Hey gang. It's like... a monthly Dresden moderator newsletter. I tried to keep it brief; I'm horrible at that. Please skim...
Mod Journal Changes
I added a bit to the university section on the classes and scheduling page. Just a bit more clarifying and background. I also added and changed a bit in wands; I didn't like how flexibility worked, I'm retooling it. If you want to change your character's wand accordingly please feel free. You may have noticed I tweaked around the characters page. The original layout was too hard for me to maintain when adding new characters, so I switched it up. The add all button and contacts have been updated, please give them a once over.
Question
Are we event-ed out for May? We have a St George's Trip scheduled for Sunday, but we can pretend it happened and not make it an event if we're already burnt out on events (from prom, after-prom, quidditch/quodpot tryouts). There's another trip in June that we can play out before the school year ends and we head into summer play. Let me know in the comments. If no one comments I'll assume we're burnt out.
Birthdays
I have been puzzling over how to handle birthdays in this game since we added them into the game calendar. As such we missed Leland's birthday (sorry Beckany). Sass and I cooked up an idea that Cinna (being queen of the events committee) would send out an email at the beginning of each month with a birthday sort of bulletin, which would keep it streamlined and in the comm. If you wanted your character to send presents to another you could use the owling tag or play it out in a thread on or near that character's birthday. I can also make a birthday tag if we want to keep these things together. I think this will make birthdays more unique and keep them in with the spirit of the game. (PS- I'm dreading how to post quodpot/quidditch results when that comes around).
Adult Characters and the Limit
Thus far we only have two officially played adult characters in the game. What I'm thinking is I might up the character limit to 7 if your seventh character is an adult (such as a shopkeeper in St. George's, or an adopted faculty member). And you could certainly play more than one adult below a 7 character limit if you wanted. This really only affects Becky and myself, so I'll talk it over with her (and the limit as it stands is mostly just to keep me from going crazy making characters; you guys know how I am).
I made ICONS
They're not the best, but I made house icons (from the lovely crests Sass made for us) if you'd like to use them in your personal journals for school pride.
