Marques: This week, we examine the marque of Gentian:
The beauty of Gentian lies in the bloom of its flowers. Purplish blue hued, its flowers are fluted shaped, blooming at the end in vibrant color that draws attention. The leaves are slender and pointed, dotting the overall clean line of the marque randomly. A full moon rests near the top of the marque, one of the crowning glories of Gentian.

[/i][/center]The board is undergoing quite a few changes of late, please bear with us and make sure to read the following information to keep up to date:
The Council of 80:We want to hear your suggestions! If you have any comments or suggestions on any aspect of the board or rp, please post them here: The Council of 80
Board Speed, the final decision:
As most have you might have seen, the Board Speed part 2 poll has been locked and theres a tie. It was a close race but the 1:1 and 2:1 ratios won out (equal to real time and faster then real time).
So what we've decided to do, is do both.
Heres the deal. Starting September 1st, the board will move ahead to the first day of Spring. From then on, the time on the board will pass equally to the time in real life. For 3 months we will continue this trend, by December 1st, if people find that they are finding issues in how time is passing, we will give the board 3 more months.
By March 1st, if we need another 3 months adjustment period, we'll be then proceed with the faster then real life board time no matter what. If though after the first 3 months things go well and people are satisfied that things are going well, we'll proceed with moving to faster then real time.
In 3 months there will be another poll posted so that players can vote so we can get some feed back, and we'll go from there.
Again... this won't be starting till September 1st, and this day will signal the beginning of Spring. Any comments, questions, concerns, feel free to send them to staff or post them in the Council of 80 board.
Thanks Everyone for Voting!

Upcoming Absences
[/i][/center]NOTE: I’m going to be restarting this area because it seems like it’s always the same absences, lol. What I would like is for people to PM me on Christian when they have an absence and also when it’s over, because sometimes I miss it when someone posts that they are going to be gone or that they have returned.
Thanks ;D
