MOD POST: Mirrorverse Event!
Announcing Grid_Lined's very first game-wide event!
Inspired by a meme going around Plurk recently, we're having a Mirrorverse Event here on the Grid.
The Portal has glitched badly and is bringing in even more programs and Users than usual. However, it's not just pulling them from the "normal" locations, oh no. This time, the Portal is bringing in "mirrorverse" versions of programs and Users who already exist in the Grid.
What does this mean? Well, if your character is a good-aligned character, this means their mirrorverse version can be evil. Conversely, team bad guy characters might suddenly find their mirrored versions to be good versions of themselves. Basically, a true reversal of your character might appear at any time to confuse your friends, allies... and enemies.
GAMEPLAY:
1. This event will take place from August 20-September 3. Obviously, backtagging can occur longer.
2. You may create new journals for "mirrored" characters or simply make new icons in your current journal, whichever is easiest. If using your current journal, please do note when tagging or posting as a mirrorverse character.
3. If you like, you can use D&D alignment to figure out the mirrored shifts your character will take. (For example, Tron = Lawful Good, so mirror!Tron = Chaotic Evil oooh dear.) The disadvantage to this would obviously be for Neutral characters, so they can be shifted however you'd like. You can be creative in how you decide the mirrorverse of your character will have developed... but think of the Classic Trek episode "Mirror, Mirror" for how the idea came about.
4.To keep things a little less crazy, please have your characters change circuit colors (if they have them) to match their alignment. Do whatever you want with your circuit colors, switching colors if it's appropriate.
5. All mirrorverse characters will be pulled back through the Portal on September 3rd. (Though there will always be the option for them to return later as characters in their own right.)
Any questions? Plotting? Feel free to do so here!
