First of all, I *loved* the Build a soqs. They were a lot of fun. And I think it was amazing how many free pets went out, making a lot of people happy.
I am pretty sure I know which LS Asuka was talking about it, and I hope she stuck around to read this. She (you, if you are reading this, Asuka) came in and entered one of the ones near the end, and didn't include her Gaia name, and was not counted because of that. She was informed that was why, and left. We didn't realize she had gone immediately after saying her piece and many of us tried to convince her to stay and try again. When we realized she was gone, it was asked if anyone knew her full gaia user name to pm her and invite her back, but if anyone did, I did not see that response. The room was pretty full at the time, or at least the chat was, so I may have missed that. I don't think anyone PMed her, though. I do know the colorist running the event was among the voices asking her to stay, if that is worth anything.
For the most part I loved this event. I was mildly annoyed at not being able to enter my Mer in the mixer, but the emphasis there is on mildly. The only thing I really had any sort of issue with at all was having to publicly choose one of my friends over the others. I loved the concept of giving, and the spirit clearly behind the intent. I loved the idea of gifting rather then keeping, but it really came to a head with the flaffle, where it was like having to make a public statement "this is the friend I choose". It was bad enough if you won a soq to do that, but the odds of that were so low, that the odds of hurting some one's feelings were likewise low. I think a big part of what makes communities like this one great is that we are a community. It seems to be rare the person here, if such a person exists, who only likes one other person in the shop. If I won a Soq to give away, I could have used factors like if it was a color one of my friends liked above the others, or even one they hated so not them, if some one had had a particularly bad day, or had recently really brightened mine. Whatever method I would use, however, would be private and between my friends and myself. In the flaffle, having to post the names before you won anything was not only (to my mind anyway) a public statement of choice of one friend over others, but also would disappoint whoever you DID choose if your entry was not rolled. That could lead to hurt feelings.
Other from that, however, I loved the event. Once again, I loved the BAS, especially the LS ones. I had a lot of fun with the game element, and seeing what we all created. I really hope I get to participate in more events in the future. Some one else said earlier that they got to talk to people and make friends in the chats, and I felt that way too. The thread, even with no event going on, moves way too fast for me to keep up a conversation, most of the time. the chats however, were all right then and there and we had these huge group conversations. It was amazing.
Thank you to the staff, for all your hard work, and thank you to everyone I got to chat with in the LS. It was a blast! Thank you, again.
And congrats, all winners!!!!!!
