Please do not send "anonymous feedback" about this game the way someone did. Insomniac is busy doing other things - if you have questions about a task or the game in general, ask it in thread, send a PM to Jeryck, or send a PM to an Event Coordinating Team member (including me).

I prefer you ask in-thread or send a PM to Jeryck as that way information/questions won't get so easily lost.

I'll go shake Jeryck out of his library shortly. I do believe you guys are over-thinking some of these rules or tasks. u_u;

We tend to do that a lot.

I'm still very much confused about this. ^^;; And thank you in advance~

I certainly hope that this has been clarified enough by now.

As I said in the rules, all tasks must be accomplished by following the site rules. Of course you cannot make a repeat thread.... Oh dear, oh dear.

I had thought I answered this question yesterday?

You are allowed to work on all of the tasks together as a team. One person must be given credit for "accomplishing" the task. As long as they were actively participating in the game, they can be given credit. I would like them to have actually participated in accomplishing the task in some way.

For example, in regards to getting everyone in your team in costume... If everyone on your team dressed themselves, it does not matter whose name was written down. But if, for instance, two members of your team have not logged in at all and someone else has to dress them to complete the task, then perhaps the person who did the dressing should be credited. But if they have already been credited for accomplishing a different task and you have a team member who has participated in other tasks and dressed themselves, you can certainly write them down.

Just do not credit someone for an accomplished task if they have not been participating in the game. Why should they be rewarded for your hard work?

And if we do, do the same rules apply for the mascot as the flag?

Yes, the mascot needs an image, please.

I think the rules regarding what images can and can't be used need to be clarified to make sure no one on any team steals someone else's art.

The Menewsha TOS forbids art theft. Why on earth would I accept anything that violates the Menewsha TOS? Of course you cannot steal someone else's art for the game. That would be absolutely ridiculous.

I also have a quest about choosing the team leader: Who gets credit for that? It's a team decision, not just that of a single person. Therefore, no single person should get credit for completing that task. I think the same rule should apply for the team name.

Please credit someone on your team who has been participating in the game. It does not matter who is credited as long as they are participating in the game.

No, please do not give people who have not been participating in the game credit for participating.

Please read this rule... again...

If by the 3rd day your teammate(s) is still missing and the task isn't complete, someone who has already completed a task can finish it. This will not count towards the missing teammates accomplished task list.

I have highlighted that section in a different color to make certain no one misses it from now on. Simply credit a team member a second time or credit "the team", but not until the third day of a task.

How are you supposed to know if "60% of the team," or whatever, "completes the tasks"??
It doesn't make sense to put only 60% or 30%, what would you get if your team got 50%??

Does this all depend on how many people work on tasks?? Or on how many tasks are done??

That is poorly worded on my part. I apologize.

Let us say that on day 1 you get your new tasks. If every member of your team is active, it is possible you will finish all the tasks by day 2 with each task accomplished by a different person. In that case, your team immediately gets the map piece as a reward for finishing ahead of schedule with an active team.

But if you do not have enough active team members to complete all the tasks immediately, you must wait until day 3 to assign incomplete tasks to active team members who have already completed their tasks. Depending on how many of these tasks have to be accomplished by "the team" or a double-upped team member determines how many clues you are given.

So, if, for example your team has 18 members, but only 10 are active and are involved in completing the tasks by the end of the round, then you have finished the round with 60% of your members active.

Does this make sense?

It's extremely frustrating when you're trying to have fun and play a game, but half of the rules are missing, and half of the questions asked regarding the game are left unanswered.

Insane Cricket, I understand that you are frustrated at the moment, but I cannot believe that you would think it acceptable to imply that I am amusing myself by frustrating and confusing you. I am doing my utmost to explain things as clearly as I may. I am not always available to answer questions as I am a busy person - but I am trying my best.

If you are having trouble understanding what I'm asking of you, or see a "hole" in the game, I invite you to please post here and ask your question or point out a flaw in a polite and patient manner.

I will do my best to answer your concerns and if I think that I need to extend a round by a day to make up for a mistake on my part, I will do so.

No one will be kicked out of the game, but not everyone will be rewarded if they are not participating in the game. I am relying on the group as a whole to be honest about who and who isn't participating in the game.


I have recieved 12 mails in my inbox, which I will deal with later.

Thank you to those who are being patient with me, it is sincerely appreciated.

*hugs Jeryck*

Jeryck, you are being an amazing chap, dealing with all this chaos.

I really must somehow send you something for your library as a show of gratitude! Maybe an artifact or two to hang around the house?

Thank you very much for clearing things up, Jeryck. =) I think all of us are just a little bit confuzzled by all this. ^^;;

I do hope we can all carry on and continue to play this game though. :3

I dont want to bother you with questions after it finally calmed down but I saw when someone asked you about the moderator question in #10 that you replied all purple names, would that include the trial moderator?

All I know is, if there is something I;m supposed to be doing. somebody please let me know.

Talk to your team in your group or forum or something...

You're on my team, Spiced. I'll let you know if you need to do something.

Ahhh, I can never remember who is on my team.
Spiced, everything is on our social group.

We don't have trial moderators right now.... ::confused::

Well there is the kentest account that is listed as a trial moderator, but I know that isn't actually a real trial moderator xD

LOL. No, kentest isn't a real trial moderator, no worries. :3

I have a question : For the family photo do all the people have to be on the ship? or can they be around it because all of our members will not fit on the ship, it was drawn to small for that.

You don't need to.
Some people choose to because of privacy, but I think posting in here is just as fine as well.

Grandpa is so mean. I told him all day that he had to come here to answer questions. He nearly forgot again. Grandpa and old books are dangerous!

So! I decided to help him. I hid his book. *is proud of herself* Which mean he's reading everyone message right now and he asked me to answer everyone's questions, if there were any.

Ms. Paprika, you can post the forms here. Grandpa says the only reason why people PM them to him, is so that no one else can see the answers.

Ms. K i w i and Ms Enzeru thank you! I'll make sure he gets them!

... *snorts* Cecilia, you must be my long lost little sister.
