Valentines Day...

[Kazuki Akimoto]

Whilst browsing around on this day, when I am sick and unwell, something dawned upon me. A fantabulous idea, an idea so genius that I may well go down in history for thinking it up...

...Okay, so I was looking at LP1 and saw Mugens take on it, got inspired. Sue me.

How's about it then folks? Valentines Day Human Raffle! Basic premise is:

• Use this thread to nominate characters (be them yourself or another, but only with permission) that you'd like to see put in the auction.
  
  
• On Valentines Day (assuming this gains enough suggestions) I'll set up a thread for it from Legion, host it as a little event. Partially to make up for not bothering with Hallowe'en or Christmas/New Years at Legion this year, partially because I like the excuse to have Taiku onstage with a microphone.
  
  
• The method of winning will be as such: I'll assign every person who clearly states "I'm interested" with two/three random, three digit, numbers(dependant on number of participants. I will then write these on paper at home and (literally) put them in a hat and draw. If you are present in the thread posted when I choose to make a draw (which could be within one post or one page, who knows? ) then you will win an expenses-paid 'date' with the person to whom your number was assigned.
  

So, anyone have any nominations or suggestions to make? Chop-chop, ya feckers.

Okay, for brevity, when you say "You're in", I'll ask that you specify whether you're 'in' as a possible 'prize' or just in for the raffle.

Again, I WILL choose my 'favourite' out the lists, be it for amusing/valid reasons or because I see the most humour in it, but I do need you all to be quite clear on this for me. The thread is only a piece of it, the rest will be done by me on paper.

Just so you all know, alright? Please be specific. Thanks.

[Valencia Donahue]

XD I'm interested. Valencia wouldn't like being paired up with random people, but since it's short term and the date is all paid for, she wouldn't mind the free food and stuff.

=P 'Cause that's how she rolls~

Well, since this character is new and all, I doubt he'd be a very fabulous 'prize'. But I surely wouldn't mind being said 'prize'.

And, if that idea doesn't sit too well, I'll just settle for being in the raffle.

[Leon Loire]

I'm gonna stay uninvolved, as Leon's still inactive, and recent... events regarding Leon's significant other have left a bad taste in my mouth, but I will say this.

I'm gonna tell the creator of Mugen's idea that she inspired us Liam, since I'm sure she'd find it very awesome. ;D

But I'll just stick to rocking the socks off the ladies at Mugen, as I pulled off a kick ass sing off of Jet's Are You Gonna Be My Girl? at the Male Auction.

But you'd make a good prize Valencia, you should go for it.

now liam if you put taiku on the block I know a certian lil lady -cough- vic -cough- who wouldnt like one last night for a few words Would be some interesting posting.

But being that Im not a student or rather that not many know that vic is in town. I might just be a spectator which is a bummer cause i know vic would look stunning in a red cocktail dress

Well, if you MUST know, I'd considered on putting Taiku up as one of the males (aiming for six 'prizes', three guys, three girls, with Taiku potentially one of them, depends on the male volunteers), so there's a teeny-weeny potential spoiler for you all.

As for being a student, it's irrelevant in this storyline. Legion is a nightclub, so non-students are quite welcome. As for Vic not being known to be present, hell, stumble across it if you want to go along. Or not, it's really up to yourself at the end of the day, but all are very welcome. ^^;

[Odin Reeves]

This seems like a pretty good idea, and the only back-firing I can see is if not enough people sign up. But I'm sure Liam would have a back-up plan....

Your gonna raffle off Legion staff members if that happens, aren't you?

[Victoria Alexander]

well in that case a little birdy told vic about the place becuase well you didnt rename it after leaving varron so shell be saving up her money from the little job shes got.

Course no doubt I would probably be over bid lol

[Pain Killer]

I nominate Ollie.

And if it comes down to it, feel free to sign up any of my characters as a raffler or a prize. This sounds like fun.

I think you mean DID rename it after leaving Varron, so nyah. T'was 'The Edge' before, now 'Legion'.

Anyway, there's no money needed. I'd considered it as an auction but felt that since the board has no actual financial setup and several members have rather extensive bank accounts, it'd be more fair to arrange it as a raffle.

EVERY person going through the door (as a PC character) will be given three tickets, no more, no less. Thus, everyone will have an equal chance to win.

[akira]

I been looking for a reason to get back to this site as of late. So count me in as a prize. If not a prize then i will be in the raffle

[Ryou Jackson]

Well, I don't really know if Ryou has garnered enough of a reputation to be a worthy "prize." I am interested, so unless someone else disagrees with me, then I'll be a prize. That is all.

[Dante Williams]

I'll enter as a prize, because who WOULDN'T want this stunning piece of man

Nah, but I guess Dante will think of it as a way to get back on his feet XP

[Alkaiser]

I think the real competition here is shaping up to be who gets chosen as a prize. And yes, I wanna see if my character is worthy enough to be one of the three prizes. If not, I might as well participate the other way.

[Aryn Valcoph]

I volunteer Aryn for a prize. She'll wrap herself in ribbons to attract attention if she has to.

And she'll most likely participate in the raffle, too, I suppose. It's her nature, after all. ^_^;

[Conner]

Yeah, I'll be the best prize of all, so sign me up.

By the way, I like it rough.

[Kazuki Akimoto]

Two or three more female volunteers and I'll get the ball rolling, guys can still nominate themselves if they choose, just gives me more choice for the thread, lulz.

Come on ladies, don't let your side down for the big heart 'n' candy day!!

[Valencia Donahue]

If all else fails, I'll volunteer NPC's like Annette (editor of the school newspaper group Tracker) to be a prize.

But if she doesn't end up as one, it wouldn't hurt for her to get some material to write about anyways.
