Colors Musical Playground - part 1


Art by Chuu!

Hi guys! Welcome to a suprise bonus side event for the BOTB - the Musical Playground!

What is the Playground? Well, it's a special area of our giant stadium, where the players and the audience can rest a bit, play with both their team mates and rivals, and forget about the competitive aspect of the event at least for a while! You can find some more laid-back tasks to do and get some more cards.

I'm not sure how many rounds of this event will we have, for now.

The first round's task for the players is tell us a heartwarming story about a positive experience involving a certain person at Colors! Maybe someone gifted you a card that you needed for mastery? Maybe someone traded you ten awesome cards at once? Maybe someone donated a deck that you totally want? Or maybe someone submitted an amazing fanart of your favourite Colors character? Tell us all about that!

You can post up to 3 short stories! They can even be 2 sentences long! There are only 3 requirements:

- each story must involve a fellow Colors player
- if you write multiple stories, they must be about different players
- MOST IMPORTANT: the players that you are talking about must have chosen a different 1st priority than you in the signups post. This is a rule aiming to help you get more friendly with players from the opposing teams! (Also: if you haven't signed up, you can still write about any player)
- anyone can take part in this event, even if they aren't signed up for BOTB! As long as they are currently players at Colors, it's fine! Also, anyone can write about those awesome people who did something awesome but aren't signed for the BOTB.

The prizes are 2 random cards per story, making a total of 6 random cards!

You have time until the teams' lineups are announced, that is July 26th! The next event in this series will involve trading with players from different teams, though I cannot say for sure when it will be posted.

This event is now over! You may still write your stories, but there won't be any prizes!

Happy writing!

When I first joined, [personal profile] aestivalis and [personal profile] shinsengumi both helped me get started by giving me four cards each! It was a really nice boost when I had less than ten to start with.

I also signed up with Form as my collecting deck but had a lot of problems finding the cards for it. Either the cards people had in their trade piles were ones I already had, or someone else was also collecting them and seemed to have better luck with the randomizer than I did. But then [personal profile] baredick ended up with a ton of green crayons and offered to turn them in for anyone who needed them, and then she grabbed a bunch of form cards for me and traded them to me! This was a huge help and I was finally able to get the last three with crayons I had traded for on my own!

[personal profile] ceesoo is someone I didn't really know before Colors, but she keeps popping into my trade post with cards she grabbed for me either from the new card posts or from other trades! It's really nice to find someone who is thinking of you, especially when you were originally strangers. Colors has been very good at encouraging that, I feel. :>
