Hi everyone!
First of all thank you for all your energy and interest in the game! It really makes me happy to see this place thrive! Unfortunately of course with thriving comes maintenance.
When this game was designed, it was originally intended to be focused on the AU characters first and foremost. The OU characters were always allowed and welcomed, but they were meant to be a smaller element of the game - or at most only a third of the game (with Paranormal AU and Normal AU filling out the other 2/3rds). However currently, they comprise of 21 of the current 44 characters -- nearly half the game! Whoops!
So because of this, starting today, we'll be implementing a cap for OU players of 25 players. Currently there are 16 players with OU characters, so there are still some slots open for people considering apping!
In addition to that, we'll be implementing a character cap of 2 OUs per player. Anyone who currently has more than 2 OU characters as of right now will have their third character grandfathered in- so no worries there!
We'll possibly be giving more perks for AU characters to give further incentives to app those instead, but we still need to come up with those. Please check out this month's workshop to help with plotting out any AUs!
That's all! Thank you and have a great day!
