EVENT → CRAZY CONFECTIONS

EYYY MACARON-UH

Let's have some results, shall we?
➜ Firstly, because of the number of sign ups and available macarons, the numbers for the event unlocks have been adjusted! By my estimate, 732 macarons were available to be handed out and given proof for. So here's the modified unlock list:
➜ For 50 macarons given away, x event will happen.
➜ For 100 macarons given away, x thing will happen.
➜ For 250 macarons given away, x thing will happen.
➜ For 500 macarons given away, x thing will happen.

And without further ado, the number of macarons with posted proof are.....397! So three different things will happen! They will be as follows:
➜ For 50 macarons given away, the ability to negate one macaron effect is unlocked.
➜ For 100 macarons given away, a Landlord house exploration event will happen during the summer.
➜ For 250 macarons given away, we will have another 4th wall event. And soon!

Anyway, let's get to the macarons:
Pink - Cosmetic alteration! The eating of this macaron will now bring upon a certain cosmetic alteration. This could be skin colour, hair colour, height, weight. Basically a body morph. Maybe you even have a toucan nose. Who knows!!! This does not include physical sex swapping.

Green - Ability removal or gain! If you have an ability or more than one ability regained, one will vanish. For those normies who don't have any abilities (or those who haven't been able to regain their abilities), an ability will be given to them in the form of elemental manipulation. So pick an element and they have the power to control it now.

Yellow - Hallucinogen/Intoxication/Influence! This special macaron can alter the characters actions in multiple ways, giving them a high or intoxicated air to them. If they see things, the things they see can be silly or scary, they can be angry or loopy, but they're definitely in an altered state. Basically, how your character would act under the influence is how they'd act with this macaron.

Brown - Animal transformation! This can be a random transformation and back (animal > person > animal) or a transformation that keeps the character as an animal, but they have the ability to transform into one now! It isn't a controllable ability and the animal is up to you.

Purple - Nothing! The purple's were dud macarons.

Blue - Sensory loss! Pick a sense and bloop, it's gone.

➜ Now here is another little snag with the macarons: if you eat two of the same colour, they cancel each other out. So for instance, if you eat four pink macarons, then there won't be a power effect. Eating five, however, will result in a power. So an even number of a colour: no power. Odd number: power.

➜ When it comes to the powers interacting with each other, they will. How they will though can be as creatively planned as you'd like. Maybe you'll turn into a pink bear who can't smell. Or maybe one day you'll be pink, one day you'll be a bear, and one day you can't smell. Or a combination of those two scenarios.

➜ Because the 50 macaron task was unlocked, you have the ability to nullify the effect of one macaron. So if your character got the yellow macaron, then you can say NOPE and that one effect is gone. But if they also ate the pink macaron, that must still be used as an effect.

➜ The effects of the macarons will start at midnight tonight (aka April 1st) and last through out the week (so until 11:59 PM on the 7th).

➜ Questions can be asked on the post!

Question concerning the brown macaron! If a character is turned into an animal, do they have any ability to speak or communicate like a regular human (can they read, write, text, etc)?

uhuhu, excellent choice. 8) Thank you!

Another question about the brown macaron! Are the transformations restricted to normal animals, or would it possible for the character to turn into a Pokemon, or something of the sorts?
idealisticking: (smiling)

Alright, thank you!!

Question!! Say you received two pink macarons- can you nullify the effect of one so that they don't cancel each other out?
redstray: (oh really?)

[personal profile] redstray 2014-03-31 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
A question about the yellow macaroon, will the person be in a constant state under the influence, or can it change at random like the brown macaroon?

okie dokie thank you kindly

A few questions!

- If macarons were given before April 1st but not submitted to proofs due to time constraints, will effects still happen regardless?
- Also, can such threads of the giving of macarons be backdated so they happen before April 1st?
jipangu: (pleased)

[personal profile] jipangu 2014-03-31 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
All right, thank you!

[personal profile] thirdbeauty 2014-03-31 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, this question's about the pink macaron! Is it limited to just one thing, or can it be multiple alterations at once? (Like, skin and hair color, or hair color and height, or skin color and pointed elf ears?)

Also, as I wrote this up, I realized physical/apparent age isn't mentioned at all, so would that be an option as well?
thirdbeauty: (Perky)

[personal profile] thirdbeauty 2014-03-31 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, that clears it up perfectly! Thanks!

For the animal transformation, does it have to be a full animal transformation? Or can it be something like this, where a character has the ears/tails/other animal traits? Or can characters switch between animal/slightly animalistic looking human/human?

[personal profile] phantasmata 2014-03-31 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Gotcha. Thanks for letting me know!
reborn_fang: (surprise || you don't say...)

[personal profile] reborn_fang 2014-03-31 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
So, if someone receives a macaron but never ate it, will it still affect them? (Since Hiroki kind of took the one Yoshitake gave her and put it into the sink blender thing...)

[personal profile] pollenstalks 2014-03-31 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Is it all right if the ability to negate one macaroon isn't used? Because Akiyoshi got one dud and one brown macaroon so I'd feel sad having the latter not be used.
jipangu: (confused)

[personal profile] jipangu 2014-04-01 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
ah, one more question, sorry! Do the pink macarons' body morphing include hair length (i.e. it growing longer or etc.)?
jipangu: (grin)

[personal profile] jipangu 2014-04-01 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
Good to hear, thanks!
sod: (( sparkles ))

[personal profile] sod 2014-04-01 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Don't judge me for this question but re: the animal transformation one, when they change back are they still clothed...?

[personal profile] sod 2014-04-01 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Strips then

[personal profile] pollenstalks 2014-04-01 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oh thank you! It might be a good idea to update the post about that in case there are others with the same situation.
velveteenlender: (See the truth is...er...)

[personal profile] velveteenlender 2014-04-03 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
When it comes to the pink, would something as 'vague' as 'rabbit face' be acceptable?

Also for animal transformation, since uncontrollable swapping between forms is there...would sneezing count? (Sneeze, animal, sneeze, human again, and so on so on?)
