BLIZZARD ( 1/01 - 1/22 )

What's with all those snowflake icons?!

January ushers in the harshest winter weather on record in Adstringendum in the form of a month-long blizzard/snowstorm. Stay in doors, bundle up, light your fires, and try to keep warm. Beware Baby, it's COLD outside!

(Note: The blizzard doesn't stop for the events during this time. It keeps going...the color on the calendar just doesn't split two ways ^^)

Thou Shalt Not Lie ( 1/05 - 1/07 )
Suggested by [livejournal.com profile] alle_halle

George Washington couldn't tell a lie, and neither can those affected by the event. No half-truths either. You must be truthful, no matter how much it hurts. Try as you may, there's no way to force a lie out...
It's The End of The World As We Know It ( 1/21 - 1/23 )
Suggested by [livejournal.com profile] joyinthefight

It's the end of the world as we know it...or so say the Animus, who are sick and tired of everyone here (or just want to see what happens). On January 20th they announce that the 23rd marks the two-year anniversary of the city of Adstringendum, and everyone is getting sent home on that day. Better start packing...or not!

Bye-bye!

(Note: No one is actually being sent home; as always, it's an event, and the Animus just want to see the panic or emotional responses that might occur)

Flash-Freeze ( 1/24 - 1/30 )
Suggested by [livejournal.com profile] favorthebold

What were you doing on the stroke of midnight on the 23rd/24th? Hope it was something nice, because you'll be doing it compulsively for the next week. Sleeping? Sweet dreams, see you when the event is up. Taking a shower? Better hope the hot water lasts seven days. Singing? Your poor housemates. Saying your goodbyes (thinking you were going home)? You'll be saying goodbye to everyone you meet. Sharing a secret? You'll be sharing a whole lot more. Or maybe you're just unlucky enough to be caught mid-hiccup or sneeze, alas...

I wasn't saying you weren't taking it into consideration, I'm saying the muns might not.

It is both hard and survivable, but I think just how hard it would be will fly over more than just a few heads. I'm saying this because it flew over mine until I looked at it some more and thought about it.

I just think you're giving the players too much reliability.

I watched one of my favorite episodes of Star Trek: Voyager again the other night. In it, someone (Harry Kim) not familiar with captaining temporarily wound up as captain of another starship. At first, he had no faith in the people onboard to actually do anything. They became resentful because they weren't trusted.

Then he let up. He gave them a chance. And they weren't perfect. Not everyone survived. But the ship functioned and worked and they pulled together.

Maybe we're expecting too much, that this can be handled well in-game. But I'd rather give the players a chance. Not every player only gave the calendar a passing glance, I'm sure.

This can work. This can develop and strengthen. Let's give everyone the chance to see what they can handle.
