So just as an announcement if you haven't noticed, Tis A Silly Place has gone up here. You may tag into any part of it, mingle, questions for the king, the actual second part, what have you.

ALSO after this point, feel free to form up groups OOCly with friends for IC interaction, and make separate logs. But be sure to tag it with !plot: tis a silly place before you do. Part 2 will come after people have their fill, and an Encounter Post will go up for people to interact with famous faces of Holy Grail, and re-enact those wonderful encounters we all so love.

Thanks, and remember not to throw those Holy Hand Grenades!

EDIT: Also! If for any reason you want one of those infamous encounters in your own post with your group, just poke me so I can npc the hell out of them. Thanks!

actually, scratch the other bit. i know this is bad form, doing this like a week after i show up, but typing is officially physically difficult, and i am going to give this medication another week to settle and do a bit of a hiatus while i also stare at someone's dogs. re: shore leave, or any other meeting/shenanigans, if anyone wanted to thread with me, I WOULD LOVE TO BACKDATE WHEN I CAN FUNCTION AGAIN. pm if want?

will approach backtags during lucid moments. cheers o/

So, as you might have noticed the Shore Leave & Melting Clock Plot has begun! There's a few posts up already for people to tag into, including Stacy's announcement, an IC Q&A down on the planet, and a general milling around post set in a bazaar. But, as of now you can just make your own posts for Shore Leave! Just remember to tag them with !plot: shore leave. Everyone's also been provided with 3000 XaXingian credits, which is probably around $1000 US dollars. But you can always sell your kidney if you run out.

For people playing NPCs: You can find the details for the passwords to the NPC accounts here. This is a locked post, so please remember to log in! Once you have accessed the accounts, you can just start up a new log for them, or tag into any other posts (if OP is happy for you to do so).

Finally, the post that kicks off the Melting Clock plot is up! The clock is in possession of Peepers/Jeepers, who is being NPC'd by Allen (and I'd also like to thank Allen for helping me out with this). If you've signed up for the plot and you're character is getting affected at the beginning, you don't have to actually thread this out if you aren't able to - it's perfectly fine to handwave it.

And for the people who have signed up for Melting Clock, a very, very important point - do not show any of the effects of the Clock until after Shore Leave is over. You can assume that some deaging has happened once they have heard the clock chime if you like, but you can't have anyone actually notice any changes.
