Happy 1 Year Love Meme

[gordianknots]

So in addition to two memes already up, I figure we might as well have a third celebrating the fact the game's been open for a year. We've done so much collectively, had an entire damn battle, literally changed the map, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. We may as well take a minute or two to bask in what we've done together!

awkward tree is the first game i have ever joined from the beginning of its life and stayed in. it's been such an amazing learning experience for myself to know what it is i enjoy most in a rp game and in writing -- i've never been in a game that has encouraged me, as a quieter player, to get involved and affect the world because i could. i'd been in games that were stagnant or only specific types of players/characters could affect the world, and it has been an amazing learning curve to know that i can get involved. this is due to the mod team and the playerbase who have encouraged me over the last year!

i've brought in three characters i've never played before! and to see luke grow as i get to explore the facets of a dude who is seen as a one-note villain from a first pov book to being able to get away from the honour jokes and show everyone that zuko is a pretty honourable guy to being able to try and explore the very difficult and intricate layers of katherine, it's been an incredible writing experience! honestly, i've never been this involved before -- the fact that we have a mod team that encourages everyone to get involved and to grab a piece of that pie has been such a new experience for me. i think that's pretty amazing.

the playerbase has been consistently amazing to me for the last year. i'm glad that i've stumbled upon certain people and have grown close to them -- and am growing close to a few of you now! awkward tree is a pretty friendly place, and i'm grateful to those who said "jade, jump on in!" when it came to getting involved in group metaplot activities. as someone who has lost some interest in the type of rp games i've been in for the last few years, i'm glad to say awkward tree is the one that has kept me in game rp. thank you so much to everyone who i have written with thus far! i'm so appreciative of you being a part of my character's journey and mine as a rper!

thanks for being amazing trees, guys. we've built a pretty cool forest.
