First: Welcome to Dreamwidth, Heroes. We are officially open for business! Lachesis has, for reasons you can probably guess, completely destroyed every communicator issued since 2008. They cannot be salvaged. Characters have been ordered to return to Stark Tower in order to receive their new communicators. As mentioned previously, each communicator will have a 7-digit number (on your journal profile!) and will be registered by your character's First and Last Name. Unless you're like Lust and you don't have a last name, you jerk. If and only if the character does not have a given name will it instead register to their Hero Alias. So n/a | The Major would appear as The Major.

Yes, everyone is expected to come. Even characters in prison or hospitalized. Complicated Legal Reasons!! The exception would be if someone's on, say, non-mobile life support or in a coma, but I'm pretty sure nobody qualifies for either of those at the moment. While you don't have to tag that log if you don't want to, why on earth would you miss the biggest and most widespread CR shindig? I ask you.

Anyway. There's a slight hiccup with the content importer at the moment; though we've successfully managed to drag all entries over here from the two comms today, it's sort of just... stopped and hanging listless once it hits the comment stage. Of course, I didn't realize this until after I nuked membership at [livejournal.com profile] capeandcowllogs. SORRY ABOUT THAT. Basically it means that any comments made between the night of the 22nd and now are in transit. Not lost! They will get here. But they haven't arrived on DW just yet, so we hope everyone will have a little patience and be willing to pick those threads back up once they ship.

Because of that hiccup, I won't be membership-nuking the main comm on LJ's side just yet. Grinbitch's post does indicate a frying of the Network, which will as far as IC goes prevent characters from making new posts/comments until after they get new communicators. But since we don't know how long this hanging queue will take, we feel it might crunch activity on posts made in the past week.

So:
All new top level posts: make on DW
Continuing threads from logs where most recent tag was within the past week: Put those on hold for now because I'm a dumbass.
Continuing threads from main where most recent tag was within the past week: Continue those on LJ until such a time as they appear on DW. Then segue over.

Overall, we're not quite as finalized as I was hoping by this point in time: the horrible adventures with the tagging system continue on, directory's still haphazard and missing pieces, I literally did not remember I still need to convert the profile information to this site until I started writing this post, I am staring into the maw of the world build and NPC FAQs and feeling terror, there's still a few months of "attack of the clones" comment threads, and so on, and so on.

But fuck it man. We're gonna get it all up and in shape in no time.
Apps open next Monday and it's going to be sweet.
There's probably going to be a [personal profile] app_this_plz round soon that we can solicit the crap out of.



... Activity check will probably be up on Friday...

Hi~~

I... might have totally jumped the gun, but I tried putting up a network post and it said it had entered a moderation queue. I am so sorry if I did it wrong :(

more questions because i like making your life harder! :c

so when the comments import, will they be going from when the import was entered, or when it started, or even just when the dw crawler hits that thread?
i guess there is no logistical way it could be any but the last one tbh so honestly nevermind

Yaaaaay DW! Everything looks great, despite how much still needs to be done.

I forgot to ask last night: what options for comm-grabbing does a character have if they are a villain absolutely everyone wants to beat the living shit out of? I want Major to show up to the Porter party, but I also want him to leave alive.

the logs comm isn't accepting any more tags. Cassie's isn't there, is this part of that snafu you mentioned earlier?

This may be a dumb question BUT I'M GONNA ASK IT ANYWAY

If our tags on the LJ log comm made in the last week are showing up in the entries over here on DW, are we okay to start replying to them, or do we run the risk of having them get deleted when the final import does happen so we should hold off on replying?

There is no risk of them getting deleted! If your threads have gotten their most-recent comments onto DW, they're safe to reply to. You should only hold off if there's still comments missing.
