ANNOUNCEMENTS

[♔ALLISON ARGENT]

JUNE 4TH

• SURPRISE! We've got a brand new skin up right now that's unlike anything we've ever had on Derp before! We're super excited about it! As usual, though, there may be a few bugs in the system - Amanda, Sam, and I worked really hard to get everything figured out ahead of time, but if you see anything wrong, please just let one of us know and we'll fix it!

• As you can see, we've also got a new announcements thread - recently it's seemed like not everyone's getting the announcements, so if you could take a moment and click "track this topic" in the top right-hand corner of this post, that will help you stay updated on what's going on on-site so you don't miss out on anything important!

• All that being said, a lot of things have changed here, and we've done a LOT of editing! This includes the SITE'S RULES, PLOT, and the ORIGINAL CHARACTER RULES. Please review these three things!

• Additionally, check out our brand new DIRECTORY. We loved the old who's who, but we had a bit of trouble with people forgetting to update their posts with their characters. The directory is now more like one of your fabulous claims. HOWEVER, it also includes your time zone and age! How cool is that? This means that we need all of you to go post and tell us (if you want to) your age and time zone. I put in only the few that were listed in the old who's who thread. So please update that!

• We did a lot of moving around of claims and stuff while setting up the skin, so CHECK ALL YOUR CLAIMS! Make sure everyone you play is claimed and sorted properly! This includes the directory - if your characters weren't listed in your who's who post, you'll need to add them!

• As you can see, there's an entirely new layout for clickname profiles. To edit your profile, you'll now need to go up to MY CONTROLS near the top right of your screen, then click EDIT PROFILE INFO on the list on the left.

• We loved the fate roulette event so much that we've decided to keep it forever! So check out our new ALTERNATE UNIVERSES board! Pretty neat, huh?!

• The activity check is now CLOSED! Claims have been cleared out and boards emptied! If you missed the AC for any reason and want to bring back one of your previous characters, please PM ME and we'll discuss your options!

• Keep an eye out for the OTMs - they'll be posted very soon!

JUNE 13TH

• Hey guys! It just came to our attention that the clickname profiles aren't working correctly for guests, new members, or inactive characters. In the process of fixing this, it has come to our attention that there's a bit of an issue with a piece of the skin's coding, and we've reached out for help. Hopefully it will get fixed in the next couple days, but in the meantime don't panic and we're sorry it looks a bit messy!

• OTMs will be posted shortly, so stay tuned!

JUNE 14TH

• Hey DERP! The OTMs have been announced! They're a little late due to the hecticness of the skin change and the overall busyness of our schedules. So we do apologize for that <3 Otherwise please take a moment to congratulate our winners when you see them again!

JUNE 16TH

• Inside Out will be added to the canons list this Friday, 6/19. It may be added at anytime that day, but reserves may be posted anytime after midnight EST.

• Please refrain from talking in depth about the movie in the cbox for a while, too - it may take a bit for everyone to see it, and nobody likes spoilers! If you want to talk about it, take it to PM or AIM!

JUNE 26TH

• Hello everyone! As you might have noticed, we've updated the theme of this month's ICC. As summer is officially here, why not celebrate with a good old fashioned beach barbecue?

• Something strange has been happening recently, and you can feel it. Perhaps you've tried your best to ignore it, but there's no denying it now... There have been whispers of Darkness leaking into the city and rumors of disappearances. Could they be true?

Good evening DERP! As you may have noticed, we have revealed the Summer event in a shiny new forum. You can read up on it here and sign up... If you dare. More details will be released in the next week, so keep an eye out!

As always, if you have any questions, reach out to a staffer and we will be happy to help.
