GAUNTLET IS CHANGING - PLEASE READ FULLY.
okay, guys !! so it’s been an amazing run, but unfortunately real life is starting to run me over a little, and i know some of our members are dealing with the same thing. HOWEVER, this is not the end of gauntlethq, but the format will be changing. for those of you familiar, gauntlet will be changing to a mumu format rp. it will be semi-open to new members, but essentially i’m turning it into a place where members can play the characters they love, experiment with new muses, and generally enjoy rping in a stress free environment.
well, acceptances will be done once a week. if a new person wants to join, they will submit a modified application. wednesdays are my only days off, so those will be the day new acceptances are posted. there will no longer be a character limit, and there will be far looser rules about activity.
why no character limit ??
because sometimes muse is fickle. sometimes you want to play a character but don’t have muse for them all the time. we want to give members a place to play whatever characters they want without the pressure of crushing time restraints.
what’s the new activity limit ??
hypothetically, it’ll be about two weeks. however, we highly suggest that members provide us w/ an ooc way to get in contact w/ them. some of us already enjoy rping on kik, and if you find yourself able to be more active on kik than on the dash, then activity can be changed a little on a case-by-case basis. basically, you’ll lose your role if we go more than two weeks without hearing from you.
what do i need to do to participate in the mumu ??
existing members will definitely get their pick first. your roles are not up for grabs. you won’t need to resubmit your applications for characters you are already playing, but i do ask that you send us a list of characters/faceclaims so i can add them to a comprehensive list. if you want to take a new character, you will need to fill out an application so we can get all the necessary information.
will there still be events/plot drops ??
yes, but hypothetically this will take on a more collaborative approach. while admins have final say on big plot drops, in a mumu format, we can all contribute to developing the plot together.
