OOC: IJ DOWNTIME PARTY

Hello, Gooseberry High!

According to the InsaneJournal Facebook, we're looking at a site downtime that will last at least for the rest of the day, and possibly longer. EDIT: UNTIL FUCKING FRIDAY so prepare yourselves for a week of memes ._.

Cheryl has kindly suggested that we can provide the IC reasoning of "Larke and O'Hare were trying to understand the journals and accidentally broke them" for why no one posted anything for ~2 days (I KNOW, I KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT EITHER), so for IC reasons, we can say that the journals temporarily turned into non-magical journals and you terrible children just had to pay attention in class and hike to talk to each other. :(

Until the site comes back up, you can all feel free to use this post for OOC discussion/plotting/complaining. For my sanity, please resist the urge to comment on the other posts in these comms, because Dreamwidth is supposed to just exist as backup for the game (lmao i obviously haven't done backups for a week, sorry). You can post without signing in if you don't wish to register a DW account at this time, but there's no invite codes, so HEY WHY NOT.

Other news bits:
  • Activity Check will be delayed for at least 24 hours after the site comes back. Of our active players, the only people who haven't completed AC yet are Cheryl, Josie, Roz and... Marin... so FYI Cheryl, Josie and Roz, you will not get kicked out of the game. We're still debating Marin's fate.

  • We're working on the March plot calendar but honestly there's a chance that after work today Meggie and I are just going to get drunk and whine a lot so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ We will do our best to give you all some kind of advance notice about when it'll be posted!

  • SCENE/LOG REQUESTS Here!

  • DAY 1: Keep entertained on the Crackship Meme!

  • DAY 2: Darkest Timeline Meme!

  • DAY 3: Headcanon Meme!

  • DAY 4: "Characters you almost made" Meme!

  • DAY 5: Emergency Grotto Party!

  • DAY 6: Veritaserum and NEW OOC POST!

  • DAY 7: March plot calendar preview!

Marin & Meggie

- force players to actually pin down their characters' LARP and/or D&D characters

she suggests, as someone with no characters in LARP or D&D! (casey doesn't count but if this happens maybe i'll write something about his DM style.)

(Ivy's D&D character, by the way, is basically Alice in Wonderland. She's a half-elf warlock named Ilfrin Underfoot who fell into the Feywild when she was a little girl and had to grow up avoiding monsters and Archfey. A fairy-king took a liking to her and granted her magic powers to help her brave the wilds. She became his champion and eventually he sent her back to the Material Plane to find his magic rings, which had been stolen by an interloping mortal. She only spent eight years in the Feywild, but when she returned to the material plane she found it was 800 years after she had disappeared and the entire world had changed. Now she travels with a band of adventurers as she tries to find those magic rings.)

it's taking literally all my self-restraint to not make a character sheet for her

(Reece's LARP character is an older dwarven gentleman who came out of retirement for one last adventure)
