a couple of things...
» Character Rule Change
We noticed that I, the resident airhead head admin, forgot to change the additional character rules in the front page. For that, I apologize. We did change that rule since to better fit the activity requirements for this new version of Magicians. Instead of requiring a certain amount of points, we will be requiring you to have a certain number of threads. To keep it simple, you are required two ongoing threads on your first character to request a second, and three ongoing threads on each of your current two characters to request a third. An advertisement blog is required for both.
» Dates in Social Owls
After seeing the response in the previous announcement, Social Owls: Need Your Input, we decided to completely omit the dates from the formats in both Whooter and Instahoot. We were thinking about making it optional, but considering the fact that we do not have a set way to tell time, having dates in every other post would confuse people that are not as active as others. We apologize to those who did like the dates, but for the sake of making things as least confusing as possible, we found that it was better to leave the dates out altogether. Which brings us to...
» About the Timeline
This is something that the admins have been going back and forth with, and have decided that it would be best to ask you guys what you think. In the first version, we used big events to tell time. This gave you guys flexibility to pace your threads to your liking, and place them wherever you see fit in the year. With that being said, we thought about having a set pace or a way to move through time in character. For example, we thought about having one day in real life time be equivalent to three days in in character. There were some people that said they wanted events, especially to use as a marker or a kind of checkpoint for where we are in the rp, which was what we used in the original version of Magicians. Other than that, we're a little stuck—what do you guys think? Please leave a comment below telling us what you think about the two ideas, or if you have a different one in mind. We would love to hear what you think!
» The Official Opening
The official opening date will be tomorrow on Friday, November 12 at around 8-9pm PST. Magicians will be open officially, which means that you guys would be allowed to rp, and the rest of the site will be able to join!
