to invite you to introduce yourselves to one another!

Please feel free to introduce yourself to your fellow players on this post! Greet one another, share your excitement, gush over character choices, exchange gifs - while we're getting everything ready for school to open its doors on Monday, take this opportunity to mingle with your fellow players! The pre-mingle mingle, if you will.

In your comment, you may want to include some basic information like your name, contact information, and pronouns if you'd like to disclose them. Add whatever else you'd like: a little bit about yourself, your peak tagging times, your outside interests, your general excitement, etc. While you may want to include a few lines about your character, we highly encourage you to keep any relevant secrets they have under wraps if you don't want them to be discovered. Part of the fun is discovering these things in play, after all!

We hope you enjoy your stay!

I know it's late but here's the feedback post for the round. As my first real modding experience, I learned a lot and there are many things that can be improved for round two. If you have some ideas on how to improve the experience for next time let us know here.

The biggest change that will come to round two is that I, Yue, won't be modding alone so that will help a lot with some issues. That's right, as mentioned in the love post Shay will be joining the mod team.

Comments are screened by default but if you want me to unscreen yours, let me know.

It's been a long, wild ride, everyone! Yet, now it's over. The first round of Castle Whimsical is now over and I want everyone to show appreciation for everyone else. A mod can only do so much for a game since it's truly the players that make the game great.

Post a comment, love on the other players. You all deserve it.

Welcome, dear friends! It seems that the Queen has taken interest in you and has decided to take you to her Castle. That is, welcome to Castle Whimsical's test drive meme! Ready to send your characters to a hell castle run by a brat? The opening might be a couple of months away but sometimes you want to play in a setting regardless.


Not a soul can say; but I can guess. Murder, of course )

Hello, everyone! This is Yue ([plurk.com profile] savingdaisydiva) and this is a more formal interest check/introduction to Castle Whimsical, a murdergame for younger characters. It will involve memory loss in a different sort of way. At the start of the game your character will have all their memories but each week instead of gaining a memory, they will lose a memory from their canon. There will only be a handful of memories lost (one for each week of the game, minus the final week) but I'm up to setting up situations for those who want to lean more heavily into it. Due to the fact that this is aimed for younger characters there will be an age cap of sixteen for human characters.

These aren't reserves. I'm just seeing how much interest is out there. The TDM can be found here.

Please read the OOC Rules, IC Rules, and FAQ.

Name+Contact Info: Your name and your Plurk/Discord name.
Timezone: Where do you live?
Likelihood: How likely do you think you'll apply?
Character Considerations: Who do you think you'd like to play?
Any questions? Do you have any questions? If you want to link a meme or something here, you can.
