8-20 Newsletter

Okay, time for your weekly, or rather two-weeks worth of news updates. The last two weeks have been relatively quiet...but that just means more noise this week! >D

***

FORUM CHANGES
(Now listed by AU, so hopefully it's a little more concise)

Le Carnaval
- Kiku will be working with a few of you to flesh out the location of the club a little better, as well as what is on each floor. This might not happen all in one week, but it is in progress.
- Plotting for larger things (i.e. attempted robbery of the club, theme nights) should be posted up in the Plot Central board.

Of Magic and Owls
- The next two classes slated to go live are Transfiguration and Muggle Studies. All are welcome to join, regardless of class and year.
- Plans this week will begin to start up Frog Choir. The official start to this class is still n/a, but the plans are at this point in progress.
- Those welcome to join the classes will always be posted in the first post, for future reference.
- The 'Classrooms' thread will be updated with the list of classrooms/class locations, including those not taught in typical classrooms (i.e. Dueling Club)

The Seven Seas
- There is a poll to name our third and final location in Pirates, located HERE. Please cast your votes, or come up with (way more) creative names of your own.
- The RULES have been posted. Please read over them and follow them when RPing in that AU.
- Next to be finalized is the Jobs Aboard the Ships thread, which is still labeled WIP at this time.
- If you'd like to have a rule added or have an issue with a rule, feel free to post in the Plot Central thread.
- The Ships subboards (i.e. The HMS Black Rose) will be consolidated under a subboard, similar to the look of Hogwarts School. There will also be a thread created for the submission of a new ship.

X-Verse
- Please continue to give your input (or give, if you have not already) on the following threads.
POLL: http://theworldscollide.friendhood.net/t723-poll-choose-your-side#5218
X-MEN: http://theworldscollide.friendhood.net/t724-x-men-assemble#5219
BROTHERHOOD: http://theworldscollide.friendhood.net/t725-for-the-brotherhood#5220
- The locations in this AU are slated to change and be fleshed out this week with more detail.

OPEN RP RECOMMENDATIONS

Here is a list of some of the AUs/Open RPs you might consider joining if you're looking to interact with more people or are just starting out. These have either started this week, or are seeking out more RPers (the more the merrier~!):

Of Magic and Owls - Dueling Club
Of Magic and Owls - Care of Magical Creatures
Of Magic and Owls - Exploring Hogsmeade
Of Magic and Owls - Welcoming All to Hogwarts
The Seven Seas - Random Happenstance
X-Verse - Kiku's Flowershop (Haru no Hana)

Have an Open RP you'd like to have us advertise next issue? PM me and I'll throw it on the list!

NOTICEBOARD

E-mails will be sent out by Kiku in the next two weeks to a few members. If you receive an e-mail, please respond as quickly as possible. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Don't forget to join Open RPs as well as continuing to be active in your private RPs! We encourage you to take part in both, in order to interact with everyone!

If you have any suggestions or descriptions of places to be considered for the plots of the AUs (i.e. X-Verse, Carnaval, Medieval, etc.), please post them in the Plot Central boards, NOT in the other boards. This is so the descriptions can be discussed, cleaned up, and modified to fit the rest of the layout of the board. If your post has been moved, it has been moved to the Plot Central board, located under the 'Basics' board in each AU.

QUESTIONS? SUGGESTIONS FOR NEXT ISSUE?
Feel free to drop a PM in my box. For now, I'll be signing off!
