Event Update!

[singularitymods.livejournal.com]

So! Unless anyone has any objections, the Phase 4444 event will be set to end on Friday, Nov 26th. All network posts concerning active holograms should stop on Saturday, but feel free to continue to post backdated logs.

As of this post, the wilderness area that resembles Reach has started to, well, actually resemble Reach, as in dark stormy skies, plumes of smoke in the distance, and the distinct sound of artillery just out of view. There are no holographic enemies as of now, but that'll be changing soon enough.

...also Omega is going to be kidnapping Jun, with his mun's permission, so anyone who likes can feel free to chase the kidnapped princess through Covenant-infested forests and bunkers. Yes there will be running commentary.

Lastly, hurr durr I shouldn't watch Dead Space. Thanks to the threat of radiation from someone, Sacrosanct will be getting a visitor. Final part of the event will be up shortly!

Any questions, ask 'em here or get a hold of me.

First of all, let me apologize for the duration of the event. This was originally supposed to end sooner, but things came up, and I've never run an event before, so this was a learning experience. I would be happy to change the event ending date to Friday, so that the coming weekend will have the game back to normal.

As for distorting the event for the needs of the Halo cast, this is not necessarily the case. The only aspect of the event that is "for" the Halo/RvB players is the single holographic area that has come to resemble Reach, which only appeared in the game ICly yesterday, and is a result of Texas being inside the network and deliberately taking over that area. It's not related to the larger story that is related to the journal entries and the actual plot of the game at large. No one is required to interact with any part of the Reach area or the Halo/RvB cast unless they wish to. The rest of the station has actually gone back to normal during the daytime and only becomes Silent Hill-esque at night, and this will also end shortly.

Any other Halo/RvB influence was player driven, and any player that wanted to affect/help fix/make worse the event only had to ask.

There will be a single log going up that will contain anything pertaining to the Reach area. Network posts are at the players' discretion, we do have a number of active Halo/RvB characters in Singularity and they can and do make up a large percentage of the network posts.

I'm more referring to the fact that the Halo cast's mini-events seem to be approved instantly while other people have to wait a while for things to go through. (Terminator vs Pyramid Head, my request still in limbo, Shep's Ryncol log waiting a week, whereas hugely game/event-affecting stuff like turning on the generators was implemented right away, etc) I do appreciate that it can be hard to run things though! And I'm sorry if I came off as bitchy or negative. Thank you for responding to my concerns.

The Terminator vs Pyramid Head thing was more of a player delay than any cause of the mods.

As for your request, I'm sorry you haven't gotten a response. It was approved sometime last week and I'm not sure why you didn't get a response. So, just so you know, it's a-ok, but I'll give you an official approval response in a sec.

As for the generators, that wasn't exactly an event request but rather players asking if they could affect the current event, thus the more prompt response.
