Back From The (Re)Dead!
HOKAY SO 8U
Pretty much every year I have run battle-frontier for, I've hosted a NYE Party -- But with BFOI more or less shut down, is there even gonna' be a party? THE ANSWER IS YES 8U Beyond the Great Sea is now the new host for the NYE Parties!
But of course, we're not about to just up and move to a dead group, nononononono! This means that BtGS is finally getting back on its feet after two long years and I couldn't be happier about it. The group itself is going to be tidied up approaching NYE, and a journal posted between Christmas and NYE detailing all the changes coming ahead, but for now, here's a quick and dirty rundown for you ~
DISCORD: • BtGS now has a Member Discord: https://discord.gg/8MjqVuk -- DA deleted the original BtGS chat, so we've moved onto a new platform.
NYE PARTY INFO: • NYE Party will be held in the BtGS Discord Dec 31st from 8pm EST (Toronto timezone) until I (taz) pass out. • Every person who attends will get a WW sketch of a character of their choice! The BtGS Admin will pretty much all be onboard for drawing, so no guarantees who draws you! • Existing/Returning BtGS Members will be awarded random spot prizes of Rupees and Items during the NYE party.
GENERAL GROUP INFO: Journal going up between Christmas & NYE detailing the following: • BtGS Frontpage will be getting cleaned up until we can afford SuperGroup status again. • Sometime on NYD (or the 2nd depending on alcohol consumption/hangovers lol) will see a new event and a new feature added to the group to ease people back in. The first actual story doesn't have a set date yet - We'll wait on member activity to get back to an excitable level before we throw you in the deep end. • The BtGS Tumblr is taking questions again, and we'll probably start posting more silly doodles or wips on there from time to time. • Weapons, Items, Magic, Economy -- All getting a full overhaul as Breath of the Wild gave us SO MUCH amazing stuff to work with. • No, sorry, Zora will not be added to the group. At least, not until the main story is complete - If we have enough membership/interest in a second story they will definitely show up there. • BtGS will be looking to add at least two, possibly more, Admin to the team -- Please wait until the group journal goes up before contacting us about a position, though! Anything sent early WILL be dismissed!
That about wraps everything up -- I hope you're looking forward to 2018 as much as the BtGS team is!
