The Moving Event
Outside the buildings, tornado-force winds are tearing around unpredictably inside the dome; they seem to whip in one direction, then the next; stop completely in one second, then reappear even more intense in the next. Every now and then there's a tremendous
boom, followed by more intense winds.
For those of you who stay in the shelter, which is underground, you'll barely notice anything out of the ordinary -- except for the occasional flicker of electricity almost, but not quite, going out. Those of you in the aboveground buildings will get the nervous pleasure of very creaky buildings that don't muffle much sound, and breathing can get difficult.
Sentinels remain in their usual numbers in places like the hospital, the pet shop, and the club. But the bots that normally patrol around helpfully are much fewer and far between.
Those of you who venture towards Sector 5, ignoring the warning, will find that a large, large area even bigger than the graveyard has been cordoned off and is being patrolled by the missing bots and extra sentinels. The area beyond those limits is crowded with bots, but anyone seeking to pass despite the polite warnings of the remote units will be tazered and removed. This area is strangely impossible to teleport to -- and the winds here are even stronger.
The OOC Move
We're going to InsaneJournal, and most of us should be moving
this week. Next Monday's day post will take place on IJ! After that, all posts should go on IJ. So here's the details:
1) Keep making new threads this week, and finishing up old ones on Inksome, but get them wrapped up as soon as you can -- we can't archive perfectly until we're all done here. Please notify us of any unfinished threads from earlier than last week.
2)
Register a journal on InsaneJournal (it doesn't have to be the same name you used on Ink) and join
the IC community and
the OOC community.
3) Post a comment
on this post filling out the following for each of your characters, just like you would on the Taken page:
LEAVE THE TEXTAREA TAG, IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE THERE, OKAY? OKAY.
Feel free to also let us know if the info on the
current Taken page is out of date/if you want different contact info/whatever. If you're dropping, let us know so we can drop you "during" the move.
4) Reserves and applications will still be taken on Inksome, and will be retained when we switch over. Wanteds will
not be retained;
submit a new Wanted if you are still looking for canonmates.
5) It's perfectly okay if you're not ready and waiting next Monday with your journal ready to go. We have an IC excuse for why some characters arrive late, and others not at all. Whenever you're ready, make the switch and let us know what your journal is. Just don't expect any further activity in the Inksome communities.
Bonus) Got any suggestions for new places/things? Want a malt shop for your wacky kids to share a romantic date? Speak up and let us know, Locale is getting a makeover!
Volunteering) We should have enough people to archive, after we contact the last of the people who volunteered last time, but just in case, if you're up for it, speak up.
