State of the Game 2
M O D U P D A T E |
Hello Savrites! We had originally intended this to be a normal mod update type of post, but we decided to do a State of The Game update instead. Mostly to let you know what's going on, where we're going, and where we'd like to end up. First, let's talk about apps! As per the calendar, applications will be opening up again on October 16th. We have changed some of the rules regarding apps to (hopefully) make it easier on both new and old players as well as the mods. They are reflected on the individual pages, but here is a summary: ☄ A reserve is now required for all applications. The application cap will be set to 15 applications for new players and 15 applications for current players. This means we will have a total of 30 app slots open during October. Whichever slots are not filled will then be opened as a "free for all" on the last day of the cycle (October 22nd). Two Page Updates: Mini Games & Jobs TIMELINE: October - Mini Colony * see info below November - Ship Month December - Midway Hub January - Midway Hub February - Arc II Thisavrou Plot Specific Sign Ups Are Now Closed In October the ship will be touching down on the Runoff's Mini Colony. This is a mecha of trade and commerce, which is something we want to do a little bit of world building with. There are three sections below that players should participate in. The first is a sign up for location specific plot; take a look at the linked map and respond with your character's name and the corresponding number. Once all the numbers have been taken, we'll double them over for anyone else that signs up. The second section is to 'create a business'; in this section players can build a business and then NPC it during the event. The third is suggest something that occurs on the mini colony; you list it and if it fits, we'll approve it. All of this stuff will be built into the event logs when they come up. We'd really like our players' input. If anyone has questions about the upcoming event(s), Arc II, or anything else, let us know below. Thank you all for being amazing players. |

A cosmic scrap yard sounds fantastic, I'm ngl. It would be possible for them to find stuff from all over, any universe/canon/world.
As for your rules, we trust you with this. If a player gets a weapon you can have it broken or not, though broken fits the scrap yard. Characters on the ship already have weapons/powers, so we aren't too strict on that. You can still do the mod approval thing, if you need to. Just let us know if we'd need to do that for you somewhere or at any point. The size of the items can vary, and you can limit it at your discretion, just stuff that can fit on the ship would work best.
We're excited to see what you do with this and personally, I would be interested in this for my characters, too. You could also do an ooc post that is linked to any log or open post you might do so that players can oocly sign up for stuff as a way to monitor how much threading you get, so you aren't bogged down.
Let me know if you have other questions!

Thank you!!!!! I will go get this written up into a proper form and posted for your review.
I do have one follow up question. Should we stick to one business per player? Or can we offer secondary suggestions that maybe have product but can run handwave on their own?

And in my flailing I forgot to mention I would be interested in this for my characters, too. You could also do an ooc post that is linked to any log or open post you might do so that players can oocly sign up for stuff as a way to monitor how much threading you get, so you aren't bogged down.
Yes! Please come visit the scrap yard!! And thank you for the idea about the OOC post. I will definitely leverage this to help things run smoothly.
