👤 Interviews – 2023 Edition 👤
After some wait I’ve decided to bring back the old Interviews group but in a slightly different format. The old one was an interview with the direct creators / users of the site and we discussed their work, characters and some general questions also, this time we would be conducting an interview on the basis of our characters / self-inserts introducing and talking about themselves in the context of trying to welcome them to the audience and the Stick Nodes Universe. It sounds sort of weird and puts an odd change on how things would run but a good way to think of it is, your character, the person who you choose to represent you in the SNU like I just mentioned is something to represent you, not replace you. If you should choose to act more on behalf of your characters, relate their lives and stories to the interview and their depiction in the SNU then you can but it’s important to remember that we are interviewing you but in the visual style of your character / self-insert.
🫤 To summarise 🤨
Last time we interviewed each person directly and that was it, this time we are interviewing each person directly but moreso in the style of setup, that means we are interviewing their self-inserts / characters in the Stick Nodes Universe.
❕ Example ❕
Rather than perhaps me myself personally being interviewed and getting the answers directly in reference to me and my life, instead it may be more based around my character Lemon’s life but with the behaviour and talking-style similar or the same to that of my own. Not only does this preserve one’s own privacy but it also welcomes their characters to the SNU in a way that also establishes them personally.

As it stands right now I’m just prepping the assets I’ll need for the video side of things along with the initial process of this so when I start taking requests we can keep firing out interviews at a good rate for the first season.
To help give context, essentially I want to do actual interviews here, do like 8 or a few more for the first season then animate each one in a unique and fun way this way we get some visual coverage for the SNU and of course an introduction into the lives of each of your counterpart fictional OC’s, their projects etc.
The way projects and stickfigures remakes etc and all this will work within the SNU is that they are interpreted as various forms of media or other physical assets usually utilised for entertainment purposes with a few exceptions.
Example
Me myself irl am currently working on the interview group to actually interview you guys and so this would translate into my character Lemon interviewing you guys and having it be either a sort of found footage set of recordings or as part of a show SNU counterpart Lemon would host etc.
Another example
Let’s say you make a weapon Stickfigure, this would translate into the SNU as a created asset in more of a blueprint form thing in which then should it be deemed acceptable can in fact be processed and made into an actual weapon within the physical world of the SNU. There are more details to this such as the SN app kind of being a thing within the SNU just in a different format almost like a holographic iron-man style interface where people can create essentially anything from rough shapes and by utilising SNU science and whatnot.
It can get messy but once fully explained and visual context provided you’ll know..

🗣️FAQ ( Frequently Asked Questions ) 🫤
1. If I’ve been interviewed in the past group, can I be interviewed again?
Yes, you can
2. Should I follow everything in the group description?
It’s more that you should know what the project is aiming to achieve, confirming the terms of agreement once your interview begins it’s preparatory period and amongst this preparatory period you also follow the template and necessary detailing before you interview begins properly.
3. How will the process work, step-by-step?
First off you would ask for an interview, I would either agree straight away or need to give it some more thought thus putting it into consideration for mods / judges and myself to approve or put on a potential interviews waiting list. Going forward with an interview upon approval from myself would mean you can begin the preparatory period and following the template, confirming the terms of agreement first. Once all detailing has been handed to whoever is hosting the interview, myself likely then I will get back to you with the questions and the interview may begin. Once completed and all questions are answered one way or another we can then mark it under completed in which then either the video will be worked on or if you are not making an appearance in the SNU, it will not.
4. If I’ve been interviewed, can I have a do-over?
Generally no but given the decision is agreed upon you may have a chance at a do-over.

🗓️ Seasons and interview disclosure agreement 📜
As it stands right now it will not be possible to conduct, animate, edit and publish interviews regularly so each interview will be done on a basis of voting, decision-making by mods and admin, first come-first serve and finally notoriety and other influencing factors like if said individual has been interviewed in the past or not or for however long they’ve even been on the site..
There will be 8 interviews per season and a break period in-between where we might still conduct interviews but not animate them at least not at any foreseeable point in the near future at the time of conducting the interview. It will likely be that we will take some of our favourites and either revamp the interviews or just animate it as regularly intended for any other.
Before commencing any interview the person would need to confirm either having their character apart of the SNU or not and depending on whether they are or are not, will agree to making an appearance animated in an episode of interviews. If the user intends to take part in an interview but has not agreed to said terms then no interview will take place. Please refer to the terms of agreement below the line as a point of reference ⬇️
‘ I agree that should my character / self-insert make an appearance in the Official Stick Nodes Universe my interview and various other detailings about my character will be animated and included within an episode of Interviews. If I, nor my character should appear in the SNU then it is to my understanding I will not be included in an episode of interviews whatsoever. I also understand that any conditions to be met for an interview generally within reason is to be completed fully before or after an interview depending on what is asked.‘
The statement above refers to the terms of agreement with these interviews and is to be agreed upon in an interview beforehand during the preparation period.

📋 Preparatory period / pre-interview setup 📝
In order to go forward with any interviews each individual must be willing to provide a list of things that will help get some background on what can be discussed, what cannot, the actual character ( Stickfigure) that will be used and likely some small other tidbits to assist the process.
A detailed list will now be provided as to what you will need to provide before an interview ⬇️
– OC / character to be used as the self-insert / character of choice to represent you and of course the character themself
– What projects ( Series, films, animations, groups or other projects and practices ) can be referenced and interpreted in the interview and the SNU alike.
– How you intend to be talking, is it your character that will be answering, you or both?Not so detailed but hey for now that’s all we really need laid out in this format roughly, not got to be followed perfectly so long as you fulfil the quota of what’s being asked of you. ⬇️
📋 Template 📋
Character name / your username:
Here you would use the name you want to be known by, for me for example it would be Tastylemon16 not Mr Lemon, Ludwig J Lemon or anything else.
Your OC / Character link:
Here you will provide the link to the Stickfigure of your character that will be used.
What details of what projects you are actually taking on that you want referenced in the SNU
This is a tricky one as it can vary depending on how you want it interpreted. Let’s say I wanted to discuss the log entry group as something my self-insert / character Lemon wanted to discuss, I might reference it as either a unofficial news source, show on television within the SNU, newspaper or article etc. If you had a series you’d be working on rather than it being canonical to SNU events it could either be canonical to your character’s life and story given it’s relevant or either be a literal series you see on TV but of course within the SNU or another universe ideally the one your character derived from.
*phew*
Who you are talking as:
You yourself, your character or both in varying portions, you could be talking as yourself but any events and literal parts to your characters life would be the talk if it’s anything personal rather than that of your own real life.

👤 Roles and members of the group 👥
Admin
Big boys, the head honcho of the group, basically they just manage what goes on as an overarching power to the whole project managing everything.
Mods
These guys can either serve as the judges and secondary power within the group that could conduct interviews themselves and also be animated or are there to judge who gets what vote to be interviewed etc.
This role is subject to change so bare with me here..Members
Standard boys, the people who hang around here either waiting for an interview or something else like just support
Interviewees, Completed / uncompleted
These guys are either people who have been interviewed or are going to be interviewed, they will be noted in the group description.
👀 Rules 👀
1. No excessive or really any profound swearing in any interview
2. No NSFW or lewd reference in really anyway, the only way would be discreetly as a joke
3. No asking for interviews more than once especially if you are already listed under uncompleted
4. One interview per person, not two interviews for two characters or anything like that
5. No spamming or irrelevant group posting
6. No excessive application for being a judge / mod or admin
7. Apply to the terms of conditions if you are being interviewedRules are subject to change.

Just wanted to say that once I post something here letting you guys know things are ready to go an operational, until then we are still under development and currently no requests etc are being taken etc.
Also going to be making some changes to make the group description easier and shorter and an FAQ section available.
