Ok, I guess I'm finally ready to nominate my character, even though I'm still not so satisfied with what I've written.

Winona Snow



"Believe it or not, thats really me. I live in Pittsburgh, where I work as a barista at a local caf. What Im truly passionate about, though, is my role as the guitarist and sometime singer of the band a few friends and I formed a few years back. I usually like to spend my downtime alone with my cat Possum, listening to music or playing video games. Uh, what else is there to say about me? Sorry, I know this is a bit awkward Im not exactly the most outgoing person ever."

The basics:
- Age 24; dyes her hair a different color every few weeks.
- Winona has a grounded perspective on life, in large part thanks to having to mature quickly in her childhood.
- However, among her many secrets is that shes a dreamer at heart; shes also capricious by nature, with a tendency to run away from her problems rather than facing them.
- Additionally, she has somewhat of a taste for the unique and extravagant, particularly when it comes to outfits for performances.
- Winona leans pansexual, but she struggles to come to terms with her gender identity, in part due to a challenging upbringing dotted with tragedy (in a small post-industrial town to the east of Pittsburgh) and strained relations with her working-class family.

Any feedback (whether via post or PM) is welcome, especially concerning the introduction, which I know sounds rather similar to Andy's character's intro at certain points.

I'll also comment on a few things I've been waiting to say something about until I was ready to nominate my own character:

I can't pick, so I'd like your guys input. Which would be most appealing:

The first of those is my favorite, and for what little it's worth, would be my character's favorite, too.

Due to the lower amount of entrants, I am thinking of changing this to a "fourpack" format with 16 entrants, if we can get that many. We round-robin four fourpacks (24 days of matches) and then do the same for a final fourpack. Thus, it'd be 30 days of matches, so one day less than the original format. Not bad - AND it would make it so characters aren't one-and-done. What do you guys think?

I very much like the idea of a round-robin format, rather than characters being one-and-done, especially with the relatively low interest so far. However, I worry that four-way matches in particular would just dilute what I already anticipate will be a low level of turnout even further.
