Tidbits:
Originally, the format for posts did not have an empty line between actions and dialogue. This was changed soon after so that it would be easier to read.
If you notice, they way that Veli (Snuggleclumps) is addressed changes from person to person at the beginning of the plot. It changed from La Veli to Veli and vice versa for awhile before it was settled on just "Veli".
Originally there was only going to be two acts, the Summer one and then one in October. This changed due to the amount of things we needed to pack into the plot to explain everything that we needed to.
Madame Bovary's character was going to have a an entire subplot going on that delved into her relationship, or lack thereof, with Lord Rochester.
Lord Rochester was originally a priest at a cathedral in Durem.
The journals of Rosalind and Orlando contains several entries about their relationship at the beginning of Act I, this was going to be continued, but it was decided that people wouldn't think to look in them, so nothing important was posted in the journals.
All mule costumes were purchased by Mocha.
The character costumes for all of the mules cost a little over 250k.
Rochester's masque was the most expensive costume item.
At one point, almost all of the characters had a pair of emo glasses on before it was decided that was a little too odd.
The latest that Veli and I stayed up until 5:10 in the morning working on one of the parts.
We would use the plot in order to force ourselves to stay up almost all night in the Summer.
For the grand finale, it was originally planned to have threads in the guild actually "burn" down and have the first post in random threads replaced with an image of fire and the thread locked. It was quickly decided against this though.
While the overview of the storyline was planned out from the beginning, it changed from a day to day basis.
At first, it was planned to have Rosalind and Orlando working together, but after awhile it didn't make sense, so it was changed to Mocha and Rochester having been working together.
The finale of Act III had to be rushed at the end, due to a massive storm that was occuring in Mocha's vicinity.
The arrival of the subforums system in the guilds came just in time for the event.
Originally, Pheobe De Bois was going to fall in love with Rosalind, a not so subtle reference to Pheobe and Ganymede's relationship in the play.
During the NPC interaction, Gadow was seen to be hitting on a guest at the party, Rae-kun, who later showed up as a main character in "The Ides" storyline.
During that same interaction, Evilconqueso made an appearance to try to "save" Rae from Gadow's unwanted attention. He is also a reoccuring character in "The Ides" storyline as a main character.
