Dear Bats,
Movie nights are official! Here's how things will work, I have made a new section titled "Movie Nights". In it are three boards; "Movie Submissions" "Movie Polls" and "Movie Discussions".
First, we have to take in submissions to be put in the poles. Everyone is invited to submit a movie, each user can submit one movie per month. The only real stipulation is that it has to be something everyone can access, like on Tubi or Youtube. As for gore and violence, I think I'll just have warnings up for those that don't like extreme stuff. As long as there is a good mix of movies that everyone would like to watch I think it'll work out just fine. Movie submissions can be taken at any time, and will be added to a list off-forum.
For polling, all current movie submissions will be added to a monthly poll. This poll will last one week, and the winner will be that months movie. Movies will stay on the polls until chosen. Once the list of movies inevitably grows too long, only the movies further back on the list will be polled.
Everyone will have one week to watch the movie chosen, this gives enough time to watch at your own pace before the discussions begin.
Discussions will start one week after the movie. Discussions on certain movies are open at anytime after the one week wait. These are spoiler zones! If you have not yet seen the movie, you may want to refrain from these threads.
Movie nights will be starting next month, April 2024. Polling will begin on Monday April 1st, and will end on Sunday April 7th, movie week will be from Monday April 8th, to Monday April 15th, and discussions will start on Monday April 15th.
I have made a calendar so everyone can easily stay up to date on when things are happening. I'll mark out when polls, movies, and discussions are starting. The calendar can be seen on the homepage, and on the calendar tab at the top of the screen. As this forum grows I'll be adding more events.
This calendar also shows birthdays! Proper birthday congratulations can now be given in the birthday board! If you do not wish your birthday to appear on the calendar, go to the profile tab > edit profile > privacy > birthday visibility > hide. PLEASE DO NOT SET YOUR FULL BIRTHDAY! Please keep the year privated for safety reasons.
From Sunday March 10th to Saturday March 16th I will be absent from the forum. Going on a wilderness sabbatical lol. One week no computer for me! Yayy!!!! :3
Once i do get back, I will make another post on Tumblr promoting the forum. Hoping to get some new members interested in our movie nights!
Okay, I think that's all the announcements I have for now. If you have any questions on how movie nights work, or about anything else, please leave a reply in the thread and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!
Unpleasant dreams, Spikes.
