Event | Malicant | Teams!
Evening, turtle-ites! Alex here to announce the team structure and scheduling for the upcoming Malicant plot. There are a couple items of business to address before we launch into the core of the post, so let's fire it up and get this show on the road!
Power Reduction
The meta/power/tech reduction is set to hit its peak on June 24th and then plateau until the Malicant event concludes in mid-July. This means that, per this post, all characters are having to deal with a significant reduction in strength, powers, and technology that they have long held as just there. (Which is why Tony Stark can be seen crashing his Mark VI armour more frequently than dignity strictly allows for, whoops.) The consoles have and will continue to work and characters may note that the auto-translate of speech in and around Keeliai still functions perfectly. Strange, but true!
Independent Actions
While not every character may end up on a team, we are happy to announce that this hardly discounts them from involvement in the plot! Characters not announced as part of one of the fifteen teams below will be welcome to investigate in and around Keeliai/the turtleside to see what they can find. They are welcome to take action, even partner up with one another! The only difference is that they will not be part of the official "clueventure" event logs.
That said! There is a comment header in this post specifically for those characters that would like to get involved regardless of team status. These characters (erm, their players) can reply to this header with details of what actions they will be taking, where they might look, and what they might do. We will look over each of these submissions and provide a result of what they may find/impact/what have you.
Interested? Fantastic! Then feel free to hop to this comment thread and fill out the form there to get the ball rolling.
Note: We do ask that participation in this angle of the plot be kept to characters not involved on teams so as not conflict with any of the clueventure log results. Also: Because the characters involved with teams will likely be busy with said teams.
That clears up the event housekeeping, so onto the core of the post: Team rosters!
Team Rosters
Structuring
We ended up receiving more preformed team sign-ups than initially expected. Based on this, we modified the method of selecting the final team rosters to allow for seven pre-formed teams and eight RNG ones (compared to the planned 10:5 ratio). To select which of the pre-formed teams to allow, we turned to RNG. Any characters on teams that did not make that lottery and were open to being added to the RNG pool were indeed added into the RNG team lottery.
There were more than seventy-five characters signed up for the plot and as such, unfortunately, we were unable to include every signed-up character. Those that did not make the lottery teams are more than welcome to participate via the independent investigations option outlined above.
Scheduling
The first event log will go up on June 25th, with an additional log posted every day after until the total of five logs are posted. Each log will, as planned, be structured to allow for three teams to independently operate (using comment headers). All clues and team decisions, as discussed in the sign-up post, will be covered off in these log posts. At this time, an example of the structure is not available, but we recommend everyone take a look at the first log's structure when it goes up as it will be mirrored on the other logs.
Note: Links to the team-specific threads within each log will be added to the log header information for ease of access and reference. That is one specific structure detail currently planned. IC and OOC sections will also be clearly identified within each team's area.
And now, without further ado... the teams! Remember to check both lists in case your character made it on an RNG team! <3

Log Groupings & Posting Schedule
The logs will be posted starting June 25th, with one per day until all five logs are posted. Clues will be provided to each team every five days, with three days given for the team to reply with their "next step" choice from the list of potential options that will be provided with each set of glue. Once again, OOC structuring will be finalised for the posting of the first log on June 25th.
In terms of organisation, the teams will be separated into logs on a straightforward basis, as follows:
Log 01 | June 25, 2013
>Team 01
>Team 02
>Team 03
Log 02 | June 26, 2013
>Team 04
>Team 05
>Team 06
Log 03 | June 27, 2013
>Team 07
>Team 08
>Team 09
Log 04 | June 28, 2013
>Team 10
>Team 11
>Team 12
Log 05 | June 29, 2013
>Team 13
>Team 14
>Team 15
And on June 30th, the teams in Log 01 will receive their next set of clues, with each log getting their clue-uppance according to the five day interval.
The M-Word
As of this time, the team that will encounter Malicant is UNKNOWN. The "lucky" few will be contacted OOCly by Roy to discuss the encounter and its outcome once the almighty hand of fate (read: what happens when RNG and character actions combine via DIGIVOLVING) has identified which team it shall be.
That is all for this event update! Questions are always welcome and a thread header has been provide for such. We have also provided a thread header for the investigations, plus a team shout-out thread for players to have fun and do whatever preliminary plotting they so desire.
And a reminder that the event will officially kick of with an IC console post from Evandau with a call to arms. /insertStitchlaughingevillyemote
