Speed/Blind Dating Feb 2011 on October 31, 2015, 11:30:14 AM Speed/Blind DatingSaturday, 12th February 2011Rover's Fancy, Diagon AlleyLast IC year this was organised (not by me) and was quite fun! I'd like to propose we do it again, and I'd love you to join me with your characters. What Now?The previous concept was more of a blind date, because once signed up (and gender preferences submitted) everyone was given a pair with another character and writer to thread. This worked well in terms of keeping it simple to write, but I think speed dating is technically where people move round to have lots of short conversations in the hope of finding a match. If we can figure out a workable way of doing it then perhaps!In short, random character pairings, just the pair in conversation, any outcome and derailment you want.
