Concerning the Location of the Game

[bigdamnprincipal]

Hey everyone! We wanted to take a minute before major zombie madness starts for an announcement.

A few weeks ago, the admins were contacted by the LiveJournal abuse team. In their e-mail, we received complaints about some of the publically posted underage sex in the game, and separate complaints from a handful of publishers concerning copyright of characters. In addition, it's become abundantly clear to us that LiveJournal's servers are not as robust as they used to be. There's been considerable periods of slowness, random error messages, and complete downtime that have made playing far more difficult.

With these two things in mind, we've decided that as of May 9th - the start of the summer semester - Fandom High will be moving to DeadJournal. We chose DeadJournal over the other services available because, well, it's dead, and this is good for us in two ways: one, everyone should be able to claim their exact same journal names over there, and two, with no one else really using the service, we won't have to worry about loads of users slowing the servers, or taking them down completely.

We'll have more information for you all as the moving day approaches, so for now, just mark your calendars so you don't miss the date!

Birthday List + Announcement

( Massive birthday list is massive. )

This may be the last month for the birthday list ... I'm getting bored with it and I figure most people have the info in their profiles anyhow, right? I think I'll do something new and cool to go with the upcoming game move to DeadJournal -- a Death Day list. To be added, please comment to this post with your character's anticipated date of death.

Thanks!

Announcement Regarding Our Players

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

Good afternoon!

Just a quick note that will impact a few of our players. After some careful discussion, we've decided that all players in non United States timezones will no longer be allowed at Fandom High. It's just too hard to coordinate timezones and the like around those of you who live in the future or in the past. We're going to allow you time to wrap up story lines but, unless you choose to move to the United States, your comm access will be revoked and you will no longer be allowed to apply again.

It's just easiest on us all. There are too many timezones and we just cannot keep up anymore.

Thanks for your time and patience with us! We look forward to working with all those just in the United States in the future!

ETA: Please see this comment for additional information on other character developments. We're hopeful this is going to be a great move for us!
