Let’s play a game 🙂

JOIN THE INTROVERT NATION MOVEMENT

I really love cats.
My crush likes me.
I’m introverted as fuck.
I’m gonna nap forever.

It’s raining, made tea.
It’s 50% off.
My cat had kittens.
She likes me back.

At first I thought this would be impossible and would be more easier to write a dark or angsty story, but the first thing to pop into my mind was – I saw my family

Lightening Strikes Car with Family Inside

“Went to wal-mart with my wife and two sons. They stayed in the car while
I headed in to grab some groceries because a crazy storm was happening
and my wife texts me to come back. I come back to this! My five month
old son’s head was two feet from where it hit. Absolutely terrifying.
Everyone is ok and my three year old keeps saying BOOM WINDOW! I guess
cars really can protect you.” By reddit user

I’m trying to gauge the general reading habits of people on Ao3.

It’s not limited to any specific fandom or pairing

It’s mostly what you look for when searching for a fic and what makes you stop reading once you’ve picked one then going on to what kind of feedback you give and what AUs you like or dislike.

Please give it a go it’s not overly long to fill out

And please share it so I can hit as many fandoms and readers as possible

Really interesting! I’ll be checking back to see what happens!

fascinating??? Make sure to look at the stats once you’re done, it’s so interesting! 😀

Ao3 Fanfiction Reader Analysis

rot-monster:

Just a reminder that it’s okay to block people

it’s okay to block mean people

people who stress you out

people who guilt trip you

people who you don’t want on your dash or messaging you

It’s always okay to keep people who are not good for you or kind to you out of your life.

A few weeks ago, we exhibited at Emerald City Comicon. Typically when we attend conventions, we try to create some spectacle that captures people’s attention and sells games. Like the time we brought a marching band to PAX Australia.

At ECCC, we set up a “Pay What You Want” booth and encouraged people to give us any amount of money in exchange for our games. We put games on a table, set up some signs, stood off to the side, and waited to see what would happen.

image

We brought 2000 games. Before the convention began, we took bets on what would happen:

  • Tom thought we’d sell out in a few hours.
  • Alex thought we’d run out on the of the second day of the con.
  • Trin thought that we would not run out of games because we are no longer cool or relevant.
  • Jenn got a fever and didn’t know what was happening.

We were all wrong. 

image

The doors opened, and attendees swarmed the booth. Within five minutes attendees realized they could just take games and walk away. A small group grabbed armfuls of free games and left, but most people paid something. Within an hour, the booth looked like this:

image

We ran out of games in 51 minutes.and made $8042.48, or 18.7% of the games’ retail value. In other words, we lost $685.44 per minute.

image

Attendees put lots of other stuff in the payment box too.

  • One $1 Bill folded into a bowtie ($1.00 USD)
  • One “FeelTheBurn.org” $1 bill. ($1.00 USD)
  • Two halves of a $1 bill ($1.00 USD )

Once we sold out, we had to figure out what to do with our booth space. 

On Saturday, we gave our space to artists who weren’t able to get a table at the con. People showed up to exhibit cosplay horns, board games, recycled journals, and comic art.

On the last day of the con, we set up a station for mailing letters to representatives.

We provided pens, paper, postage, envelopes, writing tips, and the address of every US Senator.

Over 200 letters were written by con attendees, including the most bad ass Imperator Furiosa cosplayer we’ve ever seen.

We’re still waiting on Immortan Trump’s response.
