[Day 324] Turn-in
Turn in form:
IC section:
Did you enjoy yourselves? Are you happy with how this game turned out? (This is an IC question, so characters are free to answer however they like.)
OOC section:
What did you give: (List out what you gave and to who + what team, with thread links if applicable.)
What did you keep: (If you took or asked for anything from the Tree and kept it for yourself, what was it and how much?)
Did you meet anyone new: (List anyone new you met here, but only if you met the requirements of goal 2 when meeting them.)
Sample OOC turn in:
What did you give:
6 apples to Turquoise
1 apple pie to Emerald (from team)
2 leaves to Jim on Kunzite
3 sticks and 1 anecdote to Bob on Sapphire
1 gift box with a cute bow to my teammate Amy
What did you keep:
1 apple
Did you meet anyone new:
Bob on Sapphire
***As was noted in the instructions, the surveys are individual. So if your team gave anything as a whole, please only have the character who delivered the gift put it on their survey with a note that it was from the team- it will still be counted the same, this is just to avoid double turn-ins.

(frozen comment) Re: SAPPHIRE
My teammates already expressed their opinions on this matter and I don't feel that they are necessarily in the wrong. However, I personally felt that your gesture for this game was meant to inspire kindness. In the interest of respecting your intentions and your own kindness, I decided to use the game as an opportunity to gift a few friends and I thank you for offering me the means to easily do so.
As for how happy I am with the game...I admit I'm surprised that we've been targeted with so much relentless kindness. I'm sure a few were primarily interested in winning the game, but I am pleased to see that most have simply used it as a way to enjoy themselves, make others happy and also make a few new friends in the meantime.
What did you give:
❀ Apples, apple blossoms and star-pattern hair ribbons to Jasper
❀ Sheet music for Carnelian
❀ Mystery cabbage for Turquoise...
❀ Apples, apple blossoms, sheet music and a few toy blocks for Kunzite
What did you keep:
From the other teams, I would like to keep the gifts offered to us, especially those specifically designed with Sapphire in mind. I enjoy receiving presents from friends and I imagine they'd also be unhappy if I turned around and gave it away.
As for you, you've already helped me with my injuries after the last battle and your presence is a comfort. You've also been an excellent help in this game. I don't feel that I would need to ask you for more than what you've already freely offered, and so I have kept nothing for myself.
Did you meet anyone new:
I did meet Thunder as part of a discussion on what to give him, but I'm afraid he beat me to the punch in terms of giving and my teammates also managed to offer him friendship first. In terms of offering a meaningful gift, I 'lost' the race. However, I was able to offer his team cabbage and I'm trusting Hail to prepare it properly for them, which makes it a gift that will give itself twice over.
