Waifu Game XIII: Get Lucky

[color=#006FFF]Monogamy be damned. Alright, fair enough. Wasn't in my plans anyway so yar.

The character is named, yes, but as she's in a simple 1:30 minute long music compilation video short thingamajigger and as such it's not really part of anything you can buy. It's because of this as to why I'm asking. I'm cool either way--yea or nay--I'm really just curious because of the whole situation of it not being part of something commercially sold.

Actually, this could tie into a broader question of:
Are characters in animated shorts (done for events or otherwise) up for grabs if named? Not all of these shorts are sold commercially, so would someone like Akko (from Little Witch Academia) be claimable over someone like Meme (ME!ME!ME!).

And as an addendum to that query, what is the situation on characters who have appeared in an animated short (done for an event or otherwise) and have been named but that short is later/now being made into an animated series? Does the fact that the series itself doesn't technically exist yet make it so they aren't claimable yet despite their exact character actually existing in a pilot of sorts? Or does it just mean that one could claim the character as long as it's sourced with the name of the short as opposed to the upcoming anime series (assuming the titles differ)?

For clarification's sake, I'm talking about any character in the animated short Death Billiards, which came out a year or two ago (back with Little Witch), and has since been announced to be getting an anime come Winter season (known as Death Parade). I can assume, if the character is indeed free game, that the sourcing on them would just be "Death Billiards/Death Parade" just to cover ones' own bases on it but, again, that's assuming they actually are up for grabs.

Didn't see that because of my own stupidity. Thank you for reminding me about the OP.

Let's see how it goes.

Yay!
Long time lurker and recent participant signing in ^^

I've saw this last year but missed it entirely thanks to that exceedingly annoying post limit~ I'm glad I noticed in time this time around.

Good fortune everyone.

Waifus up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky

Not sure if there an official sign-in forum, but count me in.

Signing up for the 13th Waifu Game. I might have to mix my claims for now. We'll wait and see.

in case I didn't before I am signing in to play the game

Lets do this!

I'm in

How much longer until we start?

Can I check something? Concerning



How far does that count with characters that have, in some fashion, alternate universe version that are particularly distinct? As in, they aren't really the same person... but still technically embodiment of them.. sort of... even if they isn't explicitly stated...

And what about characters that are technically the same - as in, have the same names, and the same character design, but different identities?

In both cases I'm thinking of the characters in Black Rock Shooter... and it's various incarnations... and their emotional embodiment other selves...

To explain


Essentially, out of that mess, what counts as distinct characters?

So...about over 9 8 hours from now. He doesn't necessarily start right on the dot, so have your posts ready and auto-refresh (or spam said button) the game thread once it goes up. XD

At least I can finally participate, having missed the last game. (and get 5 claims to boot)

EDIT: Me lern 2 count. >.

Allright checking in, lets see how this round turns out.

Alright read the rules and am somewhat pleased with the reclaim rule. At least we have one now.

Thanks buddy, I appreciate it. my time is different from his so...

Are we only allowed to claim 1 waifu per round or multiple? He didnt address that in the rules.

One per round as usual, I'm sure. Wouldn't make much sense to have rounds otherwise. ;)

Got a question. Are characters from Doujinshi that are based on an actual series allowed to be claimed?

Checking... in...?

I already told him about the thing with BRS in the first game that he took over, I believe.






Alright then, now let's see how this game goes. And Jack, you couldn't have delayed it until maybe after New Years? Doing that would have at least given the game time to get stickied and advertised a bit.

No problem, though I quickly realized my count was just a tad off. XD;;

(Over 6 hours left as of this post and edited my previous one.)
