Holy cow, you guys! It's February already!
This Month
We're open-open!
All this really means is anyone can apply now, and we're advertising in a few choice places. Still, exciting! Maybe we'll get a few newbies that jibe with our foundation of awesome and chill players!February Events
- The Thames Torso Murders - An ongoing plot for the murder-minded.
- Lunar New Year - Technically takes place on 10 February, but use it as a plot device anytime in the month and get an award!
- 30 Posts in 30 Days - A challenge event: Earn 3k points and an award!
Weather
We're still in a drought through July. The smog in London is likely nigh-unbearable in places because there's been no rain to tamp it down. Breathing/asthmatic concerns are common, so toss that into your writing if it works!Reminders
- Discord events - You are welcome and encouraged to add any character-level events to our "Events" tab (channel?) in Discord! We will continue to add temporary site-wide events there as well so it becomes a one-stop shop for find quick plot devices. There's more info here.
- Historical reference - We have a dedicated page now here. Please pass on your references — They don't have to be websites!
- Awards - The full list of available awards is here. There are definitely some we forgot to give out, so please let us know if you're owed!
- Light theme - We have no idea if anyone is using this. If you are and things aren't correct anywhere, please do let Keaton know. Nearly all updates of the themes have to be done separately and honestly, she's not fooling with the Light theme if no one cares!
