HOUSING

The mods would like to formally apologize for the small hiccup in the change of housing. We acknowledge that we forgot a person in house six and that made some issues with the choice of houses.

However, we would like to remind people that this is a social game and one of the points in it is that houses will not be enough for everyone in order to force people to solve quests and go on adventures to unlock more floors and more living space.

No character is supposed to be able to keep a house to themselves; that would ICly force other people to sleep on the ground, and that would create IC conflict - this is also part of the game. It also means that casts may not always be able to stay in the same house. This is a good thing, because it forces interaction outside of the own cast.

Everyone should have a place to stay, if they so have to take a bed with force; some people may even have to share beds since there are more characters than house space right now.

We did not anticipate this to be as large an issue as it has to become, and again, we apologize. The game is only a month old and we are still working out some kinks.

That said, PLEASE COMMENT TO THE HOUSING PAGE IF YOUR CHARACTER IS ALREADY ICLY IN A HOUSEHOLD!

I like the idea of the gathering, but would it be something that someone would hold once a month (for when the newbies arrive?) I do like the idea of someone kind of keeping in mind areas that might need defended. Since there are some characters that might be ill-suited to being... on the front lines, I guess? Haha

I still like the idea of having an OOC page for discussion of things and finding housing. While I love doing things IC, I really think OOC communication is important as well.

Monthly sessions when they figure out the regular newcomer system sound good, and emergency sessions for quests or a something urgent?
