AFW 5.0 Updates

Hi, everyone! I'm pleased to welcome you to our fifth consecutive season at A False World! There's a few important bits you'll need to know coming into this season. First off, we intend for this season to extend beyond the summer months for the first time. We are debuting a lower-maintenance version of the site, and are hopeful that this form of staffing will allow for a longer run time. That being said we are cutting back on numerous functions that have been prominent in previous seasons. Namely:

1. Random events will happen with less frequency. Like last season, these will occur in-thread, and not via PM as we did in seasons 1 - 3.

2. AC rotations will continue to occur in bulk. We hope the rotate once weekly. If stock runs low in the middle of the week, we will re-stock to meet demand. There should be an average of 10 biographies available at any given time.

3. Our artist, Aries, will not be readily available this seasons. Certain colors for evolutions will not appear at our fingertips, and there may be an indefinite delay to implement art updates.

4. We still hope to host a series of in-character and out-of-character events over the course of this season, but the going might be slow. If activity levels stay high, we will certainly step on the gas with regards to contests.

These are our main cutbacks this season. Just know that despite the staff's busy schedules, we will try to be as involved as possible with activity onsite. Otherwise, we will go about everything as we have done in the past. If you are new, please read up on our information threads in both the Site Functioning and In-Character Reference boards.

Thank you all, and as always, take care!
