HOUSING

[thecanopycrew]

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!

Okay. Either Shirou mun (I have to talk to him) or I'll set something IC and OOC about the food portion division for everyone with the purchased bacon and egg plus the arrangement to make a storeroom for the future in the second floor, this means they'll visit every room, and all the places, to ask their preferences (raw ingredients or a meal/some meals, depending how rations can be split) Saber will be around talking about this matter in person (it can be played or handwaved as "they talked about it or "heard it from my roommate/acquaintance" before jumping on the gathering log?).

How does this sound? Saber has a lot of things already listed to address in the gathering, housing is just one of them.

Edit: I forgot. Those who wanted to cooperate with ice-cooling powers for the raw ingredients, please tell me if it's ok. So we can organize it. I know Rin is going to make some coolers.

I was told by the mods that Rin would have to maintain anything she freezes once a day, so I don't really see how mixing/matching magic to keep things cool is a good idea? I know it's just ice magic, but varying levels of it could just end up ruining food. Like I get you're trying to be helpful, but I just don't see the point in having multiple people freeze the same thing.

(Which I'm perfectly fine with playing out too as well so...)

[knight_king]

That's a good point. Rin should explain this things to Saber ICly because I doubt she understands this.

[gandere]

No worries, there's just a lot of things to factor in and plans are changing constantly via IC/OOC methods. It's difficult to keep up.

Let me see if I understand this correctly…

1. Since everyone will be purchasing more food in the future, a storehouse will be built to hold the food and keep it cold.

2. The food needs to be portioned out evenly. So Saber or another representative will go around asking the residents how they’d like the food to be divided/handed out.

3. And then everyone meets to discuss topics for that month, like the food results and housing situation, among other things?

Did I get all of that right?

So I guess the next question is: what will be done in logs, and what will be done over the amber?

[knight_king]

1. Not just food, but other items.
2. Saber won't take care of the food, it's not her field (this time she's involved as an exception), so any other character who is good at this stuff, will take care of it? Or a group of characters who also divide themselves this task (distribution, cooking, preservation etc). She's is proposing division of tasks and administration in general and not just food related.
3. Yep!

Hmm. Meeting face to face in action for the Gathering would be log style?

[princeandscholar]

All right, I got it. Thanks for clarifying!

I’ll add that my current character plot involves creating writing materials (paper and ink or equivalents). So if you need to keep written records of supplies, Orcelito will probably be able to provide the necessary writing tools in the future. (And may offer his administration skills as well, if they are needed.)

[knight_king]

No problem!

Here's the plotting post for this! Sorry for the delay. You can mention that plot there too! It sounds very cool, he could always bring it up in the assembly.
