How did you guys find out about this project?

Talk about whatever you want as long as it's (even vaguely) related to MS.

Tel-Ha'Shomer base. Not even close.

What's she doing in Israel, though? And in the Caracal battalion, of all places?

I found this on the KS forums, applied as a writer - ended up a "Community Manager," and spammed the hell out of Reddit about this to get interest going. Image

She's Israeli. Went back there after high school here because she didn't know what she wanted to do, just wanted to do something important.

Well, Caracal's definitely something important. I'd made the obligatory lesbian joke, but no point on the internet, I guess.

You guys always get me depressed! If only I'd managed to delay basic training by a couple months, I could have seen the thread soon enough to attempt to join as a writer. Damn! Oh well, I'll settle for translator when the time comes.

I wanted to be a writer but by the time I had something that I wanted to post all of the spots where taken, hopefully I can get on as... well... anything.

I found out through word of mouth via IRL friends. I thought I'd take a look. I'm a "proto-psychologist" (finishing my bachelor's this semester, getting applications together for graduate programs in clinical psychology), so it sounded interesting. I know the dev team has plenty of writers, but I suppose I thought I could offer since I have some amount of expertise in the area of mental disorders and their diagnosis & treatment... if anyone wanted it.

And I'm here to have fun. Fun is good.

Found the thread on Katawa Shoujo forum, didn't actually think anything was gonna be done until I clicked on the link to this forum that Mike Inel posted. I'm now quite interested in how this will turn out, especially since i'm studying psychology at the moment haha.

I saw a few posts on this on the KS forums after I finished the game. I looked at it, read some stuff and thought, "Huh, pretty neat idea. I'd play." and then pretty much forgot about it. And then tonight I saw a post on Reddit, "Mentaru Shoujo has begun to release character profiles! Opinions?" and I thought, mentaru sorta sounds like mental, and shouju like Katawa Shouju, and decided to check out if this was what I thought it was. This sounds like it has a large amount of potential. I don't really many talents that could help out greatly. I dabble in music production, but truthfully I suck at it. One thing though, if you ever needed is an editor for writing or whatever. I can't write at all, but I've spent a lot of my time reading, and I love to edit other's writing. If you ever need an editor, look no further. I hope to stay and hang around this forum, so probs see some of you later.

Checked the stats for my blog, saw a few click-throughs from this site to a post I made about KS (though the originating post itself is admin-only so I couldn't read it). This project sounds interesting! I'm really enjoying KS and was wondering if there would ever be a related game for mental issues, since that's more my personal experience.

Saw it posted on a certain vidya board. Didn't believe it was real at first, but some goggling proved me wrong, and I couldn't be happier.

Here is the link:

http://www.reddit.com/r/katawashoujo/comments/py8hy/mentaru_shoujo_has_begun_to_release_character/

And while you're at it, you could sign up on reddit (takes about a minute) and have a look at the various subreddits?
