User blog:Ckohrs0221/Epidemic Expansion: Reminders and Updates

Hello DARPians!!

The Epidemic Expansion is right around the corner! It will begin on Monday, December 21st, OOC.

I know it's been a month or so since the initial blog was posted, so I thought I'd put out this new one with some quick reminders, and a few updates, as to how things are working!

When is my character getting sick?
I was able to honor all your requests for which "wave" you want your character infected in. However... not everyone in the wave will get infected at the exact same time. I have a detailed calendar of who is getting sick when. The AI team will owl you when each of your characters get sick. So keep an eye on your owls!

To give you some idea... I'll give you some general ideas of what to expect, but we do want to keep you all on your toes! That's part of the fun!


 * Wave 1: Will be notified of initial infection from December 21- December 27 OOC
 * Wave 2: Will be notified of initial infection from December 28- January 3 OOC
 * Wave 3: Will be notified of initial infection from January 9- January 12 OOC

Some comments on that: Remember, wait for the owl before RPing that your char is sick. These are the dates for initial infection. But you will also get owls specifying when your char's disease mutates. And you will receive owls based on specific chars-- I know many of you have more than one char up for infection-- you'll get separate information for each of your characters. :)

What if I'm gone for Christmas?
I've taken that into account. No one will be notified on the 24th or 25th. Enjoy the holidays! However, there will be notifications on the 31st, and January 1st.

What are the first symptoms, again?
Level 1 symptoms are nausea and fatigue!

I can't remember which wave, I signed up for!
User blog:Ckohrs0221/Epidemic Expansion-- Patient List

What if I can't keep track of which mutations my characters are at?
The Patient List blog will be updated with which characters are at which levels to help everyone out, and to give the wiki a place to keep track of not only your chars, but other chars you want to RP with. :)

Wait, I have a question you didn't answer!
Either comment on the blog, or shoot me an owl!

I'm super excited for all of this to begin!
