Alright. So a lot of you are coming to the conclusion that things are getting awfully... slow for lack of a better term. So the board has come together and we are developing a new schedule based roleplaying system that should dynamically update the storyline based on post frequency data that we've been accumulating. Here is essentially what we've discussed and are in the process of implementing in some sort of way:
-The Dynamic Storyline System. - A system designed around post frequency and dynamically adjusting the storyline using a new system of flexible storyline blocks. This requires a lot of cooperation from storyline writers/designers, RP Coordinators, and rolepalyers alike.
-Specialized Storyline Coordinator Scheduling - This is a system that we are seeing if we can get into motion. Its going to be hard given people's schedules, but if it is successful, it should be a powerful system. While we will maintain the standard coordinator assigned to storyline, we will also implement semi-master coordinators that oversee all active storylines and have someone assigned to each day so that they can periodically check PMs or chat messages to answer RP Coordination questions and give advice. This should alleviate the issue of coordinators not being on when someone needs them.
-GMDRPF V2 - Clarity was great while it existed... but we need to resort back to faster and more (mobile) convenient posting techniques. The new Post Format will be more flexible, and allow different scenarios based on by what means you are posting. We are merging the concepts of ICPF V3 into GMDRPF V2.
So that is the confirmed aspects of our plan. Hopefully we can take things into action as soon as possible. I want to also give you guys a few words of advice.
- Even though activity has taken a recent dive recently, we are still here. Even if some people have to cut out for a bit, the IiD RPN will exist (Although its kinda limited to MDR, we need an absolute time block to seriously jump start MDE. The post when you can format does not work with new role plays).
- People are busy. A lot of people are entering college and have not yet been able to settle into their new schedules. Its going to be tough, but give people time to adjust. Some people are faster (or slower) at adjusting. Its okay. Take your time. No pressure.
-We WILL get through this. We have every intention of getting through the rough first few months of the academic year, through the semester, through Mitsuko's Birthday event, and into the holiday period. We need to cooperate and just come to terms with the situation.
-A nice way to ensure progress happens, is to have progress in mind. If you want to have an un-designated branch scene ARRANGE IT WITH THE PARTIES FIRST! Ensuring a block branch can happen for consistency is a stretch but it does not breach RPP/RLP (we seriously need an all encompassing acronym). If you do not, delays may happen. This is a suggestion mind you, but for the sake of progress... try to aim to stay on track with the storyline. Right now, in every scene (except maybe MS3) we want to aim for a CR
