Day changes, updates and things to do!

[aungier_mods]

As you may have already noticed, the day just changed in the main community with a few things worth noting for the day.

First of all, the house currently feels unbearably humid. The day is already very close, but due to the cold weather Lady Valdemar will complain whenever she comes across an open window. Secondly, throughout the day, characters may start to feel increasingly sleepy or tired; by the end of the day, servants are likely to be dead on their feet. For characters who don't live or work in the house itself, the effects will be less pronounced but still noticeable.

Thirdly and most importantly- the matter of the broken automaton! Today, one of Lady Valdemar's three automata will be found malfunctioning in the house; this leaves room for anyone who wants to find and interact with it to do so, but more to the point it also means that characters with the right expertise will be asked to repair it, or to sit in on the job. We'll be putting up a log for characters to get involved soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that.

And, finally, as a reminder: there's an event coming up for the next IC day, which we'll be addressing around the weekend. If you have any questions, drop them here! We'll get to them ASAP.

another update

[aungier_mods]

Hi! This is just a short update on what's been going down: we messed up. We were unclear with players and with each other on what was and wasn't acceptable in AU histories and ended up applying uneven standards to apps- which resulted in confusion and upset for our players. We're a new game working through an untested game mechanic and none of us have ever modded before, and so weren't really sure what people were going to throw at us. That doesn't excuse the mistakes we've made, but we're all committed to learning from them and not making them again.
