Some Important Modly Things (including Activity Check requirements)

Just some housekeeping things, but everyone should take a look at this.

1. Remember that your characters will be experiencing nightmares. This is every time they sleep, every time they nap. Nightmares involve them facing their worst fears and your characters will wake up shaken and confused. Basically, no one should be sleeping very well right now.
2. I'm going to be updating the comms every three days to reflect the current day of the game. Remember, 3 RL days = 1 In-Game day
3. Tyki and Kara are gone. In their places are a domino piece and a joker card that can be found in the Waiting Room. If anyone would like to find these pieces, let me know here, and I'll give you more details. First come, first serve.
4. Arrival scenes are optional, just in case there was any confusion about that. Especially people bringing in a second character, you know the drill, so feel free to skip to your character putting up an open post if you'd prefer to handwave the Skokan greeting.
5. Please take a look at this post about the upcoming plot. It is optional and your character does not have to participate, but I want to make sure everyone sees the post and has a chance to sign up. New characters, you are welcome to jump in!
6. THIS ONE'S IMPORTANT: Activity Check will be the last day of each month. Characters who arrived in the two weeks before the activity check will be given a free pass. Rather than assign a certain amount of required posts, all we'll ask is for you to provide us with a link to one log (not network post) where your character has been active this month. We know you're all intelligent and so we'll leave exactly what "active" means to you. If you're in one log and it's moving slowly, we're fine with that. It's not a fast paced game. If you link us to a log where you posted once three weeks ago and haven't touched it since, we might argue with your definition of active. If you won't be able to meet A.C. this month, please place your character on hiatus before the end of the month. Just post to the OOC comm with the hiatus tag and let us know.

Post here with any questions, I will respond to them as quickly as I can!

Where in the waiting room? Because Cho's been sleeping in the blue room. So if either of the pieces are going to show up there, it probably makes sense for her to find them.

Cho can find the domino. She'll see it in a chair, beside a spilled cup of the nutrient paste. It will call to her, so that when she walks into the room, she'll be drawn to it.

She can probably sense there is magic about it, given her time in Rowan.

I put up a network post about it. Did I get the right idea?

Volunteering to find one of the tokens left behind!

Great! Red can find the joker card. She'll find it in one of the bathrooms, in the shower room. When your character knocks, no one will answer, but the water will be running when she walks inside.

Kara's spare clothing and towel will be sitting on the bench inside the room, and a joker card will be on the floor. Red will be drawn to it. Despite the fact that the shower water has been running over it for quite some time, it appears to be unaffected.
