mod announcements.

First off, we have a few things planned for February. There are a few Valentines' events that will be announced and there's going to be an action-packed plot towards the second of the half of the month.

For now, though, all of your characters have to deal with phones that have an autocorrect that is currently on the fritz. As with most of our plots, this is an option plot. It doesn't have to happen to your character and it doesn't have to be every single net post. However, if you want to have your character participate, just swap out a few words on some of your net posts. If you need inspiration, take a peek at Damn You Autocorrect

Be sure to tag any netposts where devices are 'malfunctioning' with the "!plot" tag and give yourself an additional 5 points for each of those.

Activity Check Time! Only activity from January 01 - January 31 will count for this check. This check will close on January 8, at 9 PM EST. Anyone who has not replied by this time will be removed.

→ If your character was added after January 15th, then they are not required to meet activity, but still include them in your reply to the check.

→ Remember, you need 40 points each month to pass the check, and one scene. There are also things you can spend your points on, and you can suggest other things too.

→ Those who have activity trackers can just link to those for their point values, but we would appreciate if the total number of points was added up in a place easy to see.

→ If you do not have an activity tracker, just simply fill out this form for each of your characters. PUT YOUR NAME IN THE SUBJECT LINE. Repeat for all characters.

→ In addition to the check, we are requiring everyone to do their taken comments, failure to do that and the check will result in removal.

→ Don't forget that random matchups are 30 for in progress, 50 for complete. You also get 50 if you started it and your partner never tagged in.

Lots of stuff from us tonight, sorry guys!

We are also going to be overhauling the contact list, because right now it's just too big. We're actually going to have you guys add your own info as a comment. There will be instructions in the post itself.
