applesaucemodGreetings, Adventureketeers You Beautiful Tropical Fish My Adorable Apple Dumplings! Carrie, here, on behalf of the Modly Hivemind.
So, I'm sure you're all aware that there is a whole heck of a lot going on in the game right now. Many of us are currently backdating up a storm, which is great! But because there's so much happening, it's been suggested that we put the calendar on 'pause' for a little while. That will give everyone a chance to finish their threads and catch up with the In-Game date, rather than continually backdate ad infinitum.
In addition to that, we're thinking of changing the game's date ratio from 3:1 to 4:1 - that is, four IRL days for every one day IG. That seems a bit more in keeping with the general pace we've established as a group. Should forward-dating become necessary (the novelty!), we'll allow it, no fuss.
The current plan is to freeze the date during our next dream party, currently scheduled for this Saturday, July 5th (IG date: July 3rd). Those of us not playing catch-up will have a nice, expansive dream party to goof around in for a while, so that should keep things interesting. And perhaps we'll come up with a fun Event for the 4th to kick things off again.
Here's what we'd like from you:
- Thoughts on how long the pause should last (in real time). A week? Two weeks? Let us know how much time you think you'll need to get your ducks in a row.
- Opinions on the ratio change. Are you on board with the idea? Any concerns? The Modly Hivemind is listening!
