Out of Character

Dear all:

I know we've sort of hit a slow-down, and I just wanted to be sure that everybody knew why. I've emailed some of you directly about things, but I want it on record, just in case.

For one, Dyan has been having computer and health issues of the serious sort.

For my part, a cousin, with whom I was very close growing up, died in a car accident a few weeks back. It's been very difficult for me. Also, my relationship of over two years has gone on a hiatus with no end date, and it's looking very much like it's going to be a solid break-up (though I'm still hoping for a happy ending in the future.) It's been very hard for me to concentrate on much, but I've tried to tag when I can. I'm taking things day by day, and unfortunately...

... while I'm feeling a good deal better, I'll be back east with my family from March 3-11.

What does this mean for the game?

While I am gone, Kelly will be acting as a sub-mod. Please be kind to her. :) It's going to be business as usual while I am away, but when I am back, there will be an activity check.

Also, we're going to do something we've never done in this game before: a game-wide challenge. I'm hoping to get information on that up tonight or tomorrow, and it may even start while I'm still gone.

I really appreciate everybody's patience with me, Dyan, and the game as a whole. I do want you to know that it remains a priority for me, even though I've gone a bit off the map. And the goal is to get it to a faster-moving, more active state. It's just going to take a little bit of time.

All my hugs,
Lilah

So, welcome to the first-ever gamewide challenge for BRS! How this will work: sign up for any characters you would like to participate in the challenge below. Sign-ups will be open through Friday, March 9th. Sometime over the weekend of March 9-11, I will post the list of pairings for this challenge. After that, you will have until March 31st to plot with your partner and put up a thread for that challenge.

The theme of this challenge: "stuck on you." What does this mean? This means that at some point during the thread, your characters have to get stuck together. Whether it's a magical stuck together, just locked in a room together, handcuffed together, whatever. Somehow, they have to get stuck together. What happens next is up to you.

And... go for sign-ups!
