Hello Dragon Saga Friends!

 

I created this topic because some complains came up in the Halloween Loading Screen contest regarding the higher amount of creative forum events we had the last time. 

 

I want to know from everyone of you - what type of Forum Events are wanted? Focused on Halloween but also in general.

 

For Halloween I have already two suggestions of possible forum events which could be hosted as soon as we changed the cities to the Halloween theme:

  • A Crazy DS Trivia (Halloween Edition)
  • Spot the Spooky Location

More ideas are welcome, also general ideas for the future. Please keep in mind that in-game events like catch/find the GM are not possible at the moment.

 

 

Thank you!

I would like to see a forum event that isn't a contest but more of a community-cooperation thing, like the mission-map idea I PM'd you about a few days ago. :) (This has nothing do to with Halloween, but can be done any time of the year.)

 

Also, while I used to be a bit of a writer myself, I agree with you that a writing contest is not a good idea given the game's now international profile.

Yeah I read the PM even though I still didn't answer you yet (shame on me), but I will. I wanted to answer you yesterday, but then again I thought I will create the list of Monster Cards first. :)

The mission-map idea is very interesting, but has to be elaborated first. However, I keep this idea in mind.  :p_idea:

I suck with events, but Halloween is my favorite holiday in this game in general. I wish someone could satisfy my hunger with a good event.

so how about having people write short spooky stories that are told though screenshots that can then be implemented as loading screens? one sentence per loading screen. and have idunno max 7 screenshots per person for the story. that way everyone can participate :)

 

example

5_by_sigeel-d9bb1sb.jpg

6_by_sigeel-d9bb1s3.jpg

7_by_sigeel-d9bb1s0.jpg

 

i think this could be something fun for everyone. and you guys would end up with a ton of new loading screens for each area :)

short ... stories that are told through screenshots

I used to do a lot of these  :p_laugh:

Can't do them on demand, though. My inspiration level tends to rise and fall very unpredictably.  :p_smile:

Maybe the library keeper and Homurasan are related...

Darn. I have the perfect meme for that. It's not appropriate for our forum though! I'd probably give that a shot, if it were a thing. +1 for that idea.

That's why I don't talk about my family. Look, having an uncle work for a bloodthirsty vampire count...

I have to agree with Mike also. sigeel, you look like a very talented person *_*

Now that I look again, Homurasan's uncle looks just like Adam Lambert  :hmm:

 

Anyway, Crazy DS Trivia sounds great to me, but I would also like the idea Laburey21 popped up.  :no1:

Press f10 to get rid of your HUD so the screenshot is nice.

There is a bug, not literally a bug which brings unfair advantage. Press J, U, achievement, U and check it out!

I would like to suggest creating background music event (Halloween)

That's cool! But may I ask what it relates to this topic? Maybe I'm missing something o.o

 

It isn't. It's advertisement and so it's deleted now.
