Yep!! Do we want to work out who’s in what District now?

hmm i thought campers had to earn sponsors through activity one of getting to know them? we'll have two neutral sponsors, but the rest of the 13 will be for campers to talk to and earn trust of. let me know if you were looking for something else <3 [/quote

Sorry I got a bit confused for a minute there.
That sounds great!!

here's the draft forum - https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discuss/topic/805699/?page=1#post-8388942 (lmk if i need to add anything else)

i was thinking each sponsor could write one sentence about themselves (optimistic, sus, friendly) and we compile all those in a project. this way campers can choose who they want as sponsors and reach out to them only <3

That looks so good!! <3
And the idea sounds good as it will stop some districts form having like three sponsors and another not having any <3

andddd let's tell the campers that they need to aim to get one sponsor, and each sponsor (if getting multiple requests) can only choose to sponsor one district!

okay!! i'll just wait for mabel to confirm everything once and will then share it with the volunteers <3

also, are we going to have a currency? i genuinely don't think we need one because we already have so many activities and plans, a currency is just going to be another thing to manage + there's nothing they could buy with currency bc we have a pfp creator. we'll just give banner and signatures for free because it's nothing but changing usernames and player numbers LOL.

also, i'm thinking that we can assign player numbers to each player beforehand! this way, if any camper is active the entire session at least we have a player number to use while referring to them. i know that the pfp creator rn randomly assigns numbers, so what we can do is use a code like “if username = essayist, set player number to 144” ;D

just checked out the code and it works really well! only one thing is that for me the sprites of second and third digit of my number were hidden ^^ also, i won't be too active tomorrow because i really need to grind for my exam on wednesday. it's the only one exam i need to give a lot of time to, and i'll be more free in the others.

Ideas I think are cool -

Forum with hints from Bangsian last session -
https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discuss/topic/788692/

We could use something like this for the hints, or to keep all of the clues the camper's have discovered manageable and in one place?
It might be more manageable than a project

Weekly Goals with Non-Fi (Alana) last session -
https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/1090865561/

This is something I've noticed that seems really cool and a good way to incorporate self-care into what will likely end up being a crazy session, with our storyline and such.And also a nice way to help the campers organise what's more important/bring some order into their SWC and general life.

Role Division -
https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/1081362812

We could do something like this to help us with choosing the impostor? Like ask questions relating to being the impostor without outright asking if they'd want to be the impostor? And then we could choose from that? I have other ideas for that as well <3

Character Tracker -
https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/1084623904

We could do something like this for the rankings?

These are just a few ideas I think are really good and manageable <33
I understand that a few of them are likely very ambitious and we probably won't be able to do all of them <3
I'll likely add to this as I explore alittle more <3

I may have found something of yours I'm tempted to add to our studio xD - https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/projects/863444060

what we need to work on and clear up is how our imposter idea is going to work. we need it to be a camper because one of us or a leader would be too easy to figure out. but this is going to put a lot of burden on the camper, since they'll have to act this all out for people to guess + do proper swc + thriller activities. also, how are campers going to get to know it's them? will clues be given through each activity or is this going to be a separate activity? how will we choose which camper will be the imposter?

also, are we going to have a currency? i genuinely don't think we need one because we already have so many activities and plans, a currency is just going to be another thing to manage + there's nothing they could buy with currency bc we have a pfp creator. we'll just give banner and signatures for free because it's nothing but changing usernames and player numbers LOL.

That makes loads of sense
You probably shouldn't be in the same one though so that we can put some more inexperienced campers in there with you.
We could include the pairing's and rankings in the cabin guide/other project?!

sure! i'll like to be in district 1 and mabel can choose hers out of 2 and 4 ig <3 the rankings in the cabin guide will also work! i was thinking we could also have a thriller storyline forum where we post all activities–or do we want to share them as projects?

ack realized i never saw this sorry i dont care about this btw!! 2 preferably (2 is my lucky number aslkdjfds) but it might be too late </33 sorryy fsjdkflsd

i think i put you for district 2 anyways XD i shared the forum with all volunteers and we have bunch of interest! go check it out hehe ;D

yesss we should definitely check for camper activity! we'll ask all experienced campers while inviting them if they'll be interested in being an imposter, and after the first few days, decide and allocate the role. however, if they do become inactive anytime, we'll keep a replacement i guess. i don't think campers can do the thriller games + find the imposter activity together, so maybe we just drop find the imposter hints every now and then and compile it into a forum post–sharing that with the campers when they're supposed to figure out in the last activity?

and dw about your activity mabel, i perfectly understand and it's all okay <3 your contributions are still wonderful and i really appreciate them.

while i'll be checking in everyday and responding to posts + starting discussions for new things, i won't be as active as i was. this will just be till 24th february, and then i'll be free to spend my entire day towards swc XD

ACTIVITIES
one self care activity - still up for discussion
one writing activity - still up for discussion
one getting to know each other activity - first activity where they have to talk to sponsors
one creative activity - still up for discussion
two detective work activities - one crossword and one find the imposter (emergency meeting)

does anyone have any ideas for any of these? for a creative activity i thought campers could draw a creature they defeated in the thriller games ;D (out of their imagination lol)

alsooo livy, i was working on the trailer and somehow can't find the links to your voice recordings–mind sharing them again with me?
