Monthly Theme #4 - BEST FRIEND

Alright, so according to our handy poll conducted months and months ago, our next theme is the Best Friend theme! Kinda like the lover theme of months past, but instead of a ~romantic~ relationship, we're working with a friendly/platonic relationship ( Read more... )

Yay new survey! I was thinking rivals for next month. :3

That was actually the one more I had come up with! I wonder why I didn't put it on the poll in the first place...

Oh, so when we get to a certain point on votes, we can decide for ourselves? Ace. :]

This should be a good theme~~...

ER. Not "decide." Bad wording. Bad.

Yes, whenever you have 8 votes/2 weeks have passed, you get to tally up the votes and stamp yourself. This way, you don't have to wait for us to wade through millions of applications to finally get to yours, and so that people don't continue voting on applications that are ready to be stamped instead of ones that really need the votes.

Cool. c:

Oh, & as for themes, i just thought of an idea: maybe a handwriting one? You would write the answers out, literally, whether on a tablet or on paper to be scanned in, & then it would be whose handwriting people thought yours could possibly be like...?

"Who are you the lovechild of" themes (both mirror and personality) are popular everywhere, and opposite themes usually do pretty well.

For Hetalia specifically, you could have "Which family or geographic group would you be a part of?" "Which mascot/quirk/I'm sure there's a better word that just escapes me at the moment would fit you?" (Shinaty-chan, Hanatamago, Canada's bear, the blob, the haircurls...) While it doesn't have anything directly to do with Hetalia characters, a theme along the lines of "Based on their personality and interests, which country would you think the applicant is from?" (I imagine a lot would be stamped as a country other than who they originally were, and there could be a question about that if needed.)

If necessary, you could separate the continents and have specific group themes. Ex. "Which European country are you most like?"

Pfft, tl;dr

Oh, thanks! This is really helpful. These are certainly some pretty unique themes we could work with.

I think for a theme we should do a "Which national anthem are you?" stamping. Some of the anthems are pretty cool, and some are just plain crazy--it'd be interesting to try and match people to one!

I suggest a cuisine theme! As in what Hetalia character do your tastes/diet match like or something. xD Like a person who eats a lot of junk food would be like America, someone who prefers gourmet would be France or Austria. You could even add a question on how much the applicant eats or how good/bad of a cook they are.
