ALL THANKSGIVING TRIPS ARE OFFICIALLY CANCELED! ALL CURRENT INTERACTIONS SHOULD STOP NOW!

This is an emergency alert! Cotton Plant, Arkansas is officially on lockdown. A massive storm has just swept through the town, and everyone must stay put, exactly where they are until further notice. Strong winds have knocked over a near by cell tower, so you’ll notice that your cell phone is not currently working, but don’t worry, no matter where you are, there is an emergency supply kit.

Supply kits include, sleeping bags, pillows, blankets, water bottles, first aid kits, flashlights, and enough food to last until the lockdown is over. When the storm hit, residence of the town ran to the closest building to take shelter, so if your character is in a place they would not normally go, that’s okay. There will be no leaving these locations until further stated. 

This post applies to all players. Everyone will be involved in this plot, other than those who are currently on full hiatus, and will remain on full hiatus for the entirety of the event. Please note, all acceptances have been paused until the event is over, this includes fc/family changes.

Below you will find groups, please look through the groups to find your character(s) this is where they are located for the start of the event. The people in the group with them are the ONLY people they can interact with during THE START of the event. Paras, FTFs and dash convos with the people in your group are the only form of communication allowed during the start of this event.

Please be aware that there are over 100 characters in this group, we attempted to match people up in order to create an opportunity for new connections. If your character was left off the list (unless they are on hiatus), or two of your characters are in a group together, please let us know, otherwise, these groups are final. Any trips that were planned for Thanksgiving or during this time will need to take place after the lockdown is lifted. Stay tuned throughout the week for updates.

Please find your group(s) below, and make sure that any posts you make throughout the event have the tag that is included next to the location. Each location has power, but no cell service, no wifi, no phones. All locations also have an ample amount of food and water to last until the lockdown is lifted.

Please note: We know that many characters have pets, but for the purpose of this event please disregard pets, we don’t want characters to worry about their pet. The only exception is service animals which should be with the character, assume they have food and water, and can go outside a few times a day to use the bathroom. 

WHEN YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS, PLEASE REPLY WITH YOUR CHARACTER’S GROUP NUMBER TO LET US KNOW!
