[ On Monster Attacks ]
So an interesting thing will be happening soon: the return of raptors! And by raptors we mean monsters, including raptors! We know many of you have been rooting for raptors to come back for ages.

Here's the deal. Alessa of Silent Hill fame is, in her canon, the reason that town gets all foggy and evil. And she's here to share some of her foggy evil with us now, thanks to Vel for her cooperation. Which means that when she's out of her restraints, her emotional stress will be reflected via occasional descents into dome-wide madness.

However, your mods have been having a little difficulty balancing things out. In the old days, we had raptors every weekend. We had to walk in the snow uphill both ways hip-deep in raptors just to get to the kiosk! But it hasn't been that way in quite some time, and some new players may find that a dramatic change, and not something they signed up for.

SO, SURVEY TIME. Poll results will only be visible by the mods, so please give your honest opinions. ETA: IJ's security levels on polls are broken. NO ONE WILL THINK LESS OF YOU FOR YOUR HONEST OPINIONS, SO PLEASE GIVE THEM. ETA ETA: No one will know who voted for what. Really! So feel free to vote your honest opinions.

Further ETA: A not official time-table might be, longer events will occur no more than once every 5-6 weeks; shorter events will occur no more than once every 3 weeks. FYI, since there seemed to be some confusion!

Poll #5331
Open to: All, results viewable to: None

How many different monsters is too many? We don't want to feel like an intense survival horror game with a giant bestiary.

Should we limit the areas that are affected when an incident happens?

Should we stick to the "only at night" model, or enable an incident to happen all "day"? Incidents will be rarer if they last longer.

Anything we left out? Anything you're curious about? Let us know! And feel free to comment anonymously if you feel the need.
