wordsidk| The Holly Heights Welcoming Committee is an IC organization. Primarily, it helps new characters settle in Holly Heights by greeting, answering questions, and inviting them to a monthly welcome party to meet new characters. To a lesser extent, the committee supposedly also networks with other organizations and businesses to create opportunities for other characters. The idea behind the committee is that new characters and players feel welcomed in the game. While we'll obviously be commenting around to any introductions that might come up each cycle, we're also here to help in other ways. Some players might have some trouble getting CR started whether it comes from playing an antisocial, technologically challenged character or just not having an idea for an intro post. For these types of characters, we'll offer an alternative to posting an intro in the form of an intro mingle log that all characters are invited to. There's also the fact that characters in Holly Heights will need jobs and might not know how to go about finding them. To remedy this, the Welcoming Committee has networked with some of the player run businesses and organizations that will make themselves available at the welcome party log. |
The welcoming committee will host a party log the day after applications close. It will be posted in ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small} shadygates under the &welcome log tag. All characters are invited to attend the welcome log. Presumably, flyers will be posted around the neighborhood, schools, and at some of the local businesses promoting a huge party for everyone. Alternatively, you can say you were invited by someone else in the game. For characters that wouldn't want to come anyway, assume the party has gotten large and festive enough to draw their attention one way or another. Every party party will feature plenty of food, lots of music, and event tables for characters to network at. All player run businesses and organizations will be invited and offered a table at the party to advertise. For this, a specific thread will be set up and it will be on the group to post information about their establishment. Here, characters can find employment or clubs to get involved with in the game. If you know a business or organization that would be interested in having a table, its advised to have links available to any info pages or roster they might have to comment to. As for everyone else, you will have the rest of the post to go wild. New and old players are encouraged to set up open threads for people to respond to. You can also include different options in your opener to give people more to respond to. |
| Anyone can join. ICly, the committee would only be active for about a few hours week each month and then it would meet again to plan and host the next party. The busiest day would be the day of the party which would ICly take the entire day to set up, host, and clean after. So there's really no need to worry about the committee getting in the way of another IC job or something. Joining would be a really good idea for social characters or characters that like helping people. It can also be a good idea for anti-social characters that might need an IC obligation to go out and meet new people. Notices (like when the log is going up, or anything else relevant) will normally be sent out as private messages to character journals! If you're interested in joining, fill out the following form |
