(Sign ups are now closed... As we let the greatest dating event begin!)

The contestants are awoken in rooms not at all similar to their own. Dark, baren and completely devoid of anything except a single light above them so they can see the rest of the drole room. A perfect cube with barely any room for them to move around. A bed sits to the side of them, but its too small to even sleep on. Perhaps it was prepared for something else. No matter. A PA system turns on when everyone is awake, a voice comes from it which gives... deja vu.

"Welcome. To Shadow's Dating Event, the most exciting event you've ever been invited to! I am Shadow, your illustrious host, and you are my contestants." The voice seemed to have a sense of humour to it, but at the same time it seemed somewhat threatening. "I'm sure any of you who've been here before know the rules, but I'll explain them for the good of you all." The voice was heard to clear its throat and crumple some paper.

"They're simple, really. You are being matched up with a randomly selected partner and with this partner you must engage in romantic chitchat! Extremely simple, yes? Failure to follow this rule will result in immediate termination from the program. Basically, you die." The voice on the other side of the PA chuckled and made one last statement. "You may be wondering, 'Exactly why am I here?' And I will answer that! Contestants were chosen forcibly, and whoever looked at the poster is eligble for a spot in the wonderful Dating Event. With that out of the way, I will now proceed to list who is being partnered with who! But first, I'll need you all to write your names on the piece of paper provided."

A slip of paper and a pen falls out of the ceiling in front of all the contestants. A slot opens on the wall, and as soon as they are finished writing down their names they are to place the paper in there.
