Originally something I was planning on organizing for the server, I decided to also just put it on tumblr for double the celebration... this is:

🪐Sigma Birthday Week + Questboard🪐

🔎 Summarised:

━━ Sigma's birthday is on the 15th of March, this week; > Talk of a weeklong celebration via making all the things; > "Questboard" to gather ideas / requests in one singular place for ease; ━━ See relevant links at the very bottom!

🪐 Sigma Birthday Week!

We're nearing the 15th of March! You know what that means for the local blorbo-birthday-celebration enjoyers — Let's make it the SIGMA BIRTHDAY WEEK

This is primarily an excuse to bring out all the SigmaEnjoyers from the bushes so that we can create and have fun together!** Let's aim to make and share all the Sigma Overwatch content:**

🔹 This includes but is NOT limited to things such as art, writing, music, memes, screenshot editing, gif making, blingees, picmixes, etc. — So let us create to our heart's content in celebration of our favorite space blorbo!

🔹 There's no need to notify anyone in particular before posting, just post away whenever you finish something or want to — even after the dates. Don't worry about it we're still all going to love it;

🔹 I'm going to be maintaining some kind of "Quest Board", which is merely a place to keep requests and ideas from everyone in a singular place. These are OPTIONAL and might not be fulfilled, but it's a good spot to find something to draw if you feel stuck!

⏰ WHEN & WHERE 10th to 16th of March 15th is Sigma's birthday

🔎 Post anywhere! Make sure to tag your posts with the usual tags so others can find it.

🪐 Questboard Submission Guidelines

🔹 Quests / Requests / Ideas are OPTIONAL and serve merely as potential directions for folks who might want to draw for others, or simply need ideas — Sending one in doesn't necessarily guarantee it'll get fulfilled, but people will certainly see it!

🔹 There is no limit to how many ideas you can submit. Blast away those forms! Only thing I request is that you submit 1 idea per form;

🔹 Multiple people can — and I'd even encourage to — fulfil the same request / idea if they so wish! It's always fun seeing how differently someone interprets a prompt;

🔹 NSFW is accepted, but please remember the quest board is public (as well as your handle if you want to get tagged upon completion) and as such I ask that you keep that in mind;

🔹 Anything containing illegal, hateful, -phobic, etc. activities or language will be removed from the questboard.

Seeing a lot of complaints about Wilds low rank being too railroady and that you're continuously forced go straight to the next fight, but honestly, I don't think that's really the case? Sure, there aren't really sidequests in low rank which is a damn shame, but like. Aside from a couple exceptions (ie the double hunt in the ruins), there's a period between hunts where you can go explore and do optional quests and stuff. I certainly stopped during the story to go out and grind optional quests multiple times, and yeah, the maps open more over the course of the story. It is a little railroady, sure, but I'd argue not nearly as much as some people are complaining about. You always have the option to say "no, let me look at the questboard first"

Coming home to my family afterward makes the work richer, easier and more fun.

Day 1 of the Hideduo Kiss Week Event by LazyCat

Day 1 prompt: Kiss on the cheek

1.6k words|stardew valley au family fluff| no TW's apply|ao3 link

After a long day in the mines, all Fit wants to do is sit at the fire with his husband Pac and their three kids, Richarlyson, Ramón and Rosa. This is him doing exactly that and what comes after.

Fic under the read more

The sun set slowly as Fit was walking back to the farm from the mountains, having gotten up early to go mining for a quest put up by Shane on the questboard at Pierre’s shop. He was tired and he hadn’t seen Pac all day, both of them having important things to do, on and off the farm. Despite his exhaustion, he still felt like walking back to the farm instead of taking the rickety minecart that he had given away bars of copper, iron and gold to the community centre for its repair. He didn’t yet trust that it wouldn’t break down mid journey, so he took the scenic route; past Linus’ tent and the Carpenter’s Shop.

Pac, the night before, had insisted that he’d stay at the farm the next day, wanting to spend time with their sons Ramón and Richarlyson and daughter Rosa, wanting to get the new animals that they’d bought recently from Marnie to get acclimated to the farm. Fit smiled to himself, despite being the primary owner of the farm, it having been his grandfather’s before him, he would not have thought to try to acclimate the farm animals personally. He’d have just let them do their thing until they were comfortable enough for him to shear them or take their eggs. But that was very in nature for Pac, especially when he, while Fit went mining or to Calico Desert for the Skull Caverns, looked after their two boys and the newest addition to their family. Though that’s not to say that Pac didn’t also do those things, they took it in turns to go mining while the other spent time at the farm.

Reaching the northernmost point of the farm, Fit made a pit stop to the water bowl outside the house, refilling it with water from his watering can. It was a task that normally they’d let the kids do but Fit noticed it to be empty. He didn’t like their cat, at first; it being a mangy old thing that Ramón had fallen in love with when it had made its home underneath the covering over their small orchard. He ’d succumbed to the puppy dog look that his three boys pulled when he suggested moving the cat somewhere else. Having filled Katos’ bowl and emptied his items in their assorted chests, he headed into the house.

Their house was laid out in a pretty standard way, Fit thought, with the first room you entered from the front door being the living room with kitchen on the left, in an open plan design. On the furthest wall from the front door was a fireplace that he and Pac had built together, as the house when he first moved in had no central heating. It wasn’t built well, clearly having multiple repairs made to it over their time living on the farm but he loved it. It was a show of their love of their home. Of their life spent together.

Shouts too loud for the time it was could be heard from the armchair in front of the fire, followed by little footsteps that could only belong to his two sons. He crouched down, reaching their height as they bulldozed their way into his arms, feeling the full force of two young children slamming into his body.

“Well isn’t it good to be back home eh? I hope you boys have been behaving yourselves for your Pai,” Fit looks at the two boys in his arms, having stood up with a child in each arm.

They both nod before, in almost unison, rambling about what happened while he was gone, voices getting muddled as they spoke on top of one another. Fit nods as if he’s understanding the two, when in reality, their voices blend into one amalgamation that no one would be able to understand. The young boys don’t notice this however, both too engrossed in informing their dad of the day’s events.

He walks to where Pac was still sitting with their youngest child Rosa leaning on his chest, sleeping soundly. He gently lowers each of the boys back onto the armrests of the chair, ruffling Ramón’s wavy hair, knowing that it wouldn’t have the potential to badly affect the boy’s hair like it would Richarlyson’s tight, curled hair.

“Oi Fitchie. Tudo bem?” Pac talks quietly, aware of the sleeping toddler, eyes quickly taking in any visible injuries on Fit’s person. Fit smiles to himself at the action, feeling Pac’s love through his searching eyes. He had no injuries for Pac to treat but he allowed his husband to look for some anyways.

“Oh you know, the usual. Too many slimes and cave flies,” Fit reaches a hand out to cup Pac’s face before kissing his cheek, “I’ll let you continue the story while I shower and get ready for bed.” He emphasises the end of his sentence, knowing that his boys do not like the preemptive part of going to bed, but adored the actual act of sleeping greatly. Pac, as if their relationship was brand new and not several years old at this point, blushed scarlet at Fit’s action, still not fully used to the initially stoic man showing such affection.

He heads off to shower and as he walks away, he can hear Pac picking up from where he left off, midway through telling a story of an adventure of him as a teen with their Tia Bagi and Tio Cellbit. The trio were known as the ‘troublesome trio’ growing up, having grown up in Pelican Town unlike Fit.

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Feeling fresh and mostly rested after his shower, Fit walked back into the living room to see Pac having finished his story with their two boys on the verge of sleep, resting their heads on his shoulders. Picking up Richarlyson softly, so as to not rouse him from his almost slumbering state, he leads Pac holding both Rosa and Ramón in his arms to the children’s bedroom. As the two boys were still young they shared a room while Rosa got the smallest room that connected to Fit and Pac’s room. Once the two grew older, they’d commission Robin to build another room in the house for whichever of the kids to move into.

Fit took off Richarlyson’s prosthetic, knowing the boy would be too drowsy to unhook the little bands and clasps, before tucking him into his bed. He also tucked Richarlyson’s hair into his bonnet, preventing the potential for his hair to frizz as he slept. His side of the room was a lot messier than Ramón’s, with a mural in its beginning stages being painted on one wall and paint supplies and sketches strewn across the floor. As Pac had told him once, if it had happened at the orphanage where he grew up, the culprit would’ve been forced to get rid of it themselves; sanding away the paint and giving the wall a fresh coat of whatever bland off-white they’d decided to paint that specific room.

To Fit’s right, he could see in his peripheral vision that Pac was doing the same with Ramón, tucking him in tightly and leaving a kiss on the top of his head before exiting the room. Fit followed after him, having leaned Ricarlyson’s leg against his bedside table so that it was in arm’s reach for when the child woke up. Ramón’s side of the room was no less messy, more it being an organised mess. He knew where everything was despite the numerous pieces of machinery he’d been tinkering with scattered across any available surface.

They go back to the lounge after having put Rosa in her crib, sitting together on the armchair despite them clearly not being able to fit comfortably. Speaking in quiet voices, they tell each other of their days; who they spoke to, what fofoca Pac managed to get and other such things. As they spoke, the crackles of the fire faded into background noise, the two solely focusing on each other with a slight ear out listening for the potential of Rosa waking up.

It’s late into the night when their conversation dwindles down, the need to sleep finally taking hold of their bodies. Pac kisses his cheek before lightly tapping his ass, signalling him to get up from his lap so that they could go to bed. It’s not a common motion for Pac to do, so it causes Fit to stutter and stumble slightly as he lifts himself from his husband’s lap and walks to their room, glancing briefly at all of the different adventures the family had been memorialised in a gallery wall.

Their room was decorated simply. With framed birth certificates for each of their children and the deed to the farm pinned to one wall. Their bed rested against another wall and was a successful experiment of Robin’s, and was kindly given to the pair as a wedding gift when she had heard Pac jokingly complain about Fit’s old bed. They walked to the bed, each choosing a side, before getting comfortable. They were both quite specific on how they slept; Fit needed flat pillows for he slept on his back, having needed to sleep that way when living in a rundown area of Zuzu City, and Pac needed fluffy pillows for he slept on his side facing away from the wall, needing to be aware of his surroundings at all times because of the hostility in the orphanage he grew up in. They fell into a deep sleep quickly, the events of the day fully catching up to the pair.

With the sound of chickens clucking and their other animals waking up, Fit rouses to a weight on his chest. Expecting it to be Pac, he rests his hand on their hair, only to feel the bonnet that he’d gotten Richarlyson to wear not even twelve hours prior. He lifts his head up slightly, looking to his side to see his position replicated but with Pac and Ramón, his heart warming at the sight. 

This was home, Fit thought.

I dont want to be given a roxycoin I want to earn it. I want to become a paid worker for Roxy

youo have to take a quest from the questboard okay?

[dasindosie]

TasFaire/Tasquest Art dump from this weekend!

I had an absolute blast leading the QuestBoard event but I am high-key crashing out lol. We didn't expect 2k-3k people to show up so it was absolutely insane the amount of foot traffic we got, oof

So worth it though!!

Sitting down and making all of these and also the Quest Board itself was super fun. I just hope next time I can iron out any issues!

[gameexclaim]

The world and NPCs of Exclamania have seemed to vanish or rarely appear nowadays. My theory is that, because the one constant of Exclamania's world, the questboard, is down, Exclamania is falling apart. The last time it went down, Exclamania was still in the alpha stage. Perhaps a new game/world is being born?

Exclamania TWO???

You know what, I'm going to do it.

Not bothering with a drawing, but I wanted to name her Ailis, a Chanter from Starkhaven. Because I like Sebastian's potential and we need more people with the accent in the game, please.

Anyway, personality: Witty, smart, yet easily spiteful. She knows she is crazy smart and is not afraid to show it off with her memory of the Chant, including the Imperial Chant and verses that were cut off. I like to imagine her being somewhat like the monk in "My Ajusshi"; someone everyone thought would get far in life and was talented and the envy of others, yet left it all to dedicate herself to the temple. I like to think her family are not religious and think she is doing this all out of spite, not knowing that she did genuinely convert to Andrastianism by her own will. She did take the chanter's vow partly to spite them whenever they visited, though.

Ailis took the vow for her own reasons, and though she shows her dedication to the Chant of Light by being a chanter, she does not think she is doing any important work for the Maker or the Chantry by doing so; she cannot have the same types of debates on faith and life like others, and she cannot lead by example since she does not think being a chanter can do that (also because she is spiteful, vengeful and proud, so she absolutely cannot lead by example).

Ailis is introduced with a speaker/caretaker that translates for chanters, but that kid dies or something. Maybe the kid was a traitor, or innocent, but anyway, it makes Ailis, for now, travel with the group (though she insists it is not for revenge).

Not sure what sort of abilities she should have; I go back and forth on whether she would be an alchemist that uses healing potions and grenades, if we use DA:tV's battle system. I also think she could be an apostate, which is another reason she is in the chantry, hiding in plain sight while also using her magic abilities to serve people like Andraste wanted. Her being in a position an apostate would not be allowed in the past is another way she would be spiteful.

I was reading a really good Hawke/Sebastian slow-burn the other day, and in it the Prince of Starkhaven has his own secret guard called the Prince's Eyes, and I sort of want to say that Ailis is somewhat involved with some version of them? Especially since Sebastian becomes the Prince of Starkhaven by DA:I any way. But it might be too close to Leliana, a Chantry-involved woman who has a past as a secret agent. Otherwise, perhaps her personal story could be linked to the verses that says the Chant must be sung from all corners of the world, IF there is a deeper connection than the Chant being imperialistic propaganda.

The chanters we meet in the games are preachers standing by a questboard, so we do not really see them as anything by preachers. Ailis, and other chanters probably, is still young and has other duties, and will laugh, snort and sigh in conversations, and I want her to have a "(drained sigh)" or the like from the needling of the other companions. It would be important to get across that when Ailis says the Chant, she doesn't preach, it is her trying to speak her mind with the limitations she has set upon herself, because I know that players, probably myself also, will find her annoying if there is a certain tone in a scene, then suddenly she gives commentary where quoting the Chant is innapropriate even if what she wants to say is "feels bad, bro".

Her VA would have to be able to communicate feelings despite speaking only in bible quotes, because even though she always says the Chant, sometimes she says it in angry rebuke, or delighted, or laughing through it. Sometimes she is panicked, and the animation will show her notice something and basically search her brain for the right way to communicate what she said. Again, important to get across that she is just a regular young person who happens to challenge her vocabulary, and not a fanatical preacher, even if she will definetely be misunderstood to be one by other NPCs and players.

Party banter at the beginning is mostly other companions trying to make her say something other than the Chant, or to test her ability to communicate with only the Chant. Those that are more antagonistic against the Chantry will try to antagonize her, insult her or the Maker, sometimes because they know she cannot really fight back in a meaningful way (speaking only the Chant severily limits the ability to have deep debate, and even if she manages, they will just say that she has no mind of her own). Over time, as they all get to know each other, communication gets easier and they make their own inside jokes.

She gives approval when someone is being clever, twisting words or being a rules-lawyer, which comes from her own time as a chanter having to analyze the Chant's lines in order to find ones that fit in situations, and being a prideful yet spiteful person that likes to show off. Tiny approvals when choosing the right interpretations of her quotations; not enough to be a dealbreaker for romance (if there is one). She also approves when the player defends her when others misinterpret her, or when the player helps "translate" her chants to people that either don't know what a chanter is, or struggle to understand.

She disapproves of purposeful disrespect of religion; if a non-believer states that they don't believe as a matter of fact, she says nothing, but non-believers that purposefully insult others' beliefs will get her disapproval, even more so when it is the Chantry. She also disapproves of complicated questions meant to make it harder for her to answer with the Chant of Light, in which she will give a warning and a second chance for the player to choose a different question, complain or go harder.

There would, ideally, be four variants of her character development: Unhardened chanter, hardened chanter, unhardened vowbreaker and hardened vowbreaker.

In the Vowbreaker developments, she will have broken her vow somehow, and will from then on speak normally.

And, just because it would be funny, she is joined by other companions, one who is a believer of Tevinter's Old Gods (they believe that the gods have been cleansed and have returned to a new, better state or something), another is either one of the Disciples from Awakening in full plague doctor attire or a member of the resurrected Empty Ones cult that are trying to bring back the Blights. Of course we have one or two Dalish in tow, one who would have happily joined Elgar'nan to end the world and another who is like "yo, what's the point of it all when the gods were evil?" or something.

What would be the MSQ that brings them together? Beats me, it would just be funny.

is this anything.

Blog#2 Market Sizing

Market sizing refers to the process of estimating the total potential market demand for a product, service, or solution. It provides an understanding of the overall market opportunity in terms of revenue, number of potential customers, or units sold. Market sizing is crucial for businesses to evaluate the feasibility of launching a product, entering a new market, or expanding operations.

Market sizing typically involves:

Total Addressable Market (TAM): The total revenue opportunity if a product or service were to capture 100% of the market.

Serviceable Addressable Market (SAM): The portion of the TAM that a company can realistically target, considering its business model, resources, and capabilities.

Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM): The segment of the SAM that a company expects to capture within a specific timeframe, based on competition, strategies, and capacity.

Summary:

TAM: Php 360 million (total potential market for all college students and part-time workers in the Philippines)

SAM: Php 22 million (focused on USTP students and part-time workers)

SOM: Php 2.2 million (realistic short-term capture goal)

Conclusion

With a student population of 20,000 at USTP, the market sizing analysis indicates a significant revenue opportunity for QuestBoard. By focusing on this specific demographic and leveraging its unique features tailored to students and part-time workers, QuestBoard can strategically position itself to capture a meaningful share of this growing market while expanding its presence over time.

A place in town

I know a place. It serves warm ale and cold meals. That's not what interest us though. What interest us is the boar head on top of the hearthfire and the questboard. One quest, which always strays up: 1 gold coin per gnoll hear. Easy money you would say, right? Wrong, as I look at my dead comrades around me and then look back at the death hound in front of me. I'm dead aren't I?

- A rogue, probably.
