lightning_war post recap: July 3-15, 2008
Game date and time: Monday morning, 14 September 1942:
Announcements:
* Lightning War has been on Insane Journal now for 3 months. If you are reading this on Live Journal or through an RSS feed, links will work, but clicking on journal names will take you to a Live Journal which will not have been updated and may not even belong to the game.
* If you are not a member of this community, your comments to posts will be screened, which makes discussions less lively. Watching/friending this community isn't the same thing as being a member. Please join the community; I will approve you as soon as I'm sure you're not our troll.
Completed/Continuing Open Threads:
Julie Peverell and Davy Longbottom talk to the first through third-year Hogwarts students about the drills and past crises, and are asked questions for which they were not quite prepared. (Closed and complete.)
Tom Riddle's loneliness is eased by schadenfreude, but his attempt to flirt with Arianwen Rosier goes totally sour. (Closed and complete.)

Jonathan Dashwood is missing his older brother Endymion, and his good friend Lucius, not that he'd ever discuss it with anyone living.

New Journals:
veritatis Verity Umbridge (Slytherin 1935) was Portia Parkinson's best friend when they were at Hogwarts together, and is also a very good friend of Yvon Malfoy's. She has a number of regrettable relatives, including the previous Minister of Magick, Mrs Walsingham in the Department of Mysteries, and last but not least, her younger sister Dolores. Verity is insanely driven, competent and fierce, and so determined to do the right thing you might think she was a Gryffindor--but she's too much of a schemer to be anything other than a Slytherin down to the bone. (PB: Liza Weil)
Here's the list of who's where on Insane Journal.
New NPCs/PBs:
None this time.
New Graphics:
Please be patient with us as many of the new journals are not yet set up and do not yet have proper layouts. I'm 2/3 way done with my own and then I'll be able to help other people. Once all the old journals are laid out at all, new layouts will again be noteworthy.
There are also a lot of new userpics, too many to list, as people go from 6 to 100 apiece. alessio and fairlight got a few new ones.
Under New Management:
There are a lot of characters that are currently open. Check out the Adoptable Characters page for descriptions of the kinds of adoptions that are open and lists of characters available for each. If you are not sure, ask. :)
