( 002 ) MOD ANNOUNCEMENT: STATION ROSTER & TIMELINE

[reveriemod]

Dear Reverie Operators,

This mod post concerns the introduction of a game timeline (more on that below) and the mid-month “mini event”, regarding information characters will receive access to ICly: on the morning of May 15th, all communication devices will give a chirp. Upon checking their communication device (or the nearest terminal, should your character have destroyed their personal device), characters will be faced with a choice.

REVERIE TERMINAL:
( 1 ) NEW MESSAGE. ACCEPT STATION ROSTER?
Y/N

If characters choose yes, THIS FILE will download to their device. Unlike the link, it will not be editable in itself. The sender is simply identified as "Reverie Terminal" and any attempts to trace the sender will only reveal that the message originates on the station. The date of the file is corrupted, but it certainly isn't newly created.

Characters are welcome to discuss this message on the network or in person, suggest themselves for particular jobs, figure out how selection procedures should work (e.g. is self-nomination sufficient, should there be voting, is it a matter of competence or of sheer strength) or disregard the station roster entirely and figure out their own way of life on the station. Fact is: the station needs maintenance and characters need to get organised somehow. It looks like they'll be on Reverie Terminal for a while yet, after all...

OOCly, should characters decide to use this roster, you're welcome to edit the spreadsheet to reflect the jobs your characters have chosen, were chosen for or have started performing. For most of these there is no reason why more than one person couldn't do the job (even station governor could be fulfilled by, say, an assembly of characters rather than one person) and characters are of course welcome to take on one or several jobs on a part-time basis or invent additional jobs. Moreover, some jobs will, at this time, be impossible or very difficult to perform due to a lack of access to the relevant information, areas or technology.

Feel free to use this post to talk about character responses, plot, etc.
If there are any questions or comments, please leave them under the designated top level below.

Additionally, there is now a GAME TIMELINE outlining events that may be of relevance to old and new characters alike as they shape life on the station, ask important questions or learn more about the station’s history. All information linked to or contained on the timeline is information characters who’ve been around can ICly know and that new characters can learn about by asking around or reading the network. We’d love your help in keeping the timeline up to date and relevant. Please see the linked post for more information.

That’s all for now from our side but as usual, don’t hesitate to let us know if there’s anything that’s unclear or that requires our attention.
