The writing areas are going to be getting a bit of a revamp. While we aren't taking anything away, we are definitely adding more to it. More goodies, more tutorials, and more areas to get involved in.

The biggest addition is the roleplaying center. Oh yes, you read that right. Roleplaying is coming to Mayhem and Madness 2. It isn't your average forum roleplay. There is no site-wide plot or world that everyone must adhere to. Instead, its a sandbox with lots of other sandboxes inside. Or in other words, its a place where you create your own world and roleplay within a small group, or even with just one other person. While there are rules that would have to be followed, and you can read them when the section makes it debut, this whole area will be a new way to express yourself creatively.

Since its been here for awhile, you've probably noticed there is a 100 Challenge for graphic makers. Well, now there will be one for writers as well. Only, instead of having to write 100 things, which would be an insane challenge, a slightly smaller version will be made available. As with the 100 Challenge for the graphic makers, this is also a personal based one where it is only you and the clock. Unlike the 100 Challenge, there are specific prompts that will be presented that you have to write off of. What those prompts are will be revealed when the challenge itself is.

Now that you know some of our devious plans, we hope you are excited about them. I know I definitely am.

Month of Positivity
Another big themed event! You guys seem to enjoy these and we hope you'll also enjoy this one as well. MOP will be going on throughout the entire month of July and will focus on positive, happy things! The theme of the month is to see things differently, celebrate the things that make you happy and give you inspiration, and so much more. A lot of us are going through negative things and everyone has bad days regardless of any circumstances and so we hope this will something to lifts everyone's spirits and let you know there's good things to celebrate even when there appears not to be.

So, now that you know what the month is about you're probably wondering what's going to be happening? Well, the super fine details are still being figured out but so far we know that there will be lots of challenges, both writing and graphics, that will relate to the theme of the month. This will also include another Last Faerie Standing competition!!

Another exciting aspect of MOP will be having M&M Buddies for the first time ever! It was something that received the second highest amount of votes in our poll asking what you guys would like to receive and so we're happy to finally try it out. With M&M Buddies, you will have the chance to fill out a form and be paired for the month with another M&M member. You will have your own chat thread and be able to talk about anything you'd like. You will also both make a blend for one another that will be entered into a challenge where everyone will receive an award regardless of where you place! (If this is confusing, no worries! It will be explained more in depth once July is here!) We hope that this will encourage you to really get to know your buddy and have fun. There will also be other challenges where you can enter with your buddy if you'd like!

There will also be a few other awesome things as well! We truly do hope that this can be something for you guys to look forward to and have fun with once it's here!

More things to buy with your MD? Yes! but...we need your input!
More things to buy using your MD (Magic Dust) was also another thing in our poll that you guys voted for. Grif recently posted a thread in the Seelie Court asking for suggestions as to what you guys would to be able to buy. Please feel free to suggest anything that comes to mind! It may not be implemented but all suggestions can be helpful. You can find more information in the thread here!
