Well guys, it's the 31st so Prejoin officially ends today! This means ALL GAMES from the prejoin period are closed and all the comments posted after this entry won't be taken into account.
Thanks everyone who joined us during this period, I hope we can make it fun for you after the grand opening as well~
We reached both goals in the end, so that also deserves a thanks to all the players who helped us out with promoting and donations.
The Grand Opening event starts tomorrow. I hope you're as excited as I am! The regular games also start tomorrow, so please participate in those to get the game rolling! All the services open tomorrow! If you want to turn in anything, you can start on that as soon as the comments are enabled on all the services entries.
Deck Donations open again on April 5th and the release will be on April 7th, so keep an eye out for all these things.
I have updated the gamelist on the site if you want to take a look, though since none of the rounds have been posted, I'll add the actual links by next weekend. Sorry about the inconvenience. I also updated the Benefits entry, please read it carefully! That you understand the rules and guidelines is very important so there are no problems for you regarding this service in the future.
I have also read the answers to the survey posted on the previous update and I took all of your answers into account for my decision:
1. Most players seem to not worry too much about official art being spoilery and some even explained that it could be one of the few available images it could be used for a pairing so these will be treated on individual cases. For now, I will only put a small note on the masteries post so that players have some conscience about how spoilery the image can be and I also encourage players to consult either me or Joyce if they're not sure about how much of a spoiler it can be because I don't mind allowing it, but I would prefer to avoid trouble in the future if new players join and they complain that the master bagdes for other players contain spoilers.
2. After a lot of thinking, I have decided to use only two symbols for deck collecting and deck mastering: so we'll stick to slash (/) for romantic pairings and dash (-) for non-romantic and same deck collecting unless the player states they want to collect as romantic. The reason for this is because some players made me realize using more than two symbols could be confusing and then I would have to make a legend of symbols so everyone knew what to use in what case... honestly, that seemed overly complicated. The reason why I picked dash over the ampersand (&) is because the majority of commenters seemed to gravitate more towards that option. I will also make a note on this on the masteries post for when people decide on their next collecting deck and on the sign up post for when people pick their starting deck.
I would appreciate if those who would like to make changes about their collecting deck symbol on the members page let me know now! If you would make evident that the deck you're collecting is non-romantic, please tell me and I will change the symbol accordingly!
So this is it for today, see you all tomorrow with the grand opening event!
Edit: All services are now open!
