QUESTIONS may be posted below or sent via
Private Messaging.
Questions might include:
• How late can I start participating?You may join in at anytime, however everything is due by Sunday April 30th at 11:59pm (HOL time).• What if I can't (or don't want to) do a Task?If accomplishing parts of this activity becomes impractical or undesirable for any reason, please feel more than encouraged to ask for an alternative if one hasn't been provided, suggest something, or skip that section altogether. Our goal is to have fun! We simply wish to support your most enjoyable experience.• Do I have to solve the Logic Puzzle over Task 12?Not at all, however there will be a 300 word “Spill The Tea” written alternative, which is higher than any of the previous alt options.• What are the ‘Spill the Tea’ alternative tasks?Other than the logic task, things like puzzles and art will be paired with an alternative, but every task will also have an option to ‘spill the tea’ by researching and writing about any person (alive today, or throughout history) that you find fascinating enough to warrant sharing on in your own words. Whether they’re as tyrannical as a red queen, as lazy as a door mouse, or as silly as a hatter, this is your opportunity to share fun and interesting facts about the person of your choosing. This will be the only alternative offered for the logic puzzle over task #12.• How do I post Graphics?A few popular Image Hosting sites are Postimages, Imgur, and Imgbb where you can upload your work, then receive a link toward sharing elsewhere. The “BBCode
” to attach on The Roost forum submissions (which can be accomplished automatically for you by the click of a button from options at the top of your editing page) is [*img][*/img] with url in the middle (i.e. [*img]link
[*/img]) — NOTE: You would remove the asterisks (*) in order for this code to be successful. They’re added here to display the example effectively. Images imbedded directly into posts must be kept within
600x600 pixels.
• Can I come and go as I please?Absolutely! There are no rules against passing over anything you're not interested in, or doing tasks out of order. No pressure at all.• Do I have to post submissions to the forums?While we love seeing people posting/interact together should that be their preference, if you would feel more comfortable turning in some or all of your work via e-mail or private message where prompted otherwise, that's perfectly fine!"[b]Low Tide & High Tea[/b]"
