SUGGESTION: Dating Game Event?
Hello Hello Everyone !
I think it would be fun and interesting if we had an event around the idea of a dating show. I talked to a number of people about this idea and they seem to find it worth while.

It would be similar to Bachelor TV show, with a number of contestants trying to "woo" one attractive individual and both being rewarded with marriage? There are a number of ways this could be done...such as several dates overtime, blind question/answer gameshow...etc.
The GMs could provide small prizes such as obbs for participates and provide the marriage costs for the winning couple?

Pros
-encourage inter player relationships and make server population more close
-promote love, passion and warm feelings
-relatively easy to plan and apply (requires nothing outside game, just a bit of organization?)
-promote player marriage
-entertaining?
-provides alternative to grinding and murdering monsters/players all day

Cons
-requires quite a bit of organizing, participation and structure
-requires rewards or incentive from somewhere?

Just throwing the suggestion out there =o
Tell me what you think !!

RE: SUGGESTION: Dating Game Event?
that was more of a quest than an Event on V-Day (I think?)


With relationships that are started, there will come Drama from the breakups that occur afterwords.??And too much drama could have the very opposite effect of what you're trying to encourage here.

While I do agree it'd be fun to see what sort of odd matches would be made, I'm a skeptic on this.

If it were a RO trivia who wants to be a millionaire perhaps...

We might end up with too many millionaires Icon_biggrin

I guess it'd be fun tho to play and walk with 100k? XD

This sounds like a pedobear game.

You forgot another con: "you might end up with a 40 year old 380 pound fatty who likes to prey on little kids on the web" but I guess I'm just being too realistic = P Who knows, it might actually be a 40 year old chick = D

As long as no one takes it too series or at all, then it seems like a fun game.
