PTC REMINDER

If you want to participate in Parent Teacher Conferences, or make any revisions to your submission, now's the time to do it! We're working on teacher responses today and tomorrow, so this is kind of the ~last call~. Sign up HERE.

Thank you for all of your patience and enthusiasm! This is our first time being mods, and it's a constant process of adjusting to see what works and what doesn't. We hope you all are still having fun here because we have lots of things planned for the future!

Does your character have a sibling who graduated last year? Let's talk about them!

	It's hilarious to me every time you guys say this is your first time modding because first - we are awful, needy children But this is also the most thought out, in depth game I've ever played in (Reply to this) (Thread)

	yeah, you two are serious superstars. FOR INSTANCE, some of our SOs even have opinions on what the supernatural nature of the ghostbery spoop is. and there's basically a constant countdown to the next ic/ooc and anon post. everything is SO ENGAGING and SO MUCH FUN. if i was grading this game i would give it an a+ "excellent."

	It's actually the perfect balance. Bc I've been in games that have no mod plots like at all and they tend to fall apart Bc nobody has any direction to go toward. Then I've been in games that have too many mod plots that it's impossible to do anything character driven. This has a lot of ic/ooc but they're not like game changing mod plots.

ACTUALLY I forgot I wanted to ask about this before PTC, but does your character have a sibling who graduated last year? LET'S TALK ABOUT THEM. WHAT HOUSE WERE THEY IN. WHAT WERE THEIR RELATIONSHIPS. WERE THEY FRIENDS. WHERE THEY ENEMIES. DID ANY OF THEM DATE. How many of them are coming for PTC and will want to gossip about what huge dorks their little sisters/brothers are?????

I (Marin) am sad that I am not in this club of awful older siblings but I think it would be fun anyway to give you guys the chance to talk~ c:

	Etta's sister and Reece's sister were roommates! Even if she's not coming to PTC if they were friends Theo's totally invited to Ricardo and Cristiane's Big Wedding Party. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	The oldest Quayle graduated from Coppertale last year. I imagine he was popular. He was probably friends with Ricardo. By far the snootiest of the Quayles. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Rafael's older brother, the source of many Rafael meltdowns, super handsome charming prom king and LARP founder. He was in Event Committee, too. He's charming, fun, and a bottomless well of affection. He's also a complete narcissist! He's engaged to Cristiane, Reece's older sister. They're beautiful and terrible.

	Addy's big sister went here! She is way too busy to come to ptc but she was here last year. Take Addy and imagine the opposite. She is currently working on Muggle college in Washington DC and interning at MACUSA. She was a high achiever, very uptight, but she did go to parties. Probably had one of the best Bear Cave seats.

Everyone needs to know that Josie was the mod of the game we were in immediately before making GB, and is responsible for pulling us back into Harry Potter RP after like an eight year hiatus. So much of the way we run this game came from watching the way Josie worked her ass off for a year providing a great RP experience, and Gooseberry would not exist without her.

Thank you so much for the reminder! I totally dropped the ball with Ty despite talking about his parents all week. :|

Also: I can't believe this is your first time as mods! I don't know how I missed that before now, but you guys are amazing and this is honestly the most well-run game I've ever been in. Props to you both! So into this game. You don't even know. (Well, maybe you do.)

This - unsurprisingly has nothing to do with the post

But Meggie

Since Ramirez is still frosty the snowman (Chris has probably referred to him with that name to Quinn at some point) does that mean he won't give Robin and Chris a pass when they show up at six in the morning after the camping trip, claiming to have been on a run. Does Rafael wanna get them in trouble

Would there be an argument. Since it's the morning of parent teacher conference and Ramirez has the presence of Ricardo hanging over his head

I'M GAME. Rafael's still in a bad mood because he's nervous about PTC and worried about a lot of people and whether or not he can handle his cabin and is he too easy on Chris and Robin or is he not easy enough... but through the Ramirez Filter that comes out as ANGER. So he's currently really touchy and might bitterly wake up early to catch them. He's still not going to yell because it'd just be too OOC, but he'd be cold and cutting and all around unpleasant. :(

ON THE OTHER HAND, he admitted to Quinn he's having anger issues right now so he could make the sensible choice and avoid a fight.
