OOC INTRO: AUGUST

State of the Game
Hello and welcome to our newest arrivals! And to those of you checking in on the state of things - welcome back! Last month, you all got the option to learn what it was like to be a merperson of sorts, and uncovered a sunken city with remnants of a long-lost people. Come August, the Jormun will be dispersing once more, but remember that they're always a shell-call away, if you ever feel like contacting them for any reason!

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 August 4th. Until then, a few quick points:

1. New Island. As we pushed back the emergence of the last island in this voting round, it will be coinciding with this month's intro log. New arrivals will be arriving on the new island, so be sure to read up on the island's OOC info post! It'll be relevant to the state of things when you show up, if you're new.

2. Network Functions. As of a generous donation from Kravitz (deathfindsaway) and Chara Dreemurr (achievementhunter), the LifeAftr network now has a notes function! This is a rather simple upgrade, and just means it's possible to create and store messages without having to immediately send them. But it might make it easier to draft things and send them as attachments! This information will be available on the FAQ as well.

In the meantime, feel free to use this post as an OOC intro and CR meme for the month of August - 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.

Tell us about yourself: I'm EST and I keep earlier hours because of trying to be polite to house mates. I have no idea what my tag speed is. It varies on a lot of things, but I like to finish threads, so backtagging is the best!
Character: Mikumo Guynemer ikenai
Permissions: Post
Tell us about them: Mikumo is the frontline singer of a group of space idols. They travel the galaxy singing to help people who get space rabies, and try to avoid being killed by some guys with weird hair attachments. Mikumo spends a lot of time alone, singing and snooping into things and she never answers questions when she can just tease you. Her number one priority is always singing.
Current plans: Mikumo is probably going to have a really hard time adjusting to the no-tech life. Her entire life is about tech, but so long as she can sing, she'll be okay. I want her to meet a lot of people and eventually to start to give concerts. She'll be the first idol on the islands or something. I'm okay with negative CR too, so if you want to be awful to her, let me know!
Anything else:
