Please note: each player is limited to one plot for the first 2 hours. (See HERE for what time that would be for you.) After that, the only limit is one plot per character. If a slot is not taken on the day of the event, you may ask to take it with your character, regardless of whether or not they already have a slot.

Some quick house-cleaning notes!
  • Hopefully neither of them mind me talking about it in a mod post, but Callie and Sara will be on hiatus for the indefinite future. Callie's recovery from surgery is taking longer than she expected, and Sara is dealing with a lot of RL stress, but both of them miss Gooseberry and hope to back soon! Unfortunately, they also had to drop some characters, but Vee, Ana, Carolina, Ree and Saira are still part of the game, so yay :)

  • Some context for how mimic events will work, so you can start planning ahead. All of the mimic plots will take place on Feb 3, during the snow-in at the lodge.
    • We will be choosing a petition sometime in the next couple of days. As with past petitions, we'll likely reveal who got it on the day of the event, but we'll give you all the detail you need to react to it.

    • You can still submit a new mimic event until the end of Feb 1. Please remember that these are brief interactions that should last no more than a minute. On the snow-in IC/OOC, we expect most people will post reacting like it was something that just happened; however, you will also be allowed to write a prose description of what happened, so long as the incident doesn't turn into a full-blown scene. (i.e. You should fit the whole interaction in one tag. You can coordinate with another player on it, but please resist doing too much back-and-forth RP with the mimic.)

    • If this request seems confusing/vague, it's because we have rules on how the mimics should be handled and what their motivations are, and to reveal them to you right now would be spoilery. So please do us a favour and keep it brief. We promise there will be more opportunities for writing mimic chaos in the future! :)

  • We'll have instructions about sixth characters later. Please just sit tight for this week!!!!

  • And I wanted to remind new players about our OOC chatter posts, the place to go any time you want to talk about the game or random off-topic nonsense. You'll always find the latest chatter post stickied on top of the [community profile] goose_ooc front page. (We make a new one whenever the old post is too full of shitposting.) We're on Chatter Post #11 now. Track the post if you hate your inbox but love jorts.
