kaisou | [GAME START] Welcome to Libra!

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Network
WHEN: January 7th
WHAT: Welcome to Libra!
WARNINGS: None

[Wherever you are, your phone will start to ring and vibrate. It doesn’t matter if your phone was off or on mute - it will ring anyway. If you didn’t have a phone? You’ll have found one that has been delivered to your current location with a sticky note attached with your name on it.

The ringing will continue until you check your phone. The entire screen has been locked to a new app that downloaded: Libra. It looks like a social media app, even though you’ve never heard of it before. Worst yet, there seems to be no closing this app until you read and respond to the message displayed]

Welcome to Libra! Libra is an innovative app developed by the good folks at Zodiac™ to connect people with similarities that set them apart from the average crowd!

There’s a lot to talk about, but we don’t want to pile too much on you! Instead, let's start things off with a little icebreaker! It’s a little late, but we hope it's still relevant!

This post is sponsored by the 2021 Kaisou Winter Carnival! Get out and enjoy the cold!

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone.

Mod Note: The game has officially begun! The first event log will take place on January 9th, but players are free to make their own logs and posts! There will be no NPC response in this network post, so feel free to interact with each other!]

It's possible

We should probably be on the lookout for any nasty surprises in the next few days

Like our phones bricking? (┬┬﹏┬┬)

Yeah...

Ugh, if that happens my parents are going to kill me, I JUST got this phone

Me too. I don't want to even think about how my dad would react.

[A pause]

It gets worse. I can't find an uninstall option.

[And now that Jun mentions it, he's gonna take a look and--

Ah.]

Oh this is going to suck

Something like that, yeah. ≡(▔﹏▔)≡

Have you ever heard of Zodiac before?

No, this is my first time ever hearing about these people

I see.

[So time to dance around the topic then]

I've seen the name thrown around on sites that talk about supernatural and conspiracy theories. Some secret organization like the illuminati, apparently.

... Charming.

[Just the sort of welcome he wanted into town!]

I thought it was just small towns that were supposed to have the really weird crap going on
