ACCESS FILTER GUIDE

Before posting an entry, be sure to read this post!

In order to lock a post, you're going to need to use access filters on this journal. These are really simple to use and for now I (that is, K) will maintain them and keep them up to date, although if you know how to use them I'd appreciate help always. 

Using access filters is very easy! When you go to make a post, go to the drop-down menu at the bottom labeled "Show this entry to:". There will be 4 options, one of which is "Custom." Select Custom, and you will see a list of different filters with checkboxes, one for each family. Check only the families that you want to allow into the post. If a post is locked only to Borja, do not label it Private (Just you). You'll want to lock it just to the Borja circle so that we can post using our regular accounts.

Access filters can be changed retroactively -- so if we add someone to the "Borja" circle later, they'll be able to see all past entries made for us. 

If you have questions, post them here.

WHO: YOU
WHERE: YOUR PLACE
OPEN/CLOSED: EH OPEN WHATEVER
WHEN: DAY 7 MORNING

[The rain continuous it's steady what-is-slightly-harder-than-a-drizzle. If you left bloodstains anywhere it will help wash them away.

You also find you have a full hand of cards, and the number of marbles in your jar has changed!

Whatever cards were played on you last round are either still there, waiting for you to pick them up, or their role is still in effect on you. You know you have until the end of today to fulfill the role of the cards or…

Well, it probably isn't good.]

YOU HAVE:

18 Points

3* - Random
3 - Have an arm broken by another family
3* - Random
4* - You need to be fed on NOW
5 - You feel you must try out all the other methods of feeding, on other families


[Borja alone has another special little thing, a place piece of paper, a pen, and a note: "The priests may turn their eyes toward family a day, and know their movements".


((FOR ONE FAMILY A DAY, Borja gets to know what cards they play and on whom, and what cards are played on them and by whom. ))]

WHO: YOUR FAMILY
WHERE: YOUR HQ
OPEN/CLOSED: CLOSED TO YOU GUYS
WHEN: DAY 6

[It's a new season! Outside you will find a dreary rain falling, the kind that is oddly in escapable but not enough to really bother with an umbrella. It sounds pleasant at least, but seems to oddly distort sound, you feel like it would be hard to catch someone sneaking up on you.

But a new season is good news, it's another chance to impress the mother (= And you will find the means to do so somewhere in a public area of your HQ.

You have:

5 cards with words on them!
1 unopenable jar with 15 colorful marbles in it labeled 'points'
1 sheet of paper with a bunch of fuckin rules on it

YOUR CARDS:
3 - Give away some of your resource
5 - You feel you must try out all the other methods of feeding, on other families
3* - Random
3 - Have an arm broken by another family
3* - Random

Season 1 End

WHO: ALL YA'LL
WHERE: BORJA MOSTLY
OPEN/CLOSED: OPEN
WHEN: morning, day 5

[Today the weather isn't present.

It's not sunny, or dark, the clear skies have cleared up into... nothingness? Probably that's what nothingness looks like. This of course isn't anything to be alarmed about, it just means the Season is over.

If you are awake and out for it, you'll notice a ripple extending out from the Pearl and radiating across every territory, shifting things as it goes. The changes made are thus:

Borja: It wasn't looking bad before now it just looks great, everything is clean as whistle, there are more plants in the planters and they are lush. Every inch of the place is spotless. Also, their laundry is, if not mended, clean, and beds are made. Messy people have been picked up after.

Uruk: Things have stayed about the same, maybe it's a bit cleaner? But the territory just looks good, with everything in good repair.

Ichibei: Things are looking slightly dingier but it's nothing that couldn't be handled with a good scrubbing.

Aristophanes: Ok your territory was always kind of dirty but it's not looking good. Things are starting to smell.

Axum: Ugh wow for real, pick up after yourselves. It looks like someone has been making a mess. A few boats have suck, none of yours luckily, the rusty water is looking darker and dirtier and trash is in it's waves. It smells bad.

Ching Shih: Literally every gross unpleasant smell about living near the ocean is now yours. Just. Rotting fish? Check. Human waste? Double check. Your rocky beaches are littered with broken glass and other trash. Get your act together.



However, it's ENTIRELY POSSIBLE you are too distracted by other ~lessons~ bestowed upon you by the Mother, as each member of a house will find themselves under the influence of one of assigned affects:

Borja: Wow you just. you feel so great?? so good!!! You are aces. you are the best. Does everyone know you're the best? They should probably know since. in fact. you are the best. Also you appear to have some lovely little cardboard crowns.

Uruk: Everyone loses ONE SENSE.

Ichibei: afflicted by myotonia congenita

Aristophanes, Axum, Ching Shih: HAVE YOU BEEN MAIMED YET TODAY? you just. you are starving. to be hurt. who has ever even heard of such a weird hunger? well apparently Mother has.


Yay you all made it to the end of your first season! Good job! Time to ponder on your successes and failings while enduring Mother's judgment of you. (=


((Status effects last EXACTLY UP UNTIL THE POINT WHERE YOU SICK OF PLAYING WITH THEM. Territories condition will not change until the end of the next season, though you can choose to make things better/worse yourself. Those with the hunger for being maimed WILL find that it works the same as their natural hunger (can eat a meal, levels you up).))

WHO: Borja + Aristophanes + others?
WHERE: Aristophanes
OPEN/CLOSED: Open to anyone in the area
WHEN: Day 1, early afternoon

[ There's a small cluster of Borja making their way to Aristophanes territory this afternoon. They may or may not know where to go to find who they're looking for among all the unfamiliar buildings, so it's something more of a leisurely stroll than a pointed expedition. ]

Season Submissions

This post is for submitting your or your families entries for each Season!

At the start of each Season the mods will make a top level comment with the format to submit your entries, along with any relevant notes for that particular Season.

Unless stated otherwise, entries must be submitted by the end of the Season, so midnight PST on the 15th of the month and the last day of the month.

Submissions may be made by any member of the family, even if the one submitting it is not the one who ICly performed the task.

Submissions are mostly on honor system, we will read them randomly but not all of them. By submitting a link you are agreeing in that link you performed the task ICly (it wasn't handwaved). Please also link to within a few comments of when the task was performed, not the top of a 200 long comment thread.

Even if you met the requirements of a Season but did not submit them in time, they will not be scored. Please don't ask the mods to count something submitted late.
