Hey Syliras! How're you doing? Good? Great!

Just letting you squires and knights now, Arch is beginning some lessons in open threads! If you're interested in learning some new skills, or you want to give some lessons of your own, feel free to pop in - and if you're not a member of the Order, throw a PM and we can work something else out too, I'm sure. :3

Happy frolicking~!

[Syliras' OOC Thread] The Calm within the Storm

Postby Millie on March 24th, 2016, 10:55 am


Hi there! There are some exciting things happening in Syliras at the moment, what with all these plots and such forth. :)

I want to chip in a little and add my own little suggestion for anyone that's interested. I'm looking to kill Millie off, and I'm looking for mainly squires/knights but anyone off the street might do too. Here's the matchmaker thread if anyone's interested.

Graders: Don't bother giving grades to Millie, as I am waiting for this character to be retired! Thank you :)

[Syliras' OOC Thread] The Calm within the Storm

Hello folks!

I'm here to let you know that I will be stepping down soon as DS of Syliras. To the tune of as soon as my knighting quest is done and perhaps after a few other things are accomplished.

So what will that mean for Syliras? Well, Syliras will play on. Reflection has been designated as my heir apparent and will take over all the duties involved. So no need to worry about the fair city closing down. Plume will likely be retired due to inactivity unfortunately, she has been having a hard time IRL so I can't blame her. But, if she manages to stick around, she will be in charge with Reflection under her. Honestly, she could have been a DS a long time ago if she wanted. She is just that good. Whoever steps up, I will be setting up all the admin stuff for an easy transition. Especially in the event that they have to inherit my threads and development projects.

Why am I stepping down? At this writing I am currently working full time and going to school full time. I am having a hard time fitting in any Miz related stuff in what little free time I have. And when I do, it is a bit overwhelming to have the workload that I have when all I'd like to do is write.

So when exactly am I stepping down? Well, this depends. It could be next week, or it could be in a few months. It depends entirely on how quickly Reflection takes to my instruction and how quickly I go through the tasks I need to do before I leave.

What am I going to do after I step down? Well, there are a number of things. Actually playing on my PC, would be nice. I haven't done anything with it in over 3 seasons. I might take on a secret miz project later on. And who knows, perhaps I will become an ST again in the future.

What does that mean on the interim? Well, business as usual. There won't be a seasonal calendar since that is optional. Reflection is going to take on modded threads and I am going to ease her into ST paperwork and development. If you have questions, please look to the lore and the information threads in Syliras before PMing me. If you have concerns about issues regarding whether or not you can do a thing, go ahead and PM me or Reflection. Wages will be dealt with as soon as possible as well as other requests. Grades... well, they have traditionally been handled by volunteer graders, but shield points still need to be updated. We may need a new system for that and I will brainstorm with reflection on it.

I will keep you updated on the news and I will be happy to answer any questions.
.
If you have an concerns, questions or problems please PM me right away. I am here to assist and can usually get a reply within a day or two if not sooner.
If you haven't gotten a response from me within five days, please PM me again!

*Puts all the flags of Syliras on half-mast*
I'm really happy that I got to spend so long with you as a DS, undoubtably the plots you've made in your time here are the best ones I've seen out of all the storytellers!
It'll be a real shame to see you go but it's great to see that you've got a lot running from you and that you'll still be around occasionally, even if it means I soon won't be able to make any more of my Nightmare puns. :(

I don't usually do the whole OOC thing but, Nightmare. We salute you and your service to the fair city. May your path be drawn by fiery maned steeds wreathed in darkness. And may your memory forever haunt the dreams of your enemies.

It will be sad to see you go but I'm glad you'll have more time for yourself. You will be missed Sir Knightmare.

May your thoughts take you to pleasantness while your journeys are set away from this mystical palace. I hope all goes well for you Nightmare! If you ever meet your maladictive friends form your dreamscape fell them I had said hi. May Silir miss your presence. I can't wait to see what you and reflection have stirred up for Syliras. Been a bit eager to know what the calendar is going to be like this season! May your travels be safe and well! Hope to see you sometime again. :)

You'll be missed, Nightmare, but you do what you need to do for you.
Very busy at work. May not be around much for a while.

It has been wonderful spending so much time in Syliras under your leadership Nightmare. Even when things felt quiet you were only just a PM away. I really appreciate everything you did for this fair city and I probably don't even know half of what you accomplished behind the scenes. You'll be missed but I hope you can enjoy some time with your PC and focus on RL too.

I'm sorry to hear that you're leaving Nightmare, truly. I've always admired you from afar, and after hearing all that you've been doing while keeping up with Miz when you could, that admiration's even greater. You'll be sorely missed and, as Archalist said, the Syliran flags will be at half mast! I do hope to see you around with your PC at some point though; at least you're not all gone!
