Hi all!
Welcome to Alvadas Sorla, we're happy to have you. There are lots of lovely people here so don't be afraid to PM people for threads.
-Speaking of lovely people:
Here's a shout-out to the graders in the city- thank you so much! We got the grade queue down to two pages, which feels a lot more manageable. Here's to lots of lovely grade rewards.
Now, there were quite a few grades that had to be withheld because of ledger problems. I want to discuss a few things. I think you might agree with me that job threads are probably one of the least appealing things about the game. There's a few of you that will enjoy them, and props to you! But I can speak personally and say that I find them quite tedious. Whether that's because they are that lurking thread with the set word limit, or because you find yourself repeating the same thing over and over...
Then because job threads slide, you can't collect wages for those threads, and then ledgers grow dust and grades can't be awarded. It's a vicious circle.
I'm considering a few reforms to jobs in Alvadas, none of which are set in stone, and which might not be appealing anyway. But first, I wanted to hear your thoughts- use your imagination and think outside the box. What kind of things could spice up job threads? Seasonal jobs, i.e. a different job in Summer or Winter? A job notice board?
EDIT: Prophet kindly pointed out to me, dunce that I am, that the actual format of job threads is a game-wide thing and cannot be changed. This means that job threads still have to be 2x2500 word job threads.
