SPEED BEFRIENDING

Hey Holly Heights, the Neighbors Club is hosting a speed dating event soon! Only it's for making friends.

What?
Speed dating.

Is it a club-only event? Can my character join?
No, it is free-for-all! Anyone can join. Feel free to assume your character was dragged in by Kobato Hanato, Daisuke Niwa, Medaka Kurokami, Hayate Ayasaki, Rydia, Mei or any of the Neighbors Club members.

How will this work?
First, sign up by commenting in the thread below. There is no character cap, but I will be closing sign-ups on January 23, Thursday, 6am GMT +8.

Then, a log will go up Friday evening or Saturday morning GMT +8 at the latest. It will look something like this, but without the sloppy image guides. Instead, I will be using a spreadsheet, so you will be referring to that!

A thread per round must be 20 comments long. This means there will be 10 comments from your character and 10 comments from your partner before your time is up. Use it wisely!

Are players allowed to sign up more than one character?
No. One character per player, please!

May I sign other people up?
ICly, yes! OOCly, no. Please have the players themselves sign their character up. This is to make counting easier for me!

My character is shy! It will be difficult for them to initiate conversation.
We can't hold their hand, but there will be cue cards provided. I will make a list of prompts and questions Yozora and co. would pen and you will be free to pick or RNG from them.

How is this ICly happening?
On January 24, Yozora will ask the Neighbors Club to advertise it in the span of a couple of hours. She'll kind of... be in shock depending on the turnout! It will be held in the high school gym.

How many rounds will there be?
If our sign-up count is below 20, there will be that many rounds. If the sign-up count is above 20, there will be 20 rounds maximum. So if 14 people sign up, there will be 14 rounds, but if 32 people sign up, there will be 20 rounds. This is so we don't end up needing to thread out 40 conversations at once!! Also I don't want to make that many threads.

Wait... what's the Neighbors Club?
A club for making friends, but only friendless losers are allowed.

I'm in a rush since I have to go, but feel free to ask questions and give comments and suggestions!
