COLORS CHAT #19

[skybuns]

It's time to sit back, relax, and pour yourself an ice cold glass of... milk. All these games are so great and fun but everyone needs a chance to just unwind and talk. So welcome to Colors Chat!

Here, you will get a topic and you can talk about it all you want. Just listen to your heart and write what you feel like. For your six sentences, you'll get 5 cards. And you should always go around and talk to people, see if you can make new friends or old friends with new light on them or you know, just talk with everyone! It is a chat after all.

Today's topic:
Topics for the future! Is there a subject you'd love to see as a topic for Colors Chat in the future? Or maybe there's an old topic you liked and want to see again? Speaking of past topics, was there a past topic you liked?

To encourage discussions between players, there's a bonus - for every conversation that is at least 5 comments long all participants will receive two random cards. This is not limited, so talk to as many people as you wish!

Please keep all comments civil and polite. You might disagree with someone, but please do not start a flame war. THANK YOU and enjoy your weeks!

This round closes on Tuesday, July 29th, but the next Colors Chat will go up on the 27th. CLOSED

I love hearing about what people are currently in to and what they want to collect. The "character you want to have decks" and the "series that need decks" discussion are always interesting to me. There are always series and characters that I'd like to collect but I'm never sure if anyone else would want them too. "Unusual/Less popular ships you like" would be interesting as well as discussions about favorite types of character like "favorite child character", "favorite glasses character" or "favorite funny character". I'd also love a discussion on what everyone is currently watching/reading. It's always fun to flail about a new show with other fans.

I really love chatting about favorite series, favorite characters, and things like that. Of course, you can only ask those questions so many times... But it'd be nice to maybe talk about more specific variants of that sort of thing? Like what kind of series do you like to mass collect, talk about a character you're currently collecting, etc. It'd be cool to have questions that tie character/series preferences into what you're doing in the actual TCG. Unfortunately, I haven't really participated in Colors Chat enough to know much about previous topics (because I'm lazy), but that's my two cents!

I would really like to hear about what shows people are watching or what books they're reading or games they're playing! It's always fun to see people discuss something you like and then jump in and make some new friends along with it. After all, what better way of making a new friend than finding out that they like the same strange thing that you do!?

It's also a fun way to finding out what decks someone may want to collect or have already collected without poking around their page on top of making new friends! All like "Hey cool, you like Yuru Yuri? I have this card from a character's deck in that series, would you want to trade?" along with becoming friends perhaps!

and maybe I would like to follow more cool people on plurk who like visual novels and would laugh at my flailing too. that would cool too. ;v;

[forevertobestill]

Ooh, so many possibilities! I think discussing favourite music artists and suggesting recommendations would be fun. I second all the more fandom based suggestions such as discussing pairings, fanfictions, theories and fandom as a whole. Or random things such as most underrated series, series that you wish got a sequel, favourite ending to a game/series, etc.

I haven't been a member for that long, but I really enjoyed the discussion about collecting, it was really fun to read!

I can never really run out of things to talk about, but it's harder to think of things to talk about on the spot. I'd be interested in hearing video game recommendations from other people, I don't know if that's happened. I know we did anime once? Or, at least...I think we did. It doesn't matter. Recommendations! Recommendations are fun and I need them often.

[arilyn9]

Someone mentioned above so I'm gonna second! I'd like to talk about ships and pairings and maybe what decks those would be and how they would look together etc.

[skybuns]

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll be sure to implement it some time in the future.

[skybuns]

Hm.. sounds like a good idea, your first one. I can probably use that topic every once in a while, so I'll make note of it.

Also, I nabbed your last suggestion for the next Colors Chat |D Thanks for your suggestions!

[skybuns]

The second suggestion was done recently in the anniversary event, so it will be a while before I can pull it out again. But I'll note it down anyway, since it was a really good topic.

The roleplay one sounds pretty good too. It'd be pretty cool to see who among us Colors player RP, and maybe what characters.

Thanks for your suggestions!

[skybuns]

I dunno, it's hard to say. Thanks to some of the suggestions here I've thought up a good idea that might encourage more chatting, but I think a fair amount of us like to keep to ourselves or plurk.

Thank you!

[skybuns]

Oh, I really love your suggestions *^* Your first gave me a pretty good idea that might encourage a lot of chatting, and yes. Silly card game problems, I know I have some.

I'm glad you liked the pun topic! I'll consider reusing it in the far, far future.

Thank you for your suggestions!

[skybuns]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Problem is, a lot of us are busy, or don't live in the same timezone, or prefer not to talk with others. At least, on dw. Plurk seems to be a better medium for chatting, since everyone blabs a lot there.

Those ideas are pretty good, I'll note them down!

Thanks for your suggestions!

[skybuns]

Here's your bonus!

Here's your bonus!

[skybuns]

'Favourites' topics do seem to do well, don't they? Thanks for your suggestions, they've all been noted!

[skybuns]

Neither am I, hence this Colors Chat |D

It's alright! Thanks for your contributions!

[skybuns]

Yes, it's always wonderful to find people who share the same interests as you! Then you can chat with them forever and ever about them...

Thanks for your suggestions! They've been noted down.

[skybuns]

Oh, that's a good idea! It would encourage a lot more discussions among the players, so I'm definitely noting this down. Thanks for the suggestion!

[skybuns]

Your wish has been granted c:

Ooh, yes, the character one is a good idea. I'll note that down for the future. (Don't worry, I am too.)

Thanks for your suggestions!!

[skybuns]

What about topics like hobbies other than fandom related ones? Would those be uncomfortable for you?

Favourites is always a good topic c:

Thanks for your contributions!

[skybuns]

Ohh.... yes. Yesss, I would love to have this topic. I enjoy reading fanfics a lot but it's so hard to search for good ones.... definitely noting this down!

Thanks for the suggestion!

[skybuns]

It's always fun to lure people into our fandoms and then watch them drown in the pain and tears, isn't it?

Thanks for the suggestion, it's been noted down!

[skybuns]

Hm... it's true there's often overlap between chats and events, but they're planned by different people so it can't be helped sometimes. I'll note your suggestions down though, maybe I'll come up with a good idea eventually!

Thanks for your suggestions!

[skybuns]

Favourites are always a pretty good conversation starter! And I haven't exhausted that option yet... I'll note your suggestions down, thank you!

[skybuns]

I was thinking about putting topics that weren't as relevant to Colors, so it's good to hear some people are thinking the same thing.

Thank you for your suggestions, I've noted them down!
