Wow okay so multi-quote won't work for me for some reason, so here goes.
@Aya: Technically the IC location is Aleport  The FC I'm in just happens to have their house in the Goblet. I'm really happy you like the spot!
@Jancis: I like the idea of providing a playlist. How do you do about performances though? I always figure performers (if needed) just link their video references to their song in an ((OOC Post)) kind of thing. So I guess everyone would just pause their playlist or something, yeah?
Also, I like the idea of the tea-tastings. She actually does provide on her menu, you can order any of her teas (or other drinks) and request additions in the form of potion, mana potion, or even infuse the teas with fruity flavors or alcohol. Â I do want to do holidays and namedays, but haven't quite yet. I figured the grand opening event should probably come first (I was hoping to get it done before Valentoines, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to or not. Unless I do the grand opening /on/ Valentoines, haha.) Â A Valentine's event in my head was similar to your tea party suggestion. Everyone coming in their best and most frilly gear. I bought several (4) of the tea sets to add to the room, along with a couple dishes to have on the tables for good looks haha.
But I mean anyone is more than welcome to rent out the teahouse for something if they like (for IC gil, not real gil. I know not all RPers have that kind of income)
Maybe a blind date night event? Or like Nebbs suggested, a "Lonely Hearts Night." I know a lot of people OOCly have a hard time meeting other people. So a singles night could be super fun.
I thought of doing a minion giveaway, and I wanted to do one of the fancier ones, but to be honest I have no idea which ones people like, haha. I thought about the little bear, maybe. I know there are several people who, at least gameplay wise, don't get a chance to get some of the minions, even if they are kinda cheap. Though I'm not sure how to work a pet giveaway in IC-ly, lol.
I like a lot of the suggestions as future events, but I do wonder just about what to do during a normal, un-themed event. Â Performances is the only thing to come to mind. Maybe a drinking game or something if I can think of one (I like to avoid Kings Game though, it seems to be the go-to game and most people sort of die off and don't want to play it after a turn or two).
If it helps or provides any extra information, here is the wiki pages (main info + menu) for the place.
