Hello you lot,
We are currently undergoing some changes. To keep all of the players up-to-date, here is what we have been doing:
Changes to the Forums
You will notice while browsing around, that some things look a little different in the forums. I have removed the boards for the Tournament, for starters. Also, I have a made this board - a category for announcements - whether it is adventures being run or updates from the team. You'll see those things go here from now on. The Q&A Board has been moved from Out of Character to the Getting Started board. It simply made more sense for it to go there. I've also done some moving around - you'll notice that the categories have been shifted a bit - but everything is still there and the way it should be.
Adventure Time
The DM Team is going to start having scheduled adventure times outside of the random encounters. This way, you, as players, can guarantee yourselves some adventures a few times a week. Check the Calendar ( here or also below the banner, between "Search" and "Members") for those dates and times. Also, the will appear in red on the bottom of the forums pages with upcoming events.
Incomes
Yes, we know! You haven't be paid yet! In months! Well, fear not. Keith and I are working diligently to fix this. The DM Team has a new income ruling in the works that has already been approved. To make things a little simpler and more fair to everyone, we will be updating the sheets as we go along with everyone's new pay, but you will paid with your old income until the date that will listed on your visible notes, so that everyone will switch to the new system at the same time. Please be patient with us! We have about 350 characters that need to be switched onto this new income database. Yes! Over 350 Characters that are logged daily by players for XP. That's a big database!
Open Q & A
We will be opening up our DM Meeting this Saturday (03May2014) at 4pm EST for all players, for a Live Q & A with you lot. All are welcome to step into the DM Room and discuss any questions or concerns that you may have.
Other News
We are welcoming a new DM, Douglas, to the team!
We are still revising some rules. Some of you have posted some PrCs would like allowed for play. We have, in fact, seen them - but at this time, we are not going to be voting on allowing them until we have finished modifying the current PrCs that need be fixed in order to remain fluidity of the setting and game.
Please submit your PC Backgrounds. Your backgrounds will help us devise Storylines and Scenes and give us extra content to work with throughout our adventures. Also, it is a great way to earn some extra XP. Did you know that we award up to 400xp for back stories? That can be 2-3 Adventures in experience! The more detail, the more XP. To submit a BG, FPM Adele so that I can read it and distribute your XP accordingly.
For now... that is all. As always, Happy Gaming!
