Please do not contact mods individually regarding game issues! By keeping player concerns on the mod account, we are better able to keep track of them and respond in a timely manner.

If you are submitting your concern via e-mail or to this entry, please fill out the following form:

<b>[ Player Name ]</b> <b>[ Characters ]</b> <b>[ Type of Concern ]</b> Is it a player issue? Game? Character? Mods? Something else? <b>[ Details of Concern ]</b> We request that you be as detailed as possible and provide proof or examples of what caused the concern. The more information we have, the better. <b>[ Contact ]</b> Best way to contact you.

All comments are screened and our responses to your comments will also be screened, so we can communicate through the entry if preferred. Everything will also remain confidential, but if another party is involved please realize that we will have to disclose some information if we have to contact them. We'll always double check before doing so, but please keep that in mind and make a note if there is anything you are uncomfortable with sharing.

We will try to be as fair as possible and do as much research and as many discussions as needed.

Responses will be given within 72 hours. In the case that we haven't responded to your query past this time, please send us a message! Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback!

While we do our best to write a wide variety of prompts in order for different character types to take part in them, if you see a lack of certain kinds of prompts or have any ideas for the task board, intro log, or even the TDM, you are more than welcome to suggest these ideas via this post. The team who works on prompts can't properly assess what the community needs without feedback, after all!

It is not the mod team's intention to punish players when we schedule our events during the last week of the month. We certainly don't wish for players to feel pressured to tag quickly, either! We suggest getting in touch with your fellow players to plot what may happen in your threads if you think it may impact future threads and the like. If the concern is how CR is affected, we believe this is something to be discussed between fellow players. Unfortunately, as for the game moving on before threads can be finished, this issue is not something we can control. Our game runs on a 1:1 IC:OOC day ratio, and we do not see any need to change it any time soon. We hope you understand where we're coming from as moderators and players of the game, as well.

We apologize if you feel as though you have to make a choice between participating in events and making activity early. However, we do believe that our limited requirements, the size of the game, and the number of open entries typically posted are more than enough for the sake of activity even outside of events.

Intro logs and events being posted with only one or two weeks in between has caused issues in the past with new players, as they are usually very busy with their intro threads for that period of time, judging by the general trend we have seen in activity. Posting events much earlier than we currently do would feel unfair for them and to those who tag into the intro logs to be able to participate in the game to the fullest. As such, we have endeavored to make sure that major game developments are spread out in order to make them accessible to all players, old and new.

We do appreciate the suggestion of making the intro logs more event-like, however, and we hope we can implement something similar in the future.

We hope we've aptly responded to your concerns!
