Last night I went through and added all the new characters to both the dorms and townies comms. If you're new, usually someone will go through and tag the town/common room/grounds/whatever post with the location and whoever was in it. If not, I go through when I get a chance and make sure things are up to date.

Before anyone freaks out when they can't add their character: only maintainers can use a tag for the first time. Don't worry about it too much this weekend; I'll grab what I can when I can.

As a reminder, room posts go in personal journals, not the dorms. A list of locations for dorms tags is here, and townies is here.

And if something's wrong with a tag, you need one added, or have questions, feel free to ping me at chickwithemo.

This may look like a lot, but basically it's just here to try to pre-emptively answer any questions you might have, and to be a nifty reference tool. We love us some obsessive-compulsiveness when it comes to being organized.

Class Rosters for Spring Semester

Here we go! Due to overflow, not everyone got into their classes. Luke Skywalker and Liz Sherman missed out on Ethics. Prue Halliwell missed out on Spycraft. Billy Kessler missed out on Shop because we're not running that class this semester. Prue and Liz, you'll have to pick a replacement for your second class. Luke and Billy, you're welcome to add another but you don't have to as you already have 3 others to back you up. Just comment below with your choice of any of the classes that aren't full (Spycraft, Ethics and Criminal Justice) and I'll add you to the roster.

If you see your name somewhere it's not supposed to be or see a roster you're supposed to be on (and haven't been mentioned above), let me know by commenting below.

Radio and You!

Okay. Radio. Please to be explaining?


Now that the new characters are arriving on the island (and even though a version of this was linked in the awesome OOC how-to of Zoe's), I just wanted to remind you all about how conversations and actions end up on the radio.

IG, the pirate knows all through *handwavey* technology of handwaveyness. And the occasionally shrub-shaped outfit. And the squirrels who seem to have a drinking problem and a fondness for being bribed.

God, I love this game.

Anyway, from a more practical angle, the radio has a group of researchers who go through and summarize every post and every thread that all of you make every single day. There are ten of them and like, a bazillion of you, so they do a hell of a job. Yeah. Give them some serious love.

If you don't want something to be broadcast, please mark the post--if it's in a private room--with a NFB (not for broadcast) either in the headline, or at the bottom of the entry, and our researchers'll skip right past it. We'll also skip any post marked "private" or "OOC." You can also let us know that the people going in and out are mentionable, but not the contents of their conversations: we use this with the clinic's examining room and the Special Collections section of the library, just as a few examples. We've also been assuming that not even the pirate is foolhardy enough to have bugged the principal's office, but he will know who wanders in and out.

Because detentions are supposed to be private to those involved and not for the general entertainment of the student population, if it it's mentioned at all on the radio it's only in a "and there was detention" kind of way. We can neither confirm nor deny that students spent every weekend last year kicking Seely in the crotch :D

If your conversation is taking place in a public post (the park, the Perk, the gym, cafeteria, whatever) and you want the contents of it not to be for broadcast, mark the thread as such. Because it is in public, your characters will still be seen there but the *handwavey* technology of handwaveyness will have gone on the fritz, or the shrub will have gotten bored listening or whatever.

With the new influx of awesome and active characters, we are sorting through a good hundred plus threads of information every day--and those are on days when we're not having invasions or forming up mobs--so help us help you keep plotty things and secret relationships secret by marking your posts as NFB.

The pirate and his crew o' buccaneers thank ye!

And speaking of his crew, sign-ups are still open for any characters who would be interested in taking a turn at the microphone this semester or signing up to be a researcher. Mwahaha.
