sanctuaryrpg_oocHello lovely players!
Okay so there's been some discussion about the way we're communicating outside (and inside) the game.
Now - before we get started: The Mods would like to make it clear that all in and out-of-game communication is entirely at the players discretion. (With the exception of replying to mod emails. We'd really like you to respond to those, please and thank you!) No one should feel any pressure to communicate in a way they do not feel comfortable with or would have a negative impact on their lives/mental well-being. We all live in the digital age and we all know how overwhelming it can be to be flooded by these things.
So! These are our current ways of player to player communication:
Slack - general chat for all players.
OOC Comm - for anything game/player related, plotting, new character intros, hiatus notices, slowatus notices and the like.
Playground Comm - Memes, Character Tryouts, anything else we think of that's fun down the road.
Twitter - Twitter Tracker (thank you Lacy!) for all comms, personal twitter for players.
Mod Email - for game-wide announcements.
Couple of notes on those things:
Slack: If anyone is missing an invite and would like one, please let the mods know either here or in the modly email! There's already been one case of a players invite being eaten so it's possible you've had one and it's gone missing or been munched by an overzealous spam filter. Just to be clear though: THIS IS OPTIONAL.
Comms: Now again, this is discretionary, but we strongly recommend you track the game, ooc and playground comms. Especially if you decide Slack isn't for you. This way you don't miss any of the funtimes!
Here are the links to the tracking pages for each:
Main Comm
OOC Comm
Playground Comm
As a side note here, the OOC comm is probably the best place for plotting and general discussion about the game. This is where the Mods will be putting game announcements and such, so it makes sense to have it all in one place.
Twitter Tracker: Lacy!Mod the Tech Guru has made a great little twitter bot that picks up all the posts for the game on all the comms and posts a tweet about it with a link. For those that would like to follow it please click here.
Mod Email: The mods are here for any questions, comments, rants, flailing etc that you have and the email can be found here.
So that's what we have at the moment. If you have other suggestions we would love to hear them so please make them in the comments below! We're very open to change and we want to know what works best for you, so if you all agree on some other method of comms, then the mods will certainly look into it.
Thank you for your attention! As a reward, here are some corgis:
And a ferret trying really hard:
Cheers!
Rach - for the mods
