Hello Excellent Players!
Droid Invasion Plot Resolution Details
The Droids are gone. NYC is all back in the right universe. The Different are on the right planet. AKA, the Droid Invasion plot is over.
Because the characters didn’t destroy command centers, the resolution of the plot is that the Bureau was able to recalibrate matters and unstick the converged universes.
A few things for clean up:
⇀ If your character collected anything during the plot and put them in their homes – they can keep that. (No, not tanks whole because those do not fit through doors.) But anything that could have been carried through a door is fair game to keep.
⇀ A few characters died during this plot: Jim Hopper and Bitterblue Monsea. Look for an announcement from The Bureau about this.
For now, the Privacy Filter still works, as Bitterblue hid her work well. But, this does mean changes are coming…Unrelated to Plot Notes but Relevant to the Game
- We will be amending one of our rules – under Reserves and Apps where we say:
- “Players can attempt to app the same character up to three (3) times. After that, whether due to rejection or dropping and picking the character back up, a player can no longer apply for that character.”
We will be amending this to:
- “After three (3) rejections with no successful apps into the game, a player can no longer attempt to apply to the game.”
This will be updated on the following pages: FAQ, Reserves, and Apps within a few days. - After giving it some thought, we decided to rework the Points System. This will start in November. We wanted to give players more opportunities to gain points while balancing it so it doesn’t go overboard. We will preview the new system before it goes into effect.
Going forward, we also plan to include Basic, Middling, and Full forms on the AC posts, so that a player can submit basic AC without the hassle of deleting a bunch of code. The Middling and Full forms will be for various degrees of point gains depending on how much work a player wants to put in.
And regarding the Points System – we have a poll we want to ask of players:
- Currently it costs 6 points for a player to run a game-wide plot, but a player also earns 10 points for doing so.
⇀ Is the point cost of running a game wide plot prohibitive in your opinion?
⇀ Should a player wanting to run a game wide plot cost points?
⇀ If “No”, how many points should a player earn for running a game wide plot?
Anon commenting will be turned on for this poll. Put your answers in a comment below. Players have until 10/15/2020 to respond.
That is our news...for now.More Mod LaughterStay tuned and stay excellent to each other!
