I had a vague idea about doing some sort of fun activity here for Valentine's day. I'm not quite sure if it would be a contest or perhaps something resembling a much simpler Secret Santa. For all I know there may be something planned, but if not I thought it could be something fun! As it's only two weeks away and this is sort of last minute, it would probably need to be conducted soon if lots of participants were to be gained, but again it by no means needs to actually happen.
I do have some ideas however if staff (as well as members), like the suggestion. One is a contest. Submissions could either be graphics or a variety of creative writings, whether it be a post involving site characters, or completely unrelated short stories, poems, etc. The catch is, it has to involve love or romance (or perhaps large tragedy or deceit, even). The nature of the "love" is by no means limited, and can resemble whatever the participant pleases. Graphics however will be couple themed: a pair of canines within the manip. Again, other than that, you have full freedom to make it whatever you want. This doesn't even necessarily have to be romantic. Have a ship? Feel free to use it (cough sindriandthorne cough). Official rules can be decided by staff.
The other idea as I said somewhat resembles a Secret Santa type event. Essentially organizing Valentines and presenting the one you were given with gifts. Not that I think about it though, I think the above would be far easier to organize and far more time effective. If anything, for this idea in particular, perhaps an official RiA Valentine's gift exchange thread can be made and whoever feels like participating and gifting can post.
BUT YEAH. Thoughts?
