Important 3rd Season info and Updates!

Okay everyone, time to bust your calendars out--because I have some dates and announcements for you~

  • Our pre-season 4th wall event will be on March 16th! Hopefully we'll get some new members from this, and ones that we'll be able to get CR for prior to the start of the game because yes, it's another in-game 4th wall event~
  • Applications and reserves open April 14th!
  • The last season will begin May 19th, 11:59am EST. Yep, I'm making it a morning start this time around! This...is for slightly selfish reasons since my brain is usually pretty dead by the time it gets towards midnight, and damnit, I don't want people to have to wait on me while I sleep.


But...dates aren't the only things I have for you. Nope! I've updated the mod journal and cleaned some things up! Every link now should link to dreamwidth-based pages. (And if it doesn't please let me know!) But aside from that, the biggest changes I made were to the following:

  • The Profiles! The code is no longer broken! The links are updated and all the dates I listed above are listed there as well.
  • The Premise! It's been updated to reflect how things have progressed and how the stakes are greater for the third season.
  • The Town Features page! More specifically, the NPC section. Bit of a formatting change as well as an update about each character, like what happened to them in the past and where they are now. (Long story short? Everyone's location is a mystery!)
  • The Application page! I added a portion to the app asking whether that character was in the 4th wall event or not, and...I adjusted the application requirements. Shaved them down a bit, and added a note asking people not to be intimidated by the length of the sample apps. Hopefully...these changes will encourage more people to app. I also changed the notes about returning characters to reflect changes made at the end of the second season. (And I'll talk about this more in a moment!)
  • The FAQ page! Simple additions with a "where to begin" explanation and how the game works, as well as ones for quick-time events and the 4th wall event CR.
  • And the biggest: The Plot Summary page! It was in sore need of updating, but now all links from all seasons have their dreamwidth equivalents!

Those were the biggest changes that had to be made, and as we get closer to the start of the game, I'll be making more additions/changes as they are needed. But as you may notice, some of the pages aren't quite complete, namely the Taken, Contact, and Permissions pages. That's where you guys come in!

Things I need from you all:


I'm screening the entry, since this is confidential info, but if you feel more comfortable sending it to me via email, send it here, please! If you can, please send me this info as soon as you can. The sooner, the better <3

As a note, the above information update is technically an activity/interest check. If I don't receive any information from you by the time Apps and Reserves open (April 14th), I'm going to bite the bullet and remove you from the game :( If you are removed and want to get back in, all you'll need to do is just re-apply (and if you want to canon update during that time, please do so!) Your character will get their memories back of their time in Luministi once they're back in town.

Also, I'll need something else prior to the start of the game. Yes, this is the dreaded returning characters requirement thing. Last time, I had you guys send me an update to your character histories, namely what happened to them since leaving Luministi. I am going to ask for the same thing this time (but if you aren't updating your character too much or not at all, please say so as well!) This also goes for those who didn't go home. You don't have to give a detailed rundown of everything that happened. A general synopsis is all I'll need~ (Hell, it could be a couple sentences and it'd be cool.)

In addition to this, I'm also going to ask what part of your character's world had appeared during the dreams plot and where. Those places did not go away at the end of the game! They're still in the town... And start thinking of something else that you'd like to appear from your character's world. (But not people, sadly.) I'm not going to need the second thing now, but...start thinking. I'll need this by, at the latest, May 1st. (But don't worry, I'll be reminding you all about this once we get closer to the start of the app/reserve opening~


---------------------------------

Okay, so! I'm going to advertise for the 4th wall in the next app_this_plz, but start spreading the word to friends and such now! (And if you want to point them to the apps page if they're interested, then get them started! The app won't be changing.) And hey, if you guys want to request any characters you would like to see in the game or in the 4th wall, please go request some now! I kept the ones from last season there, and if you have any changes/additions, please let me know so I can get a list together for March's ATP! I'll ask if there are any changes to the list before the April one too.

Thanks so much, everyone! If you have any questions or anything, please ask in a separate comment (if you're submitting your info update here) so I can unscreen it and reply~ I'm super excited to see what you guys think of this next season and the end of the story. I've been waiting since day one to divulge things and gosh, can't wait! ♥!

EDIT: One last thing. I do not have everyone from the LJ version of the comm on here. If any of you know those who are missing, please direct them to here? I'd greatly appreciate it!
