HUGE Update Time
The page is back up and here is what you missed:
Theme: We only did a slight rework this time around, because I’m still loving the color scheme but we needed to make things a little more legible and organized. I’m pretty happy with it myself, but feel free to give us some feedback.
Pages: For some of the pages, we stripped their custom themes if we deemed them not important enough to be all fancily formatted. It will make it easier for people to access on mobile and for us to update. In additional we created a brand new masterlist to replace the old one. Since we were able to weed out a lot of characters, it was easier for us to transition to a more traditional character masterlist without it being too chaotic. (No worries, not all of our characters have been put up on the masterlist yet, since we are still waiting to hear back from a few people before we move forward with the extra work.)
Bio Removal: We have taken down quite a few of our beloved. Right now, while we are still waiting on hearing back from a few people, we have brought our numbers down to 90 total characters, with 44 of them currently being taken. This is a pretty good number for us and allows us not only to get more needed characters picked up, but it also gives us the ability to keep pushing out new bios without building up too much. We still have those old bios stored away somewhere if we get to the point that we can bring them back, but for now they will be in holding.
FC Changes: On that same note, we have done some FC changes to some of our open characters (and one taken character). I will list those below the cut so everyone knows.
RSVPs: 17 of our original 21 members from before the hiatus have sent in their responses. So far, 4 people are leaving, but 13 of us are staying, and we are still waiting on another 4 to hear back from everyone. If we do not hear from you by August 27th, we will be reopening your characters. Farewell to Ashley, Mali, Spencer, and Mandi. I will post all the unfollow links below the cut.
Finally, reopening: We have set a date and it is Sunday, September 3rd. We acknowledge that for those of us getting back into school, this may be cutting it a little close, but we can’t see opening any earlier than that and we don’t want to wait too long. For me, that’s just a few days before my first class. However, we will be posting muse things, prompts, and character templates in the coming weeks to help people get prepared and into character, and in my eyes this will be the perfect time for us to prepare to mesh schedules with both school and rp and figure out how it will all work.
If you have any questions, let us know! We will be beginning to promote and are immediately receiving applications, though we will not be accepting until opening day.
