HMD Meme #1 : It's a long way forward, so trust in me

How are we all doing... ?

Leave a comment with your name and who you play below and comment on others!

A few things to consider before posting:

• We will be watching the post to make sure everything goes alright. We trust our players! But it's still good to keep an eye on things.
• Anon commenting is off. If you'd like to leave an anon comment for the mods, we have a page for that!. Individual HMDs for players will have to be used if you wish to anon contact a player directly. Ignore that, apparently anon commenting is on. Sorry about that.
• Give critique, and do not leave nasty comments. This is pretty self explanatory.

In regards to things for the mods specifically:
We are aware a huge load of suggestions, comments and concerns were given to us recently. Naturally we will still have a space for hmd commenting here but keep in mind that we are diligently working things. Key points that came out of the lengthy discussion are as follows -

• No events save for intro logs until April. This will gives mods time to rework plots and deal with changes, and give players more chances for castle pushes before things ramp up again.
• Monthly anon plurks along with more consistent CR/HMD memes
• Player run plots (like Valentines Day) can still happen along side any castle clearing that happens
• Mod apps will be opening soon. We're down to a three mod team right now, and while we're three mods that absolutely love this game, our players and giving everything we can to the game it has become something that certainly needs a bigger team than just that. (Panda is currently drowning in con-prep so she hasn't been fully brought aboard as a moderator yet and we would still love to have further help)
• Apps will be closed until April 1st
• The Starscourge plot has not been retconned, however player-plot related powers have managed to push quite a bit of it back meaning that in the coming weeks the castle will be returning to "normal".
• General mod work (list keeping in particular) will be more regular and consistent.
• AC will be revisited and the poll that was taken last time will be taken in to further consideration. While we would have liked to keep ourselves as a completely no-AC game it's clear that for the sake of inactive players and the canon/CR-mates that it affects there needs to be some method of keeping track of who is and isn't playing. We will do our best to keep things as low stress as possible, though, while still having something implemented.
• Any future plots dealing with long-reaching/debilitating/etc consequences for characters (such as the Starscourge plot) will be slower to build up and likely have a sign up of some sort attached in order to make it a more voluntary choice on the part of the players.
• Plotting/information posts for future events will be moved to the ooc comm for easier accessibility.
• The calendar will be updated every three months with important dates/events more consistently.
• A listing for permissions posts will be added to the information on the taken page come the next app round, and a message will go out to players once the links for current taken characters has been added to the coding to get page html for adding. This will hopefully make permissions posts easier to find for those who may miss players discussing it elsewhere.
• The discussion on the first anon plurk was some 1000 comments long so chances are something else was mentioned that is being worked on, but if you are concerned we missed a key point or have any other ideas you are more than welcome to toss them here at our HMD comment!

Thank you for your time and consideration. Enjoy your HMD discussions.

CR Meme 10: Causing so much trouble, see my mischief double!

[solravehmods]

♥ CR MEME ♥

Y'all know the drill on how these things work; as a few points of interest, consider;

-February's Intro: Let the light come crystalize
-February's current events: None!
The game is taking two months off from structured events to allow for castle pushes, reworking of certain plots and giving mods a chance to deal with implemented changes and suggestions from our players! Please keep that in mind when plotting with your fellow castle-mates.

<b>Player Name:</b> <br /><b>Contact:</b> <br /><b>Character Name:</b> <br /><b>Canon:</b> <br /><b>Description:</b> (Tell us about your character! Brief is best, a few sentences or a short paragraph oughta do the trick.) <br /><b>What You're Looking For:</b> (Try to be specific if possible! Tossing out a general "ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING" is fine if you can't think of something in particular, but it's even better if you have a vague idea of what you're looking for in terms of developing your character. Someone might have just the answer to your CR blues!) <br /><b>What You're Not:</b> (Types of CR that you're not in the market for right now.) <br /><b>Plans:</b> (What's your character up to this month? Next month? Have a plot you wanna share with the class early? Looking for participants in a future open log? HAVE AT) <br /><b>Other:</b> (Other stuff. Also I know y'all are just gonna put gifs here go for it you dirty memers)
