How's My Driving?
[PROCEED]

IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE! HMD, HMD! HOW'S MY DRIVING? PRETTY GOOD, RIGHT? AREN'T YOU THANKFUL?! GOBBLE IT UP, POLYCHROMATIDS~!!

Welcome back to our more seasoned members, and welcome to you first-timers.

HMD is the gamewide chance for feedback on playing here in

polychromatic.

And here's our philosophy on HMD: praise--it's all well and good (we all love it, yeah?), so if you want to give praise, love, ♥s, whatever, go for it! It's especially great to say what you ♥ so much about a character. For example, how they acted during X curse or Y plot was great, or how they adjusted (or didn't?) to the City was fascinating. But we all know, constructive crit is best when you're looking for advice on how to improve. What we really encourage here are questions. It gives you the chance to maybe understand something, (and maybe you think it makes sense after all now), and the player a chance to explain. For example:

"How did Gary get from Point A in canon to Point B in Poly? It didn't quite make sense to me."

"What started this whole fascination of Sue's with the bananas?"

And then you find out that there's a long, involved story that goes back six months involving the aftermath of a curse, a lizard, a pound of potatoes, a watermelon, three French maids, and a pogo stick. And then it all makes perfect sense.

Or perhaps it doesn't, but you've started a dialogue about the things you perceive versus the things the player perceives.

As decided by community vote, anon is not allowed here on the main HMD post, and IP logging is on. Sorry, Anon. However, we encourage posting a link to your own, personal, anon-enabled crit thread(s) if allowing anon is something you want to do and are comfortable with. But keep in mind that we moderators can't police those crit threads: not only are they anon, but they are on your own journals, and there are dozens of them. But we entreat members of this game to be polite and courteous, logged in or not. We will be watching the main post for any unrest, however, so keep that in mind. (We like to watch.) Let's all keep ourselves like civilized people, and have a decent time. Remember, no road rage in HMD.

To keep things organized, please post your comment in the following format*:

The general disclaimer, as usual, applies:

By choosing to post here on HMD, you may receive comments you don't necessarily enjoy. By posting here, you accept that this could happen, and you're basically okay with it. We will be monitoring this post for abuse and will shut down any instances of abuse we see. However, constructive crit, comments, or questions you just don't like do not count as abuse.

Whew. Now that that's all out of the way, have at it,

polychromatic!

*Please remember our requests regarding sparkles, images, embedded media, and other bits of coding. A little variation on the comment form is fine and tasty, and putting things like gifs or videos behind links or in collapsed threads is fine too, but please consider the loading time for others with slower connections. And take it easy on the placeholders: HMD isn't going anywhere.

And because it's apparently traditional for HMD posts to go up in the middle of the damn night, here we are. =_=v

Sob totally useless but I love Alice. ;___; she's sweet and adorable and she make Blue's day so much better. I love that she takes his joking with her at face value, that is so reminiscent of the book.

And oh my god I love your Edmund. I can't get enough of him just taking almost everything in stride. I really like his relationship with Lucy, and I really would love to play with that more in the future. I'm so happy you picked him up.

&hearts, okay?

I'm glad you like her ;; That was one of the reasons I wanted to pick her up: to have someone relatively friendly and likable around. Since you do know the book, do please poke me if I start getting weird with her. I've worried lately that I've made her too sweet-and-sparkly and too okay with all the wtfery around her when one of the words that's always repeated in the book is "use"--she wants to be of use, something is useful, there's a use, there's no use. (It's odd when you start noticing it.) I wonder, sometimes, if she wouldn't be more "omg, stupid place!" than I'm playing her. I'm going to reread, I think, and see if maybe I've made her reactions to the Wonderland-like City a little too "oh wow~!!" and not enough "oh stupid." I mean, she's obviously the sensible one surrounded by all these crazy people singing songs wrong and talking about lobsters at inappropriate times, which is some of why she takes Blue's joking as it is, as face-value /ramble, ramble The point! I absolutely love her interactions with Blue ;; He's absolutely her Blue Knight now. I love how he's sort of adopted her and is absolutely spoiling her (it's terrible and adorable). I hope we can play them off each other for a long time to come :3

asdlkfjskaldf I'm glad you like him ;; I still feel like I'm getting settled in his characterization, his voice, and the rest of the Narnia crew. There's so much in-game development I've had to catch up on. You guys are amazing! So, since I'm still feeling newish, please don't hesitate to stop me if I get weird, okay? I'm glad I can play a decent Ed for the rest of the Narnia crew. It's actually a lot of fun to play a character like him: a lot of thoughts, not a lot of words. And, really, you get bounced around between worlds enough, you start taking things in stride |D Anyway, you can't have just three Pevensies, especially not at Christmastime, so I'm glad I picked him up too. I would love lovelovelove to play Ed&Lu more and often :3 I love their interactions. The younger two have to stick together~

♥ right back, okay?
