OOC INTRO: APRIL

State of the Game
Hello, and welcome, to both new arrivals and more seasoned explorers! The month of March saw adventurers exploring the new island of Cahypdo, making friends with the local people, the Roaka, and feeling that fertile earth move under their feet. Those of you who are new to the game or have not had a chance to do so already are more than welcome to trade with the Roaka - though we recommend you do so before this month's event.

We've loved the feedback we've gotten about the game thus far, positive and negative, and encourage you to contact us whenever you feel it is necessary!

Our intro log will be going up on the comms on April 4th. Until then, a few quick points:

1. Cahypdo. As the newest island in the archipelago, we recommend that anyone new to the game read up on the island of Cahypdo, due to its relevance in the intro log...and for this month's event!

2. Event Scheduling. Speaking of events, last month we held a poll to see how you would like to see us schedule events going forward. The uncontested conclusion was a preference for events to take place earlier in the month. As such, this month's event will start us off in that direction, with the event being held from April 10th to April 15th, with lasting consequences that will persist until the end of the month!

3. Dark Mode. Lastly, it was brought to us last month that our code is not very functional in dark mode. While the fix is fairly straightforward, LifeAftr has a fair amount of code to pour over in order to ensure all our pages are updated. We'd like to thank those who alerted us to the issue - and also encourage anyone to approach us if you notice a page, paragraph, or section that we've missed fixing up, once we've done so! We've already begun correcting a few pages, but we would be happy for anyone to let us know if we've missed anything.

In the meantime, feel free to use this post as an OOC intro and CR meme for the month of April - for new players to introduce themselves, for old players to meet and greet, and for general plotting to occur! If you want to chat or keep up with game updates, we also have both a plurk and a discord channel!

Go ahead and use the template below if you haven't introduced yourself already!

Say Hello With This Handy Dandy Template!

<b>Player:</b> <b>Contact:</b> Plurk, Discord, whatever it is you use, as well as if you mind if people add you! <b>Tell us about yourself:</b> Timezones? Preferred pronouns? Favorite dank memes? We’re all ears! <b>Character:</b> Character name and journal here! <b>Permissions:</b> If you have any permissions posts for character interactions or powers, here would be a good place to list them! <b>Tell us about them:</b> Nothing too fancy is required, but here's where you can list things like permissions posts and inventories, as well as a brief introduction/overview of your character and how they're adjusting to LifeAftr. <b>Current plans:</b> Looking for positive/negative CR? Been up to any exploration? Need to get out more? Remember that forming groups is the best way, ICly and OOCly, to start getting CR and affecting the setting! <b>Anything else:</b> You’re just going to use this section to post an awful gif, aren’t you. Well have at it, you shitposters.

lmao i wouldn't have it any other way. that's going to make their initial meeting really fun to play because she has Very High Standards for childrearing and she's definitely going to be Concerned

i hope it goes well and we don't have to plot like. a custody battle lol

and that's good to know! might be fun to have tim and toriel meet in the intro post if he recognizes her/already has an idea who she is, but i'm fine with just playing it by ear!

/tim voice "reese's cups are dinner right"



he's not THAT bad but he was a broke college student for a time he went from barely taking care of himself to now having to (pretend to??) take care of two kids AND himself on a survival island?? IT WAS A SHIFT,

it's fine he doesn't want to fight anyone over this It's Fine

[goat_mom]

she is going to teach you how to bake real food young man

and whew, that's good. it's probably going to be difficult for her to trust tim with her children at first but i don't really want to play out a custody battle anyway lol

[postictal]

HEY he's picked up a thing or two from running denny and spending so much close proximity to muffet, hence the learning to be a bit better!!

yeahhh he's definitely not the sort to...pick fights unless he's in a bad way, particularly not with people from the kids' past. that's their decision to make, not his!

[goat_mom]

she can still teach him how to cook! that'd be a good thread imo

and yeah, i don't know why i'm discussing it like it's not their (and the players') decision anyway and toriel wouldn't respect whatever they choose. i certainly don't want to step on any toes here!

[postictal]

LMAO well she's free to be judgy as she likes in tim's direction re: his poor parenting anyway

[goat_mom]

now that she absolutely can do
