August Information and CR Meme!

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

IC Month

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

The thought of the month is "Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something".

This means: Any thread where you tag into another character's post or top level will earn you two bonus points during July and August.

Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during August AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC.

The ingredient of the month is coconut. Recipes are here. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom, refreshed at the platform, and characters are welcome to make other food with them.

This month’s chore assignments are:

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

The Train

As a reminder, you can list things that characters have added to the train here. Just comment under the header of the carriage to which you are adding. There is also a handy spreadsheet here!

When passengers return to the train after picking up new arrivals they will find sleeper carriage 5 has been removed- the four passengers from that carriage have been reassigned to different cabins, though no room-mates have been split up.

They is a slight change to the armoury- additional communal lockers- one for each team and a multi team locker. Information about that can be found on the settings page and the list of communal supplies can be found here.

Important Dates

This month’s event will be a train event running between the 12th and 17th of August.

The TDM will be posted on the 17th. Reserves will open on the 19th. Apps are between the 22nd and the 29th, and AC will run between the 23rd and 30th.

For a reference, please consult our calendar post. For player-led events, please see the player plot calendar.

Other Info

The shop has been updated with Large Items. Points have been updated on the roster.

Our new players (and old players who want a refresher) might find it useful to read gameplay before the platform. As always the mods are happy to answer any questions you might have.

Thank you as ever to both Ree and Nat for their help with NPCs in the last mission. A huge thank you to everyone who took part and who welcomed our 4th wall guests.

For anyone who missed it- please read over the consequence notes for the end of So Familiar a Gleam.

Little One/Buttercup | OC | Red Team

[personal profile] knifewithnoname 2021-07-31 12:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Character: Little One/ Buttercup/ B
About them: Small trainee assassin brought up by a cult of an evil god. Has been on the train a whole IC year. Is mid-existential crisis about working for good but also currently having a crisis about stabbing some friends whilst brainwashed. Has like 5 friends now and what is that even about???? Had an absolute terrible time on the last mission and would like to crawl into a hole and disappear now please and thank you.
Plans: She has hired out the fancy carriage for a week from Merriment 16 and will be hiding in there watching horror films and eating her weight... wait she's tiny, a giants weight in snacks until these feelings stop. I plan to do an open log sometime next week.
CR wanted: All of it? She is slowly gaining friends but she is good with allies and people she can try and manipulate into feeding her.
I always want evil characters to pick her up as a minion but alas this has so far not happened
Things to avoid: Nothing on my part but if her dialect annoys you feel free to Opt out
