Finchwood Academy - OOC

Hey guys!

This is just a reminder that we'll be closing the comms to new posts this coming Thursday, August 1st, so if there's any additional stuff you want to post, get on it! You'll still be able to reply to existing posts though, of course ♥ We also want to say thanks for coming along with us in this journey - we know it was a deviation from what a lot of people are used to doing, so we appreciated everyone's willingness to dive in!

Hi guys!

Based on this weekend and the feedback we got on this post, here's our plan! If you have any questions or concerns, just let us know.

The mods will continue doing obstacles and combat rolls through Wednesday (6/26).

Players will have until midnight on Friday (6/28) to wrap up their dungeons. Technically, players can keep tagging on these as long as they want, but this is the last day to write and wrap these scenes up before the game progresses.

For IC purposes, please assume that the last guardian will be taken down around the same time that the last Persona is recovered. Essentially, all of the characters will be ready to go for Gladstone around the same time and no group will be waiting around.

The mods will be posting the endgame finale on Saturday (6/29). This will be a narrative IC/OOC wrapping everything up with Gladstone and the events that've been happening around Haling Cove.

Also on Saturday (6/29), the mods will be posting an IC/OOC that encompasses the week after endgame and concludes with graduation. We will break it down by days of the week and players can play out any scenes they want here. This will be the final IC/OOC of the game.

Sometime in July, we'll post a future meme~ Please be kind to your kids after we've been so mean to them. ♥

Hey guys!! We wanted to give you an example of character's Shadow confrontation, so Rin has written up one style for you guys real fast. This is just an example, though - you're more than welcome to play this out in shorter tags with more spaces for interaction, like you're playing a mimic, or you can be less wordy than Rin was here and not even have any direct dialogue. It's entirely up to you, and don't feel any pressure to write too much! If you deny your Shadow you're in for a fight, but it's also possible for a character to simply accept that their Shadow is a part of them and it can go quietly. Rin has suggested here that there's a sort of pull to accept them, given that all of these kids have summoned Personas before, so feel free to use that to your advantage to keep your kids from just denying their trash-talking Shadows until the cows come home!

( Going to put this under a cut because sheesh, sorry for all these dumb words. )

Good morning everyone!

• Don't forget to submit your characters losing their Personas and groups by 11:59pm CST, June 8th.
  
• We'll post a reminder the day before the dungeons are due as well (June 11th).
  
• The way we have things set up we don't anticipate needing NPC mods, but we want to be ready just in case it turns out we do. If you'll be mostly available during endgame and wouldn't mind potentially doing a roll or two, or setting up a room, let us know here and we may call on you! This is significantly less involved than NPC mods were at Gooseberry given that people are running their own dungeons; it's more like environment modding than NPC modding.

Thanks!! ♥

Hey everyone! This is an important update with information about how endgame will work, and what stuff we need from you before the big adventure! Please read everything, and don't be shy about asking questions! ♥

Hey guys! We have a few things we'd like to bring to your attention!

• The deadline for submitting prom court votes is tomorrow, April 25th at 11:59pm MST.
  
• Prom is on Saturday!!! Please have lots of fun before everything is a nightmare.
  
• Speaking of nightmares, Sunday is a Shadow Post! Please submit your secrets by April 27th at 10pm CST.
  
• ALSO on Sunday, PCal is going up at 10am CST. This one'll be a little sparse as things gear up; we'll also give you some details about end game in the next week.
  
• For this month's PCal, there are a few spots available that we'll let anyone grab:
  
  • Apparently frustrated with the fact that they can't be crowned prom royalty, the freshman class has been holding an election of their own and posts the results in the cafeteria. The less-than-flattering titles of the winners include: Most Likely to Trip ([Character Y]), Ugliest Outfit ([Character A1]), and You Suck ([Character C1]). Ouch.
    
  • When [Character D1] heads into town to check out the boardwalk (it's just reopened during the week for spring!), they run into Aurora Sanders playing a game of ring toss. She challenges them to a game and they end up tying. Either she's really good, or all that training doesn't translate that well to midway games.

Omg this weekend is so busy.
