Question: What the fuck is this? (I'll fix this, shhhh)
Answer: SYNTHNOVA is meant to bridge the gap between a traditional game and more casual settings like![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
bakerstreet, dear_player, sixwordstories, and other meme and dressing room communities. Here you'll find no commitments, no applications, and no burdensome activity checks – just a straightforward set of community rules. It's an entirely player-driven playground where events and themes are suggested and can be voted on by the player base.
Our plots range from the mundane, like a "live" performance by a band from a beloved fandom, to the exotic, where special drinks come with fun and even spicy side-effects, or even veer into outright chaos, with a hoard of zombies taking over the dance floor.
In SYNTHNOVA, time flows in real-time on a 1:1 ratio, but players are free to come and go at their leisure, interacting with posts as they see fit. The community provides a set of prompts and a setting, but the rest is up to you.
Events happens every Friday, stylized as a weekly club newsletter that highlights club happenings and introduces themes and prompts that players can choose to engage with or opt-out of entirely through their own top-level comments. We also encourage player-run events, enabling you to inject your character's canons and personal plotlines into the mix, and offer a "missed connections" post every Monday, perfect for general texting, sexting, and those unforgettable texts from last night.
