May Information and CR meme!

I hope everyone had a fun month! Some information for your ongoing journey.

IC Month

This month is the month of Fiddlesticks. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is “A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”

This means: Every thread in May or June where your character learns, or is learning something new will be worth 2 team points. This might be learning something new about a friend, learning a new skill or learning something about the train or a world.

Threads that fulfill this criterial can be submitted during June AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC!

Recipes are here. The key ingredient this month is bacon. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom and characters are welcome to make other food with them.

This months chore assignments are:

Purple: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Red: Meal Preparation
Orange: Laundry
Blue: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms

The Train.

As the month moves onto the month of Fiddlesticks the train will stop to pick up new passengers. When everyone rejoins the train they will find a new sleeper carriage!

They will also discover a change to the dining and kitchen facilities. They now cover two double carriages. One carriage is the kitchens- with one floor ovens and prep area and the upper floor washing up and more prep. The dining carriage now has two floors, both with a long wooden table and benches. More room for everyone!

They also will find a cinema

All of this has been updated on the setting. Remember to let me know if your character does anything to alter the setting!

Important Dates

This month event will be a mission event From the 9th to the 22nd May. An info and plotting post will go up on 5th May.

Reserves will open 18th May with a TDM going up on the 15th May. Apps are between 22nd May and 29th May. AC will run 23rd May to 30th May.

Other Info

Just a reminder about this character shenanigan post. This post is for those times you have an idea in mind that you believe will have consequences and be in the midst of writing the thread, however you want to know what those consequences will be for threads going forward. Or you might still be in the planning stages and would like to know how things might pan out.

It is also for letting me know if your character has done something noticeable that may have consequences. Or if your character is trying to interact with the train/the conductor in a way that is not through the network feedback post.

As we are a much larger game I would ask that you use this post as much as you can- I am liable to lose or forget about things shown to me on plurk or discord, whereas this post and an email notification means that I will definitely see it!

Monthly Plotting

Feel free to use this post to plot any thing you want for the next month! Here’s a structure you can use!

Once the new load of players is in I'm gonna put that post up so Garrett can buy a magic carpet. I MIGHT have Samata take up the training option for 47 too.

Fantastic! I am really looking forward to flying carpet shenanigans if just for the lulz. It's great. :D Also, I would love for 47 to teach Samata things. Yay!
les_magique: (We don't need to worry about that)

There's a limit to how effective Samata can be in hand to hand combat, since her prosthetic is basically just held on by belts and can get knocked off.

HMM. 47 can possibly help improve that down the line. He can definitely work with it as is and teach her around it. (He may also, eventually, want to teach her how to operate without it just in case. Because he is practical.)
les_magique: (Shut up I'm concentrating)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-05-01 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
She'd honestly be amenable to that! She's also working on the next version of her arm, which will be more responsive and generally better constructed. So that will improve things.

Nice!! She can recruit him to help if she wants. He's a half decent engineer. But he will be impressed either way! And then proceed to help her adjust to the new arm by running her through a bunch of drills. XD
