>>>SIM SUPPORT<<<
As you know, Player Two is on vacation until the end of the month. She will be checking in with us on Discord from time to time... but until she's back, Abi has her hands full! So if you message and it takes a little longer that usual to get a response, please be patient! Or.... reach out to the newest members of our staff!
Our newest addition to Sim Support is Harry Longfoot. He and Zera are here to handle player needs and lend a hand with all things bori- ahem! I mean, administrative! Welcome aboard and may the odds be ever in your favor!
Our new Storytellers are:
Sebastian Urriaga de La Vega (Seb)
Marie Beaumont
Dakota Preston (Kota)
Judah Kilroy
They're here to help keep this place interesting! If you have an idea for an event or story, don't be afraid to give any of them a shout. Welcome - it's a relief to have such wonderful people on the team!
>>>EVENTS<<<
We wrapped up not one, not two.... but THREE events this week! We had our full moon event, a music event at the Brewery, and an OOC movie night! We've had a great week - thanks to everyone who came out and participated!
Sunday, July 21st - Roleplay 101
Newer to roleplay? Looking to brush up your roleplay know-how? This class is for you!
Come by The Komrade today, July 21st at 2:00 SLT. Audrey has kindly (and bravely!) volunteered to give us some helpful tips and tricks for some fair, fun roleplay etiquette! We hope to see you there!
>>>MASQUERADE AND YOU<<<
Honestly, this is one we didn't think we'd have to discuss so early on, but as a not-so-gentle reminder, please review the attached card regarding supernatural appearances in Wailing Rock. Keeping masquerade here is not a polite suggestion - it's something you agreed to when you checked that little box on the application! Please, be kind and follow the rules. People are already callling for YeetFest 2019. ;)
>>>WEBSITE<<<
Honestly... nothing new to report here! Though we'd like to remind folks to please scrub your roleplay logs using rplogcleaner.com prior to submission. Thanks for your cooperation!
>>>ROLEPLAY<<<
We've seen some really great RP happening this week! Don't forget, if you want XP for it, make sure you're submitting it via our website. If you need help, contact Sim Support.
Also, let's talk briefly about Events here. If you host an event, please plan ahead! If you need anything from Sim Support, give them ample time to get you whatever it is that you require. Thank you for understanding!
>>>EXPANSION<<<
You spoke, shook your fists in frustration, started living out of cars, and begged for more housing... also, you came in droves, and we were not ready! We've been open less than a month and already, we've had well over a hundred new players come through here!
So after getting over the shock of our booming population, we decided to expand! What does that look like? Well... you'll have to wait and see. I can promise you though, it WILL NOT compromise the current aesthetic of the island. Lots of residences, with a few new RP places sprinkled in... and an expanded forest and underwater area. Timing is TBD, but we're thinking it will be complete within the next few weeks. We'll do our best to provide updates as we go. While we build, the new parcel will not be open to exploration. Thanks for making it necessary - we owe all of our success here to each of you!!!
Thanks again to everyone for another amazing week in the books! As always, if there's anything we can do to help you get settled in here, just give us a shout. Have a wonderful week and we look forward to sharing in your stories!
Abi and Two
