We are implementing a new policy for birthdays, which should be delightful, so everyone pay close attention.
To make birthdays abit more magical, we are allowing individuals to have a thread of their choice out of the timeline with whomever they choose on their birthdays.
There are some conditions that come with this:
1) Birthdays are for players, not characters. You get a thread per player birthday, not per character per player birthday or in the instance of individuals who give characters their own birthdays, per character birthdays. I will be keeping track.
2) You get twenty-four hours to play out your thread, beginning at midnight on the day it is implemented (in your time zone) and ending midnight the next day.
3) If you do not want to play it on your birthday, you can alert us of this ahead of time. You have two weeks to claim it, and then the above condition sets in. Speak to staff ahead of time to make sure you are getting your full twenty-four hours and thus can postpone it. No claiming early birthdays.
4) Free day rules apply to this, in terms of god-modding and courtesy. Please no god-modding and please be courteous. Fun is fun and fun is fair.
5) Label the thread as "birthday" when you make it. Either in thread title or as an OOC note in the first post. So we know what is happening and do not have our eyes bug out without proper warning labels.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Post a reply here or use private messages or Yahoo/AIM/ICQ.
Happy Birthday everyone.
And of course, if you do not want to participate on your own birthday, you do not have to.
