First weekly plot discussion post!

Hey, all! This is the start of a new weekly thing we've devised to help players take a more active role in plot organization and planning.

Basically, here's how it works: These posts will provide a place to discuss upcoming plots, propose plot ideas to your fellow players, and generally just brainstorm and organize for things. You will be allowed to volunteer to help OOCly with plots as well. Note, however, that these threads will not be a place to sign up your characters for plots. Those posts will go up on their own before the plot in question starts.

What you can do:
-Discuss upcoming plots (whose threads will be posted soon after this post goes up) and volunteer to help OOCly
-Propose plot ideas to the game at large. (Use the form from the plot suggestion post to make things easier)
-"Adopt" a plot from the plot suggestion post (linked below). If there is a plot on the plot suggestion post you'd like to see run, start a thread for it in here.
-Propose ongoing setting changes. For example, you can propose a new crew "team" like Starfighter Command and the Outsiders, or perhaps starting a new service for the crew like the blacksmiths and the clothier's shop.

Also, for clarity's sake, in each of these posts we will be including instructions on how to get a plot approved, which have now been simplified.

Getting a plot approved:
-All plots that take place off-ship or involve at least a moderate number of people must go through mod approval first. If you're not sure, email us and see if it would qualify.
-While we'd like you to use these posts to discuss your potential plots with your fellow players, if you'd prefer not to include it in plot discussion posts for any particular reason (for example, particular details of the plot you'd like to keep hidden), posting your plot in the plot discussion posts is not necessary to get a plot approved
-To get a plot approved, use the form listed in the plot suggestion post and email it to transmigration9@gmail.com, along with links to any plot discussion threads you believe have relevant ideas. You will be emailed with an approval once the mods have reviewed it and find it satisfactory. Once you have received an approval, you will be asked to help us determine the best time to run the plot.

Oh, I kind of like this one. Children. Children everywhere!! And Medic is just the type to be easily annoyed by them~
Deaging him wouldn't make much of a difference, because he's already old anyway and by the end of the plot probably STILL would be an adult, so... He'll just be there. Having his patience strained. Trying not to (try to) murder someone.

WELL by the end of it...yes. I imagine there will be many children :P (And actually, Medic is in Medical, yes? At the beginning of the plot, Medical is going to have some involvement, since they'll be the ones suddenly inundated with people who have apparently started forgetting their own backgrounds, etc etc)

ALSO as the rate of deaging is completely up to you, you could still end up with someone really old being a kid by the end of it. You'd just need a really really fast rate XD

Actually, no. He isn't in Medical, since so far he was lacking any sort of IC reason to join and, being the little sadist he is, actually rather dislikes healing/helping people... But by now he is almost willing to join out of pure boredom :?

I... Think it's better for him not to deage. Really. Given the time he grew up in and... Yes. We wouldn't want him to start greeting people in the certainly most inappropriate available D8
livestoannoy: (Hah!)

Aaaaaah, I see! Well, if he's in by the time this starts he could join in on that front, if not...yay children everywhere? XD

It's up to you!

Well. I guess he'll be in by then.
