Mod post- Application and Character Hold Rule change
Now that the game is underway, we have a few rule adjustments to make. These shouldn’t affect you as the game is now, as they pertain to the Applications and Holds of new characters.
After the first major influx of applications and holds, we realized that there were some flaws in the rules already set down from the past game that we felt the need to address and change. We didn’t anticipate this problem before re-opening the games, which is why we had to scramble to try and fix things now.
Here are the new guidelines for placing holds/applications:
- One hold per player at one time. - Now that the game is in session, we will be imposing a two week waiting period between applications. This applies if you are going for a second character or your third. Within that two week period, we’d like to see players actively- logging and interacting through journals with the character they already have in play. This is to prove that you have the capability to keep more than one character active at the same time. We’d hate to have a character neglected when another player has the potential to be more active and have the character more involved in the game. A hold cannot be placed until after the 2 week period has ended.
We’ve also had to address the game’s Character Limits, as we felt they were a little too vague. These are our clarifications to be imposed from now on.
- Each player is allowed 3 characters: -One New Directions member/Main character* and 2 non-main character*/OC per player (with exception to what we've already approved) or 3 OCs. *Main character applies to any of the main New Directions kids or any characters that have had ample screen time or a main story arc in Glee seasons 1 and 2 (i.e. Dave Karofsky, Blaine Anderson). Also, Mr. Schuester, Sue Sylvester, and Emma Pillsbury are considered Main Characters. If you have any questions on the status of any characters, please consult the Mods.
