PLEASE NOTE That as we are returning to regular play, if we do not hear from you on the check-in post by Sunday, February 24th your character is going to be suspended from the game. If we receive notification that you are still interested afterwards they will be re-instated, but in the meantime it will be as though they were voluntarily dropped.
There have been absences, and silences, and for this we apologize.
Though the holidays are enough to derail any one person, it seems that it belayed many of our players, and, most unfortunately (and regrettably), your mods. I want to extend, first and foremost, our deepest and sincerest apologies. We never meant for the game to falter, but circumstance got the better of everyone at, seemingly, the exact same time, so we're left here to pick up the pieces and pray that you're still with us.
The amount of inquiries we received about the status of the game was overwhelming and, quite honestly, incredibly humbling. We were never really certain that this game would catch on outside of a few players we'd known before, and we're so grateful to you all -- for helping us build and expand a world we -- at first -- didn't take all that seriously, one that is becoming a thorough, complex, beautiful universe you all helped to create. We thank you, and we love love love you all.
Now, to business.
You will see the website is once again functional, though it has transferred domains. Please note that it can now be found at http://kneeknockers.net/exvoto, as opposed to the previous luvluv.net. It was restored from incomplete archives, so please go through and check to make sure everyone of yours is properly listed.
We intend to pick up activity again just as soon as everyone can be contacted and accounted for. In the wake of Elle and Nen's absence, I will be doing my best to get to everyone personally, but should you see this on your own please contact any other players you see sneaking about online! Due to my jobs I cannot be on AIM with the level of normalcy you came to expect from Elle and Nen, so please direct anyone you see floating about in your buddy list to this post so that we can create a dialogue and see who is still interested. If you see this and decide to part with us, at the very least we ask you leave a paragraph explaining your character's dismissal from the game (travelling, spirit quest, death, et cetera), or, if you're feeling generous, a solo write-out (including notes to others, if you wish!) so that you can afford all other remaining characters closure in-game.
Though I can't get on AIM quite as much as I'd like, I am always available at besidethegramophone at gmail dot com, and have been doing most of my scenes through there as well. Please don't be shy with any questions, concerns, comments, anything at all! An in-game event is being planned (due to Liz's amazing suggestion, so give her mad props! ♥), and will be posted when it is clearer the position of all our players. For the sake of convenience and transparency, leave a note here so that we know you've read this, as well as your status regarding returning to normal activity with us.
Again, we apologize for the radio silence, but more importantly -- we're all so glad and excited to be back, and hope you are as well!
♥
