International Mish Mash Month (IMMM 2023)

[StrangerCoug]

Granted. You are slain by medieval knights.

I wish to have my own house.

[xofelf]

Granted. But your house is one of those weird ones with stilts supporting it on the edge of a cliff. And on the day you move in there's a terrible rockslide and your house goes over the cliff with all your stuff.

I wish I wasn't so tired.

[Pink Ball]

Granted, but you can never sleep again.

I wish I could play the piano.

[StrangerCoug]

Granted. Your playing ability sounds horrible.

I wish to become a world-famous graphic novelist.

[Ariel]

Granted, but you're famous for being a crime victim, not for your novel.

: Hive Mind Day

El Salvador

Another cool approach to gaming together in Mish Mash is one of collective decision-making. The "MS Plays" trend is a great example of this. Your input is needed for Farren with Stardew Valley and Korina with Slay the Spire. Check those out today! If you're also in need of the "MS Plays" hive mind for your gaming needs, feel free to put up a thread of your own!

[Farren]

With Stardew Valley, we're aiming to get through one in-game day every 3-4 real-time days - keeping the game's seasons synched up with the northern hemisphere's seasons. Anyone who wants to help us decide how to grow the farm is welcome to chime in!

: Back in my Day...

Japan

Have you been in this community for a while? Share a story from the 'way things used to be'. Been around since before we had a whole queue and subforum for LSGs? Share a story from the way things used to be.

Today is a day for reminiscing on absent friends, games you wish would finally get a sequel, or unforgettable moments.

[Thestatusquo]

Back in my day we all hung out on skype and we liked it.

[DeasVail]

Back in my day…

[Cephrir]

Back in my day, I saw many of the big names on this site come and go, though I wasn't noteworthy myself outside of LSGs.

[Save The Dragons]

Back in my day newbie games were 5 pages long

[StrangerCoug]

Back in my day, 1.) I actually played Mafia, 2.) there was a bit more mod freedom in normal games, 3.) I was a notorious bastard mod.

[mallowgeno]

Back in my day...

I used to enjoy the Red Coyote games <3

[Ariel]

Back in my day I played a mole game and I would love to again someday

: Tasking for Forgiveness Day

Peru

Today, we have a Task for you, which is basically synonymous to an activity where you will be judged by the exalted one on a scale of 1 to 5. Our Taskmaster today is xofelf. Feel free to pander if you think it'll get you more points!

Write an apology of 100 words or less. Most insincere apology wins. You have until Thrill of the Hunt Day starts. Your time starts now.

[Silverclaw]

I'm sorry that no one else cares enough about you to post an apology by now. Like what the hell everyone? Do any of you care about xof? I can't believe it.

[xofelf]

If you're wondering if there will be any clarifications or explanations on the task, may I remind you: all the information is on the task.

[Ethel]

I'm sorry that I'm so good at apologizing that I'm making other people feel self conscious about their own apologies.

[Pink Ball]

I’m sorry, I guess?

[mallowgeno]

Oh darling,

I'm sorry you're so easily offended by my fabulousness. I know it can be hard to handle such a strong and confident human, but I really didn't mean to hurt your delicate sensibilities. Perhaps next time you should toughen up a bit and learn to appreciate a little bit of sass and class. But in the meantime, I'll throw you a bone and apologize for making you feel inferior. It's not my fault that you can't handle the heat, but I'll try to tone it down a notch for your fragile ego.

Best,
Mallow

[StrangerCoug]

I'm sorry for being a selfish person that doesn't give a rat's butt about the task at all.

[Thestatusquo]

I'm sorry to everyone on this site who i hurt during my long process of self growth. I'm sorry you had to put up with the growing pains of someone who still had much to learn. I'm thankful every day that many of those same people were strong enough to give me a second chance and i am incredibly humbled and grateful to be part of this community.

[Save The Dragons]
