all the site's canons are located under this board. feel free to browse and make one if you wish. we'd love you forever. we always need canons made, after all.

staff only, thank you very much.

practically everyone has a phone of some sort these days. have phone calls, text each other, or call the ringmaster then hang up. if it has to do with a phone, it goes here.

the fans just love us. they snap your pictures, send you notes, gifts, whatever. keeps all that nonsense here.

studies show that plotting his key to a forum's life. so plot your hearts away! you don't want to be to blame for wonderful carnival's death, do you? i didn't think so.

for the people who love those fancy plot pages with all those pretty colors and lyrics to songs. you know what i'm talking about. go nuts, people.

if you're like kitty and have one hundred characters and four million threads, you probably need one of these to keep you organized.

this is where the elites sleep, eat, manage everything, fuck, and occasionally come up with new acts. each elite has their own tent, in a big ring around the ringmaster's tent. any other carnie is not allowed in here unless specifically invited. so keep out or be punished!

this is where the performers sleep, eat, socialize, and commit do their explicit activities. other members of the carnival are not allowed, but some people still sneak over to provide their 'services'.

this is where the security eats, sleeps, and anything else they need to do in private. no one but security is allowed here, but sometimes they let other people in their area just for a bit of fun.

this is where the crew reside. they're the ones managing everything, so they try not to mix in with the rest of the carnie crowd when it comes to tents. their tents are at the edge of the carnival grounds, away from all the hubbub.

lions and tigers and bears, oh my! this is where all the acts that have to do with animals are performed. from the bird show to horse-back riders to lion tamers. everyone loves these. and we promise we're not cruel to our animals.

the highfliers are the gymnasts, acrobats and the trapeze artists. aerial silks spin through the air with people in tight-fitting clothing. it's magical to watch everyone defying gravity and death up in the air.

equilibristics is a blanket term for balancing acts. from jugglers to stilt walkers to unicycle riders, this is the show that keeps you gasping and cheering them on. the tightrope walkers and the plates spinners also have their show here. it's all flash and dazzle so try not to get too caught up in all the action!

the daredevil stunt acts always draw in big crowds. you want danger? you got it! fire eaters, sword swallowers and the guy riding a motorcycle through a ring of fire. who doesn't love that kind of stuff? the knife throwers are always fun to watch. better to enjoy someone else in danger than yourself, eh?

the zipper, the tilt-a-whirl, the mega-drop, the enterprise, the gravritron... the list is endless for all the rides in this area of the park. these are th rides that make you vomit and scream like a little girl. try not to make too much of a mess.

get your palm read and your future told here! sure, our fortune teller is a bit creepy, but she's amazingly accurate. beware though: she doesn't always give you a happy ending to your tale.

also known as the 'freaks of nature', this is where the human oddities of the carnival go on display. they associate witht eh freaks, since no one else will take them in. these guys are the 'born freaks' and the 'made freaks' and everyone just loves to hate this show.

the shrink and grow bakery. a little hole-in-the-wall kind of place where you can get the best cakes in the world. some say they're magic. other's say it's drugs. whatever they put in their specialty 'eat me' cakes really doesn't matter. all that matters is that they're damn good.

the fanciest cafe in all of wonderland, owned by an ex-carnie. it used to be an old mansion before the owner bought it and fixed it up. it has a very homey feel.their specialty is heart-shaped raspberry tarts. try one. they're delicious.

one of the only bars that lets carnie's in for free without them performing or having to fuck someone. originally called 'gretta's place', it was renamed years ago when the carnies first came to town, saying the bar was like 'their knight in shining armor'. the name stuck and the white knight is still looked down on, but it's the only safe place for carnie's to get drinks these days.

the queen's heart is the fanciest club in the city. they open at dusk and close at dawn, strictly fancy-dress. they're very particular about who they let in, and rarely do they let in carnies. you have to be rich, famous, or sleeping with one of the bouncers to get in here. it's worth it though, trust me.

absolutely absolem tattoo and smoke shop. they do everything that your parents would kill you over. get a pinup tattoo or an exotic piercing. get high while you're here. no one judges at absolem's, as long as you manage to pay for your body modifications.

the in-between part of town. it's boring, bland, and family-friendly. mostly. all the lawns are cut perfectly and green as grass can be. kids are often playing together on the sidewalks or in the yards. this is where most of the children are stolen from, so make sure your windows and doors are locked up tightly before you tuck your kiddies in.

part of downtown, most of the houses are shitty apartments or vandalized one-stories. there's a church or bar on every other corner, and there's a stabbing almost every other night. most carnies that are fired or decide to leave the carnival start life on there own here. but hell. no one said you had to stay.

talk about absolutely anything your heart desires here. need help choosing to make a new character? feel like displaying the first few chapters of your novel? got bored and decided to post pictures of your sheets? say and do whatever you wan here, darlings.

have to go away for the weekend? got grounded for two weeks? disappearing into the bahamas for a while? post here so us admins don't delete you while you're away!

ah, the graphics board. every site's gotta have one. post your graphic shop here so people can request or just post op a gallery for people to look at or use your work. rehost everything you find and don't steal! the flying monkeys that guard this board are always hungry.

fun and games for the entire family! enjoy playing classics like 'what are you listening to' and others. use it to get your post count up, or procrastinate on posting. just don't spam, okay? no one likes that.
