AU Weekend Reminder!

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Just a reminder that AU Weekend is THIS WEEKEND!

And a couple of notes:
1. YOUR CHARACTER WILL REMEMBER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THIS WEEKEND!
2. YOU WILL COMPLETELY TRANSFORM INTO THE AU CHARACTER THAT YOU CHOSE!
3. YOUR AU-PERSONA WILL NOT FREAK OUT ABOUT BEING IN FANDOM!

And because this just cropped up...

If you have a sub-plot that you are thinking of doing this weekend and haven't run it by the Admins yet? Or mentioned in the sign-up thread?

Might want to ping them via IM or E-mail to make sure it is kosher. Like ASAP.

......did I remember to mention the sub-plot with Mel and the goats?

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

Shh! That was supposed to be a surprise! CURSE YOU!

(Ran it by the admins. You're responsible for the shaving part)

But I still get to handle the whipped cream, right?

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

Just the way Shakespeare intended it.

Does AU Weekend start Friday night or Saturday morning?

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

Saturday morning when people wake up.

*Pities Radio People*

*raises hand* On the last plottery wheel post, it says the deadline for signing up is the 19th, but on the sign up post it says it is the 16th. Is it too late for a last minute AU idea?

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

As long as it doesn't involve something huge I don't think it will be bad.

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

Here's a question - will our AU people know the other AU people?

ie: Would Polexia (the AU character Marie is turning into) know whoever Willow is turning into when they wake up in the same room? I'm assuming the answer is yes since being in Fandom is not going to seem strange to them, but I wanted to double check.

[cantjossme.livejournal.com]

No. Just being in Fandom won't necessarily freak them out is all. I know it's a stretch on that but hopefully people can work with that.

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

Okay then I'm confused now.

Because if they think they belong in Fandom, won't it seem weird to them that they don't know anyone? Why do they think they're here? I was kind of assuming that Polexia would not necessarily have Marie's memories, but would have had the same experiences (minus the mutation thing).

Sorry for the confusion but think of it like Wee!Tiny weekend.

Instead of having a bunch of kids show up screaming for their mommies? We have a bunch of strangers who know something about this place but not everything about the people around them.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Say your character has a twin brother who doesn't appear in the same series . . . is that not AU-ish enough?

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Does he appear at all in the PR Canon? Then yes. That should work. If he doesn't? Then no.

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

For about three minutes in Ninja Storm, but yes!

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Can you play a character with only three minutes of canon?

[connernotconnor.livejournal.com]

Well, from three minutes of canon I know he's a rambunctious, klutzy, overly enthusiastic dork who wants to be a ninja but is honestly not cut out for it even though he got into the Wind Ninja Academy. If I managed to play a character with two episodes of canon for almost a year before getting more canon material to work with, I think I can manage three minutes of canon for a weekend. ;)

Mostly he'd just be cute and dorky at people and be a really bad ninja.

What is it with this island and ninjas?

[sound-loyalty.livejournal.com]

Ninjas are awesome.

Pirate ninjas are better.

Naruto has pirate ninjas.

Thus Naruto = better than awesome.

So, will our character's wardrobes, living space, possessions etc. transform to match the AU person they become, as well? Evie's AU is from a different time period-- will all of her possessions be of that time period for the weekend?
