✦ An important note about the Masked Ball game happening tonight—participation in this game counts for activity, but due to the obvious anon constraints, please email the mods a link to your thread(s) if you'd like this to count towards your activity for this week, so we know to mark you down. Thank you!

✦ There is a Secrets Game coming up Saturday, September 28th at 3pm PST/6pm EST; turn-in for secrets and instructions at the linked page! There is also a Romantic Love game Monday the 16th, mingle at 5PST/8EST and game start at 6PST/9EST.

✦ Based on the feedback we have received regarding the win rate for knight memories, we're introducing some small changes that will hopefully make it a little easier for knights to ensure that they have some safety net with memory regains.

A lot of knights win memories at a pretty steady clip (even higher than some teams) while others are affected by (for example) the player's RL commitments that make it more difficult to make games. This is part of the OOC expectation of the knight role and win rates fluctuate so much for both knights and heroes that it's not really possible to guarantee an even or steady high rate of memory regains.

However, we're making some additions/changes to make it a little easier for the lowest-earning knights to make sure they're getting memories even if they're in a bad streak.

✿ There will be 1 knight game per month. While we had these occasionally before, they were not a regular thing. This means that there will be one extra game per month where knights can earn a memory without it being dependent on the team they're playing with. We'll also be encouraging at least some of these knight games to be take-home (to allow for more scheduling flexibility).

✿ If you've played in 3 or more games in a month (not including the loser game or knight game) and have won 0 memories, you can email the mods and get a memory outside the games (ICly something like, Maleficent or Beauty "finding" a memory because you put in the effort to play). Since there are usually 6-9 regular games in a month, this means that knights that make at least half to one-third of these games are guaranteed a memory if they don't win any of them.

✿ And of course, knights are always guaranteed a memory if they play in a loser game. We won't count a loser game memory towards the "3 or more games" rule above.

Please feel free to email us at aather.mods[at]gmail if you have any concerns about these particular changes! We are looking to try these out for a couple months, and if that time players feel that more changes are required or these aren't working out for you, please let us know.

It's okay, everyone but Flame is exempt. She knows how it is.

Clearly she has to come back soon just so she can gossip more about Chariot's love life.
