It's 2012, and the world is ending soon. No one has time to read my posts, nor I the time to write them. With that in mind, I bring you: Carnival - the abridged version
Philosophy of Carnival
The Philosophy of Carnival is to have fun with your friends!
Goals of the Shell
The goal of the shell is to meet cool new people and enjoy the games content in a fun, open-minded, and non-competitive environment. This is really less a goal and more just the way we do things.
If I was going to use simple and standard LS labels- I'd say we are a Social LS first > Event LS second. Sure, we do events and kill us some nasties regularly, but if you log in and greet the shell with a "any Ifrit going?", than you probably won't fit in well here and your efforts would better be spent in a LS dedicated to such things.
Scheduling
We do stuff together a lot, but it's mostly pretty random whenever there's enough people around and willing. Sunday and Wednesday night (9PM ESTish) are our current "scheduled" event nights- but no one is really obligated to be online (well I'm always around them). We always end up doing events those nights but it's usually only because there's a good chunk of members around anyways.
Who is Welcome Here
Pretty much anyone who's friendly, laid-back, and likes to have fun will find a nice home in Carnival! But bonus points given to old XI players, people with a large sense of humor, players from New Zealand, fans of PSYCH, and creative and eccentric minds (bonus points have no monetary value).
As far as levels go, I couldn't care less really. Anyone can hit 50 in a matter of weeks (days?)- I'm much more concerned with personality and overall attitude of a person when I'm filling our ranks with its quality members.
Applications
Applications are for jobs, this is no job. There's no way to get to know someone until you're talking to and adventuring with them anyways. So if you show an interest in the shell that's usually enough for me. (some exceptions apply!)
Website
http://carnival.guildwork.com/
No one's required to register on our website- but if you don't you're really missing out! Our LS has a strong sense of community and the site really helps us all stay connected, and it keeps our large LS from feeling like a large LS. Also there are plenty of other perks to participating ! so check it out sometime if ya fancy
That's it for me, thanks for your time Rabanastre. If you have any questions about the shell or just wanna say hi, don't be shy! you can bug me anytime.
