Announcements 12.31.07


Weekly Reminders:

  • We've added a lot of new people lately, so make sure your friends list is up-to-date.

  • We still have a lot of needed characters, so please take a moment to check the cast list and see if you know anyone who would be interested in filling some our vacancies.

  • The Monster Page of Links includes links to entries that will help you get characters to join your threads, contact other players, and access the anonymous journal (but let us know if you see anything we forgot).



Important Links:

  • The Academic Calendar for the 1975-76 school year

  • The class rosters, so you'll know who your character(s) will be interacting with on a regular basis

  • The course schedules

  • The plot schedule, so you'll know what's coming up, and when
If you haven't picked your character's classes yet, this page should help (but let us know if it doesn't).



Join The Fun!

If you're looking for something to do, here are some open threads/entries your character can join and/or comment on:

Open Threads:

  • The Future Students begin to wake up (yep, it's still going).

  • There is some lively conversation at Christmas Dinner. (Someone please talk to Neville. :-( He's lonely.)

  • Layla studies in the Slytherin Common Room.

  • Cecily hates the holidays.

  • Amber goes to the library.
Legens Entries:

  • Elizabeth wishes everyone a Happy Christmas.

  • Alice wishes everyone a Happy Christmas.

  • Hannah isn't sure what to write in her Legens.

  • Nevin is disappointed with his Christmas/birthday present.

  • Kingsley asks for volunteers to help him break in his new Wizard's Chess set.

  • Jacob wonders what everyone is doing for New Year's.

  • Edwin asks if anyone writes thank you notes for Christmas presents.

  • Hannah thinks spending Christmas at Hogwarts was ... strange.

  • Hermione wishes everyone a Happy New Year.

Other Occurrences:

  • Alice sends the Future Students plague survivors some Christmas cookies.



Operation House Unity:

Once the new term starts (January 6th), Dumbledore is going to announce Operation: House Unity at the start-of-term feast. The mods have already made most of the penpal assignments (we may have to juggle things a bit to accommodate our new players, but that's not a big deal). We will start PMing the assignments out a day or two before the term starts, and we'll announce that fact in the OOC comm. If for some reason you don't receive your PM(s) with your assignment(s), leave us a comment on the announcement entry, and we'll e-mail you the information instead. Before we get too attached to the assignments we've made, however...


Activity Check:

This is kind of rushed, so we're gonna apologize for that. We should have done a check last week, but ... oh well! We screwed up. So sue us! (Not really. We're broke. :-P)

Instead of going through all the journal entries to make sure people are still around, we're going to ask that everyone currently in the game leave a comment below to let us know you're still active. If someone doesn't respond, then we'll go a-huntin'. We will give everyone until this coming Saturday (January 5th) to respond. If a player is removed from the game due to inactivity, they can always reclaim their character(s) at a later time, as long as a new player hasn't taken over the role.

To make things more interesting, we're going to ask a question that you can answer when you reply (if you want), although simply saying "Here!" is good enough. The question this time around is:

Which of the current students would you personally most like to meet, if you had the chance, and why? (We'll do the Future Students next time, never fear!)

Everyone is probably expecting that I'll say Snape, but I'm just gonna be contrary. :-P Canon!Snape kinda scares me, believe it or not, so I'd probably be too shy to talk to him, and he'd be seriously annoyed at my reticence, so it'd just be a bad scene, all around.

Believe it or not, I think I'd really like to meet Peter. O.O He's a total Mary Sue for me, really, although I like to think that I'm a little bit smarter than I play him. (He's the only character for whom I don't religiously spell check before posting a comment, although I do consciously play up the writing errors.) I'd like to see if I could feel him out and pinpoint what exactly turned him from a mindless James groupie (as he's portrayed in canon) to the man who betrayed James and got him killed. It'd be kinda fun, in a morbid sort of way. ;-)

Frank. Why, you might ask (and you did)? Because he's hot.

I'm shallow, don't cha know?

LOL!

...You crack me up, Lilly -- as always. :-D

Do I need to say?

And I should hope he would not be annoyed by my reticence.

You're cuter than I am, so I'm sure he'd cut you some slack. ;-)

Oh, good question. I'm not sure...maybe Alice or Lily? I would feel the need to smack the Marauders for their pranks, and I *also* find Snape slightly scary.

Alice just seems maternal and fun to chat with...

After you ask about future students, you should ask about current/future teachers. (:

Definitely Kingsley. Because we know so little about him canonically (is that a word?) speaking.

Hi!

So, if I was going to meet one of the current students? Hmmmm. I have three. James (I love those Potters!) or Frank and Alice. I would love to meet them and talk to them and find out things - there's not much we know about the Longbottoms.

Here! And Kingsley, I guess. Why? Because he has some inherent coolness ;)

Here! And... Alice, because she's such a sweetie. :D

Hmm, good question. I think I'll go with Dedalus Diggle because it would be funny to see what he was like as a student.

I can see myself getting along with Remus or Lily most, I think. I'd be dead curious to meet Snape but I have to go with Dovie on how that might turn out.

[info]sirius_or
2008-01-02 05:23 am UTC (link)
Hm, I definitely would go with meeting Remus. I think he would be the kind of guy I'd get along with pretty well. (And who doesn't love a guy that adores chocolate and books? ;D)

I'm here, but I'd like to meet Sirius or Snape. Idk. :/

Hannah wants to meet her mother. Find out things about her she didn't get the chance to know in her time. But me, I want to drag Remus to another room and have my way with him.

Oh, and here!

[info]draco_or

I'm here, of course ;) And I might want to meet Lily, just because we never actually get to see much of her canon wise. We only see her either from Harry's memories, Dumbledore's memories, or well...someone else's memories in general. We never actually see just her!

No worries. We just wanted to make sure we had an accurate head count before we started sending out pen pal assignments. :-)

No worries! Better late than never, and all that. ;-)
