Hello Havenites.

The closure event has gone live now on. Here's the breakdown of what to expect for the next week.

Today (May 1st)
IC: The Yao Corporation sends a message announcing temporary shut down and announces everyone will be put into cold sleep within one week to facilitate this change.
OOC: This will be the last full week of the game. Players can use this week to make final posts in the network and log communities and hash out any last minute things they want to do in game with their characters. The mingle log can be used as a catch-all for anyone who doesn't want to make posts.

Next Friday (May 8th)
IC: The Yao Corporation sends out the last warning, giving everyone 24 hours left before cold sleep goes active. The details of what happens at the moment of cold sleep will be given at that log.
OOC: No more new posts will be allowed after this game. This is effectively the last day of the game being open for new content. The log can be used for as long as everyone pleases to use it and if it hits captcha an overflow will be made for it.

Again we want to reiterate a couple important points:
-If the game reopens with Blue's return, anyone currently in game at this point will be permitted to reclaim their character without reapping.
-No accounts will be removed from the comms by the moderators even during closure. We will not allow new posts on the comms, but previous posts can still be tagged for as long as anyone wants.

Essentially this is a pause and we hope it won't be a permanent one. If Blue returns, we hope you do as well and everyone will be welcomed back without quarrel. There will be a longer note regarding closure next week. For now we hope you enjoy the final week of the game, as unfortunate as it is given the circumstances.
