Hey guys, your resident mods here with a... not quite a full-out discussion post, but we'd like to get some ideas and points of note out there and your feedback on the matter. Particularly involving the latest plot and currently running plotlines. There have been a few discussions on plurk, but we'd like to have something more formal to make sure everyone has the opportunity to read and get their input on things that'll affect them.

There's a few things we'd like to touch upon with this post, the main points revolving around current/past/future plots and how we as mods can make things more fun for you in the way we handle them. Also on our agenda are things like State of the Game, God Functions, Player Accessibility, and probably more. To keep things organized, we'll be using header comments to cover specific topics and linking them in the post for easy navigation, so once you see a topic linked here, feel free to jump right to it.

CURRENT PLOTS: Moving HQ | Bitey Dogs | Weres


Week of my Life Posts | State of the Game | Affecting the Gods | Nature

Hello Thusia, it is me. Thusia, have you ever thought to yourself, "My character is probably the sort of person who would want to be involved in helping other people and doing useful society things, but I have other plots going on and I am busy IRL and I am more interested in playing other things that appeal to me more as a player and I am too shy to shove my character out into the spotlight of a big plot and etc. etc."

Thusia, if you have thought this, I just want you to know that I think that is totally valid and cool and honestly, sometimes world plot is just not what you want to play out explicitly, and you shouldn't have to spend tons of time playing out things explicitly that don't really interest you.

So purpose number one of this post is this: if you want to handwave your character doing anything whatsoever - giving sacrifices to Eizon or Selyir, offering to help grow some vines for our (future) shiny new generator, doing literally anything else that I haven't thought of yet, doing something completely unrelated to those plans, doing something actively against those plans, seriously I am so cool with anything - anyway, if you want your character to participate or think your character ICly would participate but don't want to spend a ton of time threading it out, please just fill out the short form here. It's very short for real.

And if there are any questions you think are boring or whatever you can just not answer them. It can just say something like, I think my character would really want to help in setting up the portal for people lost in the jungle, but I don't think they would want to help Eizon because he's a huge butthead. Or maybe something like, my character has a little bit of tech savvy, so maybe when the generator is made they can help get it up and running.

Mostly the point of this is so that we can get a gauge on how many characters are actively doing such things? So then ICly we can figure out how fast things are moving, what is going to work and not work, etc. ALSO I would like for this to be a general plotting post about the world things happening. So I have a little survey which you can fill out if you like. I'm really excited about this so far and I think it could be pretty cool, but I just would like to make it so that absolutely anybody who wants to be involved can be, even if they are like, lol whos yukari tho. So yeah.





By the way, do you want to be my friend? I want to be your friend, Thusia, so you can be my friend on plurk at NECROFANTASIA. Here I'll make it a link. NECROFANTASIA. Boom.

Just collecting the links to the plurks together so the discussion is easier to follow for those who didn't check in with them right away. For plotspoilerish reasons, these plurks are privated to only god players and people who requested to be added to the discussion in the announcements and reminders, so apologies to others who may be curious.

If you requested to be added before the plurks went up at 3 PST yesterday and don't see them on your timeline, get in contact with Aviy and she will give you temp access to the mod plurk.

Sup Thusia! Let's talk about Thusia.

The game's been a bit slow lately and while I know a heavy part of that's due to the September back-to-classes crunch and other RL gremlins punching people in the face, it seems like we could use a talk about what we can do to restart/boost interest for everyone, as well as talk about any other gamestuff we might like to bring up/have bee thinking of bringing up for a while, no matter how big or small.

COMMUNITY TALK, LET'S GO

((I'm gonna make a couple of top level comments for specific stuff so stand by!!1)) DONE, FIRE AWAY
