Poll Closed & Next Plot Arc will be...
First, our log community now has both an "! open" and "! closed" tag to be used by choice to mark a post as open to all characters and players, or closed to a select group. These are entirely optional; we will review the usage of these tags again in three months to see if there's any change that will be further beneficial at that time.
Now, in more exciting news... With the poll for voting on the next plot arc in Exsilium now closed, we're happy to announce that by a narrow margin...
The Altering and Controlling the Development of Cloning Technologies and Genetic Alteration Technologies Arc will be completed first!
More details on what that entails will be coming up in the next few days (up to a week), but in the interim, starting today, Transports will be able to move Earthside. They may choose to stay on the moon. That is at their own descretion. The Transport Pad will be coming down due to system strains noted by the AI, which is in part due to needing to bring the Aristeas technology back online. (The Aristeas technology is the means by which Transports can be resurrected.) The Scouting group has managed to make contact with the current Initiative Group, hereafter called the New Initiative. The New Initiative has been able to provide a location and ability to connect to the excess power being used in the main city of Winter Wonderland Exsilium, but they don't have the resources for finding places for 350+ people to live, let alone to clothe and feed them.
Transports will be the only ones in control of the Transport Pad, or any use there-of. The New Initiative has no rights to it, and has only bargained to work with the Transports to achieve mutual goals concerning the United Earth and the state of current events. Control of time travel remains in Transport hands.
The information on the original Winter Wonderland post still stands! Characters will be responsible for finding their own housing, which can be achieved through bartering, favours, pleading, or strong-arming, if they're unable to build a shelter of their own. Initially all Transports will be brought down to the facility which will be housing the Transport Pad, located about a two miles away from the main city, ironically called Exsilium. It is not located over London, as the old city of Exsilium was. It will be possible to stay in the facility where the Transport Pad is located for short terms; there isn't enough room for all the Transports to stay there permanently, so only those with difficulties navigating the snow will be granted a pass to stay for longer, along with the Old Initiative Employees who were stranded on the moon with the Transports the last few months.
The Transport Pad will begin being dismantled now, and will be shuttled down to Earth and reconstructed and functional again by December 7th, ICly. At that point, missions will technically begin again, though it may take the mod team until as late as the 14th to have the new roster of missions up for selection in regards to the next three plot arcs Exsilium the game will be moving through. We're working our hardest on this now, to be able to bring it to you guys as soon as possible!
Please ask any questions about our setting here, in the original question thread! We will be answering them as quickly as possible.
