So, in light of the AC on the way later tonight that we should have something to help out. Which meant I went into the "meme" tag to find what I was looking for, and then also stumbled across a friending meme. Thus, this post evolved from a FIND A THREAD post to a SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME OOC SOCIAL THING.

In this little number we're graced by two displays of memes...

We've got: THE FIND A THREAD MEME

How to participate:


Comment to this post with the name with any character(s) of yours that you want or need to find a thread for! And if you have a certain scene or setting you'd like to try, request that!

Or you can see if there's a request that you'd like to get in on, comment to their post and figure out the details etc.!

This is a good opportunity to thread with a player or character you never have before and a way to get some activity for the AC! \o/


And the FRIENDING MEME

Copy and paste the following, and replace the applicable information...and have fun!



All information is, of course, optional.

Week Change - Week 29


The Week in Review


At last the fog that has been choking the streets of Paixao has dissipated, though many already had broken out of it through sheer will and the unbreakable connections of their friends and loved ones. Further beyond the floors of Castle Oblivion, the outsiders continued their way through the floor resembling Spira, some discovering clues - but will they know what to do with them? Others simply enjoyed Paixao as a new place to create bonds, spreading out across the full city in a wild game of tag.


New Characters


Familiar and new faces! Welcome: [livejournal.com profile] bullseying, [livejournal.com profile] manusexosus, [livejournal.com profile] melodyofwater, [livejournal.com profile] masterfulflames, [livejournal.com profile] green_pizzicato, [livejournal.com profile] beats_in_time, and [livejournal.com profile] bratinahat!

Don't forget about our friends add/remove list.


Weather


Welcome back to clear nights in Paixao.


Announcements


Gah, a day late. Sorry about that folks. A pointed out, the fog-plot is officially done. Characters that were under the influence have either broken it themselves or received the cure that Team Science whipped together, and the fog itself has finally dissipated.

We would still love opinions from anyone here concerning overall plot function of the game. Spira logs have been progressing, but we're still really hoping to see characters arrive in Zanarkand before the next week change. You can find the Spira Primer here.

If you have any questions just ask us! We only bite and/or maim each other on the mod team. Hayley is the go-to mod in regards to Spira and moving through Zanarkand, but the rest of us still can offer help, or whatever anyone may need. Any venue, whether it be IM, LJ message, email... we're here for you guys.

The next week change will be March 13th.

ACTIVITY

CHECK


Hey dudes! It's that time again! Activity Check time! You have until January 15th to reply. If you are on hiatus, please drop us a line on the sidebar link, otherwise we'll miss you.

50% of your characters need SOME kind of first person activity to pass this check. If you have an uneven amount of characters, round up. If you only have one character, and you have good reason for why they haven't/can't post, then fair enough. Let us know, and it probably won't be a problem.

*Just to make it clear, comments on a mb entry/other journals count, as well as PIMP convos.*

Reply with your character name, their journal, a link to their latest post, and the date of that post.

Then, to make it easy, just copy and paste a URL to some first person activity and note the date. (Livejournal will automatically make it a link.) It's easy, and we won't bite, I promise! <3

For example:

Blue ([livejournal.com profile] halvedhowl) - January 4th

Phew! That was a lot of html. So, you all may or may not be aware that we do the tags in the sidebar manually, because otherwise that cloud would have characters from four years ago that aren't here anymore and it'd be a pain. Yes, we could delete all those tags, but you never know how useful something is til it's gone (and trust me when I say a lot of us have needed those old, old tags).

Anyway, the RPG and the MB comms are updated. If you didn't have a tag on the MB before, you do now, since it's the same list from the RPG comm. Now, if you don't have a tag at all please comment. It took me awhile to find just the errors that were messing up the entire html for those that saw it, so. Don't worry about tagging MB posts unless you want to. It is useful, but we don't check it for AC. I still have no idea when they mysteriously emerged.

Also, the friends add/remove, taken characters, and contact info are all up-to-date. They generally get done pretty quick after new apps come in, but I'm posting handy text areas of the add/remove list for you all. One day we will actually shave the thing down, but hey, it doesn't overload the admin console yet 8D

FRIEND ADD


FRIEND REMOVE (characters dropped "recently")


There has to be errors. There has to be. We catch things every now and then but even combing through it we still miss things, so if you happen to catch anything, again, please comment. Especially if someone has a character banned that shouldn't be sorry about the Ice Queen that one time, Shannon, really.

It's alright if you have multiple characters to only keep one flist up-to-date. Just have someone so you can check through and act from there.

Thaaaaat is all, I believe.


.....EXPLORE SPIRA! ...please?

Week 24


New Characters


Blue, Mutsumi Saburo, Remus Lupin, Snow, Woody Pride.



Plot Announcements


So, Mr. Vague Praetoris has been vague, but the 'efforts' of him and his staff are now showing throughout the city. On the doors of the various Paixao businesses, you will find signs firmly adhered, with the words:


NO SERVICE TO THOSE OF LOW MORALITY
INAPPROPRIATE DRESS IS DISALLOWED


The 'inappropriate dress' is the easiest interpretable part, though sucks, because they're strict. Yes. The natives of Paixao are refusing business to those who are showing what they consider a fair amount of skin (and to them, women who are even showing their ankles are considered having low morality).

However, there are exceptions to this. The natives of the Vanaheim area aren't doing well with abiding to this. Their signs are painted over or torn down as best as they can be. Specifically, this encompasses: Carta Para Ti, Carta Para Ti Orphanages, Iriela Apartments (I and II, as both are gypsy owned, location aside), The Cheap Prayer, The Glass Bonsai, Lady of Lords Soup Kitchen, Haja o Que Houver, Actua Are (F3 only), Aiches Memorial Hospital, and Cafe Ersesat (H4 and F6 only).

Foreigner-owned businesses have signs on their doors as well. While the natives have been spoken to about the change, Praetoris' staff avoided such discussions. You folks will have to get rid of your own signs, if you desire it. The gypsies will happily let you borrow their paint or draw funny faces on them for free.

...in addition to these changes, those who frequent the gates (or new arrivals) will notice that at each gate there is a portrait of your new prissy asshole mayor hung above the counters.

...Vanaheim's is covered in graffiti.

Yeah.

Next week change is September 19th!

You know how much I love you guys, right? I love you guys. You’ve all been brilliant. Me, however? I need a break from roleplaying. And not just a hiatus-induced break, but a complete break. And this… this is never something I thought I’d do, which is kind of why it needs to be done.

I’m dropping. Everyone - for now (SORRY NOT FOREVER SORRY ABOUT THAT <3 Jen). I know this is will be horrifying for some characters more than others, and I’m really sorry for that, but I have to go all the way with this.

…mostly. It’s not entirely all the way. I’m still going to mod and NPC folk, so you’ll see me around.

Some of you kind of knew this was coming at least, from some of what I was saying the past few days. There's a bit more to it, but not gonna weigh that down here. I should be back around AIM in a couple of days.

On the NPC note, I really will get election stuff up XD;;

*cough* So. Yeah.






............ *stares down* Well. There's some odd timing. Uh. IDEK.
 
 
02 May 2010 @ 08:11 pm
Well, week change will go up at some point tonight, hearts to Hayley. Activity Check is about a week again, and so, here we have

THE THREAD WITH SOMEONE NEW MEME~!

How to participate:

Comment to this post with the name with any character(s) of yours that you want or need to find a thread for! And if you have a certain scene or setting you'd like to try, request that!

Or you can see if there's a request that you'd like to get in on, comment to their post and figure out the details etc.!

*yawn* Spish here. I've begun to overhaul the wiki. Things like 'other worlds', 'beastiary' (though the lumen page likely has to be read over, as it was just c/p from the extensive info lolol), and 'current events' have been edited. A 'Travel' page was added in the other worlds category which was basically just putting the pictures Jen so handily sketched out for us into a place we'll be able to find more easily again for reference.

I finally figured for the history category we can divide it by weeks, and everything else before the week system will go on its own page. If you feel like doing busy work, updating the history per week would be very helpful.

Is there any sort of page you guys would like to see? Anything to have in a handy place? IDK. I'd like to make it more handy to folk in whatever way possible. *shrug* So any suggestions are welcome!

There's probably something else, but I have not slept yet, and so I am going to bed.

Oh, and also, one more thing. As you've probably been able to tell, Rosemary officially announced the campaigning for mayor as a go. Elections will be held at the beginning of week 21. In order to run for mayor and to vote, characters must have a certificate of citizenship, given to players after their characters' form has been filled out (linked on Rosemary's recent MB post).

Although I personally would find it kind of amusing if a character tried to forge it. I don't know who would, but. Lolz.
 
 
21 March 2010 @ 03:53 pm
I think I checked through all the hiatuses and whatnot - do remember we have a shiny post on the sidebar if you are going on hiatus; please let us know!

So we've only got one category this time around. Folks who didn't respond to the post and are inactive. I'll be sending out an email to each of you shortly.


Aeris Gainsborough ([livejournal.com profile] cetra_soul)
Anise Tatlin ([livejournal.com profile] marionettetamer)
Asch ([livejournal.com profile] blameluke)
Neirenn ([livejournal.com profile] blackwatermage)

Sapphire ([livejournal.com profile] noblestrike)
Shoaneb Culu ([livejournal.com profile] force_sight_gal)


If you are active and I missed it, it's likely a case of an untagged post, so remember that's important too.

Posts go up months between the 7th and 9th of the month. If you track the 'activity check' tag, you'll get notifications for when it's up!

ACTIVITY

CHECK


It's that time again. You'll have until March 15th.

%50 of your characters need SOME kind of first person activity to pass this check. If you have an uneven amount of characters, round up. If you only have one character, and you have good reason for why they haven't/can't post, then fair enough. Let us know, and it probably won't be a problem.

*Just to make it clear, comments on a mb entry/other journals count, as well as PIMP convos.*

Reply with your character name, their journal, a link to their latest post, and the date of that post.

Then, to make it easy, just copy and paste a URL to some first person activity and note the date. (Livejournal will automatically make it a link.)

For example:

Kairi ([livejournal.com profile] myfearsmylies) - March 8th

As promised, Paixao is beginning to finally open its arms to their mountain of guests and properly accept them, offering citizenship. Which really doesn't give people much other than the ability to run for mayor, have voting rights, ...and cost of living goes down |D The latter being nice really only to the folk who are living in richer parts of the city, but still, it's shiny stuff. I mean really. BUT THAT IS NOT THE POINT.

There will be an MB post here announcing the office opened, followed by a post on the RP comm here to go through the process. It'll likely be very of a deal unless you're someone who's a brat like Timon :D You do not have to post to the RP thread, but you do need to fill out the form regardless.

There is a link on the RP thread (or will be once I post it) that leads to a google doc form. This is the form in question. Fill this out and we will - quite literally - get back to you with a certificate for your character :D

ALSO. While I'm here, I might as well put out a reminder that the ACTIVITY CHECK ends February 15th. Don't forget to post!

Week Change - Week 18


The Week in Review

After the discovery of the newest world, a surge of newcomers have filed into Paixao's gates, some decidedly good, others... quite evil, to say the least (you know who you are). Shady deals and unlikely meetings are abound as another outing into Halloween/Christmas Town is planned.


New Characters


Wow we've got... quite a lot for us being added in! Welcome to familiar faces, as well as all the new!

Weather


Paixao: Thunderstorms, "shockingly" enough.
Destiny Islands: Permasunny.
Halloween Town: Creepy.
Christmas Town: Snow.


Announcements


Pretty quiet this week, sorry 'bout that folks! The Halloween/Christmas town information is still back on the previous change's thread, especially for our newer folk who may be curious.

There are also elves hard at work around Christmas Town, who may or may not coerce people into helping them.

Other than that, that's all for now!
