in April 20th, 2009 @ 20:37I’m sort of a neophyte. Why do we have to E-mail the GAPAs our dresses?

Rainbowstar and Serendipity (o.o)
in April 20th, 2009 @ 21:41Ideas we have so far:
– Colorful theme
– Vegetarian menu
– Wungs, guinea pigs, or gerbils taking our coats
– Guinea pigs to eat? (Please, no.)
– Ice sculptures that melt away to reveal flower sculptures
– Colored/lit fountains (with drinkable fruit juice?)
– Maze of rose hedges
– Easter egg hunt? (Might be hard to pull off.)
– Puffin Puffs (I have no idea what they are, but they’ve been suggested.)
– Wedding between MissSwann and Red-Tailed Hawk? (Apparently it’s forbidden by law, but maybe in a alternate universe it could work.)
– Sherbert
– FruitThat’s all the ideas that support has been expressed for. The ones ending in question marks have been argued against.

in April 20th, 2009 @ 21:51My observations/complaints/additions, not to you specifically (well, not all of them):
1. I still don’t get the idea of something taking our coats. I find it unnecessary.
2. What’s wrong with eating guinea pigs?
3. Why ice? It’s supposed to be spring.
4. Yeah, not liking any sort of “hunt” either.
5. Puffin puffs haven’t been suggested; they’re just a fact of any MuseBlog ball. I’ve already begun preparations for them.
6. Sherbet, not sherbert.
7. Several people are wearing non-Western garb, e.g. kimonos, tunics, or togas.
8. Formality is required, as at each MDB.

Rainbowstar and Serendipity (o.o)
in April 20th, 2009 @ 22:30I think the idea of the ice sculptures is that they have more permanent (wood? metal? plastic?) sculptures of flowers inside them, so they melt to reveal the flowers.
I don’t know what’s actually wrong with eating guinea pigs (after all, we eat chickens, pigs, and cows), it’s just something I’d prefer not to do.
I don’t really get the coat-taking thing either, but it’s been supported by numerous MBers.
Tunic? Perhaps I should wear a tunic. *goes on epic quest to find tunic*

in April 24th, 2009 @ 10:52Vegetarian menu sounds good to me.
And I don’t get the coat thing either… why can’t we just hang up our coats in the cloakroom?

in April 24th, 2009 @ 11:03At formal events (and some not so formal) a cloakroom attendant is expected to do that for you. Guinea pigs would seem a trifle too petite for the job, however. And guinea pigs tall enough to handle cloakroom duties…no offense to anyone, but I really don’t want to meet them.

Rebecca Lasley (Administrator)
in April 24th, 2009 @ 17:26I’m confused. I don’t recall opining in one direction or the other on the edibility of guinea pigs. I mentioned only that I didn’t particularly want to encounter one that was big enough to carry around a human-sized coat.

in April 27th, 2009 @ 20:20No, I don’t think so. I’ve trained the wungs to not obey anyone except Master Baker and me, so singlehandedly making all that food would be impossible. Mwahahahaha…

in April 27th, 2009 @ 20:38I should hope so, considering I built this tea room, pixel by pixel, with my own two hands. Not to mention all the tea I drank and scones I ate in the name of thorough, painstaking research. Or all the blood, sweat, and tears I put into its creation. Okay, so no actual blood. And only metaphorical sweat. And there was laughter among the tears. But still…

in April 21st, 2009 @ 05:12Oh! Idea for the easter egg hunt:
The GAPAs could put little, random easter eggs around the ‘Blog. They would be brightly colored, and if you click them, music plays, confetti sparkles, or koko comes and piesyousomeone.

Rebecca Lasley (Administrator)
in April 23rd, 2009 @ 18:17That would be a big “no.” This is a virtual ball. All the clothes are comfortable and flattering and you will all look amazing. Use some imagination. You can wear a sweater vest and khakis 364 other days of the year, if you like. The whole point of a ball is that it is another world, a dream, an exercise of wonderment. Not “come as you are.” <GAPA_paroxysm>
Formal means, at a minimum, dinner jackets (a.k.a. tuxedos) and floor-length gowns.

in April 23rd, 2009 @ 19:13That’s because it includes replies in its total number, but since they are subsets of the initial post numbers, the number of new initial posts is much lower. Did that make sense?

So Its brown, like a kimono, but a little more fitted in the upper arms. It has a green belt in that pointy western style and lots of brown feathers coming out of the slit below the belt.

in April 24th, 2009 @ 11:114- AHHHH! You don’t know what Puffin Puffs are!? Well, I have some explaining to do. Puffin Puffs are a rare delicacy (baked and puffed by the Wungs) that we have every Ball. They’re quite delicious, really. (Granted it takes some time to chew.) Before eating, most people rip the beak and the feet off (I dip them in guacamole separately) although IBCF has been known to eat them whole, in one bite. Where is he? I haven’t seen him in ages. So, the boatload of hors’ devours that should be arriving soon…who will be there to eat it in three gulps? I guess I’ll do it.

Right, yeah.3.1.1.1- You’re wearing a toga? That could be interesting, but rather hard to dance in….
25- I like the darker blue one.
33- Yup. In all ways. XD But some people like them. And we have to have them, otherwise it wouldn’t be the MDB.
I don’t really know what I’m wearing…. Something blue and satiny, possibly strapless. I am unable to visualize it in more detail than that, however, so I guess just imagine it however you like.

By the way, Rebecca, when you post it, would it be possible to fix the color? It’s supposed to be cherry blossom pink, not… whatever that weird color is that the scanner gave it. And the ribbon flowers are purple.

in April 24th, 2009 @ 20:47So when’s this ball going to be? Is it going all through May or just for a few days?

And I defintely do not want to eat puffins.

in April 25th, 2009 @ 09:02No. The May Day Ball is just a dance we put on each year on May Day, or May 1st, which continues for a month or so since MuseBlog runs more slowly than real life. If you want to stop by and see what it’s like, you may, or you can ignore it. There’ll be virtual food, music, and dancing, and real socializing, and very real fun. Welcome to MuseBlog, by the way. Don’t worry about not getting Muse. There are a number of people here who don’t, and they get along just fine, although you may miss out on some inside references.

in April 25th, 2009 @ 12:00Thanks! I like dancing, so I might come. So, whats on the menu? I’m allergic to milk, eggs, peanuts, beef, and orange JUICE (but I can eat oranges themselves in moderate amounts without getting sick), so I would like to know what will be on the table beforehand, because if I need to bring my own food, I would like to be aware of it. Again, thanks for explaining!
PS. I like your name, Piggy!

in April 25th, 2009 @ 19:26Thanks. Yours is neat too, though rather death-related. Oh, don’t worry about the food–there’ll be more food on the buffet than could be listed on MuseBlog, thanks to the unusual physics of the Oasis.

Rainbowstar and Serendipity (o.o)
in April 25th, 2009 @ 19:58How is “fireandhemlock1996” death-related?
Your name reminds me of Lord Of The Flies, which I once read the first few pages of before getting bored and forgetting about it. There was someone who everyone called Piggy, but he hated it.
As for allergies, perhaps we can make some sort of genetically modified food that no one’s allergic to. Since it’s all virtual, we could plausibly do that.

in April 25th, 2009 @ 20:10Yes, there was a discussion regarding my name in relation to that character’s on an old Muser parody that never took off: Lord of the Pies. As for fireandhelock1996 being death-related, hemlock is a plant that Socrates used to carry out his execution, and fire, well, I’ll let you figure that one out. You’re smart. And in 1996, I’m sure at least a few people died, but that’s beside the point.

in April 25th, 2009 @ 20:14Given that a “few” people die every day, I think that, yes, it’s safe to assume that a few people died in 1996.

fireandhemlock1996
in April 25th, 2009 @ 20:43Excuse Moi? I was not thinking of death at all, quite the contrary! It’s a reference to my favourite book, “Fire and Hemlock”, and, as I was born in the November of 1996, it’s just a reference so people can see how old I am. But death? Nono. Not at all, Piggy! And, don’t worry about food, I can bring my own food.

in April 25th, 2009 @ 11:32We can only post JPG, GIF, and PNG files on the blog, everything else has to be converted. Not a big deal; it’s just extra steps. We do a fair amount of converting, resizing, compensating for bad scans, and the like.

It seems a lot of people are getting their dresses from the same site. I just went there and found my last year’s gown. This year I will go for something more interesting though. I’m deciding between the many choices I have found. Maybe if I were good enough at photoshop, I’d make something with all of them. Should I go for puufy skirts or not? I’ve found this really gorgeous puffy thing, but I don’t know…whatever, I’ll think about it. I still have a few days to think about it.

50- YES. DEFINITELY.
Oh well, whatever. I don’t know if I’m allowed to ask this under the blog rules, but what should I Google to find a good dress-pic site, if I do decide to be brave and look?

The May Day Ball has already started. Not surprisingly, it began on May 1st, or May Day. I see that you know this already, since you have posted there, equally obnoxiously. Please do NOT post multiple times. Just because you can reply to posts, it doesn’t mean that it’s not EXTREMELY annoying when someone posts four times in a row on the same thread, especially when they have a ridiculously long, misspelled if I might add, name. “Catkopelli The Great(43 MBETW Points+wungs (*-*),(-_-),(o-_-o),(^-^),(O-O),(p-q)+57 PotterPoints.)+Hermionie’s Biggest fan?” First, what, exactly, is a MBETW point? Second, you really don’t need SIX wungs. Plus, several of them already have owners. And you really can’t be Hermione‘s biggest fan if you can’t even spell her name right. Are you a neophyte? I didn’t think you were.
The PoPoPo fines you 30 choklit bars and confiscates anything in your name that is in parentheses. I would suggest you become simply “Catkopelli the Great,” or even “Catkopelli.”
Sorry if this is a bit harsh, it was just getting REALLY annoying.

in May 31st, 2009 @ 11:15Catkopelli, I hope you meant to make a friendly gesture, but in context, your words comes across as disrespectful.
Playfulness is one thing, and we welcome it. It is quite another matter when someone repeatedly posts comments that are disruptive and contrary to the spirit of the threads they are intended for.
In the long run, you will enjoy MuseBlog more if you reply or comment appropriately. Other MBers will be more friendly toward you and more likely to reply to your comments.

PLEASE take all the parentheses out of your name. We see that you have points. We don’t care. And p-q, o.o, and, I believe, ^-^… possibly -_-… already have owners. Take the wungs away. YOU are the one who is not treating them ethically.
I know you’re really excited to be on MB and all, but you don’t have to post SO much, or SO pointlessly, or with SUCH a long name.
And you haven’t given me the fine.
You also don’t appear to have actually read my post.
