Have you always wanted to play a game with friendly BoD's who
weren't hoarding all the shinies and HAD's for themselves?

Have you always wanted to play a game where the quality of roleplay,
not the number of posts, was more important?

Have you ever wanted to play a game from its very birth, watching it
grow and knowing that you were an integral part of its success?

~~~~

Those are exactly the kinds of questions that we're trying to
solve here at Weyrs of Pern (WoP).

So.... What makes Weyrs of Pern special?

* The BoD is there to facilitate your ideas and schemes. They're there to help you have fun, not to make themselves happy by forming plotlines around their own shiny goldrider HAD. In fact, the BoD has to earn the right to Impress, or hold any ranking persona, just like the rest of you! (Meaning, if they've got a candidate on the sands, they have no part in deciding who gets Impressed -- they're as blind as any other player). Player input holds alot of weight for us, and your ideas and suggestions really do matter.

* We loved Anne's world so much, we couldn't choose just one area! At the moment, Weyrs of Pern has two PC areas, Fort Weyr and Fort Hold, and is leaving plenty of room to expand with 5 other weyrs and countless holds. Part of the fun of RPing is being in different places, and we plan to opening the other areas whenever there's interest, allowing for more ranking personas (though, really... aren't all characters special?)

* We have a searchable persona list, as well as a searchable clutch list. Our clutch list was specifically designed to spread the dragonrider populace over a broad range of ages, so that you're not living in a weyr filled with 15-turn old candidates and 20-turn old riders!

* We allow both Full-Post and Round Robin style formats. Why limit ourselves? We want you to be able to express your creativity in your most comfortable fashion.

* For you message boarders out there, we fully support YahooGroups' archive feature, which allows you to clear out your e-mail inbox and choose to view the messages on the YahooGroups site instead. You can even view them in a messageboard-esque threaded view to help keep your storylines straight.

* Lurkers are always welcome!

If you're looking for a game with Weyrs of Pern's features, feel free to stop by http://www.weyrsofpern.com and take a look around. We may be new, but we've got high hopes -- and we're actively going to put them into action.

So, Jennifer...
don't be scared ot see 'pernie' around, it's me. :)
Are you gold applications & BoD applications still up? If so, what must we do?

Welcome, welcome!

BoD is still up for grabs, although it's a rather choosy process. Understandable, since it's a BoD position. ;) I just want to make sure that any new BoD members are dedicated, competent regarding our theme, and are going to stick around. Just e-mail the BoD address -- our email can be found on our BoD page.

As for goldriders, you'll notice on the Clutches page (click on Fort Weyr if you'd like it to be more organized) that we have one available gold egg that you can backdate. Just create a character as you would any other, create your dragon, and choose this clutch. We'll be choosing the goldrider through the character application, as well as player activity. We'll be looking for pern competency, originality, and a responsible player.

Best of luck -- I hope to see you on WoP soon!

I do understand about the BoD- I've been one enough at Weyrs to know. :D
Yes, I saw the backdated clutch- quite useful to me, too. she's almost done. :)
This is a well-created weyr Renn, you've done yourself well. :clap: :bow:

Just to double check for the clutch:
It'd be: Fort Weyr 6 gold Ashiberuth bronze Kevidath second clutch
Right?

You got it. :) And don't worry if you mix the clutches up -- the character creation page will double-check to make sure your dragon's age and clutch match correctly.
