The Future Location of Fandom High
Happy Sunday!
We modly types, as frustrated as you have been with LJ’s shenanigans over the last year, had been working on feasible back-up plans for our game and we finally have enough of the logistics worked out to share one with you!
While many of you may have taken the suggestion that we move to a commune as a joke, we took the time to seriously consider it. After a long debate on the matter, we've decided that the best course of action would be to purchase a few acres of property and give it a shot. Now, to make things more fair for our non-American players, we've decided to choose a location that can not be thought biased in one way or another.
Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia! Yes, it’s technically one of the coldest places on Earth, but we’re going to be spending most of our time inside anyway, and the dollar really does go further there.
Along with with land, we have also secured a goodly number of yak and steppe ponies for the use of the players. It may take a small period of adjustment, but we think that this sort of life will come easily enough to those of us who have roleplayed as characters from such settings.
In order to help you all with this move, we've gathered a few helpful links!

While we understand the burden of such a move would take time on the part of the players, we would very much like to have everything set up and fully populated before the second summer session. There are a set number of yerts available that have already been assembled, so any players who arrive late will have to build their own.
It's a big change, but we feel that, together, we can manage this!

And if so, can we make a law that the only comments allowed in Open Forums are "KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!"?

In unrelated news, I found the Russian keyboard and spellcheck on my iPad. In even more unrelated news, I would so move to any of the five choices. Like, yesterday.

The mention of woodchucks makes me want to suggest an alternate answer for the poll, which is that we pack up and go to illustrious Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania and hang out with the groundhog. But I'll be honest, guys, that place is a shithole.
Do I have to bring my own yak?
