OOC Info The Common Room

[Paragon]

Two class-based threads, or one for each class, depending on which is more. In your case, I presume that's four, so I'd like to see a class on each subject before the end of the month

[Paragon]

I just want to remind players who are asking a lot of questions - there is a Player's Guide, and more important, a Student Player's Guide. They actually answer a LOT of the questions being asked both in this thread and via PM. PLEASE READ them THOROUGHLY before asking questions. I'm always more pleased when players have done their homework first. Thanks!

homework? what do you think this place is? =p

Hey guys,

A few new locations are up - NPC's to come.

I hope you're all enjoying the seasonal quest, I'm going to ask for some feedback at the end of it, on how I can improve next time, so get some opinions ready

Your DS,
Paragon

So, basically, you're all awesome. The seasonal quest is thundering along, and I'm so glad that so many players chose to get involved - I couldn't have asked for more. As this was my first "quest", or plot, I want some feedback to see what I can improve on next time. Obviously there's no point filling it in yet, as the seasonal quest isn't finished, but over the coming weeks I'd like you to think about some of the answers you can give, because hopefully your ideas will develop as the plot flows. When the plot's finished, I'd appreciate feedback forms in my inbox. It will help me make Zeltiva even more fun in future! Thank you. Feedback form: What did you most enjoy about the quest? (Answer here) What did you least enjoy about the quest? (Answer here) How would you improve the quest if it was done again? (Answer here) Did you feel like you were able to play a part in the quest? (Answer here) Did you feel Paragon posted enough, too little, or too much? (Answer here) How much freedom did you feel you had within the quest? (Answer here) Rate the quest overall (with 1 being terrible, and 10 being fantastic) (Answer here)

I'll be posting for the Seasonal Quest next on Thursday - so you've got two days to post away before it all gets... messy .

[Paragon]

Sorry, the next post for the Seasonal Quest is taking a little more planning than I thought. I promise I'll have it up sharpish

[Paragon]

So if you hadn't guessed by the title change, the Winter Ball is the first part of an ongoing Zeltiva plot line, entitled 'Darkling Tides'. The plot will run into Spring, and possibly Summer too, with each quest being an "act". I will give you more info as we get closer to each quest, but I hope you're all enjoying the current one.

The front page of the Winter Ball also now has a snazzy banner - check it out!

IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ:

In hindsight I should have stopped class registrations when I became DS, until the season change, but we'll work with what we've got now. Since so many people are signing up to classes with only 3 weeks-ish until the new season, we'll say that all classes registered or finalised with ME will last until the end of Spring, rather than this season.

This is NOT the normal procedure, since classes are usually a season long, beginning at the start, but I think this will make it easier for everyone.

So to summarise. Rather than your classes ending at the end of this month, they will continue until the end of May, and THEN you'll be eligible for seasonal XP. This should make it easier to complete thread requirements in time too.

If you're unsure of anything, PM me. This rule change does NOT apply to those who registered for classes with Oracle before I became DS. If you started registration with Oracle, then it was finalised by me, you ARE eligible for the extended time.

Apologies if this is confusing, but I hope this makes it easier on everyone, myself included.

Yours,
Paragon
