And That’s A Wrap!

And that’s it for The Acer Tournament! It’s been a fun game, filled with ups, downs, and a load of chairs. Thank you for sticking with us to the end!

Before I continue, for the muns of the surviving students: You may write a short story/drabble about what becomes of your character after the game and submit it under the “supplementary material“ tag! Please note that any and all supplementary material will be considered canon. These posts should not be used as starters for threads.

Now that we’re at the end, we have unlocked all the blogs for your viewing pleasure. This is the part where I dump a bunch of links here.

Supplementary Material

Thank you guys so much for playing and reading along! Stay tuned for more supplementary material and announcements on RD2!

Announcement Time!

Fun times.

First announcement: If nothing horrible happens, endgame will go live on September 27th! The exact time is pending. Look forward to that.

Second announcement: About the mod team for RD2! Myself (Addlez) and Britt will be returning for Heaven and Earth, but we also have two new mods stepping up to the pitch! Luke (who played Toshiro Ito in RD1) will be helping Britt with Heaven, and Beren gets to join the cool kids’ table with me down on Earth. Yay. Hope (who played Mana Oshiro in RD1) will also be joining us as a general mod.

Third announcement: The game schedule has gone through a few changes! We’re still under a two-week schedule, but there have been some smaller changes. The updated information can be found on the How To Play page.

Fourth and final announcement: RD2 hopeful chat is a thing. Click here (and then click where prompted) or send an ask with your Skype name to get added in.

That’s all for now folks. Until next time, Addlez out. (tiny trumpet noise)

Cue Endgame Hiatus + RD2 Confirmed

We made it to endgame guys I can’t believe this.

Anyway, Reaching Despair has official entered endgame hiatus! Stay tuned for updates on that.

And while we’re here, we’d like to confirm that Reaching Despair 2: Heaven and Earth is happening. We have the app ready to go (right here), but applications will not be open until sometime after endgame is posted. Feel free to have a look at it and get your muse going, and if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or snide remarks, feel free to message a mod!

See you lot at endgame!

Game Start Info!

This just in: The game is scheduled to start on Sunday, June 21, at noon EST! Gotta go fast.

Anyway, while I’m here, let’s discuss what your character will and will not know at the start of the game.

The most recent event your character will remember is waking up to attend their first day at Hope’s Peak. (The exact date is April 12, 2119, if you’re that curious.)

Since it’s the 22nd century, your characters will be a little bit more familiar with slightly more advanced and cleaner technology. Nothing crazy like teleporters and such, but things like self-driving cars and machines that can decay plastic.

All information on the roster page is public knowledge/can be found on the ID cards.

Let’s get hype for a great game!

Important stuff!

The links on the blog and the links page have been updated! Most importantly, the trigger list has also been updated!

We’re working to get this game up and running! We’ll make another announcement once we’ve figured out an appropriate start date.
