Cameo contest

[Waker]

I'm stuck in traffic, so you got to put up with my horrible ideas. How about whenever youse need a walk on role in a strip you give some of us forum goers a chance to make an appearance? The idea is simple, just tell us what the extra needs to do and we put in our request. Ie victims of Hex's hex, Charby or another vamp feeding, or just some background. Anyways, traffic is moving again so I'm off!

Ok, now that I'm on a real computer I will expand my statement a bit. From what I've noticed this forum doesn't exactly have the most robust memberlist. The number of active members seems limited to between one and two dozen people, so Amelius wouldn't have an exceptionally large number of people to choose from. As I said, she just puts out a request for extras and those interested step up. We could either come in as a human or demonic avatar depending on the situation. Of course for that to work, members need to either have a detailed description of the character or a picture to work with (and both wouldn't hurt.)

Here's an example!
Amelius- "All right, I'm gonna have Mye visiting the magic store and I need two background characters, one of which will be talking to the store owner while the other is looking at the shelves. Demons"
Forum Member 1- "My avatar has long, black hair.....

Yeah, as I said, the reason I suggest this is so forum members get their brief time in the spotlight, plus Amelius has more subjects to work with rather than making up everything herself.

Hmm...now that you mention that, and explain it like that...that sounds good. Personally, I understand. I have a hard time designing a lot of people and to me, it just looks lazy to just have stick figures or shadows in the background to stand in for people. (Other people may not mind that, but that's my opinion.) It's so much easier to just draw someone whose design is already made up, or that you don't have to make up all the details for yourself. This can potentially take at least a little bit of a burden off our dear Amelius.

Plus...<.< I won't deny that I'd just about kill to get my fifteen seconds of fame in a CTV comic, even if only in the background as a completely unimportant person in one frame.

Well, at least someone replied to this dealie. AS for the "contest" part I imagine that Amelius could either have a trivia contest or perhaps a random lottery. Maybe even something like "best description". I dunno, it's up to de boss lady.

I think this is a good idea, perhaps we could even make our own side stories to be incorporated into CTV.
Amy could aways just pick and choose on her own (lol she wouldn't leave any one out because she's awesome like that you know it)

[Amelius]

Ooo, well I'll keep this in mind for the future! I'm not sure I could do this right away, but there may be another chance for a round of cameos in the future, and I'll definitely consider this ^_^

What the...? Amelius actually found this thread? I'm both shocked and amazed.
But that's good to hear, I have possibly indirectly influenced the comic in a subtle fashion and given members a moment to shine.

As long as one FEELS like they have influenced the matter in question, well...then it's all the better.

There you go, a philosophy from Shiori.
