a quick update from your admin:

there will be a cycle update posted this evening -- you are more than welcome to continue threads taking place during the current cycle after tonight, but the update should allow for some new material for threads and to push the plot forward and closer to Proxima B~

a new event will be posting on Sunday, 12 November so you should aim to wrap up threads by then so that you’ll be able to jump right into the event

I will be conducting our first activity check tonight as well; messages will be sent out to anyone who hasn’t been active in over seven days, and those players will have 48 hours to resume activity or message the main to discuss activity

for anyone still hoping to apply, there are currently three open characters -- Castellano, Ka'aukai, and Turner. I would love to have them around, and will set our next acceptance date as soon as I receive an application for any of them!

as always, let me know if you have any questions--

I apologize for my relative absence the past few days -- tumblr has been giving me a bit of trouble with logging in and out of my various rp accounts, this one included. that being said, rather than post an unfollow notice today for the accounts off hiatus who have yet to contact me, I’d like to make a quick post asking those members who are still invested in this group and would like it to continue on to like this post or message me.

activity has been incredibly low since the holidays and has yet to pick up; in fact, there’s been no activity on the dash in the past four days at all. I know people are busy and it’s hard to be active with so many people on hiatus or absent, and I am beginning to think that it would be better for this group to just go on hiatus rather than continue to drag on with nothing happening. I’d be happy to re-open this group at another time, when people have more time to commit to the group, and I’d rather do that than slowly post unfollow notices for everyone as activity dwindles. 

if everyone who sees this could let me know what they think, I’d very much appreciate it as I make my decision over the next few days!

first off, I just want to say how thrilled I am so far -- every thread I’ve read has been absolutely amazing and you are all wonderful and I’m so pleased with how this rp is shaping up so far! now, just a few quick announcements for the upcoming week:

with an exciting app for Turner sitting in my inbox, I’ve set an acceptance date for Wednesday, November 1 at 10pm GMT/5pm EST -- I would love to be able to round out our crew with both a Davies and a Turner in time for our second event, so if you’re still interested in joining, be sure to take a look at either of them! 

the vote for the first event will be taking place the day after tomorrow on October 30, so start thinking about how your character wants to vote! more details will be posted on the 30th, but keep it on your radar so you don’t miss your chance to vote! if you won’t be able to send in a message on that day, let me know beforehand so you can get your vote in early--

OPENING DATE AND ACCEPTANCE DATE SET:

the second round of acceptances will take place on Monday, October 23rd; the submit box will close at 10pm GMT/5pm EST

argonauts will officially open for roleplaying the following day, Tuesday the 24th at 10pm GMT/5pm EST

in between now and then I’ll be posting some character- and connection-building prompts to help facilitate plotting between those already accepted, so keep an eye out for those to go up along with character follow links tomorrow afternoon! 

as always, let me know if you have any questions; I’ll be around for another hour or so tonight and most of the weekend--

it’s been nice to see the dash already picking up again now that the holidays are over and to see a little more activity after what I know has been a very busy time for everyone! 

of course, now that the holidays are over, I’m hoping that everyone who isn’t still on hiatus will be able to jump back in and we’ll be able to get the plot really rolling again in the next week or two -- to that end, I just wanted to let you all know that I’ll be doing an activity check on Friday and that I would really love for there to be nobody on it. 

if we’ve got nearly everyone pretty active again by the end of the week, I’ll start working towards the next cycle update and more updates for the WARNING event so we can keep on trucking towards Proxima B and some alien contact!

as always, let me know if you have any questions, need to take or extend a hiatus, or anything else--

apologies for being scarce on the main for a few days-- I was out of town, but I am back now and will be doing acceptances tonight at 10pm GMT/5pm EST for the app currently in my inbox and any applications I get between now and then. I will also be conducting an activity check this Saturday, so if you haven’t been active in the last week or so, you’ve got a chance to jump back into things or contact me for a hiatus if need be.

as always, let me know if you have any questions--

I’ll be reviewing applications and conducting acceptances at 10pm GMT/5pm EST on Thursday, November 16--

just a quick word on some timing issues, thanks to Daylight Savings Time:

tonight’s post about the crew vote will go up at 10pm GMT/6pm EST

the deadline for applications for Wednesdays acceptances will be 10pm GMT/6pm EST

Daylight Savings has happened here in the UK but not yet in the States, which I just realized this afternoon, hence the slight change -- but everything should be back on schedule next week! 

aside from that, we now have four open characters and I would love to see another application or two by Wednesday, so let me know if you have any questions--
