UPDATES: PLEASE READ THIS!!!

UPDATES:
  • The endgame event will be split in two: the victims plot will be posted Saturday June 24th, and the rescuers plot with all the spooky puzzles Marin is building will be posted Sunday June 25th. Despite these time discrepancies, the event will be taking place at midnight tonight in-world.

  • REGARDING RESCUERS: please keep in mind that rescuers have activity requirements in order to unlock clues. If you don't post regularly with them to your group thread, you will hold back your group from making progress. Please read THIS COMMENT from Marin about how the event will work.
    • To give you an idea: each section of the event will require each member posts at least once before the group can continue to the next section. This might not sound like a lot, but we anticipate that you'll want to go through about a dozen sections over the course of the week, to get the full impact of the event.

    • If this ends up becoming an issue, you can contact the mods for help, or we may pop in and inquire what's going on if we see a group thread that's stalled for a couple days.

    • If you're overwhelmed, don't be afraid to ask the mods to woodsnap your character and make them a victim instead. We also have a means by which to split large groups, which we will only do without your permission if the numbers reach 6+ (this will be a random event in these cases). We have some cool, spooky means by which to do so that would not only lighten your load, but also would be fun to play!

  • If your victim doesn't have a confirmed rescuer, we'll randomize someone to find them. No one's being left behind. If your rescuer doesn't have a group, then we will be randomizing them on the day of the event. If you do not want to be randomized, make your arrangements now. Please check THIS SPREADSHEET for the current groups. Make your plans either below or on the EVENT PLOTTING POST. Remember, groups can be as few as 2 people! Also, if at all possible, please have no more than five rescuees per group.

  • Graduation will be posted sometime late this afternoon because I have to make a bunch of not-fun maps!!!

  • Following the endgame plot's conclusion, we'll be making some more announcements about changes in Year 2 regarding mechanics and the game setting. We'll also try to give you firm dates on things like when we'll reveal the new cast list, when will we release TAs and club presidents, when holds will open, etc.

  • While we won't be hosting a plot calendar, there will be a post available in the near future for everyone to plan out any IC/OOC events they'd like to run in July.

  • If you plan on dropping a character over the summer, please let us know as soon as possible so we can replace their name on the cast list! It'd really help your mods out. ♥ You can keep playing them until the end of July even if you alert us of your intentions now. Next year, we're going to be tougher on inactive characters, so summer's a good time to think about what you can keep up with.

Sylla's running out as a solo rescue at first because that's just how she rolls but she can meet up with another rescuer group along the way!

Since she's a horrible person and likes to go it alone you can randomize her (or she can run into Dimi or someone? IDK SHE'S AN INDEPENDENT WOMAN WHO DOES THINGS HER WAY THESE ARE MY TROUBLES 🙁)

I OFC WOULD BE 100% A+ SUPERGREEN with Sylla meeting up with the Scooby Gang, if the rest of the Scooby Gang approves?

Like it would have to probably be late in the game for her to get over herself and her pride in I DONT NEED NO HELP but yes this is an option

JUST A HEADS UP. For Ana's rescuing group and Milo's (once I figure his out), I am working Sunday. I WILL tag once I get off though, so don't worry! I just wanted everyone to know so maybe I don't go first?

SUGGESTED FINAL GROUPS v.1

[personal profile] quinning 2017-06-24 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
ALRIGHT, CREW. WE'RE DOWN TO THE WIRE SO BELOW IS A SUGGESTED GROUP LIST with all groupless rescuers & victims assigned to groups.

Rin, Katie, and I suggested groups for: Jeremiah, Isabelle, Sybilla, Tabitha, Joanna, Antonia, Isaiah, Milo, Bianca, Dominic, Fern, Regan, and William. Find them in THE SPREADSHEET or click on the image below:


IF YOU HAVE A CHANGE TO MAKE, DISCUSS IT IN THIS THREAD. Keep in mind that lists are finalized tonight so you should fix any issues you find ASAP!

(Once I post this comment I'll email it to every player whose character was previously unassigned so they know they should weigh in!)
Edited (this heavily-formatted comment is meant to start a discussion so we can finalize everything and save the mods some time/effort/brain. 💜) 2017-06-24 16:19 (UTC)

Thank you for doing this. ♥ Essie's group may be going slower due to availability/timezone spread so depending on how rescuing works, it might be better to keep them at 4.

(I might just reply to all comments like this to help people communicate faster/easier, we'll see)

(A) We could move Isabelle to The Babysitter's Club if you guys want to keep it at 4; they're sophomore-powered.
(B) We could also move her to Mama Bears because it's Ebonhide-heavy.

I moved Isabelle over to The Babysitter's Club after all because Alex and Cheryl had already discussed Robin saving Fern, which left TBC with only 2 to rescue.

So in Sybilla's case does this mean that she could be solo the whole time, but someone else would have to rescue Antonia?

I should've been more clear

She'll be heading out alone because it's more IC that way and she's ridiculously prideful and thinks she can do it solo, buuuuuut she'll get roped up into a group along the way and progress from there as part of the group
