(no subject)
... are you guys tired of me yet? Well, time for some updates on Le Situation. All these updates were made by request, or because people pointed out things I had forgotten, or because of communication errors, etc.
Updates to the Handbook
Language section updated; it was pointed out to me that what I had written didn’t make a lot of sense, so I fixed that and added in a more concrete example of how the language barrier in Paradisa works.
Past Plots page with list of “done plots” and small summaries of what happened has been added. This needs a lot of work because I don’t rightly know what happened before I got here, so I’ve only been able to cover the last year. Do you guys want to fill me in/provide summaries so? That would be really awesome. As for “what is significant”, use your best judgment. Did it have an impact on at least a sizable portion of the castle? Christina and I are going to try to fill in everything we can.
Making Changes page: Added: "In the past players have used an event from a plot ending to update their characters canon. As always this sort of change will have to be approved by a mod." Also added: “Characters that have not been introduced yet can have their losses and canon points changed without consequence by speaking with a mod.” Also added is “I just got owned by a retcon in canon. What the heck do I do?”
Castle page now has a section on what the castle does for holidays, and a blurb on the current date. Also mentioned is “how soundproof are the walls”.
Application expectations now has a section on things that make a character ineligible for application, and what to do with characters that have no name in canon. Also, advice on “character limits PER FANDOM”, rules on PBs, etc.
Activity and Hiatuses was clarified.
There are now buffalo on the grassy plains. No word on the dysentery.
On another note:
Thank you everyone for your suggestions/questions/mistake finding, it’s really making this an enjoyable process. :) And thank you to everyone that read the entire thing through, or are in the process of it; I hope it’s made things a lot clearer.
If you still have questions/things you want addressed/whatever, keep bringing them to me, I'll continue to work on the Handbook.
... AND THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT PLEASE READ THIS
Please please please for the love of everything, go to the Wiki and make sure your character has a page. It doesn’t have to be big and elaborate, as long as it says who they are, and who plays them. I don’t want to see a single red link! Give me blue links!
