[attr="class","anncontent"]Hello, Fate!
As of this month, Threads of Fate is now 10 YEARS OLD! We've survived name changes, a site overhaul, hiatuses, and more. Not many sites last one year, let alone ten, and it is all thanks to you. Without all of its members, Fate would not be what it is today, so we're going to celebrate Fate's 10-year anniversary by celebrating its members. From Monday 08/29 until Friday 09/02 we will be giving away prizes to all of our members! Please make sure to check Fate each day this week to collect your prize!
Today will be a little different! Earlier, Fab announced our Greenleaf 9 OTS winners - congratulations to all of you! Our welcome table has been updated as well, so feast your eyes!
But that's not all!
As you may know, we haven't held OTS nominations for a long time after Fate went on a hiatus for a little while there and staff have been working on overhauling the site with the site-wide plot and the new Clans! Because of that, there's been many missed opportunities for so many of our wonderful members to be Member of the Season.
So, I would like to retroactively announce the Members of the Season for these past missed seasons! Initially I wanted to randomly select members, but after thinking more I felt that might be unfair to members who were especially active during certain seasons. I added all members to a pool for each season who was active on Fate during the IRL time the season occurred. I then selected a member from each pool based on how active they were during that season - so if you made many RP posts on the site during a season, you were more likely to be selected! I feel that this is the closest I could get to realistically modeling the actual members that may have been chosen for MOTS during these seasons, so here is my message to each of our winners: Congratulations, you wholeheartedly deserve this title!
Leafbare 8 (Dec 2020 - Feb 2021): Fae was one of the top posters on Fate during Leafbare 8, and has always been excited to plot and thread with others! I have no clue how she can push out 600+ word posts for all of her characters, often one right after another, but I'm constantly in admiration of her skill.
Newleaf 8 (Mar 2021 - May 2021): Aqua was one of the few members still RPing during Newleaf 8, when the site went into a semi-hiatus mode. Aqua is always a joy to chat with on Discord and has some of the most delightful characters on the site! And if you haven't seen her tables, they are a must-see!! *chefs kiss*
Greenleaf 8 (Jun 2021 - Aug 2021): Amber was another active member during another season of relatively low activity. More importantly though, she was truly a pillar of the community during a time things were getting really shaken up on the site. Without her help in discussions and getting things organized for the new Clans, Fate might be looking very different today!
Leaf-fall 9 (Sep 2021 - Nov 2021): Mint joined us back in 2020, but in Leaf-fall 9 her character Snake was promoted to Lead Cave-Guard. She was one of the top posters on the site during this time, and many of us have had the pleasure of getting to thread with her! She's a wonderful addition to Fate's community!!
Leafbare 9 (Dec 2021 - Feb 2022): Jos was one of the most active members during Leafbare 9, and it was only a couple months later that she applied everyone's favoritenat-20 rolling grump Cloudtail to become GorgeClan deputy. Not only is she a fantastic person to RP with, but she is an amazing addition to the staff team who truly cares about Fate's community!
Newleaf 9 (Mar 2022 - May 2022): Gemini was another member who joined us back in 2020, but we've recently had the privilege of seeing so much more of her wonderful characters and awesome plots! She is such a lovely person in our community, always excited to plot with others and very passionate about her characters and the ideas she has for them.
I scrolled through 2 years worth of posts on every one of your accounts just to determine the best candidate for each season so these are not random winners chosen on a whim or based on favoritism or bias - you guys poured so much love and passion into your characters and writing during the season you won and it did not go unnoticed. <3
Each winner will receive 50 prey and one free item from the OOC section of the shop, as well as your own member group for winning MOTS. I will also be able to update your miniprofile background color (the way mine is purple) to any color you like - if you'd like it to match your gradient username, let me know and I will color-pick from that!
Congratulations to all the winners, and thank you for being part of our community! <3
