Oh my god, where do I even start...

So, I joined Eway in November 2006, with Fai D. Flowright from Tsubasa. I played here as a player for two years and I just fell in love with this game. Everyone was always really kind and wonderful to me during a really unstable time in my life (I was a senior in high school when I joined). I always felt really welcome and at home here, and everyone who played here at the time made me feel welcome.

Things slowed down a little in 2008, and that fall I was asked to become a moderator. I wanted this game to last and I wanted to do what I could to help, so I agreed, even though I'd previously told everyone I knew I would never, ever mod a game again. I quit all my other games and devoted all my RP time to Entraceway. That was eight years ago now, and I've been a one-game person ever since. We almost died that year, but after some structural changes (like allowing the Mirrors to be used whenever people wanted), FAQ rewrites, and advertising we were as strong as ever.

We've cycled through many many many players and mods since then, but in the last five years or so I've really noticed that people stay longer and longer than ever before. We have characters that have been in the game five years or more, and players that have been around even longer. And you'd think that would be a recipe for cliquey-ness, but we've been so lucky over the years. We've always attracted the kind of players who are looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to play and who try to make it feel that way for others. I've heard people say we're considered a good game for people brand new to this type of RP and I honestly think that's the best reputation we could possibly have. I can count on one hand the amount of significant drama we've had, and the majority of it happened so long ago it was on LJ. This game means the world to me and has gotten me through difficult periods in my life. I've met some of my best friends here.

I have more feelings than I could POSSIBLY express in one comment, but I just wanted to take the time to say that I am so overwhelmingly grateful to EVERYONE who has made this game what it is. To everyone who's every passed through and given us a chance, to everyone who's stayed and settled in and made this game their home, and to anyone who has ever modded with me and helped me bring our ideas to light to create something REALLY special and amazing - thank you. Thank you SO much. We really couldn't have gotten this far without you, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you. ♥

haha wow so ive been in and out of this game off and on since about... february 2007, when i first joined with martel from tales of symphonia. i guess i always find myself coming back to this game and now i have difficulty playing anywhere else. theres just something about the atmosphere here that makes it feel truly like home, like a real home game should i guess, haha. its the players, i think. eway attracts a certain type of person that is welcoming and open to all kinds of people. i get along with everyone here, and i feel like i kind of know everyone. maybe that comes with joining and rejoining this game so many times since nine freaking years ago, i dunno haha.

ive made some friends ive known now for a large chunk of my life. this game seriously got me through some dark points in my life. ive grown a lot as a person since ive been here, but everyone has always accepted me even at my jerkiest haha. i cant believe this game is 10 now. im looking forward to seeing if anyone ive played with in the past will come back for this event, gosh. this game is so long running for a reason you guys. im so glad to be on this ride with all of you, old and new.

HELLO FRIENDS...

I first joined back in October 2007 with Azure Kite on a whim to join a cast that dissolved pretty quickly, and somehow ended up sticking around for 3(?) years before leaving for other games. Except not really, because I came back like... two or three more times after that. And I maybe still stalk you guys a little. And maybe I might have most of an app sitting around...

I've been in and out of the game a few times now, but eway was my first real venture into LJRP, so it will forever hold a dear and special place in my heart. Same goes for all the wonderful folks I've met here. We've drifted in and out of eachother's online lives over the years, but every time I run into someone again it still feels like it was just yesterday we were playing and chatting together and crafting elaborate fake games to troll RPSecrets with. I never could've expected eway would stick with me the way it did, or that a decade after it's creation it'd still be kicking around with that same warm and welcoming environment it always had. I haven't even been in the game in years and it's still high on my recommendation list whenever folks in my RPcircles are looking for games.

idk what else to say besides holy shit going down my archive of apps and looking at all the old characters I used to play, why are there so many I barely even remember some of these...

Mimicking what Koji said, holy cow this is a great place to start RPing. One day, as I randomly searched for Coraline Jones stuff online (circa 2009), I ran into a Coraline character here at Eway. My initial reaction was sort of, "WOW what is happening here," because Coraline was talking and doing things and people were replying. Roleplay was an extremely obscure concept to me at the time, and it took ages to figure out exactly how everything worked. I'll never forget that magical first moment seeing this character I love come to life.

So I was completely new, had not a single friend to teach me, and Eway just ran with it. I didn't know about OOC plotting, I didn't have AIM, I didn't even put up an OOC intro post. I'm sure I did things that had people raising eyebrows. But I NEVER felt unwelcome or discouraged, and pretty soon people had shown me the ropes. Eway people.

When I decided to RP again after a long hiatus, I looked around at a lot of games- and it was still Eway that I joined. I think this really is the best game for me, and I was just lucky enough to find it on my first try!

Talking from the opposite side of the world gets in the way sometimes and I'm awkward as heck online, but- all I want to say is, it's definitely the mods and the players that make this game. Thank you all for being a big chunk of my life, though we've never even seen each other! Especially because, to this day, even though I hardly ever talk OOC to you guys, you've never pushed me away.

Entranceway wasn't my first LJRP game, but it's certainly been the best. I've been here since Christmas 2010 when I apped into the Glee cast with Shannon Beiste, who I kept around until May 16th 2015. I can't say that I was always 100% active over these six years (wowowow) thanks to school and my confidence flagging, but I've never fully left. This place feels like home, as do the mods and veterans who've stuck around or kept coming back.

As you'll see when I list all my characters that I've had here, my favorite thing about this place is its ability to absorb and integrate even totally obscure characters, or characters who would likely flounder anywhere else. That, and the fact that people are so so understanding about how life can get in the way and how your happiness as a person should come before this hobby have made this a place I can't imagine leaving.

I'm totally open to call kinds of fourth wall interactions during this event, and if you want to see someone make a comeback or leap out of my muselist, please let me know!

It's seriously unbelievable how long I've been in this game, holy crap, like...almost seven years now.

Eway was actually My Very First Game, introduced by a college friend, back when it was on livejournal, and I haven't strayed far from home save for a little meandering now and then because the atmosphere has always been so welcoming, the people have always been communicative, and the mod team responsive -- I've grown up with them, for goodness' sake!

It's never been clique-y and even when playing Lone Canon Warriors I've never had an issue feeling alienated, or getting CR. People are open and excited and generally so chill with learning about new canons, becoming interested in them, being enabled into them. The culture here is a little family of its own, and when we made the jump from lj to dw it was hard, but everyone largely stuck together for it. We were that determined.

Eway helped me improve my drawing (lmao back in the recesses of my tumblr), got me connected to a lot of phenomenal people, and gave me amazing friends in exciting places. 10/10, would recommend.

OH MAN, EWAY. This game has been my home for a while now. Not as long as some, but it looks like I first joined it back in April of 2013! Even back then, it was a game that had been around for a while, and I basically joined on a whim because some of my friends were joining. I honestly didn't know if it would turn into anything, since I'd had a hard time finding a game that stuck at that point.

But it turned out wonderfully, as everyone in the game was so friendly, and a whole host of new players came in around the same time as I did. Honestly, the atmosphere of this game has always been so warm and so welcoming, and I have watched the mods carry out their duties for over three years while making it look effortless, even though I know it isn't!

The runs I've had with the characters I play here, the CR I've cultivated and the friends I've made, are things I wouldn't give up for the world. My only real regret is that I can't play more characters here because my life has gotten progressively busier since I've joined, but it's a game that I wouldn't leave unless I was dragged kicking and screaming.

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of the game, whether you're a mod or a player, for making it feel so much like home. I can't wait to see what the 10th year anniversary has in store for us!

cries tears about all this tbh

EWAY has always been my "home game." I was here with Sam (albeit a different journal) from May-November 2012. Then, for SOME wrongful reason, I left... and came back in I think May of 2013 with a different Sam. Couldn't stay away!

Since then, I've been here with a number of characters, though consistently with Sam. I'm just realizing that I've never been here WITHOUT Sam, so that adds to my Emotions. He's a strong and an older muse and this may have been his first game; at the very least, he's tied in forever to this place.

I always compare other games to eway. It's my favorite game with incredible players and superb mods. I've made such great friends here and have had fantastic threads from the hilarious to the heartbreaking. It wouldn't have been possible without the hard work of our mods and the talents of my fellow players, so thank you all for the memories. I'm beyond excited for the 10th birthday party event and for everything else to come!

I've only been in Eway for a little over six months, but in that time it has firmly become my home game. I kept almost joining for a good couple of years, mostly due to seeing links on Kai's plurk and liking what a relaxed, friendly environment it seemed, but I was always a little too reticent to make the leap because, somewhat ironically, I actually really hate Alice in Wonderland (it still amuses me that I've gelled so well in a game based on that source material). I'm so glad that I finally took the plunge because everyone here has been incredibly welcoming to me. I'd never have thought the game was approaching 10 years old when I joined because it still feels very fresh and hasn't stagnated at all. I feel so lucky that I've found such a laid back, friendly environment to RP in.

I'll be around for the 4th wall reunion parties, with Eway memories, so hopefully we'll be able to bump shoulders again.

Eway has become the game I've been in the longest and I am very shocked at thinking how long I've been here!! I first joined in August 2013 but was only here for about a month?? before I dropped because life. I kept browsing things that were linked and absolutely missed the game so I ended up coming back in October for the Halloween event and it just stuck!!

Everyone is absolutely friendly and it's made me really enjoy being here. Any time I've had troubles with a character arc or motivations people have always been there to help and it's been the friendliest and best experience I've felt in a game, and there's so many people here that I treasure and am glad that I know!!

HI POTENTIAL NEW FRIENDS ♥

My name is Squish and I've been here in Eway since February-- it was really a last minute decision to get back into online roleplaying, but before a couple years of hiatus, I was bigtime into the RP scene. I had heard of Eway, but never joined.

I joined and I was completely overwhelmed by all the loving, kindhearted people who play here. I've never felt more accepted anywhere in my roleplaying career, nor have I ever roleplayed with as many extremely talented and amazing players anywhere else. It's been amazing!!

Life is a little crazy sometimes! But I'm more excited than ever to be here and be apart of something as majestic and awesome as a ten year anniversary, LIKE??? THIS IS AMAZING IN EVERY WAY AND I AM SO HONORED TO BE HERE.

If you're looking to work your way back into roleplaying and need some kind words and love, Eway is definitely, without a doubtedly, one hundred percentedly the best place to go. I'm looking forward to moving forward and seeing what happens!!

WOW! A Very Merry 10th Birthday to you, Entranceway!

I was one of the older "second wave" players here, joining back in March/April 2008 when we were still kickin' around on livejournal. I was rping in Discedo at the time, and quickly realized how much overlap the starting playerbase had with Eway. I lurked around for a couple of months, invited to the AIM chatroom by a great gang of mutual friends, before I finally joined with Replica Riku madeinoblivion from Kingdom Hearts (Who Namine proceeded to rename 'Arland', which means 'Pledge'.) I remember a lot of zaniness and brainstorming in chat and on Skype- it became a very comfortable place to hang out and get through a tough season of my early post-college years. I was friendly with most of the 2nd gen mods, and I remember loosely plotting out how a chess match event might be run over a Christmas date night with my girlfriend Kal, way back in the day.

The first mansion event I popped in on was the Silent Hill UFO ending event! Which proceeded to set the tone for an abundance of really fun and unusual happenings around the mansion. This game has always had such a good mix of fun and tearjerking events, and plenty of opportunities for shennanigans. Some of Arland's stand out moments were causing havoc with flinging the contents of Beast Boy, Linda and Kite's underwear drawer at the chandliers, having an awkward father-son relationship with Vexen, and making a promise to bake treacle treats for the dormouse every Tuesday. (Which, if I'm remember correctly, also had a ton to do with establishing one of the early mirrorverse plots.)

In early 2009 I added Coraline Jones exploring_game to my roster, and she was a great inquisitive addition to the mansion, from becoming an honorary Gryffindor (and Weasley, despite the blue hair) to becoming the object of Mirror!Fakir's authorial interests as a plucky protagonist. I loved having an Other Father to play with, and feeling so included by the Marble Hornets cast in creepy things happening in the woods.

I also played Yzma from Emperor's New Groove (wrong_lever), because what could be more well suited for Eway's sillier antics than a cranky old bat who sounds like Eartha Kitt? She enjoying shooing rowdy kids out of the hall, had many failed attempts at flirting with the Winchesters, and was generally a scary-beyond-all-reason sight in her bathrobe with cucs on her eyes.

I've ducked in and out to play here a few more times, always welcomed warmly even when I couldn't quite keep up with the growing pace.... I had a brief stint with Demyx sitarslacker & more recently Jacuzzi Splot crybabybootleg from Baccano for a few months, circa 2012ish.

I hope to bring these familiar faces back around for the 4th wall, and possibly rejoin if I feel like I can wrestle some character back into my bones- I've missed this place a lot and it always brings me back.

Eventually, modding committments at Siren's Pull did drag me away from Eway, but I have been watching you grow fondly from not-very-far, and have always played sidelines cheerleader to Koji's efforts at keeping the mansion on the rails all these years. You all are SO, so lucky to have such a dedicated and cheerful headmod who pours so much energy, patience and love into this place. NO game makes it this far without clearheaded guidance, sticking to concept without going stale, encouraging a slew of player-supported events and maintaining an infection enthusiasm even when the numbers are down. You are the kind of heartfelt leadership that every creative world needs behind it to thrive, Koji ♥

Anyway, I played mainly D'Art (this guy!!!) from the 2011 version of the Three Musketeers and Annie Edison from Community (chloroformedthejanitor). For a brief time I played Katniss! (symbolised) and I think...they were the main ones? I might be forgetting other people. Oops. ANYWAY!

I always love when you swing by tbh. It always FEELS like you've come home after a long time away. There's a small core of people who come and go but I never worry that I'll never see them again. You, Rema, Kite, sometimes Charlie. It's always like "oh hey, welcome back, pull up a chair and thread with me. how's your life been??".

HOWEVER I ALSO REMEMBER I BARELY GOT TO PLAY WITH YOU UNTIL WE HAD A COUPLE CASTS and even that was kind of brief even though we were the actual best Hetalia cast ever (and Rue HOW COULD I FORGET RUE our tiny Princess Tutu cast) but I always wanted to? LOOK AT THOSE CHARACTERS THEY'RE ALL SO COOL. But man, the last couple times you've been here we've had SO much CR and I'm so glad! I'VE HAD SO MANY GREAT THREADS WITH YOU IN THE LAST YEAR. You're so much fun to play with and it's always worth the wait for you to come back to us. It's so good to have you around, good to have you on this ride with us. ♥

oh man I can't believe eway is turning 10?? I remember when Koji took over modding I had talked about applying but the game had never sat with me well in my early RPing days; I was really active at a ton of other places (mostly notably modding at Discedo and playing 4 characters over there, I was best known for Namine [dustedsunlight] so I just watched from afar and laughed at cast shenanigans and memes. Eway was like my odd sibling game that I just heard a bunch about as it went along and always kinda wished I could find my place. I had small stints with Estonia from Hetalia and Rose Lalonde from Homestuck but I fell out of rp for like... years after that (this was somewhere in 2012/2013ish? at the end of my last rp career.) I had made plans to come back but never really did, but Eway was still on my browser bookmarks and I found it again early this year and thought "Oh... I wonder how they're doing? Oh, dang, they have an Undertale cast... and not the character I'd think about playing... maybe I should message Koji, see what's up. Yeah. Just a message."

I have never been so happy about anything in my life, like, ever. Everyone I've met here has been amazing and I'm finally glad to have found my place here after so many fits and starts. I wanna stick around a long time!! ♥♥

[coverme]

hello everyone! i'm so excited to keep coming back to this mingle to see all the people, new and old, who show up!!

anyway!! i'm grey and i haven't been in eway nearly as long as a lot of the people here. i first joined way back in august of 2013 because i thought the game sounded really interesting and i'd heard a lot of good things about it. i think it took me a little time to get settled back then because i was a LCW from a series that not a lot of people in game at the time were very familiar with, but i found my stride and started talking oocly with people more and... man, i don't know, i just started falling in love. everyone was and continues to be so damn friendly here and i really love that so much. as i started bringing in a couple more characters, i considered eway my home game.

i was in game for a couple months over a year with agent washington, the character i apped in with initially, but i think it was about october 2014 that i kind of just... disappeared off of the rp radar altogether. i didn't even drop, just kind of left. real life got to me, i guess--i can't remember exactly how or why it happened, but i wasn't in a great place as i recall.

but then!! in november of 2015 (so not quite a year ago yet, but surprisingly close already???) i started thinking about getting back into dwrp because i missed it so much. i was taking it slow, easing my way back in, checking out the games out there and what had changed, and oh my gosh, when i saw eway was still around and strong as ever? i didn't even have to question it. it was the first game i apped into after my long hiatus and i'm so, so glad that i did because i missed it so much and i've been having even more fun here this time around than in my first go of things, which is honestly saying a lot!

honestly, just. this game is fantastic and unlike any other that i've ever played in. it's the only one i've stuck around in for so long and held characters in consistently with. all of the players i've run into are so fantastic, the mods are amazing and lovely people, the player AND mod plots continue to be fun and engaging and unique and aaaggghhhh... i could wax poetic about how much i love everyone in this bar for hours, honestly. thanks eway, you've gotten me through rough times in my life, i've made some good friends, and i've had so many fun times here and look forward to everything to come in the future. <3

Oh my gosh I was wondering when someone would mention the glorious City of One Loo. Our legacy.

Kite, some of my fondest RP memories are from your first time here, and I'm always SUPER glad to see you. You're probably one of the first people I played with where medium divide really, truly was never a problem. You had all these obscure video game characters but were always quick to come get CR with me. And we had some AMAZING CR - we had the first ever Mirror/Real Thing ship in game canon with Mirror Fakir and Palette! And god, Palette with Faker the real Fakir was just...what CR dreams are made of. AND OSWALD AND JAMES, AND FLAY and god you always play such amazing characters. You're incredible at giving voice to obscure characters WHICH IS WHY YOU'VE GOTTEN AWAY WITH APPING SOME OF THE CHARACTERS YOU HAVE - our policy has always been "write us an app and see if you can make it work" and you always, always make it work.

On top of that though, you've put in some of the best, most creative events we've EVER gotten in this game, and I remember there was a time when we had a steady supply of events from you. I miss that; your events were always great and complicated and wonderful. Not everyone instinctively gets what's going to work or what won't, but we never usually wind up having to tweak yours.

I MISS YOU WHEN YOU'RE NOT HERE AND I'M ALWAYS GLAD WHEN YOU SWING BY. You're definitely someone who's really helped make this game what it is today, and I'm so happy you're around for the Fourth Wall. ♥
