Mod Post

Hello Deerlings! As many of you know, our October Prelude was posted earlier to help people with planning. Many players have appreciated the additional time and some have asked if the actual events could be posted ahead of their technical "start dates" - however we do not want players to feel overwhelmed with content either.

We would like to hear everyone's feedback on whether they think this would be helpful as a whole or if it would feel overwhelming.

The general idea would be that we post events ahead of their "start dates" as well as plotting posts so people could get their ideas and plans ready ahead of time rather than our current system where we post the event on the actual start date.

Let us know your thoughts and opinions in a comment below or vote on our poll!

Would this mean that event log posts will go up but wouldn't be available to be commented on until the start date?

Is there an option to post the plotting post early, so people can get their plotting done, then post the event log on the date itself? I feel like that's what I would prefer.

I honestly love how the prelude was set up because people can jump in and forward date threads ahead of time incase their castmates or CR get busy-- especially with the coming holiday season. This way, we didn't feel pressured to do everything in a short period, and since we're already pretty backtag friendly it's really working out.
