Housepets! Species Change Week June 2-8

Post by Champion Wallace »

We missed the normal window for Species Change Week this year so as a forum we're going to have our own SCW starting the first Sunday of June instead. All you have to do to participate is for that week change your profile picture to something of a different species than what it is now (or into something completely different). Feel free to post full art and/or a blurb for your SCW avatar here.

If you want, you could see it like that so next week you could change to someone who isn't Sailor Mercury.

Well the Sailor Scouts all have a lot of transformations in the original series so I have a lot of poses to go through. :ugeek:

i still think this is silly.

No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

I'm a Spheal! It's an Ice/Water type Pokémon from Ruby and Sapphire. As it's name implies, it's a spherical seal. It moves faster rolling than walking or swimming. The specific image I'm using is from Black and White (and Black 2 and White 2).

I am my Elite: Dangerous CMDR, who is also named Nathan Kerbonaut. He has an Elite rank in Trade and Exploration and Master rank in Combat. His main fleet consists of an Anaconda fitted for deep space exploration, a Python for mining (mostly Void Opals), and a heavily engineered Krait MkII for hunting Thargoids. He's traveled as far as Colonia and Sagittarius A*. At the moment he's docked at Maybury Enterprise surface base in the Trianguli sector before heading out for more anti-xeno activities.

Why dilute the actual tradition by doing a smaller one a month later? :/

Because it doesn't dilute the tradition as much as not doing it at all (and is wasn't supposed to be smaller).

Well it really doesn't matter now because in a few hours it will be over. I did find it nice.

And so, another species change week comes to a close. Thank you to everyone who participated. Hopefully next year we'll remember to hold it at the proper time.

Don't recall anyone doing so here this year. Usually someone does so. I was legit surprised that nothing this year.

If you did, Champ, I missed it … which is no big deal. I miss a lot these days. ;)

This is the first time I've been here that we hadn't had a Species Change Week.

Of course, I was in limbo for 2 years so that doesn't really mean anything.

Guys, be nice.

For next year, remember SCW starts the first Sunday in May, every year. Until next time!

If there was an alert then I also missed it which is unlikely because I come on the forum twice a day.

I made this thread a full week before the 2nd and I made a post when it started. What more could I've done to "alert" people this was happening?
