ANNOUNCEMENT: Oct 28
Hey all, just a reminder to post to this month's Activity Check if you haven't already! You have until November 1 to get your activity in, or else you can ask for a an activity strike for your character(s).

Also, thank you to everyone who's contributed something to the Plot Suggestions dropbox so far!! We've gotten a ton of great ideas, and hopefully we can start working some of these into future plots. (You can all thank Aleena for the current Amortentia scent drama, especially since that suggestion nicely dovetailed with our plans for November...!)

ALSO ALSO we anticipate that November's plot calendar will be posted on October 30, at 8:00 AM MT. Those who were promised an early shot at the calendar will see it on October 29, probably around 8 AM, and we will email you when we've posted it. :) Corrections here!

Yeah, we've been making the effort for the past few weeks to post things in the morning so everyone can get to it, but sometimes it's tough with everything we have to write! There have been SO MANY events and IC/OOCs this month aaand there will probably be just as many next month. D:

But from now on, we will at least be aiming to post plot calendars at 8 AM our time, and give everyone ample warning about when they go up. :)

	Haha, it's ok! We've just felt really bad that so many people missed when the last calendar went up, since we posted it at midnight, and we've been trying to rectify that so no one gets left out. Especially all the poor GMT people. ;3; (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I head right out of the door to catch the tube once I'm ready in a weekday morning, so I can't check the game until evening. Weekend mornings/afternoons are mega helpful over in this direction XD (Also, I am going to Cursed Child later this month, who dares me to go in Hufflepuff cosplay and take a selfie outside the theatre?)

I don't know what time that is for me but t doesn't matter Bc I get to see it a day early so it'd be alright

The morning thing is not helping me bc I work nights so I don't do mornings but when I got oddy to join I counted how many characters we have. We had sixty nine when she joined. This is seriously the largest game I've been in so kudos to you two and your attempt to post at a convenient times lol

	Oh man I found this fun tool: Every Time Zone So Denver is in the same time zone as Utah, and we're only really screwing over anyone who might be in Hawai'i or Australia, lol. WE'RE PRAYING IT WORKS OUT because yeah, honestly, this is the biggest game the mods have ever been in and we're constantly going ahhhhhh at staying on top of things.

	LMAO ROZ I'M SO SORRY I'm trying to fix my sleep schedule since I have a new job, so posting stuff at midnight meant I usually stayed up until 1 or 2 AM updating things sdjkfhkjk BUT HEY at least you get to it early this time lol. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have a problem with waking up at like 3:00 AM and thinking it's time to wake up, so if I dare to look at my phone it'll just ACTUALLY WAKE ME UP AND I'LL NEVER GO BACK TO SLEEP. MY LIFE IS REALLY HARD, ALEENA. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	adorbs 2016-10-28 07:47 pm UTC (link)
	I have started putting my phone too far to reach for exactly this reason tbh (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rosmarinus 2016-10-28 07:51 pm UTC (link)
	I AM A FUCKING MESS OF A PERSON and if I don't have my phone in my hand when my alarm DOES actually go off I will apparently just go right back to sleep. I don't understand how sleeping works you guys. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	madtess 2016-10-28 10:02 pm UTC (link)
	Omg this is literally what gets me out of bed. Like, I keep my cell phone in another room while I sleep so I wake up and I'm like, "Ugh 5 more minutes.... but what if I have tags??" (Reply to this) (Parent)
