event sign-ups

Hello, Kyriakos!

This is a sign-up post for our next major plot event. First, a minor retraction from this week's announcements: we indicated that we'd be running a minor event sometime this week as sort of a prologue to this weekend's event, but scheduling the relevant parties on a short turnaround was proving prohibitively difficult, which led us to make a minor tweak in how we'll approach the event. So, the minor event we were planning has been canceled and replaced, but we will likely use the concept for it sometime in the near future.

So, with that out of the way, some of the information on our next event:

- The event will be a clocktower incursion and it will take place on Saturday, July 9th.
- The characters will be sneaking into the clocktower to look for Tama and his mirror, which were taken away on Day 236.
- This isn't concrete yet, but our runner is targeting a time early in the day and a duration of a few hours. For now, we're looking at around noon EST 2 PM EST and around 3-5 hours. When this is more set, we will let you know.
- The event will start as a minor exploradora, exploring the clocktower to look for what was taken, culminating with a boss fight inside the tower. There will be a plot-related reward at the end of the boss fight.
- We will try to accommodate as many interested players as possible, but as we're looking for a shorter run mostly focused on a boss fight, we will not be able to accommodate as many people as the tile run. We will probably not be able to fit more than 10 players and that in itself is a somewhat optimistic estimate. Depending on how many sign-ups we get, we will RNG the participants that we wind up going with.
- As this run will be focused on a boss fight, combat and support-oriented characters will be most well-suited to it. Powers will be enabled during the run.

UPDATE: Princess got taken as well, under equally stealthy circumstances on Day 237. So, this event is going to be for recovering both Tama (as well as his mirror and the two tiles he was holding) and Princess. Along with this, a few more concrete details about the event are as follows:

- The event will start at 2 PM EST on Saturday and will have an expected run time of 3-5 hours. We very much would like to be done by 7 PM EST.
- We're about at capacity for sign-ups right now, but if you're interested in participating, still feel free to put one in. Those who aren't RNGed into the event will be given preference for future plot events with a limited amount of sign-ups.
- The plot reward for collecting all 8 tiles will be unlocked very soon after the event is finished.
