Hello everyone! Notorious has officially been open for one month now! Thank you to everyone for your support and participation.
Every month, we're going to have a newspaper that summarizes what happened in all the schemes on the board for that month, and include a few other stories to explain more about the world. They will always be in the second post of the monthly announcement. Naturally, this includes this announcement too, so enjoy!
There has been some minor updates to some of the documentation to hopefully make certain things about how Notorious' unique mechanics work. The Powers thread and Battle Rules have been updated. It is now allowed to take a mulligan on your powers, moving your power types around freely, once within the first month after your character has been created. You can use this if you're unsatisfied with the power types you picked for your character. Characters already created as of this update may take a mulligan anytime in the month of May. See the Powers thread for details on how to do this.
A FAQ has also been created. A rule has been added to the rules as well, to hopefully clarify which threads honor post orders and which don't. Here it is copied from the rules:
8.) Notorious honors a post order. This means that in a thread with three or more people, everyone should post before people start posting again, and everyone should post in the same order. A person can be skipped at the discretion of the people in the thread, with five days being a more than reasonable amount of time to wait. Schemes and Event Battles are exempt from this rule due to having a more strict time limit on posting.
I want to stress that it is okay to skip people if it looks like they're flaking from the site, or just aren't posting in the thread. That said, if your partners are still around, please talk to them to figure out what to do when someone is taking a very long time to post.
Everyone notoriety totals should now be updated for the month. If you don't think yours has been updated properly please contact all staff.
